5.3 Experience establishes control settings to suit personal
preferences

and use the Airwash to control the burn rate when

• Wood burns best on a bed of ash
• Rake the embers evenly over the fire bed and open the
Airwash control fully for a few minutes before re-fuelling
4.2 Burn new logs at high output for a few minutes before
adjusting the Airwash control. Refuel little and often for
clean, efficient burning.
4.3 Experience establishes settings to suit personal preferences.
4.4 Do not burn large amounts of fuel with the Airwash control
closed for long periods of time. This reduces the glass
cleaning effect and causes tars and creosotes to build-up in
the appliance and flue system.
4.5 When in use, burning the appliance at high output for a
short period also reduces tars and creosote.
