Servicing
Always use a qualified service/heating engineer when
servicing is required. Use only authorised replacement
parts. Do not make unauthorised modifications.
Fume Emission Warning
Properly installed and operated, this stove will not emit
fumes.
Occasional fumes from de-ashing and re-fuelling may
occur but persistent fume emission must not be tolerated.
If fume emission does persist, then the following
immediate action should be taken:-
a. Open doors and windows to ventilate room.
b. Let the fire out or remove lit fuel from cooker.
c. Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if
required.
d. Do not attempt to re-light fire until cause of fume has
been identified and if necessary, seek professional
advice.
Fresh Air Kit
A fresh air kit enables you to use outside air, instead of
room air to fuel the fire. Using an outside source for
combustion air has its advantages. If your home is tight
and well insulated, the fire in the stove may be “starved”
of combustible air, it will be difficult maintaining a fire, and
you may have back drafting problems.
During the heating season, cold air (which is more dense
than warm air) will cause the fire to burn a little hotter,
resulting in more BTU’s from your wood, and less
creosote build-up. Please contact an authorized Heartland
dealer to purchase this option.
Understanding Combustion
Water: Up to half the weight of freshly cut logs is water.
After proper seasoning only about 20% of the weight is
wate. As the wood is heated in the firebox, this water boils
off, consuming heat energy in the wood, the more heat
energy is consumed. That is why wet wood hisses and
sizzles while dry wood ignites and burns easily.
Smoke (or flame): As the wood heats up above the
boiling point of water, it starts to smoke. The hydrocarbon
gases and tars that make up the smoke are combustible if
the temperature is high enough and oxygen is present.
When the smoke burns, it makes the bright flames that are
characteristic of a wood fire. If the smoke does not burn, it
will condense in the chimney forming creosote or exit the
chimney as air pollution.
Charcoal: As the fire progresses and most of the gases
have vaporized, charcoal remains. Charcoal is almost
100% carbon and burns with very little flame or smoke.
Charcoal is a good fuel that burns easily and cleanly when
enough oxygen is present. Of the total energy content of
the wood you burn, about half is in the form of smoke, and
half is charcoal.
