THE ADVANTAGES OF DAN SKAN <strong>STOVE</strong>S<br />
1. SUPERIOR MATERIAL STRENGTH<br />
<strong>The</strong> service life of any stove is governed<br />
by the thickness and fire resistance of the<br />
materials used, especially within the fire<br />
chamber. <strong>The</strong> thicker the material then<br />
the more resilient to the effects of high<br />
temperature the stove will be.<br />
Dan SKan materials are therefore<br />
chosen in accordance so that our stoves<br />
successfully pass a number of stringent<br />
stability and security tests.<br />
For example, the Dan SKan baking<br />
shelves, which are subject to the greatest<br />
effects of the fire are constructed with a<br />
minimum of 5 mm thick plate steel and<br />
all Dan SKan door handles are made<br />
of solid stainless steel so that they<br />
remain robust and durable even after<br />
many years of operation.<br />
2. STABLE DOOR CONSTRUCTION<br />
Doors made from strong materials and<br />
with a solid construction are particularly<br />
important for the efficient and safe<br />
operation as well as the lifespan of your<br />
stove. Dan SKan doors and carrying<br />
frames remain stable even after many<br />
years of use, opening and closing the<br />
same way they did when they were first<br />
new. Once you compare the quality and<br />
construction of Dan SKan doors and<br />
frames with any others it‘s very easy to<br />
see Dan SKan‘s many benefits.<br />

<strong>The</strong> MODErn linE stoves all feature<br />
superior strength cast iron doors whilst<br />
the double doors used in the ClaSSiC<br />
range, not only provide excellent<br />
strength and stability, but they also enable<br />
the door to carry a bigger glass area,<br />
which in turn provides a much greater<br />
view of the fire.<br />
3. GLASS DOOR AIR WASHING<br />
a clear view of the fire and the wonderful<br />
flame patterns is one of the great pleasures<br />
of owning a stove. However, if the glass is<br />
to remain clean during operation it must<br />
have an effective air wash. Even the largest<br />
glass window on a Dan SKan stove will<br />
remain clear because of the close proximity<br />
of the incoming fresh air to the glass – the<br />
closer it is then the more effective the air<br />
wash and cleaning process is at keeping the<br />
smoke and particulates away. in addition<br />
Dan SKan windows benefit from being air<br />
washed at the top and bottom as well as<br />
from the sides. <strong>Stove</strong>s with air wash at the<br />
top only cannot provide the same air wash<br />
efficiency as a Dan SKan stove.<br />
4. FIRE CHAMBER LINING<br />
all Dan SKan fire chamber linings are<br />
constructed out of 30 mm thick heat-reflecting<br />
Skamol plates which remain strong and,<br />
stable during the extremely high temperatures<br />
of the firing process.<br />
Dan SKan firebricks fit snuggly together,<br />
leaving sufficient room for expansion, and<br />
do not rely on grouting to maintain their<br />
stability so that they can always be easily<br />
replaced later, even by a novice. grouted<br />
fire chambers look good at first but almost<br />
always fail later with bigger panels cracking<br />
during the expansion process.<br />

5. THE TWO LAYERED RIDDLE<br />
GRATE<br />
a two-layered riddle grate, which<br />
can be closed for wood burning to<br />
shut off combustion air from below is<br />
definitely a ‘must have’ for any multi<br />
fuel stove. an original Dan SKan<br />
innovation! a stove which can change<br />
simply from mineral fuel burning to<br />
wood burning is hardly thinkable<br />
without this Dan SKan invention.<br />
So much so that many leading stove<br />
manufacturers adapted the Dan<br />
SKan double-layered riddle grate,<br />
however our clever protected design<br />
is still the original and the best.<br />

6. THE PULL CONTROL<br />
Dan SKan stoves do not require the<br />
typical controls that you see on other<br />
stoves for the regulation of combustion<br />
air. On a Dan SKan this work<br />
is taken over by the intelligent automatic<br />
bimetal 'thermostat' system.<br />
<strong>The</strong> rectangular pull control, with the<br />
logo, on our Classic stoves (round on<br />
the Modern line) is the only control<br />
that you will need to use – and it's<br />
very simple. <strong>The</strong> pull control is adjusted<br />
by pulling outwards to open the<br />
supply of basic combustion air. <strong>The</strong><br />
rest of the combustion air regulation<br />
is then taken over automatically by<br />
by the intelligent automatic bimetal<br />
system which will maintain an ideal<br />
supply of air. When burning the pull<br />
control is always open.<br />

any stove should be easy to see and<br />
immediately understand. <strong>The</strong> single
