In practice, the chimney draft will differ – especially in cold condition. Therefore, the best indication of the
chimney draft is to measure the draft when it is hot. If the chimney sweep judges the draft to be sufficient, but
you still have problems lighting a fire, try extending the fire lighting phase by using more thin pieces of
kindling and 1-2 firelighters, so that the chimney gets thoroughly warm. The chimney will not draw at
optimum effect until it is warm. When a layer of embers has been formed, add 2-3 dry logs.
If it is impossible to establish a sufficiently natural chimney draft, the chimney can be fitted with a smoke
exhauster, e.g. Aduro DraftOptimizer.
4.2 Chimney and Smoke
If you experience smoke coming out of the stove or the start section of the smoke pipe, it could be due to
certain weather conditions. On stormy or cold winter days or if the chimney has not been used in a while, a
cold plug can be created in the chimney, meaning the natural draft will be at its minimum.
If the chimney is cold and cold plugs are created, you may experience smoke leaks during the ignition and
startup phase. In this situation there can be more smoke than usually in the combustion chamber and some
of it might leak out of the stove. Therefore, if you have a cold chimney that has not been used for a while, we
recommend that you use some wood sticks to heat the chimney and eliminate the cold plug.

cold.
Combustion chamber
The fireproof tiles in the combustion chamber eventually wear out and should be replaced when the cracks
are more than 0.5 cm. The durability of the tiles depends on how often and how intensively the stove is used.
You can change the tiles yourself. They are available as a ready-to-use set. For further information, go to

How do I remove the Bauart spring?
All Aduro stoves are fitted with a "Bauart" safety spring. The mechanism ensures that the door of the stove
closes automatically. The "Bauart" spring is only a law requirement in Germany.
How to remove it:
•
If you wish to remove or replace the spring with a new one it is possible to cut the spring using a
pincer. It is advisable to hold the spring with pliers or cover it with a cloth or other device to absorb
the tension, as the pieces might spring out right after the cut.
•
Please note that the spring is in tension when the door opens, so make sure to protect yourself
during fitting and removal.
