Specifications and Technical Data
Aduro 15 / 15.1 wood burning stoves comply with European and Norwegian standards, ensuring environmental and quality standards. Key specifications include a nominal power of 6.5 kW, a flue outlet diameter of 15 cm, and a maximum wood length of 50 cm. The stove is made of sheet iron and supports wood and wood briquettes as fuel. It features primary, secondary, and tertiary air supply systems, an air-wash system, and an ashpan, with an energy efficiency of 78%.
Chimney Requirements
For optimal operation, the chimney draft should be maintained between 18 and 25 Pascal. Factors such as outdoor temperature and wind can affect the draft, and adjustments may be necessary to ensure proper combustion. In cases of insufficient natural draft, a smoke extractor like the Aduro DraftOptimizer can be installed.
Maintenance Procedures
Regular maintenance includes checking and replacing Vermiculite plates in the combustion chamber, cleaning the glass with appropriate products, and ensuring seals around the glass and door are intact. The ashpan should be emptied regularly, and some ash should be left in the stove to aid in lighting fires. The stove's surface should be cleaned with a soft vacuum attachment or a dry cloth, avoiding any liquid cleaners.
Installation Guidelines
The stove can be installed by the user, but consultation with a chimney sweep is recommended to ensure compliance with local regulations. The stove must be placed on a non-flammable base if near flammable materials, with specific distance requirements outlined for safety. The flue outlet can be adjusted from top to rear as needed.
Warranty and Accessories
A two-year warranty is provided, extendable to five years with online registration. The warranty excludes wear parts like Vermiculite, glass, and seals. A range of accessories is available to enhance the stove experience, including tools, baskets, and cleaning products.
Installation Instructions:
For Aduro 20, the stove should be positioned approximately 53 cm above the floor hearth. Secure the safety wire through the backplate and wall bracket, adjusting and tightening it as necessary.
Lighting the Stove:
Important safety measures include avoiding combustible fluids near the stove and ensuring the ashpan is emptied only when cold. The door should remain closed during use, except when lighting the fire.
Damper Controls:
The stove features primary, secondary, and tertiary dampers to regulate combustion air. The secondary damper should remain open between 60% and 100% for optimal combustion. The Aduro Key aids in adjusting the secondary damper.
Aduro-tronic System:
This manual control system optimizes combustion without electricity, reducing firewood usage by up to 40%. It automatically regulates primary air intake during lighting and stoking.
Ventilation:
Adequate fresh air supply is crucial for efficient stove operation. In well-insulated homes, additional ventilation may be necessary to prevent smoke leakage.
First Use:
Initial use may produce smoke and odors due to paint hardening. Ensure proper ventilation and avoid intense fires initially to allow gradual expansion.
Recommended Fuels:
Use dry wood with a moisture content not exceeding 18%. Avoid burning varnished wood, chipboard, or fossil fuels.
Chimney Requirements:
Optimal combustion requires a chimney draft of 18-25 Pa. Inadequate draft may necessitate a smoke exhauster.
Maintenance:
Regularly inspect and replace worn gaskets and fireproof tiles. Clean soot from the glass using a damp cloth with cold ash or specialized cleaning pads.
Transportation and Initial Setup
When transporting the wood stove, it should be kept upright. If transported horizontally, remove the ash pan and all detachable parts. Use the provided wood for the first use and remove any plastic packaging before use.
Installation of the Wood Stove
It is recommended to consult a chimney sweep for installation. Ensure compliance with local, national, and European regulations. The stove must be approved by the local chimney sweep before first use.
Placement and Required Distances
If placed against a non-flammable wall, no minimum distance is required, but a 5-10 cm gap is recommended for cleaning and convection. Specific distances from flammable materials are provided, such as 20 cm from the back and 120 cm from furniture.
Smoke Pipe Connection
The smoke outlet is on top of the stove but can be moved to the back. Use a pipe with a 150 mm internal diameter and ensure compliance with construction regulations.
Connection to a Masonry Chimney
Use the rear outlet or a curved smoke pipe. Ensure the wall is sealed with chimney mortar and the smoke pipe is inserted without blocking the chimney opening.
Safety Cable
The stove comes with a safety cable to be mounted on the nearest wall, with specific height instructions for different models.
Operating the Wood Stove
Take precautions as the stove remains hot during use. Do not use flammable liquids to start the fire, and keep the door closed except during ignition.
Air Control Levers
The stove has primary, secondary, and tertiary air controls. The secondary air lever should be open during operation to adjust heat intensity and ensure efficient combustion.
Aduro-tronic System
This mechanical system regulates combustion automatically, saving up to 40% of wood. It requires no electricity and adjusts the primary air intake based on pre-set timings.
Ventilation and Fresh Air Supply
Ensure adequate air supply for combustion, especially in airtight homes. Consider installing an air intake grille in the room.
Feeding the Fire
The stove is designed for intermittent combustion. Add wood only after a layer of embers has formed, and adjust heat output by the size and amount of wood.
First Ignition
Initial use may produce smoke and odors due to the curing of heat-resistant paint. Ensure good ventilation and avoid intense fires during the first few uses.
Lighting the Stove
Proper ignition is crucial for efficient combustion. Use air control levers to manage airflow and follow specific steps for placing wood and kindling.

Specifications and Features
The document describes the operation and maintenance of an Aduro wood stove. It highlights the Aduro Key, which facilitates the control of secondary air intake, and the Aduro-tronic system, a patented mechanical ignition device that regulates combustion without electricity, potentially saving up to 40% of wood.
Primary Air Intake
When loading new wood, the primary air intake should be opened to strengthen the fire. It is recommended to wait until the embers are reduced before adding new wood. Opening the primary damper for a minute before opening the door can increase draft and reduce ash dispersion.
Aduro-tronic System
The Aduro-tronic system automatically regulates the primary air intake for optimal combustion. It should be activated with each wood load by pulling the lever. The system is preset to close the air intake within six minutes, but this can be adjusted based on specific needs.
Ventilation and Fresh Air Supply
For optimal stove operation, adequate air supply is necessary. In cases of negative pressure, opening a window or installing an air vent is recommended. The combustion process uses approximately 25 m3/h of air.
Usage Instructions
The stove is designed for intermittent combustion, requiring embers to form before reigniting. Optimal combustion is achieved with two logs, adding 1.5 kg of wood per hour for ideal heat.
First Ignition
Initial use may produce smoke and odor due to paint curing. Adequate ventilation is necessary, and the stove should not be used at full power initially to allow gradual metal expansion.
Wood Selection
Recommended wood includes hardwood logs stored for at least a year with moisture content not exceeding 18%. Burning treated wood, chipboard, or waste is prohibited.
Chimney Specifications
Optimal combustion requires a chimney draft of 10-14 Pascal, with natural draft conditions between 18-25 Pa. Issues with draft may require chimney adjustments or the use of a draft optimizer.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance includes checking and replacing seals, cleaning the glass, and removing ash. The stove's surface can be cleaned with a vacuum or soft cloth, and scratches can be repaired with heat-resistant paint.
Spare Parts and Unauthorized Modifications
It is recommended to use only original spare parts. Any form of unauthorized alteration is prohibited as it will make the stove non-compliant with approved specifications. Original spare parts can be purchased from the website www.aduroshop.com.
Accessories
Aduro offers a wide range of products to enhance your user experience, including accessory sets, log baskets, fire starters, grills, glass and steel floor plates, and flue pipes.
