1. WELCOME TO YOUR ESSE Welcome to the ESSE family. We’ve poured all of our knowledge, expertise and passion for designing and manufacturing market leading stoves, dating back to 1854, into producing your ESSE stove. All ESSE stoves are manufactured at our factory in Barnoldswick, Lancashire, and we’re confident that if appropriately installed, maintained and cared for, your ESSE stove will provide you with many years of room heating, comfort and joy.

3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CO ALARM Your installer should have ensured that you have a Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarm fitted, in the same room as your ESSE stove. This is a requirement of the BS EN 50292:2013 standard, and you should make sure that you are familiar with the operation of this essential piece of equipment. VENTILATION All stoves require a consistent supply of ‘combustion air’, to allow for the combustion of the fire.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS For best results, we recommend your wood logs are cut to a length of 300mm, and a diameter / width of 70mm. COMBUSTION AIR AND AIRWASH ESSE stoves are designed to achieve the most efficient heat outputs, with the ‘cleanest burn’. To achieve this, significant research and development investment has been given to how to provide appropriate levels of ‘combustion air’ to the correct parts of the fire, at the correct time of the burn cycle.

3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS LIGHTING YOUR ESSE STOVE When your ESSE stove is first lit, it may smoke or give off an odour. This is quite normal, as the materials used within its manufacture are heated up for the first time. These symptoms will stop within a short period, but ensure that the room is well ventilated during this ‘settling in’ process. You may hear ‘ticking noises’ for a short period each time the stove is lit.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS We recommend a maximum load of wood logs of 2.1Kg / hour, which when stacked in the firebox, should not sit above the row of Tertiary Air holes, located at the rear of the firebox. The door should only be opened during the initial lighting and refuelling of your ESSE stove. If left open during normal operation, you may experience excessive smoke emitting into your room.
