Load bearing underlay
All of the products in our portfolio are classified as light-duty firepla­ces; in most cases, there is no need to reinforce the floor, so that you can typically use the normal floor.
However, you should make sure that the load bearing underlay can bear the weight of the wood-burning stove and that of the chimney.
Floor plate
If you are setting up the stove on a flammable floor, observe national and local regulations on the size of the non-flammable underlay that covers the floor around the stove. Your local Scan dealer can advise you on regulations concerning flammable materials in the vicinity of your stove.
The idea behind the floor plate is that it protects the floor and flam­mable material against sparks. The floor plate can be made of steel or glass, and the stove can be set up on brick, natural stone or similar materials.
This Scan wood-burning stove has an integrated floor plate, and can thus be set up on any flammable material without a protective
underlay.
Height adjustment of stove
The Scan 66 has four adjustment screws under the stove. Use the adjustment screws to get the stove to stand straight and level.
Tilt the wood-burning stove and adjust the adjustment screws.
If you are using a shaped floor plate, you should adjust the stove upwards to allow the plate to be inserted under the front of the stove.

Existing chimney and pre-fabricated element chimney
If you intend to connect your stove to an existing chimney, it makes sense to contact an authorised Scan dealer, or a local chimney sweep for advice. These experts will also let you know if your flue needs renovating.
When connecting a pre-fabricated element chimney, follow the manufacturer’s connection instructions for the relevant chimney type.
Connection between stove and steel chimney
Your Scan dealer, or local chimney sweep, can advise you on choosing a make and type of steel chimney. This ensures that the chimney will match your wood-burning stove. As a general rule, the length of the flue should not be less than 3,5 m measured from the top of the wood-burning stove.
Some weather or installation conditions might require another length.
Choosing the wrong length or diameter of steel chimney could impair functionality.
Always observe the chimney vendor‘s instructions precisely.
Requirements for chimney
The chimney must be labelled T400 and G for soot testing.
If the chimney is installed as an extension of the stove and has a length of at least 4 metres, a 5" chimney can be used.
If the stove is installed with elbow pipes or other bends in the chim­ney, a 6" chimney can be used.
Connection with 90° elbow pipe
If you intend to use an elbow pipe with the Scan 66 we recommend the use of a curved elbow pipe to improve the draft.
If you are connecting your stove using a sharp elbow bend, the clea­nout door should be in the vertical section, such that the horizontal part can be cleaned through it.
Connecting piece / rear outlet
The stove is prepared from the factory for top outlet.
In order to change the stove from top outlet to rear outlet you must first remove the two lateral steel plates.

Fresh air intake
In a well-insulated house, the air used up by the burning process has to be replaced. This particularly applies to houses with mecha­nical ventilation. There are different ways of making sure that an air exchange takes place. The most important thing is to ensure that there is a supply of air to the room where the wood stove is located. The external wall vent must be located as close to the wood stove as possible, and you must be able to close it when you are not using the wood stove.
National and local building regulations must be followed with regard to the connection of fresh-air intake.
Closed combustion system
You should use the closed combustion system for the wood-burning stove if you live in a newly-built, airtight home. Outside air for com­bustion is connected through a ventilation pipe via the wall or floor.
It must be possible to shut off the ventilation pipe with a valve, when the stove is not in use.
• Minimum Ø100 mm ventilation pipe, maximum length: 6 m with a maximum of one bend
The connecting piece for external combustion air is to be found in the packaging.
If the external combustion air is connected at the rear, the dis­mounted plate must be mounted on the hole for external air in the bottom of the stove.
NOTE: if the stove has a fresh air connexion or closed combustion, the ventilation pipe must be open, when the stove is in use!

The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke control area. It is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a furnace or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area. It is also an offence to acquire an "unauthorised fuel" for use within a smoke control area unless it is used in an "exempt" appliance ("exempted" from the controls which generally apply in the smoke control area).
In England appliances are exempted by publication on a list by the Secretary of State in accordance with changes made to sections 20 and 21 of the Clean Air Act 1993 by section 15 of the Deregulation Act
2015. Similarly in Scotland appliances are exempted by publication on a list by Scottish Ministers under section 50 of the Regulatory Reform (Scotland) Act 2014.
In Wales and Northern Ireland these are authorised by regulations made by Welsh Ministers and by the Department of the Environment respectively.
Further information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/smoke-control-area-rules
Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean Air Act 1993 including designation and supervision of smoke control areas and you can contact them for details of Clean Air Act requirements”
You can use any type of untreated well seasoned wood as fuel.
The Scan 66 has been recommended as suitable for use in smoke con­trol areas when burning wood.
Refuelling on to a low fire bed
If there is insufficient burning material in the firebed to light a new fuel charge, excessive smoke emission can occur. Refuelling must be carried out onto a sufficient quantity of glowing embers and ash that the new fuel charge will ignite in a reasonable period. If there are too few embers in the fire bed, add suitable kindling to prevent excessive smoke

CB-technique (Clean Burning)
The wood-burning stove is equipped with CB technology. In order to ensure an optimal combustion of released gases under the incinera­tion process, air will pass through a specially developed canal system. The heated air is led into the combustion chamber through the small holes at the rear of the burn chamber. This airflow is driven by the combustion rate and thus cannot be regulated.
Primary air
The primary air regulation mechanism is used for lighting the fire, or to boost the burning process when you put wood on. The primary air vent can be 0 - 30% open if you use hard wood fuel such as oak and beech. You can close the primary air vent if you use soft wood such as birch or pine for fuel.
Settings for normal load: 0 - 30%
Secondary air
Secondary air is pre-heated and fed indirectly to the fire. At the same time, the secondary airflow cleans the glass pane to avoid soot build­up. If you over-restrict the secondary airflow, soot can build up on the glass pane. The secondary airflow determines the heat output from your wood stove.
Settings for normal load: 50 - 70%
Baffle plates
The baffle plates are located in the upper part of the combustion chamber. The plates hold back smoke, making sure it stays inside the combustion chamber for a longer time before escaping through the chimney. This reduces the smoke gas temperature as the gases have more time to dissipate heat to the wood-burning stove. The baffle plates must be removed for sweeping; see „Maintaining your wood-burning stove“. Note that the baffle plates are made of porous, ceramic material, and can break. Exercise care when working. The baffle plates are subject to wear and tear, and are not covered by the warranty.
Ash drawer
Open the glass door to access the ash pan which is located below the combustion chamber. Keep the ash pan closed at all times when the wood stove is lit. The ash drawer must not be overfilled and must therefore be emp­tied at regular intervals.
Log guard
The stove has a thick glass log guard that is easy to take out for clea­ning (use normal glass cleaner).

Continuous firing
It is important to reach as high a temperature as possible in the combustion chamber. This makes the most efficient use of the wood stove and fuel, and ensures a clean burning process. At the same time, this avoids soot build-up on the combustion chamber walls and glass. While the stove is lit, you should not see any smoke, but just air movement that indicates the burning process. After completing the lighting phase, you should have a good layer of embers in the wood stove; you can then start stoking up the stove. Lay 1-3 pieces of wood, of about max 1,7 kg weight with max 10 cm diameter and a length of about 25 cm onto the fire. Note! The wood must catch fire quickly; this is why we recommend setting the primary airflow to full power. Running the stove at too low a temperature and with too little primary air can lead to defla­gration of the gases, and thus cause damage to the stove. When stoking up with wood, always open the glass door carefully to avoid smoke escaping. Never stoke up with wood while the fire is still burning nicely.
Environmentally-Friendly Heating
Avoid restricting your wood-burning stove to an extent where no flames are visible during the degasifying period, as this leads to par­ticularly inefficient heating. The gases released by the wood do not burn due to the low temperature in the combustion chamber. Part of the gas condenses in the wood-burning stove and flue system as soot, and this could lead to your chimney catching fire. The smoke that exits the chimney is bad for the environment and has an unple­asant smell.
Lighting
We recommend the use of fire starters, or similar products, which are available from your Scan dealer. Using fire starters helps to light the wood quicker, and keeps the burning process clean. Never use liquid lighting fuels!
"Top down" lighting
Important! Always use a top-down lighting. The stove is constructed for this in order to give the best exploitation.
2 pieces of wood approx. 20 - 25 cm long with a weight of approx. 0.5 – 0.6 kg per piece (image 1)
The wood must not cover the bottom entirely and must never be pla­ced higher than the Clean-Burn rail at the rear of the stove.
1 pieces of wood approx. 0.3 – 0.4 kg (image 2) 8 - 12 thin sticks of about 20 cm with a total weight of approx. 0,5 kg (image 3 - 5).3 fire
starters.
Place logs, sticks and fire starters in the combustion chamber as shown on images 1 - 5.
Set the primary and secondary airflow controls to maximum for about 20 - 30 minutes. When the larger pieces of wood have caught fire properly, you can set the primary and secondary airflow to the desired level.
"Top down" lighting gives a more environmentally friendly start to your fire and helps to keep the glass area as clean as possible.

Using your stove in the spring or autumn
In the transition period (spring/autumn), where there is less need for heating, we recommend to make a single „top down“ lighting, perhaps with one stoke up to ensure that the combustion chamber lining burns clean again.
Why you need a chimney
The chimney is the wood-burning stove‘s motor; it‘s performance decides how well your stove will work. The draft in the chimney creates a vacuum in the wood-burning stove. The vacuum draws the smoke out of the stove, and takes in air through the combustion air baffle to fuel the burning process. Combustion air is also used for the airwash system that keeps the window clear of soot. The draft in the chimney is caused by the difference in temperatures inside and outside the chimney. The higher the temperature differen­ce is, the better the draft in the chimney will be. It is thus important for the chimney to reach operating temperature before you adjust the damper to restrict combustion in the stove (a brickwork chimney will take longer to reach operating temperature than a steel chim­ney). It is very important to reach operating temperature as quickly as possible on days on which the draft in the chimney is poor due to unfavorable wind and weather conditions. Make sure the fuel ignites as quickly as possible (with visible flames). Chop the wood into parti­cularly small pieces; use an extra fire lighter etc. After longer periods of disuse, check the chimney flue for blockage. You can connect several units to the same chimney. But make sure check with your chimney sweep to observe local regulations. No matter how good your chimney is, it will not perform well if you do not use it correctly. On the other hand a poor chimney, may give you acceptable results if you use it correctly.
Using your stove in various weather conditions
Wind blowing on the chimney can have a great effect on how your stove reacts in various wind conditions; you may need to adjust the airflow to achieve good burning results. Fitting a damper in the flue pipe may also help as it will give you the ability to regulate the draught in changing wind conditions. Fog can also have a great influence on how well a chimney draws; you may again need to adjust the airflow settings to achieve good burning results.
General Notes
Please note! Parts of the wood-burning stove, especially the outer surfaces, become hot during use. Please exercise due care.
Never empty ashes into a flammable container. Ashes can contain glowing embers long after you finish using your wood stove.
While the stove is not in use you can close the valves to avoid draught through the stove.
After longer breaks you should check the smoke outlet paths for blockages before lighting.
Chimney fires
In case of a chimney fire, keep the stove door, the ash container, and the valves on the stove closed. In case of emergency, call the fire ser­vice.
It is recommended that you get a chimney sweep to check the chim­ney before using the stove again.
Handling fuels
Selecting Wood/Fuel
You can use any type of wood as firewood, however, harder types, such as beech, ash, are generally better for heating as they burn more evenly and create less ash. Other wood types like maple, birch and spruce are excellent alternatives.
Handling
Firewood is best if you fell the tree, and saw and split the wood, before May 1st. Remember to cut the logs to match the size of your wood-burning stove‘s combustion chamber. We recommend a dia­meter of 6-10 cm. The length should be about 6 cm shorter than that of the combustion chamber to leave enough space for air to circulate. Firewood with a greater diameter needs splitting. Split wood dries faster.
Storing
You need to store the sawn and split firewood in a dry place for 1-2 years before burning. Wood dries faster if you stack it in an airy place. Before use, store the firewood for a few days at room temperature. Note that wood absorbs moisture during the autumn and winter seasons.
Moisture
To avoid environmental issues, and for optimum burning, wood has to be perfectly dry to be suitable for use as firewood. The max. residual moisture in the wood should not exceed 20%. A moisture content of 15-18% yields best results. As an easy way of checking if wood is dry, just knock two pieces of wood together. If the wood is moist, the sound will be dull. If you use damp wood, most of the heat it produces will be used to evaporate the water. The temperature in the wood stove does not rise, and the room is not sufficiently heated. Of course, this is not economical, and it will cause soot build up on the glass pane, in the stove, and in the chimney. Burning moist wood also causes pollution.
Understanding units for measuring wood
Various units of measurement are used for wood. Before you buy wood, it makes sense to familiarise yourself with the terms. There are various brochures, in public libraries for example, that cover this topic.
Use of the following as fuel is illegal
Painted, pressure impregnated, or glued wood, driftwood from the sea. Never burn chipboard, plastics, or chemically treated paper. These materials are dangerous to humans, to the environment, your wood stove, and your chimney. To keep a long story short – make sure you burn only quality firewood.
Firewood fuel value
The fuel value is different for different types of wood. In other words, you need to use more wood of certain types to achieve the same hea­ting performance. This Instruction Manual assumes that you will be using beech, which has a very high fuel value, and is also a wood that is easy to procure. If you use oak or beech wood fuel, note that these wood types have a greater fuel value than, say, birch. Make sure you use less fuel to avoid damage to the wood-burning stove.
Wood types Kg Dry wood/m3 Compared to beech
Hornbeam 640 110% Beech/Oak 580 100% Ash 570 98% Maple 540 93% Birch 510 88% Pine 480 83% Fir 390 67% Poplar 380 65%

Servicing
We recommend that the stove should have a comprehensive servicing at least once every two years. Servicing should include the following:
• Lubricate hinges using copper grease
• Check gaskets. Replace any that are broken or weak.
• Check combustion chamber door and riddling grate
• Check combustion chamber lining and baffle plates.
The stove must be serviced by a qualified fitter. Use only orignal spare parts.
Maintaining your wood-burning stove
Apart from regular chimney sweeping, your wood-burning stove does not require any regular maintenance. However, we recommend servicing at least once every two years
Use only original replacement parts for maintenance and repairs of your stove.
Note! Make sure the wood-burning stove is cold before starting maintenance or repair work.
Coated surfaces
Clean your wood-burning stove by dusting with a dry, lint-free cloth. If the topcoat is damaged, you can purchase a repair spray from your authorised Scan dealer. As slight differences in colour are possible, spray a larger area to achieve a natural transition for best results. For best results, apply repair spray when the wood-burning stove is hand-hot.
Cleaning the glass
Our wood-burning stoves are designed to prevent serious soot build up on the glass. The best way to achieve this is to make sure you have a sufficient combustion air supply. It is also important to use dry wood, and have a correctly dimensioned chimney.
Even if you follow all of our instructions, a slight film of soot can build up on the glass. You can easily remove this build up by cleaning with a dry cloth and glass cleaner. Please note that the glass cleaner is not to get into contact with the gaskets, as this can discolour the glass permanently.
Combustion chamber lining
Slight cracks can appear in the combustion chamber lining due to moisture, or to the heating/cooling process. These cracks have no influence on the heating performance or lifetime of your stove. However, if the lining starts to crumble, you must replace it. The com­bustion chamber lining is not covered by the warranty.
Gaskets
All wood-burning stoves have gaskets made of ceramic material fitted to the stove, the doors, and/or the glass. These gaskets are subject to wear and tear, and must be replaced when necessary.
Chimney sweeping and cleaning your wood-burning stove
Follow national and local chimney sweeping regulations. We recommend having the wood-burning stove cleaned regularly by the chimney sweep. Before starting to clean your wood-burning stove, and sweep the flue pipe, we recommend first removing the baffle plates.
Checking the stove
Scan A/S recommends that you check your stove thoroughly after sweeping/cleaning. Check all visible surfaces for cracks. Check that all joints are tight and that the seals sit correctly. Worn or deformed seals should be replaced.

Baffle plates
Please be careful when dismounting the baffle plates.
Lift up the lower baffle and dismount both pins. Then pull the plate downwards and take it out.
Push the upper baffle forwards so that it is freed from the fittings at the rear of the combustion chamber. Then take out the plate.
We refer to page 13 for a detailed description of the mounting/dis­mounting of the burn chamber plates.
MAINTENANCE
The door does not close
It may occur during transport that the locking device moves out if its correct position, so that the door does not close properly. This can easily be adjusted, see below.
