FIRE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY!
5 Eco-friendly advices for sensible heating
- common sense both environmentally and economically.
1. Effective lighting. Use small pieces of wood (fir tree) and
a suitable fire lighter, for example paraffined wood wool/
sawdust. Open the air damper, so plenty of air is fed to the
stove and the gases from the heated wood can burn rap-
idly.
2. Light the fire with only little wood at a time - this gives the
best combustion. Remember plenty of air for every time
new wood is added.
3. When the flames are diminished, adjust the air damper so
that the air supply is reduced.
4. When only glowing embers remain, air flow can be re-
duced further, so heating demand is just covered. With a
lower air supply the charcoal will burn slower and the heat
loss through the chimney is reduced.
5. Use only dry wood - ie wood with a humidity of 15 to 22
percent.
RECYCLING:
The oven is wrapped in packaging that is recyclable. This
must be disposed of according to national rules regard-
ing the disposal of waste.
The glass can not be reused.
The glass should be discarded along with the residual
waste from ceramics and porcelain.
Pyrex glass has a higher melting temperature and there-
fore can not be reused.
If discarded you make an important positive contribution
to the environment.
