3. FIRING THE FIRST TIME
The device is provided with a heat-resistant lacquer which is resistant to very high temperatures. During the first
hours there may be a more or less unpleasant smell caused by the burning of the paint, this is not dangerous. To do
this as quickly as possible, firing the device for several hours to burn and the room well ventilated.
3.1 Daily maintenance
* Avoid having a lot of dust and smoke particles from cigarettes, candles and oil lamps in the air of your home.
Heating of these particles by the convection system of the unit, can lead to discoloration of walls and ceilings.
Regularly remove any dust deposits with a vacuum cleaner.
* If the device is spilled, it should be stopped immediately. Only when the device has cooled sufficiently before
cleaning. Never use an abrasive, aggressive cleaning agents or fireplace cleaner, only a dry, lint-free cloth.
* By several dealers are also heat resistant spray paint available mountable, so that the annual maintenance for
small stains or areas of damage.
3.2 Important tips for heating with gas or wood burning stoves and fireplaces.
Prevent discoloration of walls and ceilings!
In any room there are always particles in the air as it is regularly vacuumed! These particles are clearly visible
in rays of sunlight. As long as the concentration of particles in the air remains, you will not suffer this experi-
ence. Only when these particles by any cause whatsoever in larger quantities through the room and particularly
if the extra air is polluted by soot and tar particles, caused by eg the burning of candles or oil lamps and smok
ing cigarettes or cigars, one can speak of a poor indoor climate! In a heated living space cooled air flows
slowly across the floor to the heater. In this air is always dust and other polluting particles that will leave de
posits on cold and often damp surfaces. Especially in a not yet dry construction (construction moisture) this
problem may arise. An undesirable outcome of such re-phenomenon could be discoloration of walls or ceil-
ings!
How can you prevent these problems?
* With a new build chimney or after rebuild to wait at least 6 weeks before going firing.
* The construction moisture must have disappeared from walls, floors and ceilings.
* The room where the unit is located should be well ventilated.
* The required air ventilation must be taken in accordance with local regulations.
* Make minimal use of candles and oil lamps and keep the taper as short as possible.
* These two "atmospherics" provide considerable quantities of polluting and unhealthy soot in your home.
* Cigarette and cigar smoke contains tar, which on heating on cold and damp walls will precipitate.
* When a poor internal climate phenomenon, although to a lesser extent, also above radiators and light fittings
and ventilation may occur.
