Poor draught

• Check the length of the chimney and that it complies with

national laws and regulations. Make sure that the minimum
cross section on the chimney is large enough. See also «2.0

Technical data» and «4.5 Chimney» for information.

• Make sure that there is not anything preventing the smoke

gasses from escaping: Branches, trees, etc.

The fire extinguishes after a while

• Make sure that the firewood is sufficiently dry

Find out whether there is negative pressure in the house, close
mechanical fans and open a window close to the stove.

• Check that the air vent is open.
• Check that the flue outlet is not clogged by soot.

Unusual amount of soot accumulates on the
glass

Some soot will always stick to the glass, but the quantity depends
on:
• Humidity of the fuel.
• The local draught conditions
• Regulating the air vent.
Most of the soot will normally burn off when the air vent is
opened all the way and a fire is burning briskly in the fireplace.«6.1
