Dear Client, Congratulations on your new wood-burning stove, which will be a comfortable source of heat to enjoy for many years on end. With its unique design you can view the Black Pearl from all corners of the room. When designing this replace we took particular care regarding the ease of use, the operational safety and the design. The Black Pearl is developed and produced at our own factory in Netterden (the Netherlands) and is for the greater part handmade. Only the best materials are used for the construction and comply with current international standards. This will guarantee that your woodstove has a long life. The rst part of this user’s guide gives you tips and directions about how to use your wood-burning stove correctly and safely. The second part of the manual contains the installation instructions and the technical specications of the Black Pearl. They are of particular importance to the installer. We advise you to read this manual thoroughly before using your new stove and to keep the manual in a handy place. Your installer may need the manual for the yearly maintenance of your replace. We wish you much warmth with your new replace! The WANDERS team18 General information The Black Pearl The Black Pearl is a combination of comfort and ecient heat emission. The large glass panes allow emission of the heat from the stove directly to the environment to make your room instantly comfortable. The built-in ue gas deector ensures circulation of ue gases in the interior parts. Combined with the extra after-burning, it means that the ue gases have better combustion and reduce the burden on the environment. You can regulate the intake of combustion air with the integrated air slide valve and adjust the intensity of the re and the output of your stove. Installation It is common practice for the dealer where you purchased your Black Pearl stove to also take care of installing it. If this is not the case, please ensure that the installation is done by a certied installer. A certied installer can also give you the right advice about the ue tube to which the stove must be connected. Connecting wood-burning stoves by unqualied persons is prohibited, in which case we cannot give any guarantee about proper functioning of your Black Pearl stove. Please bear the re safety in mind when installing the stove. See also page 22. The wood-burning stove is suitable as an extra heat source and does not replace your principal heating device. Lighting the stove Usage early in autumn or late in winter When the external and internal temperatures do not dier much, a proper chimney draught is a real challenge. You can help chimney draught get started by burning some wood while keeping all air inlets maximally open. An abundant air supply speeds up quick heating which in turn increases the draught in the chimney. Lighting up the stove with only a little wood prevents smoke from streaming into the room. The stove will become very hot when you light it and will need at least two hours to cool o. Don’t touch the stove without protection during ring and for two hours after. Handle the stove always with a glove to avoid getting serious burns.

Turn the valve in the ue gas pipe open. Slide the primary air valve and the secondary air valve open to their maximum positions. Open the door and put some balls of paper or some relighters inside the stove and place some wood kindling on top. Light the kindling and leave the door ajar to let in extra air and, if necessary, slide the ashpan a bit open. Once the stove is burning, which is after about ve minutes, you may close the door and the ashpan again. Do not place more than three logs in the stove at a time. Be sure there is always enough ventilation when the stove is burning. If you want to temper the re, you must rst close the valve in the ue tube and then close the air supply. Avoid nger marks Do not touch the glass of the stove with your ngers. Finger marks will burn into the glass and cannot be removed later. It is prohibited to light the stove with liquids like petrol or spirits. Do not have the cooker hood on in the room where you operate your stove. Never touch the varnished parts when you heat your stove. Lighting the stove for the rst time Discolouration of walls, ceilings and grates The walls, ceilings and grates may show some discolouration after lighting your hearth. This is caused by the dust particles that burn in the convection cover. This is a natural process for which WANDERS cannot be held responsible. To minimize discolouring we refer to the advice given for atmospheric hearths. Your installer can give you more information about this. When you light the Black Pearl for the rst time, the hearth must still ‘anneal’ and temper itself. The unit has a heat resistant lacquer which must burn in the stove at temperatures above 400 °Celsius. This will happen during the rst few times of lighting as the stove and temperatures rise to 600 °C. Though this may give an unpleasant smell, it is otherwise harmless. It is advisable to keep the stove burning with limited fuel for at least 6 hours when lighting the stove for the rst 4 or 5 times. Air the room well when the stove is burning. Make sure that any cooking hood is not turned on when the stove is burning; a cooking hood extracts the combustion air that the stove needs. Some deposit may form on the glass panes of the stove when you ‘anneal’ your hearth. You can easily remove this deposit with a damp cloth after the stove has cooled down. You can also use some cleansing agent for ceramic rings. Please make sure you do not leave any nger marks on the clean glass. Finger marks burn into the glass and cannot be removed later.

Newly-built house or recently renovated? It is advisable to wait six weeks before lighting the stove in a newly-built house that has recently been completed, or in a space that has recently been renovated drastically. The walls and ceilings still contain gases, softeners and moisture from plasterwork or paint. The warm air-streams may discolour the dust particles in the space which may stick to walls and ceilings. Even the moisture in the walls and ceilings will become warm and may cause yellow stains. Fuel Wood species and storage You can use all kinds of woods as fuel as long as it is clean, split and dry. Hardwood like oak, beech and birch burn slowly, give o much heat and form charcoal easily. Softer woods like spruce, r and poplar give more ames but less heat and less charcoal. The best place to store timber is in a windy spot but sheltered from the rain. This is how the logs can dry in a natural way. Pile the logs on an old pallet or a frame to let the wood dry from underneath and to prevent the lower logs from being in contact with water. Wood Drying time Fir, Poplar 1 year Lime, Willow, Spruce, Birch, Ash, Alder 1,5 years Fruit trees, Beech 2 years Oak 2,5 years The Black Pearl only burns on wood. Do not put more than 3 to 4 kg of fuel in the stove at the time. Always use clean and cut logs, which have suciently dried. Please see the above list for drying times. Wet wood does not burn well and gives heavy smoke emission. It may blacken the glass pane of your stove with soot and build up smut in the ue pipe. This may increase the risk of chimney re. Fresh, moist wood contains about 50% moisture. Cleaved wood still contains 20% moisture after drying it for a year and moisture percentage will be decreased to 12 to 15% after drying it for two years. Dry wood gives nice ames and little or no smoke, and the re will crackle when burning. Wet wood makes a hissing sound, gives much smoke and only small ames which will considerably dampen the pleasure of burning your stove and the heat output. Do not put any paran-containing logs in your stove. When the door is closed, the high heat will melt the paran from the logs too quickly. The polluted ue gasses which consequently develop will deposit on and burn in the glass of your stove and cannot be removed later. Do not use any wood that is painted, impregnated, glued together or processed in any other way. The ue gases are very harmful to the environment and may aect your stove. It is also prohibited to burn plastics and other waste matter due to poisonous smoke development. The best way to burn your stove All WANDERS’ stoves are designed so that they give a maximum output. A well-lit wood-burning stove can produce a yield of about 75%. This means that you need less wood for the same amount of heat. Moreover, a

well-lit stove produces less smoke pollution. Below are a few tips to give you optimum pleasure:

• Always burn your stove with its door closed; this will improve the output within 8 to 10 times. When the door of the stove is open, the chimney will draw more air than is needed for proper combustion. The rela- tively cold air will cool the re. It will also preclude re damage by any sputtering sparks, especially from softwood.

• Do not put more than 3 logs on the re at one time. Too much fuel at one time thwarts ecient combus- tion and burdens the environment unnecessarily.

• Ventilate the space well when you have the stove on. A crackling re has a minimum air consumption of 25 cubic metres an hour. Never put on your cooking hood when you have a stove burning in the same space.

• Be careful with lighting the stove when it is foggy or when there is no wind outside. There is hardly any draught in the cold chimney when the weather is calm. Since smoke is heavier than air there is the chance of smoke streaming into the room. In foggy weather, the smoke from the chimney (outside) cools quickly and may descend and become a nuisance in your neighbourhood.

• Don’t smother the re suddenly with water, but let it burn out. The materials inside the stove may deform or crack as a result of sudden or great dierences in temperature.

• If you want to temper the re, rst close the valve in the ue tube and then close the air supply. Chimney and ue What to do in case of chimney re? In case of chimney re, immediately close the shut-o valve in the chimney and all air supply ducts. Call the re department. After the re is extinguished, the chimney and the stove must be inspected again by your installer. The chimney is the most important part of your wood-burning hearth. When the chimney is right it will not distribute any smoke into your room, leave any deposit on the glass pane or create bad combustion. Before starting the installation of the stove, your installer or a qualied chimney sweep must check whether the chimney ue has a diameter of at least 150 millimetres over the entire length, and whether the channel is clean, smooth and leak-proof. Chimney with a proper draught Warm air wants to ascend. This is the principle of every chimney. It helps when the wind near the chimney mouth draws the air from the chimney. Fall wind may give the opposite eect and blow the air back into the chimney. Relatively cold foggy air may thwart proper draught in your chimney as does a long ue pipe with a rough inside and many bends. If the natural draught in your chimney is poor your installer can give you information about using a ventilator for your ue tube. Maintenance Small maintenance

• It is advisable to leave an ash layer of about two to three centimetres, as this will protect the re plate.

• Remove the cooled ash from the ashpan two or three times a week. It is advisable to use an ash bucket. A clean ashpan is important because the stove sucks in combustion air also via the ashpan.

• Clean the shaking grate inside the stove with a soft brush.

• Clean the exterior of the stove with a damp cloth that does not give o u. Do not use any aggressive cleansing agents or abrasives.

• Clean the cold glass pane with a cleaning agent for ceramic cooking rings. Do not touch the clean glass

!22 with your ngers. Finger marks may burn into the glass.

• Oil the hinges and the door fastener occasionally. Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents or abrasives to maintain your stove. When the stove is not used

• Close all doors and air inlets in summer season

• Place absorbent salt inside the stove if it is stored in a humid space. Yearly maintenance

• Have your chimney properly cleaned by a qualied chimney sweep every year; this is for safety reasons and any re insurance.

• Have the ue gas outlet and the combustion air supply of the double-walled ue tube system checked for air-tightness every year.

• Have the valves and/or aps checked for their functioning.

• Have the sealing of doors and glass panes checked for wear and tear. Safety A WANDERS wood-burning stove gives you a comfortable and a safe source of heat in your home. Fire safety starts with a proper installation and a properly working ue tube. Your installer must therefore comply with the installation instructions as listed on page 23 and further. To burn your stove safely, the following points are important:

1. Burn your stove as much as possible with a closed door; it increases the output and is better for the

2. Prevent small children or the inrm from getting too close to a burning stove and do not leave them alone

in the room when the stove is burning. You could use a re-screen.

3. Do not pour or put combustible liquids and materials in the stove, as it may damage the replace beyond

Installation Instructions Black Pearl The Black Pearl is tested in accordance with the international EN 13240 standardization, and has an extra additional standardization for optimally environment-friendly heating devices related to ue gases (Section 15a B-Vg. Des BmfWA). The stove can be connected to a ue tube to which several stoves are connected. The ue tube has a diameter of 150 millimetres. The heating device must be placed by an acknowledged installer and according to the installation instructions given below. The national and local rules and regulations for placing and using wood- burning stoves are equally applicable. WANDERS does not give any guarantee if the Black Pearl is connected or installed incompletely or incorrectly. It is not allowed to place the stove in:

• Arcades and corridors accessible to the public.

• Stairwells, except in buildings with no more than 2 dwellings.

• Spaces where highly ammable or explosive materials are used.

• Spaces where an exhaust system is used or where a mechanical exhaust system is placed, except when the air supply is taken directly from outside to assure a hazardless combustion. Preparation The chimney ue Before placing the stove you must observe the following points:

• If the stove is connected to an existing chimney, you must rst have the chimney professionally cleaned and checked by a qualied chimney sweep company. Any cut-o valves or stop valves must be removed.

• The ue tube of the stove must be connected with the chimney without diversions.

• The underpressure in the chimney must be at least 12 Pa or 0.12 mbar.

• The chimney ue must always end up in outlet area 1 (see the drawing on page 24)

• At the time of placing the stove, the chimney ue must be clean, leak-proof and without obstructions, and must have a diameter of 150 mm.

• Any bends in the ue tube must not exceed 45 degrees.

• Ensure that the chimney tube can discharge the ue gases adequately, properly and safely. !24 Fire Safety For reasons of re safety is it important to observe the instructions below before installing the stove.

1. If the oor around the stove is made of combustible material, you must use a oor slab. The oor slab must

measure at least: - 50 cm from the stove on the front side of the door - 30 cm from the stove on the sides of the door.

2. Keep at least a distance of 80 cm between the stove and combustible objects such as curtains, wooden

objects (cupboards and paintings) and glass objects. Keep the same distance from the ue tube.

3. Wooden construction parts within the radiation range of the stove (80 cm from the exterior of the stove)

must be covered with reproof material.

4. If the ue tube goes through a ceiling and/or roof that consist of ammable materials, the ceiling and the

roof must be covered with reproof materials all around (about 80 cm). Pay also attention to joisted oor layers and any electric wiring.

5. Keep a distance of at least 50 cm (in all directions) between the stove and supporting steel construction

6. Shield o all combustible materials within a radius of 100 cm from the stove openings with non-

combustible materials.

7. Never cover the chimney breast with combustible material (e.g. paper covering).

8. The wall behind the stove must consist of, or be insulated with, re-proof materials. The insulation material

must resist a temperature of 700 °C and have a density of 80 kg/m3. Please see for insulation materials table page 29).

9. Avoid heat transmission when placing the stove. Heat transmission of a burning stove can penetrate the

wall and even cause re damage on the other side of the wall. Prevention is better than cure. Installation The Black Pearl stove is tested in accordance with the international EN 13240 standardization and has an extra additional standardization for optimally environment-friendly heating devices related to ue gases (Section 15a B-Vg. Des BmfWA). The stove can be connected to a ue tube to which several stoves are connected. The ue tube has a diameter of 150 mm. Supply of combustion air The stove must have a sucient fresh supply of combustion air. To avoid draft, make if necessary an extra air supply opening as close to the stove as possible. An extra air supply opening is denitely required if:

• the room has a heat recovery system.

• the room has a central exhaust system.

• the same space has a cooker hood. The air supply opening must be sealable if it goes through a re-resistant wall. If there are several heating devices in the same room there must be enough air openings to guarantee proper combustion. External air supply The tube for supplying fresh outside air has a diameter of 100 mm. The air supply duct can be connected to

the back of the stove. If the external air supply duct goes through a re-resistant wall, the duct must be sealable. If the duct is longer than 1 metre including a 90° bend, the diameter of the duct must be bigger. Connecting the hearth The Black Pearl is a heavy woodstove. The model weighs 150 kg, including the 2 metre ue tube. Verify whether the wall onto which the stove is installed is strong enough to hold the weight. Follow the instructions given in the previous chapter (Preparation) before installing the stove. Protect the oor during mounting the stove, and mind your back. Mounting the stove to the wall

1. Check whether the wall in front of which the hearth is placed is adequately re-proof. Please read the text

in the chapter on ‘Fire Safety’ on page 24.

2. Check the packaging of the stove and the base. Do not mount the stove that has been damaged in the

box. If there is any damage, please report to WANDERS.

3. Be careful when unpacking the stove and protect the oor while unpacking.

4. Remove the glass plate from the hearth to avoid any damage.

5. Fasten the suspension clip to the wall. Never use any synthetic fastenings. Be sure to place the clip exactly

beneath the centre of the outlet. The fastening bolts should not protrude more than 10 mm from the wall.

6. Connect a separate air supply duct, if necessary (minimum diameter: 100 mm).

7. Hang the stove in the clips.

Mind your back! To decrease the weight you can temporarily remove the glass plate and the re plate. Fit the hearth with its top to the wall clip.

8. Secure the stove by bolting it

to the wall clip using the 2 bolts and nuts.

9. Put the glass plate back on the
