stabilised, the air supply can be restricted slightly (near the centre position).

4.6 CHIMNEY FIRE

The combustion of wood (especially coniferous wood) will cause sparks to travel

from the fireplace into the chimney. This may ignite the soot in the chimney. (this

rarely happens if the chimney is cleaned regularly by the chimney sweep). The

chimney catches fire. This can be recognized by flames that blaze from the chimney

opening, excessively flying sparks, smoke and odors, as well as the chimney walls

becoming progressively hotter. It is important to act properly in such cases. You can

alert the fire brigade by dialling 999 (or 112 in Germany). The chimney sweep must

also be informed. Combustible objects should be located away from the chimney.

Attention: Do not attempt to extinguish the fire with water before the fire brigade

arrives on the scene. Temperatures in a chimney fire can reach up to 1300°C. Extin-

guishing water would immediately create steam. A 10-litre bucket of water yields 17

cubic meters of steam. The enormous pressure created as a result could cause the

chimney to disintegrate. After the chimney has burned out, this is to be examined by

an expert for cracks or leaks and to be repaired if necessary.

5. FUEL

Only those fuels listed in the BlmSchV (German Federal Emissions Protection

Ordnance) may be burned in stoves. Only wood logs (recommended residual

moisture of 20% or less) or wood briquettes according to DIN 51731 are

permitted for stoves. Incidentally: A measuring instrument for determining the

moisture content of firewood is cheap and it quickly pays for itself.

Do not use any other fuels!

It follows from this that it is not permitted to burn:

• painted or plastic-coated wood

• Fibreboard or wood that has been treated with timber preservative

• Wood that comes from Euro pallets

• Rubbish, household waste, old clothes

• Paper, paper briquettes, cardboard

• Coal, coal briquettes, lignite

• Damp wood (residual humidity > 25%)

• Plastic or foam of any kind

• any solid or liquid materials that contain no wood

It is prohibited to burn these or other inappropriate materials in your stove.

When burning other materials than the permitted fuels, wood logs or wood

briquettes defined in DIN 51731, toxic gases can be formed that have

an adverse effect on the combustion process, and that may even cause

explosions.

Operating stoves with other than the approved fuels renders the warranty

invalid!

Use small bits of wood for beginning to heat. For firewood, use only split wood

that is not thicker than about 8 cm at its thickest point. The optimum length is

approximately 25 cm. Please do not add too much wood at one time. Instead,

it is better to add smaller quantities of wood at regular intervals. When adding

fuel, the embers must not be completely covered.

5.1 CO2 NEUTRALITY

Wood only emits as much carbon dioxide as it had previously incorporated

when it was a living tree. It is immaterial whether the wood burns or rots in

the forest – the carbon dioxide output always remains constant. This creates

a closed natural carbon cycle.

Conclusion: When burning wood, nature remains in balance. German Law

legislates for the sustainable management of forests. This obligation leads to

an increase in timber volumes, since the average increase in timber is 40%

greater than the amount of firewood and timber that is consumed.
