If it is impossible to establish a sufficient natural chimney draft, you can mount a smoke exhauster, e.g.
Aduro DraftOptimizer.
4.2 Chimney and Smoke
If you experience smoke coming out of the stove or the start section of the smoke pipe, it could be due to
certain weather conditions. On stormy or cold winter days or if the chimney has not been used in a while, a
cold plug can be created in the chimney, meaning the natural draft will be at its minimum.
If the chimney is cold and cold plugs are created, you may experience smoke leaks during the ignition and
startup phase. In this situation there can be more smoke than usually in the combustion chamber and some
of it might leak out of the stove. Therefore, if you have a cold chimney that has not been used for a while, we
recommend that you use some wood sticks to heat the chimney and eliminate the cold plug.
5. Maintenance and cleaning of the stove
All maintenance and cleaning of the stove should be carried out when
the stove is cold.
Combustion chamber
The fireproof tiles in the combustion chamber eventually wear out and should be replaced when the cracks
are more than 0.5 cm wide. The durability of the tiles depends on how often and how intensively the stove is
used. You can change the tiles yourself. They are available as a ready-to-use set. You can buy the sets at

Glass
Wet wood, unsatisfactory chimney draft, and wrong use of the stove can leave soot stains on the glass
panes. It can easily be removed using a damp cloth that you dip in cold ash and rub on the sooty glass.
Special cleaning agents are also available to remove soot from glass, e.g. the
pad neither scratches nor damages the glass and is for multiple usage. Water or other cleaning agents are
not necessary.
It is common maintenance to tighten the glass fittings and the hinges shortly after the stove has been
installed.
Gaskets
Check if the gaskets around glass and door are properly placed. Over time, the gaskets will wear out and
should therefore be checked regularly. If leakages appear, they should be replaced, as it is essential that the
stove is tight.
