1. General warnings and safety instructions
The general warnings and instructions must be followed closely.
- Read the whole manual carefully before putting the stove into use.
- Your stove may only be carried using approved means of transport with
adequate load bearing capacity,
- When fuel is burning heat is released, so the upper part of the stove, the
doors, the door handles, the inspection windows, the flues and possibly also
the jacket of the stove may become very hot. These parts must therefore not
be touched without suitable heat-resistant gloves or the operating handle
- Tell your children about this danger and make sure that they stay a safe
distance away whenever the stove is used
- Do not place items which are not heat-resistant on the stove or close to it
- Do not put a kettle on top of the stove except on the polished plate specially
provided
- Do not put clothes on the stove to dry
- Drying racks for clothes, etc. must be placed a safe distance away from the
heating installation - FIRE RISK!
- No inflammable or explosive materials must be used in the same or adjacent
spaces,
- The stove is not designed as an all-purpose incinerator. Use only suitable fuel
- The outside of some parts of the stove can become very hot. Take appropriate
precautions
- The stove must not be altered or modified in any way
- Use only original spare parts from the manufacturer
- This stove is not suitable for installation using a flue to which multiple stoves
are connected,
2. Introduction
Dear user,
By purchasing this SAEY Altum stove you have chosen an innovative heating

problem-free operation.
The Saey Altum was built using innovative techniques and meets European
standard EN 13240.
If you want the stove's performance to be as clean and green as possible, then
you need to read and follow the instructions in this installation and operating
manual with care.
Any damage to the stove resulting from a failure to follow the instructions in
the installation and operating manual will invalidate the guarantee.
Do you need additional information or technical data? An installation problem?

3. Fuel
Which type of fuel? Wood or wood briquettes
Which firewood should I choose?
There are various types of firewood which each have their own power and way
of burning. Preference should be given to hardwood such as oak, beech, ash,
hornbeam and wood from fruit trees. These types of wood burn well and form
a bed of coals that stays glowing for a long time.
The wood must be dry!
Damp wood gives off a much less heat, because a lot of energy is used up to
evaporate the moisture from the wood. It also causes soiling of the hearth,
window and chimney.
Dry wood means clean pieces wood with a humidity ratio, by comparison with
dried wood, of no more than 20%. So choose well-cutwood that has been able
to dry out for two years and store it in a protected but well-ventilated spot.
TIP: How to recognise dry wood? Dry wood weighs significantly less and
makes a brighter noise if you bang two blocks against each other.
Use prepared wood or finely chopped wood (splinters) to light the stove!
Things not to use ...
Rubbish, wood chips, shavings and sawdust, bark and waste from chipboard,
plywood and wood with a treated surface must not be used. They cause
soiling of the hearth and the chimney and can emit poisonous fumes.
Watch out:
Do not cut the firewood too small. Very thin wood burns only for a very short
time only and is only suitable for lighting the stove. Let large pieces, generally
about 25 to 30 cm long burn naturally. round short wood must be chopped
small.
Also take account of the power of your stove. If your stove has a power of 7
kW than ± 2 kg dry wood per hour is enough.

6. Technology
- Snorkel
Snorkel technology ensures healthy, safe and efficient combustion. It is
available by using the optional airbox for this stove (ref. 479.5306.010).
Healthy, because snorkel technology draws all the necessary oxygen
from outside – just like a snorkel, in fact – and not from your room. That's
important, because the insulation in our houses is constantly improving.
Snorkel technology ensure the maximum breathing space in even the best
insulated houses.
Safe, because the stoves give off nothing indoors except heat. There is
no risk of backwash combustion gases or of CO poisoning.
Stoves with Snorkel technology are also more efficient, because they
no longer suck heated air out of the room.
- Airwash
Naverbranding = post-combustion
Airwash system and post-combustion with our wood and coal-burning stoves
The airwash system provides a natural flow of air across the window of the
stove, preventing soot deposits from forming on it. So you can enjoy the play
of living flame in your hearth to the full through a clean window.
Adding fresh oxygen to the final flue gases gives rise to a secondary
combustion – post-combustion – this improves performance and reduces
emissions of flue gases, which benefits the environment.

8. Packaging
Your first impressions are important to us! The packaging of your new stove offers
exceptional protection against damage. However the stove and its accessories can
still be damaged in transit.
So please check the stove for damage and missing components when you take
delivery of it. Notify your supplier immediately of any missing components and also
on the CMR document.
The packaging for your stove is harmless for the environment. The cardboard and the
plastic foil can be returned to the local waste facility for recycling.
The package includes:
- 1 Saey Altum appliance
- 1 handgrip
- 1 manual
If anything is missing, please inform your installer as soon as possible.
9. Installing the stove
All local regulations, including national and European standards must be followed
when the appliance is installed.
Only an appliance connected by a recognised installer guarantees compliance with
legislation on construction and fire prevention. This is certainly required for safe and
proper use of the stove.
The stove may only be installed on a floor with adequate load-bearing capacity. If the
floor is non-compliant, then steps will have to be taken to increase the load-bearing
capacity.
In order that the appliance can be installed level, its legs are fitted with adjustable
feet (levelling screws). If necessary, adjust these so that the appliance is installed as
level as possible.
9.1 The chimney
Before a stove is connected to a chimney connected is, the size and quality of
the chimney must be checked to ensure that they meet locally applicable
regulations. The measurements may need to be calculated.
The chimney must be cleaned yearly. This cleaning must take place in
compliance with local legislation in force.

9.1.1. Chimney tips
The stove can be connected directly to the chimney. The diameter of the outlet
pipe must match the diameter of the connector pipe on the fireplace.
We can guarantee that the appliance will work well if there is a hearth draught
of between 8 and 20 Pa. The hearth draught can only be determined when the
appliance is lit! If the chimney draws too strongly, then a damper must be
incorporated.
If it draws too little, then the following measures should be considered:
a. Extending the chimney
b. Improving the insulation of the chimney (less cooling of the flue gases)
c. Improving the flow of air into the space in which the stove is installed.
d. Improving the airtightness of the chimney.
Many problems with stoves are caused by badly working chimneys. Therefore
we offer the following tips. These are for information only and are not binding
on us. There are just too many unknown factors affecting how well the
appliance-chimney combination works. If in doubt, you should contact a
specialist. Chimneys that have worked perfectly well with an old stove can give
problems with a new one. The stoves of 30 years ago had much lower
performance than the present generation of stoves which burn a lot cleaner
and also have higher requirements as regards the chimney.
Tips:
e. A round channel is preferable (to minimise friction)
f. The diameter of the chimney must not be smaller at any point than that
of the appliance (except in very long chimneys where a narrower
section should sometimes be included).
g. The mouth of the chimney should be unobstructed.
h. The chimney should be as close as possible to vertical with as few
curves as possible.
i. The chimney must not draw in extra air. Watch out for flue dampers
and cleaning hatches in the cellar or on the roof!
