Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to connect automatic combustion control to any fireplace, stove, or fireplace stove?

Yes, automatic combustion control is very versatile and can be installed on most fireplaces and stoves.
The only requirement is that the fireplace must have an external air intake (EAI).
This air intake is usually provided through a round flange under the fireplace, with a diameter between 100 and 150 mm.
A damper is installed on this flange to regulate the amount of air entering the fireplace.

Is automatic combustion control really good enough at saving wood to be worth it for the average user?

In the Czech Republic, statistics show that fireplaces are typically used about three days a week during the winter season.
Thanks to the fuel savings achieved with automatic combustion control, the investment usually pays for itself within 2 to 3 years.
And that’s not all — automatic control also improves thermal comfort, increases operational safety, and extends the lifespan of your heating system.

How complicated is the installation? Do I need a professional to install it?

The installation itself is quite simple — all components are connected using plug-in connectors.
However, the final connection and setup should be done by a trained technician to make sure the fireplace program is configured correctly for safe and efficient operation.

Each fireplace is different and has different properties. How is this handled?

Every automatic combustion control unit allows you to select a program that best matches your specific fireplace.
Once selected, the combustion control operates automatically according to the chosen program to ensure optimal performance.

How do I start and stop the regulation process?

You can start the regulation process manually by pressing a button on the front panel or through the mobile app.
If a door sensor is installed, the regulation process starts automatically when you open the fireplace door.
The process ends automatically if no new batch of wood is added.

How far does the central unit need to be from the fireplace in terms of temperature?

The required distance depends on the technical parameters.
The maximum allowable temperature affecting the central unit and the display is 50 °C.
Make sure the unit is installed in a location where this temperature is not exceeded.

Can automatic combustion control also operate other devices?

It depends on the type of combustion control unit.
Some models are equipped with a relay contact that allows you to control other devices, such as a kitchen hood, heat recovery system, circulation pump, and more.
In addition, certain units can also be integrated into a smart home system via the MODBUS TCP communication protocol.

Where is the best place to draw air for combustion?

We recommend supplying combustion air from a technical room, a spacious hallway, or even from a garage.
If none of these options are available, air can be brought in from the exterior.
The least suitable option is to take air from heated living spaces — in that case, the chimney system would pull already heated air outside, leading to energy loss.

What happens if there is a power outage?

In the event of a power outage, the automatic combustion control system stops regulating the air supply. 
Some models can be equipped with a servo motor with a return spring, which automatically opens the EAI damper to maintain safe airflow.
If your system does not have this feature, you may need to manually open the damper after a power outage to ensure safe operation.

Can I install the automatic combustion control later, after my fireplace has been built?

Yes, installation is possible even after your fireplace or stove has been built, as long as there is an external air intake available.
In some cases, minor modifications may be needed to properly connect the system, but in most installations it is a straightforward process.
