1.4 Permissible and non-permissible fuels
Permissible fuels are natural-type logs of wood, dry and resin-free (beech, oak and birch), 20-25 cm long. The wood
should be seasoned for at least two years; the maximum recommended moisture content is 20%, in order to ensure
combustion without smoke and soot.
Do not use:
-
coal dust;
-
thinly cut pieces of wood (permissible only in the lighting stage);
-
bark and chips;
-
waste in general;
-
treated paper and cardboard;
-
wood treated with protective substances.
The burning of waste is prohibited according to European and national laws.
The burnt gases produced by the combustion of unsuitable materials can cause damage to the stove and
flues, and compromise your health.
The use of any fuel not complying with that specified above invalidates the warranty.
