The recommended fuel types for the Clarke 6909900 Pembroke Cast Iron Stove are seasoned hardwood logs and smokeless coal. Avoid using treated wood or non-standard fuels.
Begin by placing firelighters or newspaper at the base, then add kindling and small logs. Open the air vents and ignite the firelighters/newspaper. Once the kindling is burning well, add larger logs or coal.
Ensure the air vents are fully open to improve combustion. Check that the chimney is not blocked and use only dry, seasoned wood or recommended fuels for optimal heat output.
It is recommended to clean the stove and remove ash after every use. Additionally, perform a more thorough cleaning, including flue and chimney inspection, at least once a year.
Check if the stove door is fully closed and the seals are intact. Inspect the chimney for blockages and ensure proper ventilation. If the problem persists, consult a professional.
No, the stove should always be used with the door closed to ensure efficient combustion and to prevent smoke from entering the room.
Start with the air vents fully open when lighting the fire. Once the fire is established, you can adjust the vents to control the burn rate and heat output according to your needs.
Regular cleaning of the stove and chimney, checking and replacing door seals if necessary, and periodic inspection of the flue system are essential for maintaining good condition.
Blackening of the stove glass can occur if the wood is not properly seasoned or if the air vents are not adequately adjusted. Regularly clean the glass and ensure optimal burning conditions.
Ensure that the wood is dry and seasoned. Check the air vents for blockages and confirm that the chimney is drawing properly. Increasing the draft by opening windows slightly can also help.
