Cleaning The Glass; General Information - Ferlux DENIA Instructions D'installation

VENTILATION
WARNING! VERY IMPORTANT
It is dangerous to overheat the appliance
Never light the fire when the room contains combustible gases.
Smoke may emerge from the appliance on lighting the fire if, for example, the ventilation system causes draw-down in the room where it is located. This generally occurs in
rooms equipped with CMV (Conventional Mechanical Ventilation) air extraction systems (cooker hoods, etc.)
Operation of a chimney equipped with a closed fireplace or insert requires an additional supply of air to that necessary for the regulation air renewal (Spanish
order of 24 March 1982).
It is advisable to check that the air required for combustion may be taken in sufficient quantity from the room in which the fireplace is located. If the stove is installed in a
closed compartment, decompression grilles must be installed on the upper and lower area from equipment to allow air circulation by natural convection inside the chamber and
ensure proper supply of oxygen for combustion. Models with air intake from outside have a lower ring which must be connected the air intake duct.
Note: distribution of the hot air
Great care must be taken in the case of new buildings designed for electrical-type heating, which are heavily insulated and, above all, well sealed. Insufficient ventilation and lack
of oxygen in the room can cause malfunctions and can even prevent any heat being released.
Hot air cannot move or form a circuit unless the air can circulate.
Insufficient ventilation of rooms and of passage of air between them makes them unhealthy, causing smells, condensation, humidity and mould.
Installing accessories or additional appliances not supplied by ourselves may affect the performance of the fireplace. Please consult your local health regulations.
ADVICE ON MAINTENANCE
ASH
Ash must be removed whenever necessary by emptying the ash pan. Ash and cinders must not be allowed to fill the ash pan and come into contact with the grate:
- firstly because the grate would not cool down and could rapidly be damaged
- and also because it would affect the circulation of the combustion air.
Place the ash and cinders removed from the fireplace into a metal-container with a close-fitting lid. The container must be placed on a fire-proof floor away from combustible
materials until the cinders are completely extinguished and cold.

CLEANING THE GLASS

The glass must be cleaned while the fireplace is still warm.
Various commercially available products are easy to use and facilitate the removal of deposits. Follow the instructions carefully.
Do not use abrasive products
If the glass needs replacing, remove the screws holding it place. Re-use the insulating and cushioning gaskets.
The new glass must be special high temperature (750ºC) glass of the 'vitroceramic' or 'vision' type. Do not use any other materials or types of glass.
Try not to bang the door shut, use the handle to close it. For appliances with upward-opening doors, keep hold of the door until it is fully open.
Do not lay the fire too close to the glass.
Do not use the appliance if the glass is broken.
Do not use flammable liquids, fats or any unsuitable fuel.
CREOSOTE REMOVAL – HOW IT FORMS AND HOW TO CLEAN IT
When wood burns slowly it gives off organic vapours and tar-like by-products that react with the steam released by the wood and create a build-up of creosote on the walls of
a relatively cold chimney.
If these build-ups burn or catch fire they can cause an extremely hot fire.
Creosote build-up should be checked daily until you are familiar with the fireplace as used in your case and can tell how frequently it needs to be cleaned.
Remember that the greater the combustion the less creosote builds up, so it may be necessary to clean the appliance every week in mild weather but only every two months
during very cold spells. The chimney should be inspected every two months to check the creosote build-up over that time and, if necessary, remove it.
To avoid daily creosote formation and prevent build-ups, we recommend a hot fire from time to time with the fireplace door closed.
Only use suitable equipment for cleaning your chimney and ensure that others do likewise.
Sweep the chimney twice a year.
Lubricate the HINGES at least twice a year. The grease used for lubrication should be resistant to high temperatures.
FITTING THE PIECES OF CERAMIC: In case you need to adjust the pieces of ceramic, to keep them firmly fastened, follow the instructions given in Section VI (Only for
models Denia, Granada and Nerja – cerámica –).

GENERAL INFORMATION

Consult your local authority building inspector, fire brigade or insurance agent to find out what regulations are applicable in your area. They will also be able to inform you
about inspections of your installation. The maintenance of models must be done by qualified person.
Read these instructions carefully before installing the appliance. Mistakes can cause damage to people and property.
Keep these instructions.
I - FUEL AND ADDING MORE FUEL
Denia, Granada, Valle, Brito, Dúrcal, Belén, Marta, Rossy, Nerja, Forno, NOA, L, C, A, IGNIS, ELYPSE stoves have been designed to use only firewood. The usage of
any other fuel, even only for lighting, will cancel the guarantee. The manufacturer won't be responsible of any damage caused for the usage of unsuitable fuel.
The models works with intermittent combustion.
To obtain the rated heat capacity of the appliance, use only wood that has been dried for a minimum of 2 years.
To obtain efficient working of the fireplace, use only wood that has been dried for a minimum of 2 years. It is advisable to use dried firewood from beech, holm oak, olive tree or
any other with similar caloric features. Hardwoods are preferred to softwoods such as poplar, willow, aspen, etc.
Only use dry wood with less than 20% humidity. Green wood produces less heat and more creosote. Green wood and wet wood also suffocate the fire and lead to abnormal
creosote build-up, which can cause chimney fires.
Solid mineral fuels such as coal etc. must not be used. Neither must tropical woods such as mahogany, framire, okabe, etc. The use of chemicals or liquids such as oil,
alcohol, fuel oil, naphthalene, etc. as fuels or fire-lighters is also forbidden.
Do not use the appliance as an incinerator.
When adding more fuel, make sure that the ashtray is enough empty to let the natural air going through and not destroy the grill/base.
When inserting firewood, handle the door gently.
The maximum height of logs inside the firebox must not exceed 30 cm.
Before loading for a slow fire, allow the flames to die down; do not load on top of embers that are too bright.
II - OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOOR
When using the stove, when there is lit, opening and closing the door should be done slowly. Otherwise it could cause a sudden imbalance in the combustion with unwanted
effects, even expelling fumes and embers outside.
To open the door, lift the handle up and pull it towards you.
To close the door, lift the handle up and push the door till resting on the appliance, then lower the handle to lock it.
IMPORTANT: When the stove is working or is still hot, use suitable protection for opening and closing the door (such as gloves or a hook)
