[. . . ] At the same time, the manufacturing process is subject to external quality control. Asgård 7F also carries the Nordic Swan Eco-label, which guarantees that the wood burning stove complies with the most stringent environmental requirements and has been manufactured in an environmentally correct manner. 1. 2 Technical data Nominal power: Chimney draught Maximum combustion amount per hour: - Wood approx. Heat rating in buildings with: Optimum insulation: Average insulation: Inadequate insulation: Flue outlet, diameter: Weight: 132 kg. [. . . ] The stove is placed in position and the flue pipe is put in place. A thin gasket is placed between the flue pipe and the pipe sleeve to seal the joints. The flue pipe should protrude 5–10 cm into the pipe sleeve, but must not block the opening in the chimney (see the illustration below). X The wood burning stove can be connected to a chimney to which other heat sources are connected. 4. 0 Lighting a fire in the wood burning stove 4. 1 Important safety information • The wood burning stove will become warm during use and therefore it should be treated with all necessary caution. -4- • • • • Never keep easily combustible fluids such as petrol in the vicinity of the wood burning stove – and never use easily combustible fluids to light the fire in the wood burning stove. Never empty the ash drawer when the wood burning stove is warm. Embers may still be found in the ash drawer for up to 24 hours after the fire has gone out. Please wait to empty the ash drawer until you are sure that there are no embers in the ash. The door should be kept closed while the wood burning stove is in use. While lighting the fire, the door can stand ajar for the first few minutes. In the event of a chimney fire: Close all the dampers on the wood burning stove and call the firefighting service. 4. 2 Recommended fuels?We recommend the use of split hardwood that has been stored outdoors under cover for at least 1 year. When there are distinct, visible flames and the fire has taken hold, close the primary air intake/damper. Important: The control handle will get warm when the wood burning stove is being used. Please use the glove provided when you operate the wood burning stove. 4. 4 The first time a fire is lit The first few times the wood burning stove is used, there may be some smoke and unpleasant odours from the wood burning stove, which is fairly normal. This is caused by the heat-resistant paint hardening. Make sure there is sufficient ventilation during this stage. It is also important not to let the fire burn too fiercely the first 2–3 times, so that the wood burning stove has time to expand slowly. You should also be aware that the stove may make clicking sounds as it heats up and cools down – rather like pouring boiling water into a sink. These are caused by the great differences in temperature to which the materials are being exposed. During the first firing, which should be carried out using approximately 1 kg of wood, the stoking door must be left slightly open and must not be closed until the stove is cold. This is to prevent the sealing rope sticking to the stove. -5- 4. 5 How should I use my wood burning stove?
