HETAS Approval does not cover the use of other fuels eitheralone or mixed with the wood logs, nor does it cover instructions for the use of otherfuels.FuelThe stove is designed and approved in accordance with EN 13240 and NS 3058 forstoking split, dried firewood. The firewood must have a water content of 15-22% and itsmax. length should be the length of the combustion chamber minus 50-60 mm.Stoking with wet firewood causes both soot, environmental pollution and bad fueleconomy. Freshly cut wood contains approx. 50-70% water and is thoroughly unsuitablefor stoking. Allow at least 1 year of storage time for newly cut wood before using. Woodwith a diameter of more than 100 mm should be split. Regardless of wood size, it shouldalways have at least one surface area free of bark.We do not recommend stoking with painted, laminated or impregnated wood, wood witha synthetic surface, painted refuse wood, chipboard, plywood, domestic waste, paperbri-quettes and pit coal, as this will produce malodorous smoke, which could bepoisonous.When firing with the above-mentioned items and amounts larger than thoserecommended, the stove is subjected to a larger amount of heat, which results in ahigher chimney temperature and lower efficiency. This can result in the stove andchimney becoming damaged and would void the warranty.The calorific value of the firewood is closely connected to the moisture level.Moist firewood has a low heat value. The more water the wood contains, the moreenergy it takes for this water to vaporise, resulting in this energy being lost.
