Ensure the air vents are fully open. Place small kindling and newspaper in the stove, light the newspaper, and gradually add larger logs once the kindling is burning well.
Check that the chimney is clean and free of obstructions. Ensure all air inlets are open and try lighting a small, hot kindling fire to help establish a draft.
The chimney should be cleaned at least once a year, or more frequently if you use the stove daily.
Use dry, seasoned hardwoods such as oak, maple, or ash for best performance and efficiency. Avoid using softwoods or wet wood.
Ensure that the stove and chimney are clean and that seals around doors and glass are intact. Use well-seasoned wood and maintain a hot fire.
Regularly clean the glass, remove ash, check seals, and inspect the firebox for any cracks or damage.
Carefully remove the door, unscrew the retaining clips, and replace the glass with a new one, ensuring the gasket is intact before reassembling.
If you notice smoke leaking from the door or reduced efficiency in burning, it may be time to inspect and replace the door seals.
Burn only dry, seasoned wood, maintain a hot fire, and ensure adequate airflow to reduce creosote formation. Regular chimney cleaning is also essential.
Yes, the Jotul Combifire 1A stove can be used during a power outage as it does not rely on electricity to function.
