User manual WANDERS SQUARE BLACK EDITION

[. . . ] Dear Client, Congratulations on your new wood-burning stove, which will be a comfortable source of heat to enjoy for many years on end. When designing this fireplace we took particular care regarding the ease of use, the operational safety and the design. The Square is developed and produced at our own factory in Netterden (the Netherlands) and is for the greater part handmade. Only the best materials are used for the construction and comply with current international standards. [. . . ] Softer woods like spruce, fir and poplar give more flames but less heat and less charcoal. The best place to store timber is in a windy spot but sheltered from the rain. This is how the logs can dry in a natural way. Pile the logs on an old pallet or a frame to let the wood dry from underneath and to prevent the lower logs from being in contact with water. Gasses which consequently develop will deposit on and burn in the glass of your stove and cannot be removed later. Do not use any wood that is painted, impregnated, glued together or processed in any other way. The flue gases are very harmful to the environment and may affect your stove. It is also prohibited to burn plastics and other waste matter due to poisonous smoke development. After the fire is extinguished, the chimney and the stove must be inspected again by your installer. the chimney is the most important part of your woodburning hearth. When the chimney is right it will not distribute any smoke into your room, leave any deposit on the glass pane or create bad combustion. Before starting the installation of the stove, your installer or a qualified chimney sweep must check whether the chimney flue has a diameter of at least 150 millimetres over the entire length, and whether the channel is clean, smooth and leak-proof.
