Choice Of Fuel - Nordpeis Salzburg M Manuel D'installation

Note that the air supply for the combustion also can
be too large and cause an uncontrollable fire that very
quickly heat up the whole hearth to an extremely high
temperature (when burning with a closed or nearly
closed door). For this reason you should never fill the
combustion chamber completely with wood.
It is recommended to keep an even fire with a small
amount of wood. If too many logs are put on the hot
ember, the air supply will not be sufficient for reaching
the require temperature, and the gases will be released
unburnt. For this reason it is important to increase the
air supply just after adding the logs in order to have
proper flames in the burn chamber so that the gases
are burnt.

Choice of Fuel

All types of wood, such as birch, beech, oak, elm, ash
and fruit trees, can be used as fuel in the stove. Wood
species have different degrees of hardness - the higher
the hardness of the wood, the higher the energy value.
Beech, oak and birch havest the highest degree of
hardness.
NB! We do not recommend the use of fuel briquettes /
compact wood in our combustion chambers, as these
products may develop significantly higher temperature
than the combustion chamber can withstand. Burning
briquettes / compact wood is at your own risk and can
cause invalidity of the warranty.
Warning:
NEVER use impregnated wood, painted wood,
plywood, chipboard, rubbish, milk cartons,
printed material or similar. If any of these items
are used as fuel the warranty is invalid.
Common to these materials is that they during
combustion can form hydrochloric acid and
heavy metals that are harmful to the environment,
you and the stove. Hydrochloric acid can also
corrode the steel in the chimney or masonry in
a masonry chimney. Also, avoid burning bark,
sawdust or other extremely fine wood, apart from
when lighting a fire. This form of fuel can easily
cause a flashover that can lead to temperatures
that are too high.
Warning: Make sure the stove is not overheated
- it can cause irreparable damage to the product.
Such damage is not covered by the warranty.
