Combustion air supply

The wood-burning stove may only be installed in rooms with a sufficient supply of combustion air. It is
guaranteed in rooms that have at least one door or window leading to the external environment that can be
opened or that are directly or indirectly interconnected with other rooms, forming a combustion air unit
with them. Such a unit only comprises rooms of one apartment or commercial unit.
THE WOOD-BURNING STOVE REQUIRES APPROX. 15 - 40 M³/H OF COMBUSTION AIR (see Table
1.1 Technical specifications and dimensions ).
In the case of new, insulated houses and mainly houses with
mechanical ventilation it is important to supply enough
combustion air. The wood-burning stove has a central connection
(from the bottom or from the back) used to supply enough air
directly to the combustion process. It means that you can provide
air via a connection pipe from exteriors*, utility rooms, etc.. The
air supplied this way can be directly controlled on the stove with a
combustion air slider.
*When connecting to an external air supply (from the outside), it is recommended to install double-acting flap
with a silicone cuff with possibility of closing air supply. This will prevent corrosion due to moisture condensation
when the fireplace is not in use. The warranty does not cover damage caused by corrosion!

Primary air is used to control combustion air from the bottom that flows through the ashpan and the grate into
the stove. Therefore, do not let the ashpan get completely filled with ashes as the ashes might prevent the supply
of combustion air.
Secondary air controls the air quantity that is necessary to burn mainly the flammable products that are generated
in the combustion chamber during burning of wood. A certain part of secondary air that flows from the top to the
door minimizes soiling of the glass (air cleaning of the door).
As soon as the stove is heated up after the firing, close the primary air supply. Then, you can control the
combustion intensity with the secondary air only.
The grate control is used to open and close the grate.
