Only use dry and clean wood for combustion in the wood-burning stove.
Maximum size of logs used in the stove is up to 30 cm in length and 10 cm in
diameter.
Only use dry wood. The burning of waste, synthetic materials and other
treated or impregnated materials is not allowed as it is very hazardous to the
environment. Furthermore the stove and the chimney will be damaged by
these materials. There is a danger of emission of unhealthy substances which
can also lead to complaints from neighbours.
Dry and clean wood has a maximum of 20% water which is achieved with
outdoor storage for between 1 year (soft wood) and 2 years (hard wood). The
wood must be in contact with air during storage so the moisture can get out of
the wood.
Firewood is not meant to ”burn overnight”. Never close off the airflow
completely, instead let the fire die out and light it again when you need it.
We warn against closing off the airflow completely. The wood-burning stove
can only burn sensibly and environmentally friendly if there is sufficient airflow
for the combustion.
Cleaning and checks
The wood-burning stove and the smoke pipe should be checked and cleaned
once a year.
The chimney must also be cleaned by the chimney sweep who will set the
necessary intervals for cleaning / sweeping.
The wood-burning stove should be checked by a professional about once a
year.
Combustion air
Combustion air is a precondition for a good and clean combustion.
The air is normally taken from the room where the wood-burning stove is
mounted, however in some circumstances it may be necessary to provide extra
air in the room where the stove is placed. This can e.g. be done by mounting
an air valve in the room’s outer wall. Air valves that supply necessary
combustion air must be kept free from blockage.
An exhaust fan in the same room or close to the wood-burning stove can also
have a negative effect on the combustion (at worst it can lead to exhaust
gases in the room, even with the stove door closed). Therefore, in the above
case, the wood-burning stove and the exhaust fan must never be in use at the
same time.
The TT10 models are available with combustion air branch. Ask your dealer for
further information.
