1. WELCOME TO YOUR ESSE Welcome to the ESSE family. We’ve poured all of our knowledge, expertise and passion for designing and manufacturing market leading stoves, dating back to 1854, into producing your ESSE stove. All ESSE stoves are manufactured at our factory in Barnoldswick, Lancashire, and we’re confident that if appropriately installed, maintained and cared for, your ESSE stove will provide you with many years of room heating, comfort and joy.

3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CO ALARM Your installer should have ensured that you have a Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarm fitted, in the same room as your ESSE stove. This is a requirement of the BS EN 50292:2013 standard, and you should make sure that you are familiar with the operation of this essential piece of equipment. VENTILATION All stoves require a consistent supply of ‘combustion air’, to allow for the combustion of the fire.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS We recommend using wood logs with a moisture content of 15 – 20%. This is best achieved by either storing green wood yourself for a period of 12 – 18 months, and checking regularly with a moisture detector, or purchasing it from a reputable fire wood specialist, who is able to control the moisture content of their wood logs. For best results, we recommend your wood logs are cut to a length of 200mm, and a diameter / width of 120mm.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Tertiary Air Tertiary Air enters your ESSE stove from the rear, through the rear fire bricks, to provide additional combustion air directly into the flames. The Tertiary Air volume is not adjustable, but carefully positioned to help achieve improved efficiency and a clean burn. Airwash The Airwash is created by Controllable Combustion Air being pushed down the inside face of the glass window, creating an air curtain that helps reduce build-up of soot, keeping the glass clean.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS PARTICULATE REBURN™ TECHNOLOGY Your ESSE stove incorporates Particulate Reburn™ Technology, which dramatically reduces the emissions when burning wood logs, far above and beyond the demands of the Ecodesign requirements, (which comes into force in 2022). As such, your ESSE stove is one of the cleanest burning stoves available.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Catalytic Combustor Particle Filter The catalytic combustor is positioned above a particle filter, and both are held together on a sliding cartridge. As a result, both parts can be simply moved to one side, allowing smoke to ‘bypass’ them, and pass directly up the flue. The cartridge containing both parts can be removed for cleaning and inspection. The catalytic combustor and particle filter, located within a sliding cartridge.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Anticipated Life Well maintained and cared for, the Catalytic Combustor can remain effective for up to ten years. However, to ensure the continued cleanest burn, and maximum efficiency, we recommend replacing the Catalytic Combustor every five to six years. It is important to regularly inspect the Catalytic Combustor for signs of physical damage and build-up of creosote, which can lead to the airflow being blocked.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Removal and replacement of the Catalytic Combustor and Particle Filter 1. Remove the Bypass Boss from the shaft by unscrewing it anticlockwise. 2. Remove the top, side then rear fire bricks. 3. Slide the chamber containing the Catalytic Combustor and Particle Filter fully to the left, before carefully allowing it to swing down free. 4. Remove the Catalytic Combustor and then the Particle Filter from the cartridge, for cleaning or replacement, retaining the sealing rope. 5.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS LIGHTING YOUR ESSE STOVE When your ESSE stove is first lit, it may smoke, give off an odour, or make ‘ticking noises’. This is quite normal, as the materials used within its manufacture are heated up for the first time. These symptoms will stop within a short period, but ensure that the room is well ventilated during this ‘settling in’ process.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The door should only be opened during the initial lighting and refuelling of your ESSE stove. If left open during normal operation, you may experience excessive smoke emitting into your room. REFUELLING Refuelling should be undertaken whilst the flames on the current fuel are still established, or you may experience excessive smoking. If the current fire has died out, reignite the fire with additional kindling, before adding additional fuel.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS THE FIRE GRATE AND RIDDLING Your ESSE stove will be hot during and after use. Always use the supplied Operating Tool and / or Stove Glove to riddle the appliance. The Fire Grate in your ESSE stove is made of two parts – The Grate and the Riddle Plate. The Fire Grate can be ‘riddled’ by sliding the Riddle Plate quickly between the left and right position, forcing excess ash to fall through the slots in both parts, into the Ashpan below.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CLEANING & MAINTENANCE Your ESSE stove should be inspected frequently, and any required maintenance undertaken. We recommend that your ESSE stove is serviced once a year by a qualified service professional. Repairs or modifications should only be undertaken by ESSE authorised professionals. Only genuine ESSE replacement parts should be used, or your warranty may become invalid.
3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS flow of air, preventing a build-up of moisture inside your ESSE stove, which can lead to rusting. Before re-lighting the appliance, remove the top baffle bricks, to remove any debris, and check for blockages within the flue. WARRANTY Your ESSE stove has been built to the highest standard using premium materials, and comes with a two year manufacturer’s warranty.

UNPACKING THE APPLIANCE The stove comes bolted and strapped to a pallet, for simple and secure transportation. To unpack, first remove the strapping and packaging. Then remove the two bolts holding the stove to the pallet, using a 10mm spanner. Locate the four Height Adjusting Bolts supplied with the appliance, and insert them from below into the same four holes in the feet of the stove, using a 13mm spanner.
The stove comes supplied with a steel rear heatshield – This must be included in the installation. If the stove is to be installed with a rear flue connection, the relevant section of the heatshield should be removed. An optional additional heatshield can purchased, to reduce the distance to combustibles. Supplied heatshield With rear flue knockout removed CHIMNEY & FLUE The stove must be installed and connected to the chimney and flue pipe in line with the current requirements of Building Regulations.
CLEARANCE DISTANCES (COMBUSTIBLES & NON-COMBUSTIBLES) The appliance comes with a rear heatshield, which must be installed, irrespective whether the surrounding materials are combustible or non-combustible. Required distances to combustibles, (with the supplied heatshield), can be found in the Product Specification section of this manual. An optional additional heatshield is available, which when installed along with a double wall flue pipe, reduces the permitted distances to combustibles significantly.
