2 The Stoves & Flue Guide to Choosing and Using Your Wood Burning Stove Introduction: Wood Burning and Multi-Fuel stoves are designed to be the very heart of your home and will give an elegant and stylish addition to any living area. If you are buying a new stove for the first time; looking for advice on maintenance or how to use your stove efficiently, the Stoves and Flue Guide to Choosing and Using Your Wood Burning Stove will provide you with all the right information. If this is your first look into the world of Wood Burning or Multi-fuel Stoves, it can all seem a little confusing. Whether you want to burn solid fuels such as logs, smokeless fuels or peat / turf briquettes, or have the switch on convenience of gas or electricity, Stoves & Flue offer a wide range of expertly crafted designs from contemporary to traditional, giving you the flexibility required for modern day living. Consider the role of the stove in your home some homeowners will purchase a stove to heat a certain room in the house; others may want to supply both their domestic hot water and central heating, while some may simply want to create a stunning focal point! Either way, there are many stoves in various shapes, sizes and fuel types that will not only satisfy your heating needs but are also aesthetically pleasing. Homeowners looking for a stove to heat up a particular area of the house should measure the proposed room first, in order to find out the size of the stove required. To work out the size of the stove you require, please visit our Stove Calculator at Gas stoves may be the perfect alternative for homeowners looking for ease and convenience. With their highly realistic coal or log fuel effects, the atmosphere created by modern gas stoves is exceptional. An electric stove can also open up new possibilities in your home; conservatory, kitchen, dining room, bedroom and hallway can all experience the warmth and character of a stove, with the extra convenience of just plugging the appliance in! Once you have considered the role of the stove in your home, you may want to consider the style of your appliance to suit the interior decor of your house. Whether you live in a modern city apartment or a traditional country cottage, we have a range of stoves to suit the outlook and the location of your home. Most of our stoves can also be selected in any of our colour options to suit your home and our website will provide you with the various colours available. Please see our Colour Chart at: Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 2
3 Fuel Types: Stoves & Flue offer a wide choice of traditional and contemporary wood burning, multi-fuel, gas and electric stoves. Homeowners choose their fuel type for many reasons some may choose a wood burner due to its carbon neutral benefits whilst others prefer the ease and convenience of a gas or an electric stove. With modern technology available, homeowners are no longer limited to certain stove models for their homes. Today, houses without a chimney can also benefit from our ranges. So, what is a wood burning stove? Why buy a wood burning stove? A wood burning stove is designed to specifically burn wood or logs rather than other solid fuels, as the airflow in the appliance has been specially constructed to get the best performance from wood. Internally, a wood burning stove does not have a grate or ash pan on the floor of the stove. If you plan to burn a combination of materials such as peat or turf briquettes and other smokeless fuels in your stove, consider a multi-fuel stove which has a riddling grate. Today, homeowners are considering buying a wood burning stove for many reasons. Owning a wood burning stove helps reduce household costs, especially with consistently rising gas and electricity prices. Depending on the heat output and the usage, a wood burning stove could use up to 150 worth of wood per year, but this amount will be significantly less than the cost of gas and electricity over the same period. Another reason to purchase a wood burning stove is the eco-friendly lifestyle choice it offers many homeowners. Wood is better in environmental terms, as the amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere is approximately the same as that absorbed by the tree during growth. This term is often referred to as the carbon neutral process. By using wood as your fuel source for your stove, you are in fact offsetting your carbon footprint and becoming carbon-neutral. Multi-Fuel Stoves: A multi-fuel stove means you are able to burn a combination of logs, smokeless fuels or peat or turf briquettes. Multi-fuel stoves also have a riddling grate, which allows ash to be collected into a built-in ash pan; as these fuels burn best with air entering from beneath the fire and allowing for more efficient combustion. Multi-fuel Stoves have all the advantages of a wood burning stove, with the added convenience of being able to burn a variety of other types of fuel Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 3
4 Gas Stoves: If a solid fuel stove isn t suitable for your home or your needs, many gas stoves can provide an aesthetically pleasing alternative or be your preferred method of fuel for a stove. Featuring the same or very similar styling, many of our gas stoves are based on their solid fuel equivalents. Gas stoves offer a combination of convenience and ambient warmth from the press of a button. Developed by innovative engineers, gas stoves have highly realistic fire effects with either log or coal fuel beds. The convenience a button allows you to experience the warmth and the beautiful dancing flames instantly. Most gas stoves can also be upgraded to operate via a remote control, including a version that features a thermostat and programmable time periods just like central heating. Electric Stoves: The versatility of an electric stove means that you can install it easily and use instantly. The electric stoves we supply are highly efficient and come in a variety of designs from traditional to modern and suit all pockets and locations all without the need of a chimney! Based on their solid fuel equivalents, you can enjoy the aesthetics of the stoves with the convenience of a switch. These electric stoves produce realistic fire effects. With many of the designs the heater controls for each stove are discreetly located under the stove and can be operated using a remoter control device. The beauty of an electric stove is that you can enjoy the flame visual without the heat output perfect for those warmer evenings! What are the latest stove designs? The extensive design ranges from many different stove manufacturers have allowed homeowners to select from a variety of models. Whether you are looking to upgrade your existing wood burning stove or thinking of a new stove, there are wood burning stoves for all types of home. You can even install a wood burning stove in properties without chimneys by using fully sealed twin wall flue systems! As one of the UK s foremost suppliers of wood burning stoves, Stoves & Flue (Wigan) Ltd have a wide range of models from which to choose. With both Traditional and Contemporary styles of stove available, a visit to the showroom will be well worth while Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 4
5 Hot Water & Central Heating? If you are looking to invest in a wood burning stove that can heat up both your domestic hot water and central heating, we are able to offer a wide selection of contemporary and traditional boiler stoves to suit your home. Some models can even be purchased at a lower VAT rate. With the growing interest in becoming more eco-friendly, the Government has introduced the Energy-Saving Materials scheme which allows homeowners to buy certain stoves at a VAT of just 5%. No Chimney? Properties without chimneys now also have the choice to add a wood burning stove. A twin-wall flue pipe system allows rooms without chimneys to enjoy the benefits of a wood burning stove. Homeowners can even choose from a selection of twin wall components to suit both the internal and external style of their home. Another major development in stove design is the ability to install a wood burning stove in homes that are in major towns and cities often referred to as Smoke Control Areas. These homes are not allowed to emit any smoke from their chimney when using a wood burning stove, therefore, homes within the Smoke Control Areas that have a non-exempt appliance may only burn a list of authorised fuels that can be found on the DEFRA website. Installation? Once you have found a suitable wood burning stove for your home, it is important that you have it professionally installed. The installation has to be carried out safely, efficiently and adhere to installation compliance. Using an accredited HETAS installer means that your installation and servicing is carried out properly by a trained and competent individual. To conclude, there are many positive benefits of owning a wood burning stove. Not only will it enable you to reduce your monthly outgoings but it will also provide your home a carbon neutral, wholly sustainable heat source! 2015 Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 5
6 First Things First: The importance of a site survey: When installing a new stove, or updating an old one, a site survey will help you to find the best type of appliance, flue system and location of the stove for your home, as well as providing you with an accurate quotation of cost. Before purchasing your new stove, we highly recommend that you have a site survey carried out to establish the appliance s suitability to your home. A site survey needs to be completed by a suitably qualified engineer (HETAS registered installer) before installing any stove to your home. You can arrange this by calling Stoves & Flue on During a typical site survey, our engineer will take into consideration the appropriate heat output for the room, the relevant location within the house and the most suitable flue system for your stove. If you are currently replacing an existing stove, the survey will look at the requirements of the Building Regulations or recommend any changes that have to be made to comply. If the installation is new, the site survey will identify the requirements for the hearth, flue system, ventilation and clearances to any combustible materials to maintain safe use Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 6
7 Getting the best out of your stove: Even the best wood-burning or multi-fuel stoves need your help, if you want to heat your home efficiently and, at the same time, protect the environment from harmful particles. Ultimately, it is a matter of how you use your stove and of course, what you burn in it. You can do both yourself and the environment a big favour by following these recommendations: Choose a stove which complies with the strictest requirements on particle emissions. Make sure your chimney is the correct size in relation to the stove. A good draw is essential for optimum combustion. Never burn waste, cardboard packaging, printed matter or wood that has been painted or in some other way treated. Make sure the wood is clean and dry. Moisture content of max 16-20% gives the best and cleanest combustion (and also less soot on the glass). Never overfill the stove and avoid using oversized logs Air is important for good combustion and good economy. Before the wood burns, enough air needs to be added that flames are produced. Don t leave the stove burning overnight. Leaving your stove burning overnight is bad for your wallet and the environment. Lighting your Stove: Before you start using your stove, there are a few things which you need to bear in mind. The first couple of times you use the stove, keep the fires small to allow the paint to cure before making full use of the stove. The air control settings, lighting methods and the firing intervals will vary depending on the chimney draught, the wind direction and climatic conditions, the heating requirements and the fuel being used. Therefore, it may take a while before you are completely familiar with how to operate your stove correctly under various conditions. Although you can use your stove with almost all kinds of wood, you should never use wet or green wood. Wood should be stored under cover for at least 1 year, and preferably 2 years, and open to the air. Wood should be chopped as soon as possible after felling if it is to dry quickly. Never use driftwood as it usually has a high salt content, which damages both the stove and the chimney. Impregnated wood, laminate and chipboard may emit poisonous gases and fumes and should therefore not be used as fuel Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 7
8 Logs with a diameter exceeding 100mm (4 ) should always be split. Logs should be short enough to lie flat over the layers of embers, with a min 1 air gap at either end. The most environment friendly way to ignite a fire is socalled top-down lighting. Such ignition is done by placing the kindling relatively high in the pile of firewood placed in the burn chamber. This way, the gasses burn gradually as the fire works its way down the pile of wood. You will need: 2 fire lighters (or 5-10 scrunched-up sheets of newspaper) 1 kg of dry kindling Approx. 1-1½kg of chopped firewood You should always have an insulating layer of ashes from previous firings in the bottom of the fire chamber. 2-3 cm of ash is a suitable base for the wood. Start by placing a couple of logs, approximately 500g, in the bottom of the burn chamber. Place approximately 1kg of dry kindling wood on top of the logs. Place some crumpled paper (or a couple of fire lighters) below the top layer of kindling wood. Light the paper (or fire lighters). The flames work their way slowly downwards from the top. After 5-10 minutes the heat will produce draught through the chimney, and the door can be shut. After approximately minutes, when the last flames go out. More wood should be added while there are still embers. Use a poker or ash scraper to spread the embers, but ensure that most of them are at the front of the stove. When the air controls are opened fully, and the door is closed, the wood will ignite within 2-3 minutes. Finally, adjust the air supply control to the required position to give optimal combustion. Maintaining a good fire box temperature will ensure secondary combustion of the smoke and gases giving a clean and efficient burn. The stove should be refuelled before only glowing embers remain. Enjoy your new stove Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 8
9 Frequently Asked Questions: Why is the glass in my stove covered with soot? Soot will appear on the glass if the combustion temperature is too low or if the lighting period is too short. When lighting the stove a lot of air must be supplied to warm up the chimney. Open the riddling grate and the air controls. If necessary, open the door a bit to supply as much air as possible. When the kindling has turned into embers, dry wood is added. Plenty of air must still be supplied. Close the riddling grate and primary air supply when the blue/purple flames have disappeared. The combustion is now exclusively controlled by the secondary air controls. The combustion temperature is increased by supplying more secondary air and at the same time by keeping the riddling grate and primary air control closed. Wet wood or poor draught conditions might also cause sooty glass. Ensure that the wood is dry before trying to burn it. How do I remove dirt from the door glass? The glass can be cleaned by using an approved glass cleaner. (Glass Cleaner is available from the Stoves & Flue online shop.) Alternatively warm soapy water and newspaper can be used but only when the stove is cold. How often should the stove be cleaned for soot and ashes? The stove needs to be cleaned and serviced fully at least once a year. But naturally depending on how much the stove is used. Note that the stove must be cold when cleaned. How do I clean the inside of the stove? Remove the baffle and clean it with a brush and vacuum. Note that the stove must be cold when cleaned up. The surface will be kept well if vacuum cleaned with a soft nozzle. If necessary wipe the stove with a moist cloth, but only when the stove is completely cold. Be careful when choosing cleaning materials as the paint may be damaged by acid. The ash pan must be emptied 2 or 3 times a week in an ash bucket where the ashes are to be kept until they are free from embers. The ashes cannot be used as fertiliser. How do I clean the surface of an enamelled stove? Wipe the stove with a moist cloth, but only when the stove is cold. Use distilled water with a mild detergent or soap. Remember to remove the soap before lighting the stove. Enamel is a strong material that does not change appearance unless the stove has been exposed to bumps or scratches Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 9
10 How do I clean the surface of a painted stove? The surface will be kept well if vacuum cleaned with a soft nozzle. If necessary wipe the stove with a moist cloth, but only when the stove is completely cold. Be careful when choosing cleaning materials as the paint may be damaged by acid. If necessary, use mild detergent or brown soap. The painted surface may get a grey tinge over time; but the stove can easily be freshened up with a special heat-resistant spray-paint, which can be bought from the Stoves & Flue online shop. The stove must dry 24 hours before being used again. Some fumes may be given off by the paint. These are not harmful but ventilate the room well. Maintenance: You can obtain maintenance products and more helpful advice about stove maintenance from Stoves & Flue. We stock installation and maintenance products fireplace mortar, ceramic insulation rope, gasket kit for doors, paint, stove kit, glass cleaner, stove blacking etc. Please ensure that you use the correct spares and maintenance products. The sealing rope in the door is loose, or has come away. What do I do? The sealing rope in the door becomes worn after it has been in use for some time, and can start coming away. The seal is fitted using our Rope Seal Adhesive. When replacing the seal, the surface must be cleaned thoroughly with steel wool or a steel brush. How do I remove scratches and marks? If there are marks on the stove or it simply needs painting to freshen it up, you must clean the surface first. Rust can be removed using fine steel wool, then painted using heat resistant spray paint available in 25 colours from the Stoves and Flue online shop. There is soot in the chimney, how did that happen? If the temperature is too low you might experience tarry soot in your chimney. The combustion temperature will be too low if not enough air is supplied, compared to the amount of wood. Tarry soot is easily recognised as a brown sticky coat. Supply more secondary air to increase the temperature. A stove flue thermometer placed on the lower part of the flue pipe will indicate if the air supply is correct. The flue gas temperature must be approx. 250 C. If the flue gas temperature is considerably lower, tarry soot may be created in the chimney. If the flue gas temperature exceeds C, the inside parts might be superheated Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 10
11 Smoke is coming out into my living room when I open the stove door. How do I avoid that? The stove must never be operated with the door open; the door should only be fully opened during refuelling. Smoke may be emitted into the room at the time of refuelling if the stove is burning at a very low rate. To overcome this either turn the stove to full rate, or open the door slightly (1 or 2 cm) for a few minutes before adding any additional fuel. If the door is left open for too long (2 minutes or so) during the refuel procedure, a large amount of cool air will be drawn into the chimney chilling the flue gases and slowing the draft. This will result in smoke and fumes coming back in the room; the refuelling time should be kept to a minimum. If smoke is persistent, and the stove is difficult to light and maintain a good burn rate, there may be a problem with the chimney draught. You should consult with your installer or a qualified chimney sweep. There is not enough draught in the chimney. What should I do? If the chimney is too short, has inadequate insulation or is leaky, there may be problems; get a chimney sweep to check it and measure the flue draught. If the above possible problems have been eliminated, extend the lighting period, to ensure the chimney is well heated. The draw on the chimney will be greater when it is hot. This is achieved by using lots of kindling and 2-3 firelighters. After igniting the firelighters leave the stove door slightly ajar about 2 to 3cm for 5 to 10 minutes. When the majority of flame have died down and there is a good amount of glowing embers add 2-3 pieces of dry wood and keep the air supply open. On chimneys with slower flue draughts it may be necessary to leave the stove door slightly ajar again until the logs fully ignite. Once a good flame has been established and the door closed the air control can be set to the desired position. If you have an old brick chimney with a large inner diameter, it can be a good idea to reduce the area with a liner. Seek the help of a HETAS engineer. The glass in my stove has cracked. Cracks on the glass may happen due to spits from the wood. Or impurities may be found in the wood such as pebbles that may hit the glass during the combustion. If the glass has cracked, it naturally has to be replaced. Replacing the glass yourself is a fairly simple job. If you re unsure about your ability or would prefer, talk to your local dealer Stoves and Flue (Wigan) Ltd 11
