4.1 Risks of fire
The main parts of the Saey Peak, especially the door, front, upper side and fume conducts can become really
hot. A heat-resistant glove should be used for controlling the stove. Pay attention that all children keep a
safe distance from the stove.
4.2 Risks by badly sealed door
Make sure to seal the door in a good way so no fumes or smoke can escape in the living space.
Exhaust fumes and depression can form a reason so that smoke and other gas enters the living room.
Therefore pay attention never to open the front door before the wood has burnt completely down.
4.3 Risks of insufficient supply of air
Stoves need air to be able to burn, which they pull out of the living space. Therefore sufficient fresh air should
be supplied from outside. For the same reason, it is advised that all ventilation systems work on minimum
power, or even better, should be put off ( ventilation, kitchen hood… )
