Recommended Fuels
The HETAS Ltd. appliance approval along with approval in a smoke controlled area only
covers the use of the following fuels in this appliance:
• Wood logs not exceeding 20cms in length and 8×8cm thick. The fuel must not
contain halogenated organic compounds or heavy metals as a result of treatment
with wood preservatives or coatings.
Approval does not cover the use of other fuels either alone or mixed with the suitable fuels
listed above, nor does it cover instructions for the use of other fuels.
Do NOT burn wet wood, This will give a poor heat output and will cause heavy deposits
of soot and tar to accumulate on the glass and throughout the stove and flue. The coating
of soot and tar in the chimney is volatile creating a high risk of chimney fires. A growing
tree contains a high percentage of water, the wood needs to be dried out (seasoned)
before it is suitable for burning (this can take several years). Wood logs are best stored in
a stack, sheltered from the weather, in a well ventilated area and raised off the ground.
This allows the air to circulate and prevents mildew.
Do NOT burn pallet wood or wood containing paint, glue or other chemicals. Burning this
type of wood will result in damage to the appliance, any such damage will not be covered
by the products warranty.
