INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Nectre Baker’s Oven. The Baker’s Oven combines a wood-fueled heater with an oven and cooktop. The oven will cook anything from crispy bread to succulent roasts. The cooktop takes four large saucepans and features two removable rings for wok- style cooking. Best of all, Baker’s Oven will spread warmth throughout your kitchen and living area while it cooks.
INSTALLATION
Firstly, check the local building and heating regulations. Different councils in New Zealand have varying regulations about the installation and operation of wood-fired cooking appliances, and you and your installer should be aware of these.
- Rear 125mm
- Side 350mm
If the appliance is placed in the corner of a room, the minimum clearance from
the corner edge of the appliance to the nearest combustible surface is 350mm.
Refer technical specification document for detailed dimensions.
The diagram below shows the minimum clearances to adjacent walls for parallel
installation: the minimum hearth dimensions (750mm x 973mm), and the
dimensions of the Bakers Oven.
CONSTRUCTING THE FLUE
The Nectre Bakers Oven must be installed with a standard 4.2M long Masport
flue system with a dropbox or flue system with a dropbox that has been tested
and comply with AS/NZS 2918:2001, Appendix F. Also, the main flue pipe should
be fitted with a 900mm long 180° arc or 900mm long Masport stainless steel
double flue shield.
The flue kit should be made of stainless steel or vitreous enameled steel, and
it shall extend not less than 4.6m above the top of the floor protector and
meets the requirements of AS2918/2001. The length will depend on ceiling
height and roof design, but the top of the flue pipe must be a minimum of
600mm above the ridge of the roof if the flue penetrates the roof within 3m of
the ridge. Or to be of sufficient height to be 3m from the roofline
horizontally, but a minimum height of 1m.
If the draft is insufficient or periodic down drafting occurs, and the
appliance smokes or only burns slowly, extending the flue or fitting a
specialised cowl will usually cure it.
Where the flue penetrates the ceiling and roof, it must comply with
AS2918:2001. If the baker’s oven is fitted to an existing chimney, ensure that
it is sealed at the base of the chimney with a register plate and fit the flue
pipe up through the plate and continue until it terminates outside the chimney
in accordance with AS2918:2001 4.9.1.
The flue kit must be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
IMPORTANT NOTES

- OPEN AIR CONTROL (AND DAMPER WHERE FITTED) BEFORE OPENING FIREBOX DOOR.
- THE APPLIANCE AND FLUE-SYSTEM SHALL BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AS/NZS 2918 AND THE APPROPRIATE REQUIREMENTS OF THE RELEVANT BUILDING CODE OR CODES.
RECOMMENDED FUEL:-
Use any dry hardwood that has been seasoned for at least 12 months. All fuel
should be stored with protection from the weather to minimise any potential
moisture content.
FLUE FIRE:-
In the event of a chimney fire, close the primary air spindle control to
suffocate the fire.
WHERE A WATER JACKET IS FITTED:-
Wetbacks for baker’s oven are made of boiler grade stainless steel and are
factory fitted. Wetback models of the baker’s oven should be installed in
accordance with AS3500.4.1 or NZS 4603 and the appropriate requirements of the
relevant building code or codes.
Wetback model must only be fitted to open vented hot water systems. Please
note that fitting to a mains pressure system is extremely dangerous and could
lead to an explosion. Installation of wetback pipework must only be carried
out by a registered plumber and the appropriate requirements of all relevant
building codes and best practices. Refer the following guidelines for
connecting wetback models different hot water systems.
Guidelines for low-pressure hot water systems header tank (open vented)
Guidelines for low-pressure hot water systems low level (open vented)
OTHER NOTES:-
- The first time the fire is lit, the appliance will give off some fumes while the paintcures.
- The surfaces of this appliance get hot when the fire has been lit. Please ensure that children, the elderly, and the infirm are made aware of this.
- Never burn woods containing paint, glue, or any other chemical treatments.
- Do not use the fire as an incinerator only burn appropriately seasoned wood.
- Do not overload the appliance with wood.
- Do not operate the stove with the firebox door open.
- Do not operate the appliance with a cracked glass.
- This appliance should be maintained and operated at all times in accordance with these instructions.
- Mixing of appliance or flue-system components from different sources or modifying the dimensional specification of the components may result in hazardous conditions.
Where such action is considered, the manufacturer should be consulted in the first instance.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The Nectre Baker’s Oven has the firebox at the top and the oven below. Heat is
directed around the oven by closing the damper located next to the flue outlet
on top of the stove. The damper is closed when the lever is in the up
position.
Necessary air for combustion is provided via two air controls. Primary air is
provided via an adjustable spindle located on the front of the firebox door,
while secondary air enters via an inlet at the top of the door allowing the
air to ‘wash’ over the glass door keeping it free from sooty deposits.
Before lighting your Baker’s Oven, ensure that the damper control is open (the
control lever is in the down position).
This appliance has been developed to burn wood only. Burn only dry, well-
seasoned firewood which has been cut, split and stacked for at least 12
months, with free air movement allowing it to dry out. Burning wet or
unseasoned wood will create tar deposits in the stove and chimney/flue and
will not produce a satisfactory heat output.
In NZ, radiata pine or macrocarpa is the most commonly available softwood
species that are suitable for firewood. Other hardwood species like eucalyptus
(bluegum) can also be mixed with softwood to achieve longer burns.
LIGHTING THE STOVE
-
To light the stove, first, make sure that the damper is open (down position), and the primary air spindle control on the firebox door is fully open.
-
Light a fire using finely chopped wood and establish it so that it has plenty of flames. As soon as the fire is going briskly, close the damper. This directs the flames and flue gases down the sides and around the oven.
-
Keep the fire burning briskly until the oven is up to temperature.
NOTE: the temperature gauge on the oven door is only a guide to the temperature in the oven. We have found that when the gauge is reading around 100°C, the internal oven temperature is more like 180°C. It is a good idea to use a meat thermometer when cooking. -
Toadd more fuel to the fire, it is advisable to open the damper (down position) before opening the door. When the firebox is loaded and the door shut, then close the damper (up position). This will avoid having smoke come into the room.
OPERATION WHEN COOKING:-
Always have a brisk fire using small pieces of wood that provide plenty of
flames. This type of fire will maintain an oven temperature. The hot plates
may be removed using the hot-plate tool provided to enable wok-style cooking
directly on the fire.
OPERATION WHEN HEATING:-
-
Increase Heat Output
To increase the heat output from the fire, use larger pieces of wood, ensure the damper is in closed (up position) and use the spindle tool to open the primary air inlet until the level of burning is reached.
With the primary air spindle fully open, the fire will burn very hot, but the wood won’t last long.
For a longer burn time, reduce the amount of primary air by partially closing the air spindle.
The oven may become too hot if run in this mode continually. -
Background heating with more extended Burn Time
For background heating and increased burn time, use larger pieces of wood, ensure the damper is closed and using the spindle tool to close the primary air inlet. In this mode, the wood will burn for extended periods; however, the oven temperature will drop.
MAINTENANCE
No unauthorised modification of this appliance should be carried out.
- Removing the Ashes — Depending on the type of wood burned, the ashes will need removing every 2 to 6 weeks. With a small shovel, push the hot coals to one side and shovel most of the ash into a metal bucket. Leave a minimum 10mm thick bed of ash in the bottom of the firebox, allowing the fire to operate at its optimum. Inside the oven is a removable base plate. This plate should be lifted out and any soot underneath removed.
- Cleaning Paintwork and Glass — The stove, when cold, can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Over the years, the black will fade and can be touched up with high-temperature stove paint. A good hot fire will burn away any deposits left on the glass because of a long slow burn. A dampened newspaper with ash or a non-caustic oven cleaner can be used to clean the glass. It is not advisable to use a cleaner that contains caustic chemicals and abrasive cleaners. The hot plates can also be removed for cleaning.
- Secondary Air Inlet — A metal strip at the top of the firebox door can be adjusted in and out with the Allen key provided. The strip should be set, leaving a gap of 1mm between the edge of the strip and the front of the Baker’s Oven. This gap provides secondary air supply.
- Door Seal — The door seal is a 13mm round fiberglass braided rope. If it detaches from the groove in the door or needs to be replaced, it can be fixed using silicone.
- Fire Bricks — In normal use, these can last for many years. It is possible, however, to crack them if logs are continually jammed against them or if frequently struck with a poker. Check periodically for severely broken firebricks, which can be replaced with new ones available from your dealer.
- Firebox Side Shields — The inner sides of the firebox are protected by 8mm thick steel sheets. Over time these can burn through. In such an event, new ones can be sourced from your dealer and re-hung inside the firebox.
- Chimney Cleaning — The frequency with which the chimney will need cleaning will depend on the way that the stove has been used, as well as the type and dryness of the wood burned. Keep an eye on the flue passages, and if there appears to be abuild-up of soot, it is time to clean the flue.
