Interruption of operation

Smoke spillage around door
could be due to too low draught in the chimney <12Pa
• check whether the flue or chimney is blocked
• check whether the extraction hood (kitchen) is switched on; if it is, switch it off
and open a window/door in the proximity of the stove for a short while.
Soot on glass
could be caused by the firewood is too wet.
• make sure that the stove is heated properly when firing up, prior to closing the
door
Stove is burning too strong
could be caused by:
• leak around the door seal
• chimney draught too large >22 Pa, draught control regulator should be installed.
Stove is burning too weakly
could be caused by:
• too small amount firewood
• too little air supply for room ventilation
• unclean smoke channels
• leaky chimney
• leakage between chimney and flue
Low draught in chimney
could be caused by
• temperature difference is to small, e.g. due to poorely insulated fluepipe
• outdoor temperature is high e.g.in the summer
• no wind
• chimney is too short or is on the lee side
• false air draught in chimney
• chimney or flue pipe is blocked
• high-density housing (lack of fresh air intake)
• negative smoke draught (poor condition)
In case of cold chimney or difficult weather conditions you can compensate by adding
more fresh air (open the damper) to the stove than usual.
If your stove continues to malfunction, we recommend that you contact your RAIS
distributor or chimney sweep.
