Troubleshooting
Installation
(Continued)
•
Smoke entering the room from the firebox when the door is open may be caused by
•
Insufficient length of flue (flue to be 4500mm minimum underneath the base of heater to
underside of cowl)
Increase height of flue
•
Flue downdraught
Consult dealer or increase height of flue.
•
Creosote buildup in flue
Remove cowl and clean flue as per cleaning instructions. Check moisture content of wood.
•
Excessive ash build up
some woods will give large amounts of ash despite how you run the heater. Others will give you very little.
Use the wood which is most convenient for you as long as it is dry. After a period of time you will get to
know when to empty your unit. Bark will give you excessive ash. Try not to burn it.
If you are burning wood that gives you charcoal, you may find that after running the heater say for 8 hours
at maximum burn rate, the charcoal builds up excessively. Overnight burn will reduce this charcoal back to
a fine ash. If you are not ready to shut down for overnight burn when you next fuel the stove, load the
stove with only one piece of wood and lay it across the firebox on top of the charcoal. Open the air control
wide open and you will find the charcoal will burn down with the one piece of wood. Repeat the process
until the ash level is significantly reduced.
