Adjusting the combustion air

All RAIS stoves are equipped with an easy-to-use handle for adjusting the air control. For

the various positions of the control please see the previous illustrations. To ensure proper

combustion process it is very important to supply the correct quantity of air at the right time

and place. The adjustment range made from factory may not be altered for increasing ring

for any reason.

Primary air is dened as combustion air for burning the mass of wood and stimulates pro-

duction of volatile gases.

Secondary air is used to burn o the gases at high temperatures (above 1,000°F/540°C) and

to keep the glass free of soot. The secondary air is let through the air control beneath the

combustion chamber and is heated through the side channels, which is then directed to the

glass. The warm air runs along the glass, keeping it free of soot.

At the very back of the combustion chamber there is a tertiary channel at the top that helps

to combust the remaining gases.

When positioning the air control between Pos. 1 and 2 optimum utilization of the energy

contents of the wood is obtained, because of sucient oxygen for combustion. When the

ames burn bright and yellow, the control has been adjusted correctly. Finding the correct

position takes some trial and error, but is easy to nd.

Never close the air control completely when using the stove. A typical error is to close the

control too soon, because the heat gets too intense. This results in the appearance of a dark

cloud of smoke from the chimney and that means the energy value of the wood is not being

used properly.

It is important for proper control of the re that the instructions in the manual are followed

and the stove door normally is kept closed. It is also necessary to keep the seals in a good

condition.
