Introduction

Congratulations on your new Lotus Wood Stove

We sincerely trust that your Lotus Wood Stove will bring many happy hours
for you. However, to benefit fully from your investment, you should read these
instructions thoroughly. They contain some specific advice on how to benefit
fully from your stove – now, and in the years ahead. So, like all other directions
for use, keeping them in a safe place would be a good idea.

Lotus Wood Stoves are based on a long tradition; the first productions were
way back in 1979. Our production is now run in Langeskov on Funen in
Denmark, and is exported to a great many European markets. Our stoves are
produced to sound Danish tradition, and have given their owners good and
reliable service for years. So, once again, congratulations on your new Lotus
wood stove. We feel certain that putting your Lotus wood stove in operation
will inaugurate a warm and cosy beginning of a new home life for you.

This stove is intended for ”intermittent combustion”, a process achieved by
following the instructions of the guide below under ”Use of Stove”.

Mounting of Stove

Before your new stove will be ready to exude warmth and cosiness, you should
read these pages thoroughly. Pages reviewing the requirements for the
mounting and for the surroundings. Reference is also made to the fact that local
regulations, including those referring to national and European standards,
applying at all times must be met for the installation of your wood stove.

A warning should also be issued against any unauthorized change of your wood
stove. It should be added that the surfaces of your wood stove will become hot.

Lotus recommends that your stove be mounted by an authorized Lotus
distributor or by a fireplace service man recommended by an authorized Lotus
distributor.
NOTE: Your stove may not be put into use until the installation has been
approved by the local chimney sweep.

Further, please note that any air grates are to be placed so as not to block.

Distance to Combustible Material

For combustible material, such as combustible walls, furniutre, etc., for reasons
of safety a number of minimum distances apply. The following minimum

distances apply: Front 800mm

Distance to non-combustible material

For non-combustible material, there should be a distance of 80-100 mm in order
that the stove may release and distribute the heat while you may clean on and
around the stove.

Chimney

A good draught in your chimney is paramount to how well a stove will burn.
Note that there should be access to cleaning doors.

The effective height of your chimney should typically range between 3.5 and

4.5 metres. Effective height is to be understood as the distance from the stove
top to the top of the chimney. The inside diameter of the chimney should be
min. 150 mm (inside dimension).

All joints and connection points shall, of course, be tight, and the chimney shall
be able to provide a draught of a min. 1.2 mm water column (12 Pa), though
preferably a little more.

The wood stove may be connected to chimneys which are also used for other
purposes. To this end, the specific local conditions shall be assessed by a fitter
and/or chimney sweep.

Register

If your chimney has a register, it should
have a forced aperture of min. 20 cm2.

Mounting of Smoke Baffle Plates

Below, it has been shown how the smoke
baffle plates are to be placed when viewing
a section in the stove from the side.

Each smoke baffle plate is to be removed

separately. Both smoke baffle plates are
removed by lifting up at one side after which they may come clear at the other
side and be taken down into the combustion chamber and out of the door.
Similarly, they are put in place by leading them up slanting-wise at one side,
and then at the other side, and they are then put into place in the middle.

Combustion Air Supply

It is important for good and clean burning that adequate air be supplied to the
fire. To allow for this, it is, however, a condition that air be supplied to the
room in which the stove has been set up.

Certainly most rooms will have sufficient air, not least if some of the doors
between the rooms of the house are open. In special cases, an air valve may
have to be put in the exterior wall of the room in which the stove has been put
up.

Floor

When placing your new Lotus stove on the floor, it should be put on a non­combustible plate, for instance of steel or stone material. The plate should be so
large that it will reach a minimum of 30cm in front of the stove, and 15cm at
each side of the fireplace opening.
