combustion technology, which can normally only
be found on modern ¿replaces. This ensures clean
combustion and high e-ciency, even at lower loads.
Cleaning the Smoke Duct System
When the ¿replace is used every day throughout the
heating season, we recommend that the smoke duct
system is swept once yearly. This is to maintain the
draught and e-ciency. Soot isolate the ducts and
thus lower the e-ciency. One can also notice that the
draught is reduced and that the ames are di-cult
to control with the air vent function. Remember that
the ¿replace must always be cold before it is swept /
inspected.
In order to clean the ducts, remove the Thermotte
ba-ße plate and the two Thermotte side / back plates.
Remove the two revision covers in the Powerstone and
then insert the cleaning brush both up- and downwards.
The soot will collect in the bottom and can be removed
with an ash-cleaner by removing the ash grate and the
ash-boxes. The ue pipe can be swept by removing the
revision covers on top of the stove.
By rear or lateral connection the ue can be swept by
removing the smoke ba-ße and then opening the bypass
damper.
The inspection shall be performed by the Professional
servicemen.
Ash and Ash-pan
The ash-pan consists of an inner part which is used for
the regular emptying of ashes. The duct system can
be reached when the outer part of the ash-pan also is
removed.
The ashes must be emptied periodically. Please note
that the ash may contain hot embers even several days
after the ¿re has ceased. Use a container of
non-combustible material to remove the ashes.
Weight
The home owner must ensure that the oor can
withstand the load of the total weight of the product.
Firewall
Freestanding ¿replaces can be installed without a
¿rewall. Observe all safety distances to combustible
materials.
Connection to Chimney
Follow speci¿cations from the chimney manufacturer
for connection to the chimney. Dry stack the ¿replace
for accurate height and positioning of the ue/chimney
connection.
The product is not compatible with top connected
concrete chimney.
Maximum weight of steel chimney (top connection)
is 300kg.
Heat accumulating ¿replaces di-•er from other ¿replaces
in that they are intended to provide a moderate heat
for prolonged periods with a limited time of burning.
Conventional ¿replaces give o-• strong heat during the
burning period but with a very limited cool-down period.
The heat accumulating ¿replaces from Nordpeis have
a long duct system where the heat developed in the
combustion chamber passes through the duct system
before it exits through the chimney. The heat from the
gases is absorbed by the material surrounding the
smoke ducts, and by the time the smoke exits through
the chimney. The e-ciency of a well-constructed
heat accumulating ¿replace is thus far better than the
e-ciency of a conventional ¿replace.
A heat accumulating ¿replace can keep an even
temperature throughout the day with only one heating
cycle.
Double- action damper
The stove is ¿tted with a double action damper, and
controls two functions: bypass and chimney damper.
When the damper rod is pulled all the way out, the ue
gasses will bypass the canal system and exit through
the chimney. This function is used when lighting the ¿re.
When the stove and the chimney has reached operat-
ing temperature after 10 – 30 minutes the damper rod
should be pushed half way in until a “click” is heard. In
this position the bypass damper is closed and the ue
gasses are forced through the stove’s canal system
which is absorbing the heat of the ue gasses before it
is released to the chimney.
The bypass damper should also be opened before
opening the door for re-fuelling wood, and then closed
again.
WARNING: Using the stove over prolonged periods
with open bypass damper may expose the chimney
to higher temperatures that it is design for.
By pushing the damper rod all the way in, both bypass-
and the chimney damper will be closed. This closes
o-• the canal system from the chimney, preventing the
heat accumulated in the stove to be lost through the
chimney. This function should never be used before the
¿re is out and only a bit of embers are left in the stove.
WARNING: Closing the chimney damper too early
cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Air Vent
When burning in a heat accumulating ¿replaces the
air vent is traditionally kept open to a maximum. This
ensures optimal combustion and minimises carbon
deposits in the smoke duct system. In addition it makes
it easier to keep the glass clean during intensive
burning. However, should one wish for a longer burn
period and slower ames, the air vent is adjusted
and reduced. Salzburg is equipped with secondary
