The local authority will be able to inform you of the type of fuel you are allowed to burn in the area the stove is to be installed. Currently the ECCO stove is tested for wood burning but wood maybe burned in a smokeless designated zone provided it is operated to the following instructions (see Item 12).
3. MATERIALS The Ecco Stove is constructed primarily from a mix of Silicon Carbide, a material that has a high affinity to absorb heat but radiate it slowly and gently, therefore permeating greater distances within the home than conventional materials of stove construction.
Loading must be carried out with care. 8. ASH GRATE The grate within your Ecco Stove is made from cast iron being a highly durable material providing a long life; however, it is considered a consumable item and not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. The raised block on the grate is to be fitted to the back of the stove.
The Ecco Stove is produced from a self coloured material and as such variations in colour and texture of that material may be evident but adding to the uniqueness of the product, unless ordered as a pre- factory painted or as ready for paint on site finish to co-ordinate with home decor.
Under firing warning If when re-firing; re-fuelling or lighting the Ecco stove, it must be fired up to 150˚C to 200˚C for each new wood load for proper combustion – if allowed to “tick over” below this temperature tar build up will occur and subsequent blocking of the flue ways.

Clean Air Act requirements. The Ecco Stove E730 has been recommended as suitable for use in smoke control areas when burning dry wood logs and when a 4mm permanent gap between the cover and main body of the secondary air cover is in place and when all air controls are permanently fixed in position.

Only re-fuel when the wood charge has burned down to a red glow (charcoal embers). When the Ecco Stove has been on a minimum of 2-3 hours burning and the fuel has turned to charcoal, re-fuelling should either be carried out with two or three split logs at each time, to ensure proper and complete combustion, and produce minimum smoke.
(Minimum 1mm thick metal pipe). The nominal flue outlet of the Ecco Stove is 150mm diameter for which a 150mm flue liner insulated around within the masonry chimney with perlite grains or similar or insulative appropriate wrap is strongly advised, or a suitably insulated pre-fabricated twin wall stainless steel flue system.

These plugs must always be re-fitted firmly in place before lighting or whilst running the Ecco Stove. The firebox door and ash pit door should remain closed at all times other than re-fuelling (fire box door) and ash pit door after following the lighting and re-fuelling procedures stated in these instructions.
21. PAINT FINISHES Paint finishes on your Ecco Stove may produce a heavy chemical smell for a number of initial firings from being newly painted. This is normal and will only last for a few high firings. Ventilate the room well until the smell has cleared.

Including back baffles showing spacer piece to stand the bottom of the baffles off the rear of the stove with the “V” shape forming a void around the tertiary air intake. Position the vermiculite spacer blocks for E730 Model, flat against the back section such that the pre-drilled vermiculite back baffle is spaced off the back section to allow an air flow behind them but are held at their front by the rear upstand on the cast iron grate.

It is important to ensure adequate supply of combustion and ventilation air. d) Extractor fans: No extractor fans are to be fitted in the same room as the Ecco Stove. e) Flue draught: Minimum cold flue draught to be .04 inches water gauge, maximum .06 inches water gauge.
