Have recently had a Willow multifuel stove properly installed with register plate, chimney liner etc. However, I am struggling to keep the fire alight once the initial burn of the firelighters have worn off.
I have followed the advice about getting the fire started with rolls of paper or firelighters, building up a nest of kindling wood then adding bigger bits of wood or coal, with the vents of the stove open, but I always find that the fire dies out after the firelighter has expired. The only way I can seem to get it going again is to add another firelighter - which rather defeats the object!
Does anyone have any advice/knowledge on how to keep a fire lit, for longer than 10 minutes ?!
Many thanks.
