Plan to Cure Your Stove to Avoid Frustration

Filed under: home — admin @ 6:36 am

For most homeowners, installing new Festbrennstoffkessel is a lengthy process. First they put considerable effort into researching and selecting the best Holzheizkessel for their needs. Next comes the installation, and even modern homes may require weatherproofing to maximize wood burning efficiency. Last but not least, dry, seasoned wood must be acquired and organized for fuel.

 

When it’s finally time to think about starting their first fires in their newly installed antike Kamine, homeowners have to manage one more thing: curing their new stove. Overlooking this final but all important step can lead to a horrific first few fires and an incredibly frustrating experience.

 

New Kaminofen come with instruction manuals homeowners should read thoroughly prior to use. In addition to your manual, you can rely on the individual who sold you your new stove for instructions on how to cure it. If you still have questions, you can always contact the wood burner’s manufacturer directly.

 

Curing a new wood burning stove involves the release of a significant amount of noxious, but not usually toxic fumes and smoke. As the paint on the stove cures, the amount of smoke and fumes is reduced and then eventually eliminated. Plan to cure your stove when you can open all of the windows in your home, and consider placing box fans facing outwards to remove the fumes and smoke from your home. If at all possible, spend several hours out of the home during curing.
