WELCOME
to the HERGÓM family. We would like to thank you for the distinction you have made
by choosing our SHELBURNE WOOD BURNING STOVE.
All of its parts are made of cast iron to guarantee a long working life.
We are sure your new stove will give you satisfaction on many occasions, which is the
greatest attraction of our equipment.
Owning a Hergóm Stove is a sign of an exception sense of quality.
Please read all of the manual. Its aim is to familiarise you with your stove, indicating
standards for its installation, operating and maintenance that will be very useful to you.
Please keep it and consult when necessary. If after reading this manual you require
any further information, please do not hesitate to contact your normal supplier or to call
the factory directly.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the fireplace is not suitably installed, the excellent services for
which it has been designed will not be given. Please ready these instruction fully and
entrust the work to a specialist.
Your Cast Iron Stove is protected on the inside with an anti-calorific paint especially for
high temperatures. When the stove is lit for the first few times, it is normal for a slight
amount of smoke to be produced when some of its components evaporate, giving the
paint body. We therefore recommend you ventilate the room until this disappears.
