5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

For cleaning, also comply with the instructions in the operating manual 
of the fireplace inserts. The instructions in this installation and operating 
manual refer only to the cleaning of the heat exchanger of the Nova F. Bear 
in mind that through cleaning, contamination of the setup room and the 
clothing worn can occur. We recommend that you protect the area around 
the fireplace insert opening against contamination with foil or with a cloth. 

5.1 CLEANING THE DOUBLE GLAZING

The operator must only clean the double glazing on the combustion chamber 
side and the setup room side in accordance with the instructions in the 
operating manual. If the inner panes in the hollow space are contaminated, 
then cleaning must only be executed by the customer service organisation 
or a trained specialised company. In operation, a slight bright shimmer may 
be seen between the glass panes. However these deposits do not constitute 
grounds for complaint.

6. FUEL

The „Wald in Not“ (Forest in Peril) Foundation formulates this aptly in an 
informative brochure: „Wood does not run up debts with nature. Wood is 
stored solar energy. Sunlight, water and carbon dioxide are the building 
blocks that make wood. During the lifetime of the tree, sunlight is chemi-
cally captured. Solar energy is stored in lignin and cellulose. When the 
wood is burned, that energy is released again.“ For further information visit 
the www.wald-in-not.de website. Heating inserts must only be operated 
with fuels that meet the requirements specified in the First Ordinance on 
the Implementation of the Federal  Immission Control Act (1. BImSchV). For 
the Renova and Nova heating inserts this includes only wood logs with a 
 residual moisture content of approx. 18% or less, or wood pellets in accord-
ance with DIN 51731. Do not use any other fuels!

It is not permitted to burn:
•  Varnished or plastic-coated wood
•  Chipboard or wood treated with timber preservatives
•  Wood from Euro Pool pallets
•  Rubbish, household waste, old clothes
•  Paper, paper briquettes, cardboard
•  Wet wood (residual moisture content over 20%)
•  Plastic or foam of any kind
•  Solid or liquid non-timber materials 

It is prohibited to burn these or other non-suitable materials in your heating 
insert. If the Nova or Renova heating insert is operated with non-approved 
fuels, the guarantee will be invalidated!

7. RATING PLATE

Due to the extremely high body temperature, the device‘s own rating plate 
is bonded on the air controller. However it is only accessible when the 
device floor is opened. See page 8/9, 2.4. Alternatively, the rating plate is 
presented below in an identical manner.
