1. TONWERK STORAGE HEATING
STOVE – A SWISS QUALITY PRODUCT
Thank you for buying a Tonwerk storage heating stove – we are sure you will
derive as much pleasure from our product as we do.
These instructions contain interesting and informative facts and all you need
to know about the subjects of heating, wood, and operating your Tonwerk
storage heating stove. Please read these instructions carefully before using
your stove for the first time and keep them in a safe place.
WE ARE SATISFIED WITH OUR WORK WHEN YOU HAVE NO MORE QUESTIONS.
In our energy-conscious times we have made it our mission to extract the
maximum possible energy from the raw material wood with the minimum possible emissions.
We want to utilise effectively wood, fire, and the heat they generate.
WE HAVE CREATED A LIVING SPACE FOR YOUR WOOD FIRE –
THE TONWERK STORAGE HEATING STOVE!
Your Tonwerk storage heating stove never fails to fascinate with its extraordinary design and a hear t of the most innovative technology – handmade in
Switzerland!
1.1 THE STORAGE HEATING STOVE
The storage heating stove is a fireplace made of ceramic or natural stone.
The energy or heat generated by burning wood is absorbed by the ceramic storage core. Once the wood has completely burned, this core, as a heat exchanger,
radiates the stored energy in the form of heat at a carefully dosed rate, releasing it over its surface for an extended time into the environment.
1.2 THE RADIATED HEAT
The human organism responds to radiated heat with a particularly pleasant
feeling. It is physiologically beneficial and soothing.
Since prehistoric times humans have utilised and enjoyed radiated heat. It
is transmitted by electromagnetic waves in the infrared range. Radiated heat
travels through air without loss and without heating this. Not until it encounters solid bodies like walls, objects, and also people does it generate heat.
This effect is familiar to everyone from sunny winter days.
Even when the air is very cold you can feel the warm rays of the sun on your
skin.
It makes you feel a temperature that is higher than the actual air temperature.
This explains the great benefits and the sustainability of radiated heat.
Next to stone and
bone, wood is one of
the oldest working
materials in the world.
i
YOU CAN LET THE SUN
SHINE WHENEVER YOU
WANT TO!
A TONWERK STORAGE
HEATING STOVE GIVES
YOU THAT FEEL-GOOD
HEAT, EVERY DAY

2. INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT WOOD AND
THE ENVIRONMENT
CO2
CO2
O2
O2
2.2 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Burning firewood releases only as much CO2 as the tree has absorbed from the
atmosphere during its growth.
And when the firewood comes from nearby there are no additional CO2 emissions
from transport.
Wood rotting in the forest generates the same amount of CO2 as the same wood
burning.
2.1 WHAT IS WOOD?
Do you know what you are putting in the firing chamber of your Tonwerk storage
heating stove when you are filling it with wood?
This is 50% carbon, 42% oxygen, 6% hydrogen, and 2% mineral substances, nitrogen, oils, resins, tanning agents, and colorants.
… that is wood!
THE FUTURE HAS NOW
BEGUN!
Page 4
2.3 BUYING FIREWOOD
Where can I get my firewood?
BUYING READY-TO-BURN FIREWOOD
Regenerated ready-to-burn firewood
can be purchased from dealers:
• stove-ready, stored for at least two
years
• predried, stored for one year
• fresh from the forest
Every dealer has a wood moisture meter that they use to test the wood they
buy. The ideal residual moisture is
12–15% and should be no higher!
TREATING FIREWOOD YOURSELF
Unseasoned wood can be purchased
from the forestry office, owners of
woodland, or the community:
• trunks lying in the forest
• seasoned trunks by the wayside
Whether you have cut your own wood
or bought it, the important thing is:
the wood should be dried for at least
two years before it is burned!
2.4 DRYING AND STORING
WOOD
DRYING
The water content of firewood has a
great effect on its burning properties.
Your wood should be as dry as possible. Only then can it give off much
heat and burn without polluting the
environment. Freshly cut wood can
contain between 45 and 60% moisture
depending on the season and type. After the optimal drying this water content drops to below 15%. Depending
on the wood type this can take about
two years, and even longer for some
kinds.
STORAGE
If firewood is to dry thoroughly, it must
be cut into small pieces.
Check this yourself: the circumference
should be max 20–25 cm. Store the
wood out of doors, protect it from rain
and snow, and make sure it is well ventilated.
2.5 WOOD TYPES AND
CALORIFIC VALUE
The calorific value describes the heat
energy released when one kilogram
of fuel is burned under specific conditions.
The calorific value is based on the volume specified in stacked or solid cubic
metres.
The various wood types have various
calorific values:
Damp wood damages
your stove and reduces
the calorific value!
!
What you must not
burn: refuse, wet wood,
briquettes!

STOVE CAN BE FIRED WITH ALL OF
THE ABOVE WOOD TYPES.

2.7 WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WOOD BURNS
Burning or combustion is a rapid oxidation of substances forming flames. When wood
burns, the oxygen in the air combines with the carbon and hydrogen in the wood. In
the process, energy is released in the form of heat and light. In the ideal case the
products of complete combustion are only carbon dioxide, ashes (formed primarily of
the wood’s mineral constituents), and water.
The combustion process on firewood can be divided roughly into three phases.
Heating and drying – In this first phase the water and other volatile substances
stored in the firewood evaporate.
Pyrolysis – In this second phase the firewood decomposes at temperatures from
about 150 °C.
Actual combustion – In this third phase the gases formed in the first two phases react with additional oxygen from the atmosphere to form carbon dioxide and water.
Also any remaining charcoal burns completely with time in the combustion zone.
Only ashes remain as the single residue of combustion. Each phase of combustion
can be observed very easily on an open fire.
Burning wood is a
proactive contribution
to climate protection!
i
A fire needs three
things: fuel, oxygen,
and heat.

5. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 BEFORE FIRING THE
STOVE FOR THE FIRST
TIME
Dear Customer,
You have now been instructed by one
of our specialised dealers on how
to fire your Tonwerk storage heating
stove.
In these operating instructions we
wish to set down each step that you
must take if you are to encounter no
problems when operating your Tonwerk storage heating stove.
Read through these operating instructions carefully and keep them in a safe
place. Your specialised dealer will be
pleased to assist you with any questions you may have.
5.3.1 WHEN THE STOVEPIPE
PAINT DRIES
When the stove is fired for the first few
times the paint on the stovepipe emits
an odour when it dries.
Make sure that the combustion chamber is completely filled. The Tonwerk
storage heating stove then reaches
its optimal operating temperature and
the paint dries faster.
Also make sure the room is well ventilated during this phase.
5.3 GENERAL INFORMATION
5.3.3 HEATING IN THE
TRANSITION TIME
AND IN DIFFICULT
CONDITIONS
In damp or foggy weather, at outdoor
temperatures from 15 °C, and during
the transition time you are advised to
light a pilot fire before firing the stove
proper. This serves to displace the
cold, heavy air in the chimney and to
create the right conditions for the optimal extraction of smoke.

5.3.4 PREPARATIONS FOR
FIRING
Have ready an adequate supply of
chopped firewood, ecofriendly lighting
aids, and kindling. You are best storing
the wood in a warm room for a number
of days before firing.
Tonwerk storage heating stove.
Please make sure that there is adequate incoming air for multiple installations.
This pilot fire is lit with paper in the
chimney’s inspection aperture until extraction is assured.

Page 6
Place the firewood inclined slightly towards the back in the firing chamber.
The
weight of the firewood presses down on the grate and the combustion air supply
is opened.
Place an ecofriendly lighting aid at the centre and two handfuls of kindling over
the top.
Bear in mind that the stove must be filled completely with small pieces of chopped
wood 33 cm in length.
If you have a supply of mixed wood types, you can burn these together.
Now ignite the lighting aid and lock the door. The wood burns from top to bottom.
Only when there is a strong blaze does the wood release its whole energy that can
then be absorbed by the storage stone.
6.1 ADDING MORE WOOD – FOR MORE HEAT
If you want more heat simply add another two pieces of firewood while there are
enough flames visible.
Once the wood has burned completely and all flames have extinguished, the combustion air supply closes automatically when there is no more weight on the grate.
The heat reservoir is therefore prevented from cooling too quickly.
You can enjoy the radiated heat for hours.
7. CLEANING AND CARING FOR YOUR STOVE
The added wood ignites within a few minutes and burns from bottom to top.
Rough surfaces on the outer cladding can be vacuumed off with an upholstery attachment. Polished surfaces are cleaned
with a spray-wet cloth. The provided cleaning stone is used to remove stubborn soiling. Under no circumstances must
you use hard brushes or chemical cleaning agents.
The optimal functionality is obtained when the chimney, stovepipe, and stove are cleaned at least once a year.
7.1 EMPTYING THE ASHES
Empty the ash drawer only when it has cooled completely.
When the stove is used every day, you should empty the ash drawer once a week.
Hook in the ash box and move the lever (1) several times to the right and back. Take out
and empty the ash box.
1
7.2 CLEANING THE WINDOW
Press together the locking hook (1) and lift up and out the outer ring with the window (2). Clean this with a moist cloth and some ashes.
Repeat for stubborn soiling or use a special flue window cleaner.
Put the window back in and make sure that the locking hook engages.

7.3 CLEANING THE SMOKE FLUE
Remove the outer ring with the window.
Remove the rear panel (1) from the combustion chamber.
Clean the stovepipe and the smoke flue and vacuum off residue.
Put the parts back in their original positions and make sure that the locking hook
engages.
