User Instructions
1. INTRODUCTION
Before use of this appliance please read these
instructions fully.
WARNING: ANY MODIFICATION OF THE APPLIANCE
THAT HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE
TESTING AUTHORITY IS CONSIDERED AS BREACHING
AS/NZS 4013.
WARNING: DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS OR
AEROSOLS TO START OR REKINDLE THE FIRE.
WARNING: DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS OR
AEROSOLS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS APPLIANCE
WHEN IT IS OPERATING.
WARNING: DO NOT STORE FUEL WITHIN HEATER
INSTALLATION CLEARANCES.
WARNING: WHEN OPERATING THIS APPLIANCE AS
AN OPEN FIRE USE A FIRE SCREEN.
WARNING: OPEN AIR CONTROL BEFORE OPENING
DOOR.
WARNING: DO NOT BURN WOOD THAT IS PAINTED;
OR IS COATED WITH PLASTIC; OR HAS BEEN TREATED
WITH ANY CHEMICAL.
CAUTION: THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD NOT BE
OPERATED WITH CRACKED GLASS.
CAUTION: THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE MAINTAINED
AND OPERATED AT ALL TIMES IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

of the manufacturer.
Extraction fans or rangehoods must not be placed
in the same room or space, as this can cause
appliance to emit smoke into the room.

1.1. AIR CONTROLS
The Blaze B100 wood heater features a single
air control system. It is designed to introduce
oxygenintothebaseofthere,controllingthe
rate of combustion of the wood as well as the
oxygenbeingdrawnintotheupperreboxwhere
combustion of the gases occurs.
The air control is operated by sliding the tab
handle located on the top left of the heater.
Sliding all the way to the left offers maximum burn
rate, while all the way to the right offers minimum
burn rate.
Secondaryairholesintherearoftherebox
provide additional oxygen for a more complete
combustion of the gases released from the
burning wood.
1.2. DOOR HANDLE
Warning: the door handle may get hot if
appliance has been left in High burn setting for an
extended period of time. A stainless steel handle
extension is supplied with the heater that can
be inserted in the end of the door handle when
opening and closing if too hot to handle.
2. USING APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST
TIME
Therstfewtimestheapplianceislit,itwillgiveoff
some odorous fumes. This is caused by the paint
curing.
Do not touch the paint work while it is curing
otherwise it can leave a permanent mark on the
appliance.
Once the paint has cured it will not re-occur.
Keep the room well ventilated until these fumes
have cleared.
3. RECOMMENDED FUELS
Burn only seasoned hardwood timber with a
moisture content of less than 20%. Newly cut
wood should be allowed to dry/season for 12 to
18 months before use.
Wood should be stored in an environment
protected from the weather to minimise any
potential moisture content.
For best results, wood should not exceed 270mm
in length and 150mm in diameter. Any larger, and
the appliance will not operate at its optimum. It is
better to burn several smaller pieces of wood than
one large single piece.
Poor quality timber:
●Causeslowcombustionefciency
●Produces poor emissions (smoky)
●Results in additional buildup of creosote
(soot)intheuewhichwillthenrequire
regularcleaningandmayresultinauere.
Do not burn painted, impregnated/treated wood,
manufactured board products or pallet wood.

4. LIGHTING THE FIRE
1. Placerelightersorpaperanddrykindling
woodinthebaseoftherebox.
2. Lightthepaperorrelighters.
3. Open the air control located on the top left
corner of the appliance by sliding to the
left.
4. If necessary, leave the door slightly open as
thereestablishesandtheglasswarmsto
avoid the build-up of condensation.
5. Add larger pieces of wood. Too many logs
maysmotherthere.
6. Close the door.
Do not leave re unattended while door is open.
5. RUNNING THE APPLIANCE
5.1. MAXIMUM HEAT OUTPUT
Afterestablishingthereandloadingitwithlarger
pieces of wood, leave it running with the air slide
fully open (slid all the way to the left).
This setting will generate maximum heat output.
Running the appliance with the door open will not
produce maximum heating in the room, as it will
draw a lot of already warmed air out of the room.
Donotoverloadreboxwithfuel.
Note that this setting is not the most energy
efcientassomeheatislostuptheueinsteadof
being transferred into the room. However, once
thereisestablished,particulateemissionswillbe
very low in this setting.
5.2. LOW HEAT OUTPUT
The heat output of the appliance can be
reduced by closing the air slide, which will restrict
theoxygensuppliedtothereandslowdownthe
rate at which the wood burns.
Thissettingprovidesthebestenergyefciency
as the wood burns for longer. However, if not
operated correctly it may worsen emissions.
Priortoclosingtheairslide,ensurethatthereis
burning briskly. This may require opening the air
slide fully for 5-10mins before shutting down.
For the optimum between clean burning and
gettingthebestinefciency,fromthefullyclosed
position, open the air slide 4-5mm.
The air slide can be adjusted to any position
depending on desired heat output versus burn
time.
5.3. RELOAD WITH MORE WOOD
1. Open air slide before opening door.
2. Rake / break up any existing coals.
3. Load the wood with the length oriented
front to back.
4. Better results will be achieved by loading
several smaller pieces of wood rather than
one large piece.
5. Close door with air slide fully open, and
leave for a minimum of 10 minutes to allow
the fresh wood to catch.
6. After 10 or more minutes, the top air slide
can be adjusted to desired heat setting.

6. BURNING TIPS
6.1. FUEL QUALITY
Use wood with a moisture content of less than
20%. Logs should not feel moist or damp, or have
moss and fungal growths.
Symptoms related to wet wood:
●Difcultystartingandkeepingareburning
well.
●Smokeandonlysmallames.
●Dirtyglassand/orrebricks.
●Rapidcreosotebuild-upintheue/chimney.
●Low heat output.
●Short burn times, and blue/grey smoke from
theue/chimneyoutlet.
Run appliance at high heat output for a short
period each day to avoid large build-up of tars
andcreosotewithintheapplianceandue.

problems consult your supplier/installer.
7. ASH REMOVAL
Depending on the type of wood burnt and
frequency, the ashes will need removing every 2
to 6 weeks.
Excess ashes should be removed when necessary,
placed in a non-combustible container with a
tightlyttinglidandmovedoutdoorsimmediately
to a location clear of combustible materials.

9. CLEANING PAINTWORK AND GLASS
The appliance, when cool, can be cleaned with a
damp cloth.
Over the years, the black paint will fade and can
be touched up with Stove Bright metallic black
paint.
To clean the glass, we recommend using a
household window cleaner or general purpose
cleaner with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive
cleaner or scourer pads.

11. TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
11.1. GLASS IN DOOR BLACKENING
This can have several possible causes:
●Burning unseasoned wood — if the wood is
too wet, it will cause the glass to blacken.
●Appliance operated at low temperature —
after an overnight burn where the air slide
control has been fully closed, the glass may
haveblackened.Whenthereisre-stoked
and burning on the high heat setting, the
blackened glass should self-clean.
●Problemswiththeue—insufcientue
draught can cause the glass to blacken.

3. REMOVING THE DOOR
To remove the door:
1. Open the door all the way.
2. Lift the door upwards until the door hinges
are freed from the body hinges.
3. If the door is not easy to lift upwards, swing
the door back and forth whilst applying
an upward force to overcome the static
friction.
4. FITTING NEW DOOR GLASS
This task may be easier with the door removed
fromtheheaterandlaidatonawork-bench.
To replace the door glass:
1. Two stainless steel strips hold the glass in
place. Remove the four M4 size Phillips head
screws from the stainless steel strips.
2. Gently lift the glass up and out, and check
ifthegreybreglassropebeneathneeds
replacing. If so replace this rope as well.

3. Position the new glass on top of the grey

4. Take extra care not to over-tighten the
screws, otherwise the glass will crack when
the heater gets hot and the door expands.
