Feed the fire through the glass front door, or slip a log in through the side door. Logs up to 45 cm fit, so there is less sawing to do. Vermiculite plates line the firebox, secondary combustion works on the fire, and Version 2 has larger air inlets and secondary air holes. An ash tray keeps the clean-up quick.
SLOW MORNINGS, WARM ROOMS
A cold winter morning, a mug of coffee and a little one pointing at the flames. Add another log through the side door and settle back with a book. With the TAI 45 in the study, everyone suddenly wants to work from home.
The flue pipe, stone hearth plate, bookshelves, furniture and décor are not included. Have an independent installer confirm the hearth, flue route and clearances.
A LITTLE PRACTICAL THINKING
THE FIRE
Use the front door or the side door, whichever suits your room. The firebox takes logs up to 45 cm long. Burn dry firewood and follow Dovre's manual.
THE ASH
The ash tray keeps the clean-up after a long night quick and tidy. Let the ash cool fully before you empty it.
THE CONNECTIONS
The 150 mm flue connects at the top or the rear. At the rear, its centre is 665 mm above the floor. Plan the route and the flue parts with an independent installer.
MEASURE THE WHOLE SETUP
Plan the stove, hearth and flue together.
These are the stove's own sizes on its legs, not a hearth or room size. The top flue collar brings the height to 841 mm, and the 425 mm depth is measured from above. Have an independent installer confirm the hearth, flue route and clearances.
