Sense Smoke Control Kit Instructions
Compact stacking
Compact stacking will make the wood burn slower
as wood can only reach the outside of the fire. This
will cause the fire to smoulder and produce smoke.
Do not fill to more than

capacity.
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.
Fuel overloading
The maximum amount of fuel specified in this
manual should not be exceeded, overloading can
cause excess smoke.
2 After refuelling:
Burn the new logs at high output for 5 minutes
before closing the air control.
Adjusting the burn rate using the Secondary air
inlet.
Do not close the air control until the fire is
burning well.
If the fire subsides when the air control is
closed, open the control to re-establish the
flames, ensuring to close it again afterwards.
3 Experience establishes settings to suit personal
preferences.
4 Do not burn large amounts of fuel with the air con-
trol closed for long periods of time. This reduces
the glass cleaning effect and causes tars and creo-
sotes to build-up in the appliance and flue system
and will produce excessive amounts of smoke.

Refuelling the Appliance
1 Open the air control fully and burn for a few min-
utes before refuelling.
Rake the embers evenly over the fire bed to
establish a glowing firebed.
If the fire bed is low add a small amount of
kindling wood to help re-establish the fire and
prevent excess smoke.
Open stacking
Open stacking allows oxygen to easily reach every
part of the fire.
