PREREQUISITES
BUILDING NOTICE
When you install a stove and/or erect a chimney, you
may have to give building notice to the local Planning
and Building Committee. Contact the Planning and
Building Committee in your municipality for up-to-
date information.
FLUE
Inserts from Keddy must be connected to a ue
approved for at least 350ºC.
When connecting the insert to an existing ue one
must make sure that there are no leaks before installation. To ensure this you may contact your local
chimney sweeper or a suited proesional before
starting the installation.
In order to enable a good function in your insert the
pressure (chimney draft) needs to be at least 12 pa
at nominell use. To ensure this we recommend that
the chimney should be at least 3,5 m and that the
ue has an area of 177 cm2.
COMBUSTION AIR
The combustion of wood requires air/supply air. The
inserts can be provided with an external air supply.
Mainly for properties with mechanical ventilation
.
The main reason for using an external air supply is to
counter the underpressure that can arise in houses
with mechanical ventilation. Normally it is not neces-
sary to use external air supply, since the installation
takes place in an existing replace which is designed
to perform in the atmosphere of the house.
A sheet metal drum is used as an outdoor air duct.
The connection diameter of the supply air duct to
the stove is 100 mm. If the duct is more than 3 m
long, the diameter of the sheet metal drum must be
increased to 125 mm. (A stove’s maximum need for
combustion air is approx. 20 m3/h)
The supply air must not be taken from crawl spaces.
If there is a crawl space, the sheet metal drum must
be extended to a valve in the foundation wall. If the
space is heated, the supply air channel must be insulated against condensation.

1. Before starting the installation, determine where in
the ue the mineral woll seal should be placed
.
Clean the inside of the hood with a steel brush remo-
ving soot and loose mortar. Remove the old damper
if it is an obstruction during installation.
2. Fix the support leg to the ange of the rst cast
iron tube. Fix the other tubes with joint glue and make
sure that the seals are tightly lled. Mount the mineral
wool on the top tube and x it wth the steel wire. The
top of the tube and the mineral wool must be level to
avoid soot building up adjacent to the tube.
Tip! Fix the cast iron tubes upside down on the oor
and wedge the seals with small roof nails for better
stability.
3. Bring the mounted tube pack to it´s designated
place so that it rests on the support leg. It is normally possible to remove the support leg when the
installation is nished and it can be used again in
other installations, thats why it is an accessorie.

4. Important! Be thorough in placing mineral wool
between the chimney walls and the upper tube. This
ensures that no heat is lost up into the chimney.Place
two thin wooden bars on the bottom of the open replace. Place the insert on the wooden bars and apply
joint glue to the connection on top of the insert. Slide
the insert into position directly beneath the tube pack.
5. To improve the circulation of hot air through the
replace one can open a hole in the hood of the open
replace. This is accomplished by drilling a series of
holes with a power drill and removing the bricks.
The hole can then be tted with a hot air grill. (Accessory)
6. Use a crowbar to lift the insert and place the cast
iron feet under the insert, the slightly higher one in the
back and the two others in the front. Adjust the position of the feet until the insert is level.
The Fire plate wich is placed on the bottom of the insert when delivered, is to be placed on the two ledges
near the inside ceiling of the insert.

7. The installation is now nished.
Make a nal check that joints are tightly sealed and
that the mineral woll is in a correct position.
The space between the insert and the open replace
can be tted with the Keddy guard of punshed steel
or forged steel.(accessories). Both guard systems can
be adapted to most openings in open replaces.

CARE & FIRING INSTRUCTIONS
Inserts from Keddy has been tested by the Swedish national Testing and Research Institute.
It has met all adequate requirements and has a useful efficiency of not less than 70%. For
the inserts to work optimally, it is of key importance that you follow the care and firing instructions below. Non-compliance will invalidate the warranty.
FUEL
Inserts from Keddy must be red with wood. Most
types of rewood can be used. The most suitable are
birch, beech, ash and elm, but conifers and oak can
also be used if they are mixed 50/50 with another
type of hardwood. Oak contains acids, which may affect the stove and chimney during combustion.
The rewood must be dry, i.e. with a maximum
moiusture content of 20%. If the re wood is moist,
an unnecessary amount of energy is used boiling
the water away before it starts burning normally.
Moreover, this forms large amounts of soot and tar,
which are deposited on the walls of the hearth and
chimeny, which in turn signicantly increases the risk
of a chimney re.
Moist rewood also results in poor combustion, which
leads to greater smoke generation with sooty glass
and deterioration of the local environment as a con-
sequence.
To be certain you will have dry wood when the
heating season begins, it must be cut in the winter.
The wood is then stored in a ventilated place under
a roof and left to dry during the spring and summer.
Before using the wood, you should keep it indoors
for a couple of days so there is time for the surface
moisture to evaporate.
WARNING! It is absolutely forbidden to re the stove
with painted, glued (e.g. Masonite or chipboard) or
pressure-impregnated wood. It is also forbidden to
burn plastic and other waste in the stove. The com-
bustion of such fuels and substances releases acids
and heavy metals, which are very harmful for both
people and the environment.
BEFORE FIRING-WHEN THE INSERT IS NEW
After a week from installation you can start using your
insert. Start with half the prescribed amount of wood
for 1-2 hours the rst two to three days. This is to allow the nal hardening of the joint glue.
When you start using the insert there may be some
smell from the paint hardening. Therefore see to it that
you provide sucent ventilation of the room by opening a window if necessary. If you experience smell it
will normally go away when you have used the insert a
few times.
FIRING
In order to optimise the ring, you should measure
the amount of burned wood per hour. The insert is
not intended for an output exceeding 10 or 12 kwh
respective, i.e. never exceed the maximum amount of
recommended wood per hour. This not only impairs
the eciency, there is also a risk of overheating the
stove and chimney.
Suitable size and quantity of rewood for the inserts
as follows:
Kindling:
Length approx. 30-35 cm
Diameter approx 2-5 cm
Quantity approx 3 kg
Split logs:
Length approx 30-35 cm
Diameter approx 6-10 cm
Wood quantity at normal firing
Insert model 100 2 kg/hour
Insert model 200 2,5 kg/hour
Wood quantity at maximum firing
Insert model 100 3 kg/hour
Insert model 200 3,5 kg/hour
Firing instruction
1. Open the door. Put in some crumpled newspaper
or relighters.
2. Put in 3,0 kg of kindling. Pile up the wood crosswise.
3. Turn the dampers to startmode (see ill below) and
light the re.
(If the chimney is cold or if there are unfavourable weather conditions, you may need to keep
the door ajar during the first five minutes in order to establish a satisfactory chimney draught.)
4. Let the rst re burn down with full damper. This is
in order to allow the stove to reach its operating temperature quickly. Light a new re of the desired size.
Wait a couple of minutes until the re has started
burning properly. Then turn the damper to the left,
until you have achieved a calm and harmonic re.
Note! The reason why we want to achieve the optimum operating temperature in the stove quickly
is that the stove works most efficiently at this
temperature. This minimises the emissions and
maximises the heat generation.
To reach the startmode position you need to push the damper knobs
inwards and turn at max position.
GOOD TO KNOW
Since it can take some time for a cold chimney to
start working properly, i.e. to force the smoke in the
right direction, you can light a couple of sheets of
newspaper and hold them up in front of the smoke
shelf in the hearth. In this way, you eliminate the
downdraught and avoid the nuisance of smoke entering the room in the initial stage.
CARE AND FIRING INSTRUCTION Continue.....
If the premises are equipped with mechanical ventilation, i.e. if there are one or more fans to evacuate the
air from the building, there could be such a large negative pressure in the building that it could be dicult
to light the stove. As a suggestion, you could turn o
the ventilation temporarily or open a window until the
negative pressure has dissipated.
Firing with too coarsely chopped wood or with too
little oxygen supply, so-called smoulder combustion,
will increase the amount of soot and tar wich in turn
can lead to a re in your chimney.
REMOVAL OF SOOT AND MAINTENANCE
Soot must be removed at least once per season. The
soot from the chimney and the connections should be
removed by a chimney sweep. The smoke shelf must
be removed during sweeping.
If the glass becomes sooty, it is best to use a special
soot remover, which you can buy from your local
stove dealer. Never use detergents containing abrasive materials. This damages the glass.
TIP!
Soot stains on glass are easily removed as follows:
1. Moisten a piece of soft kitchen paper with water.
2. Rub some ash from the hearth onto the kitchen
paper.
3. Remove the soot stain by rubbing with the kitchen
paper.
When emptying the insert, the ash should be placed
in a steel vessel.
Pay attention to the risk of fire
when you throw out the ash, as the ash may contain live embers for a very long time.
Important! If you experience a re in your chimney
you must close the doors and dampers. If needed
call the re department. After a re in your chimney
a chimneysweeper need to inspect your installation
before taking it into renewed use.
