3. Usage
3.1. General instructions
Warnings:
The fireplace is heated only with untreated firewood.
Helo fireplaces are meant for heating rooms. They must not be used for any other purpose
Making structural changes to the fireplace is not permitted.
Use only original equipment and parts authorised by the manufacturer.
Use the glove delivered with the fireplace when it is hot. There is a scalding hazard when handling
heated parts.
Do not close the damper plate before the embers have stopped glowing.
The fireplace's door must be closed during burning. Smoke may leak into the room, if the draught is
weak.
Although the fireplace has been heat treated, a slight amount of paint odour may emerge during the
first heating.
During the first heating, the environment should be aired.
Do not burn overly large loads. The heat output rises excessively and may damage the fireplace.
The instructions apply to leaf wood. Burning the same amount of coniferous wood causes higher
temperatures in the furnace.
If the surface of the cladding changes or the colour comes off, the fireplace has been heated too
much. If, in addition to this, the steel parts start bending, the heat output exceeds permitted levels by
far. Helo does not cover damages of this kind.

3.2. Fuel
Only untreated firewood may be burned in the fireplace.
The wood should have a humidity of 15–20 % for optimal burning. Excessively moist wood will blacken
the glass door and the chimney with soot. Soot accumulation in the chimney also increases the
possibility of chimney fires. Burning moist wood causes more smoke and pollution, since the burning
can't advance cleanly. It also does not give off optimal heat, since part of the energy is used in turning
the moisture into steam. Firewood that is stored outdoors should be taken inside for a few days to
allow the surface moisture to evaporate.
Warning:
Do not use impregnated wood, chipboard, laminates, liquid fuels or anything similar even for starting
the fire. They may contain substances that will damage the fireplace and the chimney.
Wood chips or very small pieces of wood should not be used during the proper heating phase, since
they produce very high temperatures that may damage the fireplace. (Building material often contains
hazardous substances.) Only store as much wood close to the fireplace as you burn during a single
session. A small amount of wood can be stored in the container beneath the fireplace, but it must not
be filled right up to the brim.
When wood is stored close to the fireplace, the safety distances mentioned in 2.5 must be kept.
3.2.1. Ignition
Check before lighting that the chimney is not obstructed and the grate is open. Open the chimney's
damper plate.
