5. STOKING UP FOR THE FIRST TIME
If you have had your chimney breast modified or newly built, first allow your
home to dry properly. Walls which have not been allowed to dry properly are a
magnet for dust such as any smoke particles created when stoking up the fire or
suddenly opening the door. Even scorched dust can easily be retained by damp
walls. Think also of dust on the outside of the appliance or on hot radiators etc.
Check that all packaging, stickers etc. and/or all dust and waste has been
cleaned up after the installation work (to avoid it getting scorched/causing a bad
smell).
Check again that all moving parts are in order and that loose parts such as the
retardant plate (brake plate), flue gas flap, interior panels, grate etc. are in the
correct position. They may have moved during installation.
The stove has a heat-proof finish. It only hardens at high temperatures. When
unpacked, it is therefore not fully hardened. It can easily be damaged at this
time.
Begin stoking up the fire with a low flame (see section 6). Increase the heat
gradually for approx. 2
H
ours until you reach the correct output. Keep it at this
level for another 2 - 3 hours. The finish will now be properly hardened and can
be touched without damaging. The hardening process creates a nasty, though
harmless, smell/vapour.
Check at the start of the heating season that the flue/chimney is not blocked, for
example by a bird’s nest.
Adequate ventilation is of the utmost importance.
