Combustion Air - Ambi Fire TAURUS FG Instructions Pour L'installation

4. Suitable Fuel

Suitable fuel is chopped logs that are about 50-60 cm in length and up to 10 cm in diameter in the amount of 1 pieces. (2,5kg)

Observe the maximum amount of fuel according to the output of the wood burning stove (1kW = 0.3 kg/h). In the short-term
(max. 90 min), an overload up to 120% of rated output is possible.

Amaximum humidity of 20% of air-dried logs can be achieved after a minimum of one-year (softwood) or two-year (hardwood)
drying time.

If the wood humidity is higher than 20%, the output of the wood burning stove decreases.

The burning of moist wood releases water that condenses on the walls of the wood burning stove and the chimney, thereby
increasing tar and water vapour formation which reduces their lifetime. In severe cases, a chimney fire may even occur.

The burning of waste and especially of plastics is prohibited under the Act on Emissions. In addition, such fuel damages the
fireplace and the chimney while it canlead to damage to one's health and also bother neighbours due to the smell.

Liquid fuels must not be used in the appliance.
5. Main Principles of Use
 Correct heating in the stove is achieved by burning less fuel and stoke more frequently (approx. each 50 min).
 Put fuel as close as possible to the centre of the fireplace where the fire has itsoptimal air supply.
 It is essential to have about 2 cm of burning ash while re-fueling stove

Put fuel side by side with sufficient gaps to make the fuel burn as optimally as possible.

Remove any ash from the fireplace and ashtray before each lighting.

Wood burning exceeding the maximum amount can result in damage to components inside the stove or the whole stove
thusinvalidating the warranty.
6. Lighting Up and Stoking
 If the stove was stored in a cold environment (car, store, etc.) before the first lighting, keep it at room temperature for about 3
hours due to moisture condensation and surface temperature equalization of the parts before making the first lighting, otherwise
there is a risk of damage to the glass or lining of the stove.

During the first lighting, it is not possible to prevent the odour produced by the drying of the protective coating. The stove paint
will burn for at least 4 hours. Therefore, it is necessary to constantly ventilate and let fresh air into the room.

The rapid course of lighting is important as there is an increase in emissions in the event of a poor technique.
a. Open the air supply control completely.
b. Place a scrunched up newspaper or a firelighter in the centre of the fireplace and put about 2–2,5 kg of finely chopped
wood crosswise over it. You may have rough on the bottom part and mild in upper part (you may use solid fire starter
instead of paper)
c. Ignite the fire and let it flame up.
d. Then put 2 logs on the fire (approx. 2–2.5 kg). After they start burning well, reduce the combustion air supply to 75%.
e. After all fuel is burned out (no visible flame - only burning ash stays) rake out burning ash equally (rather to back part
of combustion chamber) and open air regulation completly
f. Then put 1 logs on the fire (approx. 2,5 kg). After they start burning well, reduce the combustion air supply to 25%.
g. Once the fuel has burned out (the flame goes out – only embers remain), spread the embers evenly and open the air
supply completely.
h. Repeat point d. and point e.
 If too little wood is used during lighting or if the pieces of wood are too large, the optimal operating temperature will not be
reached. This can lead to poor combustion, high soot formation and the extinguishing of the fire after closing the door.

Do not leave the stove unattended at the time of lighting.

If your house has a mechanical ventilation system or if an extractor hood is switched on and there is low pressure inside, open the
window near the stove for a few minutes until the fire flames up.

For heating at a minimum output, reduce the combustion air supply to 5% (point f). Heat input at the minimum output is 3,44 kW
and the burning time is about 3,1 hrs.

7. Combustion Air

 The wood burning stove is dependent on ambient air and a combustion air supply needs to be provided when taking the
combustion air from the room.
 In case the windows and doors are sealed, fresh air supply may not be ensured. This can affect the draught of the stove and it can
also unfavourably affect your sense of well-being or even your safety.

Vapour extractors located in the same room as the stove may adversely affect its function (smoke can escape into an occupied
room although the stove door is closed) and must therefore not be operated at the same time as the stove unless the air supply is
provided via an open window.

The stove has the possibility of supplying combustion air from the central air duct via a 99 mm diameter connection neck. The
connection neck is located at the bottom of the stove under the fireplace.
longer than 3 m and have too many bends. The minimum duct diameter is 80 mm.

The central air duct must be led outdoors or into a well-ventilated room inside the building (cellar, utility room, etc.).
To ensure a central air supply, the duct must not be
