INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on purchasing a genuine Scandia Wood heater. When cared for properly, these high quality,  
finely crafted wood heaters will offer many years of reliable performance. This instruction manual has been 
developed to ensure optimum performance from your Scandia wood heater. It’s very important that you 
thoroughly read and understand all instructions before using your new wood heater.

COUNCIL REQUIREMENTS

Check Local Council Requirements Eg. permits

When installing, operating and maintaining your wood heater, follow the guidelines presented in these instructions,  
and make them available to anyone using or servicing the wood heater.
Your city, town, state or territory may require a building permit to install a solid fuel burning appliance.
Always consult your local building inspector or local council to determine what regulations apply in your area.

Your wood heater must be installed by a qualified person whose 
work conforms with local council regulations, Australian standards 

&

 manufacturers recommendations. Failure to do so will void your 

warranty and could possibly void any home insurance.
