             Stove



                                                                              02

                                                        Firewood is stored in open sheds on either
                                                         side of the backyard. Fire starters can be
                                                         found in the pantry cabinet along with a
                                                                              lighter.






                                                                              03





                                                          Before lighting the fire, ensure that the
                                                         damper or air vents on the stove are fully
                                                              open to allow for proper airflow.

                                                            Arrange small pieces of kindling in a
                                                         crisscross pattern. Add a couple of small
                                                        logs on top of the kindling. Add larger logs
                                                              as needed to keep the fire going.

                                                       When you're finished using the stove, allow
                                                          the fire to burn down completely. Make
                                                        sure the damper is fully closed to prevent
                                                                               drafts.
