Westbo WeRa General instructions
Building notication
Before installation of the replace and construction of a
chimney, it is a demand to do a building notication.
For piece of advise, contact your local authorities.
When receiving the stove
When the stove is received it is important to check the goods
to see that the stove is not damaged during the transport.
Damages should be notied to the freight company immedia-
tely.
Floor protection
The oor protection prevents the oor in front of the stove from
sparks. Check your local regulations by your domestic autho-
rites.
Flue inspection
A good piece of advice when installing to the existing chimney
is to before start, contact the Chimney sweeper for
inspection. The Chimney sweeper can recommend
possible need for chimney renovation.
After installing the replace, it must be inspected by a
Chimney sweeper again before it is put into operation.
Supporting material
The product weight is 150 kg and can be placed on an
ordinary oor.
Combustible and non-combustible wall
The stove does not require a rewall but is approved to
place it 400 mm from the back edge to the combustible wall.
When placed against non-combustible wall (rewall), a mini-
mum distance of 100 mm must be kept.
Heating and care instructions
See in particular section in this guide.
Standards
National and European standards, building regulations and
rules must be observed.
Therefore, inform your Chimney sweeper in advance.
The chimney calculation is carried out according to DIN EN
13384- 1 or YOUR EN 13384-2.
Please read this brochure carefully and the chimney
suppliers instructions before starting assembly.
Good luck with your new replace!

Westbo WeRa Fitting instruction
Legs and Chamotte bricks must be mounted in the rebox.
Use mounting option one or two.
Includning:
4 Legs and screws
6 Chamotte bricks
1 Air box
1 Handle
1 Smoke pipe 125 mm in diameter
Chamotte bricks
Combined with the stove there are six Chamotte bricks.
S1 och S2 - Side bricks
S 5 - Bottom brick
S 6 - Rear brick
S 3 -and S 4 - Baffele plates
Place the bricks shown on this page.
Legs and Chamotte bricks must be mounted on the rebox.
Use mounting options one or two.
1. Disassemble the top plate from the rebox and lift it off.
First, place the left side brick (S1) in the rebox.
2. Then insert the second side brick (S2).
Be careful on the orientation of the side stones so the airholes
are in correct position.
3. Then insert the bottom brick (S5) and the rear brick (S6).
4. Place the baffele plates (S3) and (S4) towards the back so the
gap for the smoke is in the front.
Reassemble the top plate.
The replace is now ready. Install the handle.
In some cases, a smaller piece of the side brick (S2) needs to be
knocked away in order to that handles and door should be able
to close correctly.

Westbo WeRa Fire advise
Safety
Westbo WeRa is tested according to the DIN standard DIN
13240.
The stove is room air dependent, i.e., the combustion air is
consumed from the installation room. Make sure that an ade-
quate air supply is ensured.
The stove is equipped with a control for supply air to the com-
bustion and is located above the rebox.
Observe the distances to ammable objects. Do not leave
paper, newspapers or other combustible materials near the
stove.
The stove can be hot!
Risk of burns on all surfaces: combustion chamber door, door
and control handles, smoke pipes and the front of the stove.
Do not leave children unattended near the stove.
Empty the ashes
Never drain ash into a combustible vessel, preferably use a
sheet metal vessel with a tight tting lid. There may be ember
residues in the ashes several days after the end of the re.
Smell
At the rst ring, some odors may appear.
It is due to certain coatings on the plate that are burned off.
The smell disappears after a couple of bonres.
First re
We advise you to use ignition pads or equivalent. With
the help of these, there will be a quick over ignition of the
wood and a cleaner combustion.
Never use lighter uid.
At rst ignition, the supply air control shall be fully opened.
Put in about 1-2 kilograms of kindling wood (thin logs).
Put a 2-3 kindling pads on top and light on. Close the
door when the re has started. With this method, there
will be a quick over ignition and it minimizes soot coating
on the glass.
When lling wood, carefully open the door so that smoke
rash is avoided. Never ll up with wood as long as it burns
a lot.
Continuous ring
It is important to get the right temperature in the replace.
Then the stove and wood are utilized to the maximum
and there will be a clean combustion. Soot coating in the
rebox and on the glass is also avoided.
When red correctly, the smoke should not be visible, but
only perceived as a dripping in the air.
In the case of a good ember bed after the ignition pha-
se, the actual ring can begin with the right amount of
rewood.
Now adjust the supply air control relative to the draught
in the chimney. It should burn well, if it is strangled too
much, there is a risk of soot coating in the rebox, as well
as sooting on the glass.
Recommend amount of wood
We recommend smaller wood logs, that can be placed in
the stove. Length of wood is approximately 20 cm and at
the most 3 kg. The maximum amount of wood allowed is
approximately 3 kg per hour for dry cut birch wood.
Sweeping
Sweeping should be done by the Chimney sweeper.
Sweeping of the stove can be done by scraping down
and/or brushing. To collect the ashes, the most suitable
is to use a soot vacuum cleaner.
Chimney re
If a chimney re occurs or is feared, dampers and hatches
must be closed. If necessary, contact emergency services
for extinguishing. After a chimney re, the chimney must
always be inspected.

Westbo WeRa Wood handling
Preparation
We recommend a diameter of 6-10 centimetre and that the
wood logs are 6 centimetre shorter than the replace.
This will help the air to circulate in the best possible way. If the
diameter is bigger, the wood logs must be splitted. Wood logs
that are splitted will dry better.
Storage
The splitted wood logs should be stored for 1-2 years before
usage. If the wood is put in piles it will dry faster. Before use,
store the wood in room temperature. Please keep in mind that
the wood during Autumn and Winter absorbs moist from the
air.
Moisture
To avoid environmental problems and to get the best fuel-
ling economy, the wood logs must be dried before use. They
should contain maximum 21% moisture. Best performance
of the wood logs is achieved by a moisture level of 15-18%.
A simple test is to beat two wood logs against each other.
If a numb sound occurs, the wood contains too much moist.
By using moist wood logs, large amount of the heat will be
used to evaporate the water. The stove will therefore not be
warm. This is of course uneconomic and there will be soot on
the glass hatches, inside the stove and in the chimney. The
environment will also be contaminated.
What is correct amount of wood logs?
How much is a kilo of wood? Or how do you handle the wood
in a correct way? There are literature to buy regarding wood
knowledge. It is a good thing to acquire a little more knowled-
ge on the subject than what we communicate here.
It is absolutely forbidden to re:
Painted, pressure-treated or glued wood. Neither is chipboard,
plastic, or treated paper suitable to re. The substances con-
tained in these products are harmful both to the environment
and to the stove. Even the chimney can be attacked if you
use material mentioned above.
Simply put, re only clean wood logs.
Caloric wood value
The caloric wood value varies between wood species. On
some you need to put a bit more wood into the replace to get
the same amount of heat like other wood species. In our ring
instructions, we calculate with birch wood, which has a very
good caloric value and is the type of wood we recommend.
By burning oak or beech, keep in mind that these types of
wood have a higher caloric value than birch. Wood logs
must also be reduced so the stove won’t be damaged.
Pine and spruce have higher caloric value than birch.
