Frequently Asked Questions - Kimberley Mk2 Jindara

What type of wood should I use in my Kimberley Mk2?

Use seasoned hardwood with moisture content below 20%. Avoid softwoods, treated wood, or pallets as they can damage the heater and increase creosote buildup.

How often should I clean the chimney flue?

Clean the flue at least once a year or more if you burn frequently. Signs of creosote buildup include dark smoke and poor draft. Use a brush and rods or hire a professional.

How do I adjust the air controls for optimal burning?

Open the primary air control fully for startup. Once established, reduce it to control burn rate. Use the secondary air control to add oxygen above the fire for cleaner combustion. Adjust to maintain a steady flame.

What is the recommended flue height for proper draft?

The flue should extend at least 4.6 meters above the floor and be higher than any roof ridge within 3 meters. Minimum height from stove is 4 meters.

Can I install the Kimberley Mk2 in a mobile home?

Yes, but only if the mobile home has adequate ventilation and complies with local regulations. You must use an outside air kit and ensure clearances are met.

How do I light the fire correctly?

Place crumpled paper and kindling on the grate. Open air controls fully. Light the paper and close the door slightly until the fire catches. Add smaller logs gradually. Once established, add larger logs and adjust controls.

Is there a safety guard available for the Kimberley Mk2?

Yes, Jindara offers an optional safety guard (part number KG-100) to prevent accidental contact with the hot glass and surfaces. It is recommended for homes with children or pets.

How do I replace the ceramic glass door?

Only use genuine Jindara replacement glass (5mm ceramic glass). Remove the door, unscrew the retaining strips, carefully remove the old glass, install new glass with new gasket, and tighten screws evenly.

What does the warranty cover and how long does it last?

The Kimberley Mk2 comes with a 10-year limited warranty covering the steel body against burn-through. Firebricks, glass, and gaskets have a 1-year warranty. Proof of purchase and professional installation are required.

How do I maintain the heater for long life?

Regularly empty the ash pan before it overflows. Check door gaskets for wear. Inspect firebricks annually and replace cracked ones. Have the flue cleaned yearly. Use only dry wood to minimize creosote.

Installation notes:

The Gason Zero Clearance Cabinet is an approved cabinet that allows for Eureka/Jindara Insert woodheaters as stated above to be installed within a non-masonry fireplace in accordance with AS2918:2001.

This can be achieved by following the installation guidelines listed below.

• Select the position that you wish to install your ZCC, carefully allowing for flue clearances of 305mm in the roof cavity (The outer flue being 255mm requires a 25mm clearance on either side to combustibles, making overall clearance 305mm).
• Place hearth (non-combustible cement sheet, villaboard or similar) in the position desired for the ZCC, ensuring hearth will extend fully underneath ZCC as shown above for relevant model. Place the ZCC into position.
• Notel line and the ZC with corresponding holes depending on model. Refer to diagram on sheet 2.
• Fit the flue to the upstands and terminate at the required height above the roof line.
• Fit 300mm x 100mm vermin proof vent directly behind where the ZGAll be located, as near as practicable to the floor. This vent will allow air access to the zero box either from another room or external air. Note, if installed timber floor, an additional two vents are required. i.e. Either through the floor, one each side of the zero box, or alternatively, through the side wall(s), if applicable.
• Build your frame around the ZCC maintaining the clearances listed above.
  • Cover the front face of framing with a minimum 4mm cement sheet or non-combustible material.
• Cover the rest of the frame to suit your requirements with plaster, timber, MDF etc.
• Insert your chosen appliance into the zero cabinet. Note: x2 galvanized c-section brackets supplied are required to centralise Opal/Riverina, Stockade/Barossa. For installation of Kimberley, Hamersley, Federation and Victorian, appliances must sit on c-section to ensure correct installation height is achieved. Fit active flue and cowl once appliance is in position.
  • Install the mantel if required. Note if mantle is made out of a combustible material the following dimensions must be adhered to.
