manufacturers operating instructions.
1.ꢀ It should be installed by a competent installer, in
accordance with all local regulations, including those
referring to national and European standards.
1.ꢁ The stove should only be used to burn approved fuels
and should not be used with liquid fuels or used as an
incinerator.
1.ꢂ As with all heating stoves the surfaces will become very
hot when in use, therefore due care should be taken
when near the stove. If it is to be used in the presence
of young children, elderly or infirm persons, a suitable
fireguard should be used. Care should also be taken with
the placement of combustible items near the stove as
conducted and radiated heat could cause a fire hazard.
1.5 Stovax offer a wide range of firescreens and sparkguards,
along with a hearthgate system designed to offer full
protection for a range of stoves and fireplaces. Your Stovax
dealer can advise you on these products.
1.6 Due to the high temperature of the convected air above
the stove we recommend that no valuable photographs,
paintings, porcelain or other items are placed in this area.
Such artefacts may be damaged by long term exposure to
fluctuating temperatures.
1.7 The additional ventilation required for the safe use of this
stove should be kept free of any obstructions, both inside
and outside the building, at all times.
1.8 Have your Stovax product serviced annually by a competent
service engineer, and if repairs are required use only Stovax
approved spare parts.

2. USING THE STOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME
ꢀ.1 When new, it is best to burn the fire at a low output for
the first few days of use. This will allow the construction to
settle and all fixing glues and paint to fully cure.
ꢁ.11 We would recommend that the stove be burnt at high
output for at least ꢁ0 minutes each day when it is in use.
This will help reduce the build-up of tars and creosotes
within the stove and flue system.
ꢀ.ꢀ Avoid touching the paint during the first period of use.
ꢀ.ꢁ During this time the stove may give off some unpleasant
odours, and we recommend that you keep the room well
ventilated during this period to avoid a build-up of fumes.

ꢁ.6 To burn wood efficiently it is best to allow a bed of ash to
build-up on the grate, or the base of the stove, and control
the combustion using the Airwash control only.
ꢂ.7 Before re-fuelling the stove it is advisable to de-ash the
firebed, using the riddling grate system. This is completed as
follows:-
ꢁ.7 Before re-fuelling the stove it is advisable to first rake the
embers evenly over the firebed then open the Airwash
control fully for a few minutes, to establish a glowing bed
before adding new logs.

and personal preferences will be established by experience
in using the stove. It is not recommmended to load large
amounts of fuel and burn with the Primary Air Control on
low settings for long periods of time as this will reduce the
effectiveness off the glass cleaning effect of the airwash.
Also this will help reduce the build-up of tar and creosotes
within the stove and flue system.
6.ꢁ Before re-lighting the stove remove the baffles, clear any
debris that may have accumulated, and check the flue is
clear of any blockages.
ꢂ.10 We would recommend that the stove be burnt at high
output for at least ꢁ0 minutes each day when it is in use.
This will help reduce the build-up of tars and creosotes
within the stove and flue system.
7. ASH REMOVAl (Multi-fuel stoves)
7.1 The burning of any fuel will produce ash, which will have
to be removed after a period of use. This time will depend
on the fuel used. Before removing the ash from the stove it
is advisable to let the fire burn down to a low level, or even
go out completely. The ashpan can then be removed using
gloved hands, after opening the ashdoor (Huntingdon ꢁ0,
ꢁ5, ꢂ0 multifuel stoves / main firedoor Huntingdon ꢀ5/ꢀ8).
ꢂ.11 Burn only manufactured smokeless fuels, suitable for use
in closed appliances.
ꢂ.1ꢀ do not burn bituminous coal, ‘petro-coke’ or other
petroleum based fuels, as this will invalidate the product
guarantee.
7.ꢀ As heat can remain in the ash for a long period after use
care must be taken when removing and carrying the full
ashpan. We suggest that the ashpan be carried using gloved
hands, or the ash is placed directly in to a Stovax Ash
Caddy (Stovax Part No. ꢂꢀꢀ7).
5. OVER-FIRING
5.1 Do not use the appliance at maximum output for prolonged
periods of time, or over-fill the firebox with fuel, as this
could result in over-firing. If the connecting fluepipe,
appliance flue collar or top plate glow red with heat the
appliance is being over-fired and the air controls should be
closed to reduce the output.
7.ꢁ Do not place ash in a bin made from plastic or any other
combustible material.
8. ASH REMOVAl (Wood-burning stoves)
5.ꢀ Over-firing of enamel stoves will cause permanent damage
to the finish and will appear as small cracks or flaking
enamel.
8.1 When burning wood the amount of ash will be smaller and
may only need removal once every week. To do this, allow
the fire to burn out and cool. Open the main door, then
after removing the log retainer scoop out the ash with a
suitable shovel. It is best to leave a layer of ash in the stove
to form a bed for the new fire.
5.ꢁ Do not load fuel higher than the log guard at the front of
the stove and the secondary combustion air inlet holes at
the back of the firebox.
5.ꢂ If a chimney fire occurs shut all air controls immediately to
close the appliance down, and evacuate all persons from
the building before calling the fire brigade. Do not re-enter
the building until it is confirmed safe to do so.
8.ꢀ Do not place ash in a bin made from plastic or any other
combustible material.
5.5 Following a chimney fire do not use the appliance until it is
inspected, by a HETAS (GB only)/INFO (Eire only) registered
installer, to confirm that the appliance is safe to use, or
make any repairs required before re-use. Only genuine
Stovax replacement parts are to be used to keep your
appliance in safe and efficient working order.
9. RECOMMENdEd FUElS
9.1 Wood: Burn only seasoned timber, with a moisture content
of less than ꢀ0% with a recommended cut length of
ꢁ00mm. In most cases, this would require drying cut wood
for 1ꢀ to 18 months before use. Poor quality timber could
cause low combustion efficiency, produce large amounts of
harmful condensation, which could reduce the effectiveness
of the airwash system, and ultimately the life of the stove.
5.6 After any chimney fire it is recommended that the chimney
system be inspected and swept by a NACS registered
(UK only) chimney sweep, to confirm that the system is
structurally sound and free from any obstructions before
re-use.
do not burn construction timber, painted, impregnated
/ treated wood, manufactured board products or pallet
wood.
6. SEASONAl USE
The symptoms of poor performance related to poor quality
wood include: -
6.1 If the stove is not to be used during the warmer periods of
the year it is recommended to clean and service the stove,
as detailed in the Maintenance and Servicing section on

• Dirty glass,
• Rapid creosote build-up in the chimney,
• Low heat output,
• Short burn times, excessive fuel consumption and
blue/grey smoke from the chimney.
10. BURNING PERFORMANCE
A number of factors can affect the performance of the
Huntingdon stove. Some of these are listed.
10.1 Fuel Quality (Wood)
To help avoid large build-ups of tars and creosote within
the stove and the flue system, it is recommended to burn
at high output for at least ꢁ0 minutes each day. The use of
Stovax Protector chimney cleaner will also help to reduce
this problem (Stovax Part No. 700ꢀ).
Use only seasoned wood with a moisture content of
less than ꢀ0%. Well seasoned logs should have the bark
beginning to lift and peel away, along with deep cracks
radiating from the centre of the log. Logs should feel lighter
than fresh cut wood of a similar size and sound hollow
when struck against each other. Logs should not feel damp
to the touch, have any visible moisture oozing from them or
moss and fungal growths on them.
9.ꢀ Solid fuel: Burn only manufactured briquetted smokeless
fuels, listed as suitable for use with closed heating stoves.
do not burn bituminous coal, ‘petro-coke’ or other
petroleum based fuels, as this will invalidate the product
guarantee.
Symptoms of poor performance related to wet woods
include:
• Difficulty getting a fire going and keeping it burning well,
• Smoky fires with little flame,
• Dirty glass,
9.ꢁ Fuel consumption at nominal heat output.

(multi-fuel)
This is caused by a lack of combustion air entering the
firebox causing combustion gases to build up in the firebox
and periodically ignite as small explosions, causing smoke to
puff out of the appliance air inlets and other openings. The
problem will often occur if the air controls are shut soon
after adding new fuel to a very hot fire. To stop backpuffing
occurring open the air controls to increase the combustion
air and increase the burning rate.

10.ꢂ Flue draught
The chimney has two main functions, which are, to safely
remove the smoke, gases and fumes from the house, and
to provide a sufficient amount of draught (suction) in the
Huntingdon stove to ensure that the fire is kept burning.
Draught is caused by the rising hot air in the chimney when
the Huntingdon stove is lit.

Symptoms of poor performance related to flue draught
include:
10.6 Troubleshooting
STOVE GlASS BlACKENING:
• Excessive fuel consumption (high flue draught)
• Poor burning control, overheating (high flue draught)
• Wind noise from air controls (high flue draught)
• Difficulty getting a fire going and keeping it burning well
(low flue draught)
• Low heat output (low flue draught)
• Smoke entering room when doors opened (low flue
draught)
This occurs as a result of four possible causes:
1.
ꢀ.
Burning unseasoned wood – See page 8 (section 10.1)
for more information on how to identify when your wood
is ready for burning. Properly seasoned logs will have been
kept for a minimum of a year but are best burnt at ꢀ years.
The stove being burned at too low a temperature - A
good working temperature is ꢁ00-500° F (1ꢀ0 – ꢀ50° C).
A stove pipe thermometer will help identify this problem.
(Stovax part no ꢁ0ꢂ6). Burning the stove with the airwash
control fully open for a period of around ꢀ0 minutes ought
to cure this. This might be caused by damping your stove
down overnight.
The construction, position, size and height of the chimney
are all factors that affect the performance of the flue
draught.
Other factors that can effect the flue draught include:
ꢁ.
Problems with your flue – in particular insufficient air
pull. If your flue is not doing its job efficiently this can
cause blackening of the glass. A flue which is too short,
experiences a downdraft, needs lining or has too many
bends can promote blackening. If you suspect your flue may
be contributing to the blackening of your stove glass you
should contact the installer or a flue specialist.
• Trees or other buildings nearby causing turbulence
• High and gusty winds
• Outside temperature
• Outside weather conditions
• Incorrect additional ventilation to building
• Blocked flue / chimney
RIddlING MECHANISM JAMMING:
For advice on the correction of persistent flue problems
consult a qualified solid fuel heating engineer before
continuing to use the Huntingdon stove.
This occurs when fine ash builds up under the riddling bars
preventing their movement. To prevent this we recommend
that you follow a regular cleaning routine for the inside
of your stove, taking care to lift out the riddling bars and
remove all ash. Replace riddling bars when cleaning is
complete.
10.5 Weather conditions
The weather conditions outside the building could have an
effect on the burning performance of the Huntingdon stove.
These could include:
STOVE GlASS CRACKING:
Please ensure when replacing the glass in your stove that
you do not over tighten the screws on the glass clips as this
will cause stress in the glass and with the intense heating
and cooling of burning your stove it may well cause the
glass to crack.
Windy days - Smoking from the appliance. This could
be caused by turbulent airflow around chimney terminal,
possibly caused by the position of other buildings or
obstacles nearby. This problem is, also, sometimes
associated with oversize chimneys, which may even have
downdraught problems on calm days. If smoking is a
common problem on windy days make a note of the wind
strength and direction before consulting your appliance
installer, who will advise you on possible solutions to the
problem, after visiting the installation.
STOVE IS PROdUCING TAR:
You can recognise this from the following traits:
Very strong pungent smell shortly after the stove is lit and
as the stove heats up, glass blackening and, possibly, can be
seen as a thick, brown and sticky material oozing from your
stove pipe joints.
damp / Rainy days – These sometimes result in problems
when lighting and maintaining the fire, due to the lower
flue temperatures and smaller difference between indoor
and outdoor temperatures reducing the flue draught. Also,
rain water running down the inside of the chimney reducing
the flue temperatures. To help with this problem care must
be taken to use good quality kindling wood, when starting
the fire, and running the stove at a higher heat setting than
normal for a period after start-up to fully heat the chimney.
It could be possible to fit a rain cowl to the chimney to
reduce this problem. Your appliance installer should advise
you on possible solutions.
This is caused by burning damp wood and burning your
stove at too low a temperature. To resolve this only use well
seasoned wood and ensure your stove is operating in the
ideal temperature range. Tar is a major cause of chimney
fires - if you experience problems with tar build up, please
consult a chimney sweep before continued use of your
stove.
Ideal working temperature range is 1ꢁ0°C and ꢀꢂ0°C
(ꢀ70°F – ꢂ65°F). If you fail to close down your primary air
control once the stove has heated up to this range you may
cause your stove to overfire and the temperature to exceed
the ideal range. Overfiring can cause permanent damage to
your stove and will invalidate your warranty.
If the Huntingdon stove emits smoke into the room
continuously close the air controls and allow the stove to go
out, and ventilate the room to clear the fumes.
do not re-light the appliance until the cause of the
problem is identified and rectified.

when handling firebricks, as they can become fragile after a
period of use.
Before any cleaning is carried out, allow stove to cool
thoroughly to avoid risk of burns.
ꢂ.ꢀ Vacuum clean any remaining ash and debris from the inside
of the stove. Stovax offer a filter/collection attachment for
your vaccuum cleaner to protect it from fire ash. Ash Clean
(Stovax Part No. ꢀ091).
1.1 We would recommend that your Huntingdon stove be
cleaned fully on a regular basis, according to the level of
use. Attention should be given to cleaning the baffle system,
flueways and removing ash. Regular cleaning and preventive
maintenance will help give many years of safe use.
ꢂ.ꢁ Clean the internal surfaces of the stove using a wire brush
and scraper as required. Vacuum and brush the resulting
debris from the stove.
1.ꢀ The external paintwork may be cleaned using warm soapy
water and a soft clean cloth. Wipe dry with a soft clean
cloth before re-lighting. Do not leave unit without drying, as
this may cause rust. To refresh painted finishes it is possible
to re-paint using Stovax Thermolac stove paint.
ꢂ.ꢂ Clean the grate parts with a wire brush, and check the parts
for any damage. Replace any damaged parts.
ꢂ.5 Check and clean the firebricks with a soft brush. Replace
any broken bricks. It is normal for some surface damage to
occur during use and the life will depend on the type of
fuels burnt and the level of use. Damaged bricks should be
replaced as soon as possible.
1.ꢁ Enamel finishes may be cleaned using warm soapy water
and a soft clean cloth. Wipe dry with a soft clean cloth
before re-lighting. Do not leave unit without drying, as this
may cause rust. do not use abrasive cleaner or cleaning
pads to clean enamel finishes.
ꢂ.6 Re-fit cleaned internal parts.
2. ClEANING GlASS
ꢂ.7 Remove the glass from the door, see section 7, and discard
all old rope seals.
ꢀ.1 While the correct use of the Airwash system, and good quality
fuel, will generally keep the glass clean when the appliance is
used you may sometimes need to clean the glass.
ꢂ.8 Remove the door rope seal from the outer edge of the door
and clean the old glue from the door sealing rope groove.
ꢀ.ꢀ This can be done as follows. Allow the Huntingdon stove
to cool fully, never attempt to clean hot glass. Any deposits
can be removed using a soft cloth and Stovax Glass Cleaner.
ꢂ.9 Clean the door glass using Stovax Stove Glass cleaner and
a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners to remove tar or
soot deposits from the glass.
ꢀ.ꢁ Before re-lighting the appliance, dry the glass fully.
ꢂ.10 Replace the glass edge seal with new and re-fit the glass into
place in the door.
ꢀ.ꢂ do not use abrasive cleaner or cleaning pads.
ꢂ.11 Fit new door rope seal, gluing it in place with Stovax
Thermic Seal rope adhesive. Press the new door sealing
rope into the locating groove, placing the joint in the
middle of the lower edge of the door. When fitting new
door seals we recommend closing the stove door and
leaving for at least 1ꢀ hours before using. This allows the
adhesive to fully bond to the seal before use.
3. CHIMNEY SWEEPING
ꢁ.1 We would recommend that to maintain the safe and
efficient use of the appliance the flue / chimney is inspected
and swept at least once a year, by a NACS registered (UK
only)/INFO registered (Eire only) chimney sweep, who will
