Follow these steps for safe and efficient operation of your wood-burning stove.

4.1 Fueling the Stove

• Mmanụ ụgbọala akwadoro: Use only dry, seasoned hardwood. Wood should be split and seasoned for at least 6-12 months.
• Na-ebu: Open the stove door slowly to prevent smoke spillage. Place a small amount of crumpled newspaper or firelighters, followed by small kindling, then progressively larger pieces of wood. Do not overfill the firebox.

4.2 Starting a Fire

1. Ensure all air intake vents are fully open.
2. Ignite the newspaper/firelighters.
3. Leave the stove door slightly ajar for a few minutes to establish a strong draft, then close it securely.
4. Once the fire is burning steadily, gradually add larger pieces of wood.

4.3 Controlling the Burn

• Ntinye ikuku: Adjust the air intake controls to regulate the burn rate and heat output. Closing the air intake will slow the burn; opening it will increase it.
• Optimal Burn: Aim for a steady, bright flame. Excessive smoke indicates an inefficient burn or wet wood.

5. Nlekọta

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your Supra VERCORS 3 stove.

• Mwepụ ntụ: Regularly remove ash from the ash pan. Do not allow ash to build up to the level of the grate, as this can restrict airflow and damage the grate. Dispose of hot ashes in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid, away from combustible materials.
• Nchacha chimni: The chimney and flue pipe should be inspected and cleaned at least once a year, or more frequently depending on usage and fuel type. Creosote buildup is a fire hazard.
• Nchacha iko: Clean the stove glass with a specialized glass cleaner designed for wood stoves when the stove is completely cool. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Gasket ọnụ ụzọ: Inspect the door gasket periodically for wear and tear. A worn gasket can lead to air leaks and reduced efficiency. Replace if necessary.
