1. Fireplace stove - only wood which is prepared at Aranka can be used for heating in the fireplace stove. The fireplace heats up the living space, the sauna and the bathroom. If you want to make fire in the stove, first use crumpled pieces of newspaper and wood chips, which you spread out evenly on the crumpled newspaper. Pull the chimney flap towards you (upper stainless steel rod on the right side of the stove), pull the fresh air intake towards you (lower stainless steel rod on the right side of the stove), light the newspaper with a match or lighter to catch the fine chips and later larger pieces wood on fire. After lighting the newspaper, close the glass fireplace door and wait for the stove to light up. Then close the chimney flap and the air intake by sliding the two stainless steel rods away from you. Place the wood evenly so that the stove is not overfilled and the door can always be closed safely.

It can be controlled by inserting the shower hose with the head into the bayonet quick coupling into the part that is a fixed part of the Aranka construction.

18. CO2 - Aranka or also minimal mobile unit; the name itself implies that the size is rather intimate. The occupant feels comfortable and cozy inside. On the other hand, we need to keep in mind that we consume oxygen and exhale CO2 when breathing. Fireplace stove behaves similarly. During your stay in Aranka, it is therefore necessary to continuously ventilate in order to exchange air. If we heat in a fireplace, we ventilate all the more often until the air in Aranka is fresh. Thorough ventilation is necessary during your stay at Aranka and especially before bedtime.

19. Rules of safe stay in Aranka and the surrounding landscape

Aranka and the nature that surrounds it inspire us with their harmony and beauty. The landscape is a place where we feel safe, but it can turn into a trap and possible danger. This requires ourselves to treat Aranka and the surrounding countryside with respect, caution and, above all, foresight. The nature around Aranka is wild and beautiful and that is also the reason why it makes such an impression on us and we are so happy to return there. However, it is very important to constantly follow important safety principles and recommendations.
The rocks and slopes that model the surroundings in the immediate vicinity of Aranka can become a dangerous place if we do not keep a safe distance from the edge of the rocks or if we enter the slope from where we can fall and be very seriously injured.
If we have children with us, we need to pay very close attention to their safety and make sure that we do not allow them access to dangerous places. Children must be supervised by their parents or another adult who has taken full responsibility for them during any movement around Aranka. The Client is responsible for the safety of all guests, including children.
For your own safety and that of your loved ones, never climb the surrounding rocks, enter their edges, slopes or near them. Keep a distance of at least a few meters from the edge of the rocks.
If it has just rained or the soil is moist from dew or snow, or frozen, move with great care everywhere, so as not to slip and cause unpleasant injuries.
Never climb Aranka or the surrounding trees, leave the high branches and treetops to the birds and the wind, which suits them better.
If you decide to go swimming, never jump into the water, sharp and unexpected objects may be hidden under the surface. Non-swimmers must always wear safety equipment such as life jackets and rings.
Never step on the surface of the pond if there is ice on it. Although it may seem strong enough, its strength may not be the same everywhere and you may fall through.
In the event of an accident, seek medical help immediately, small wounds can be treated with a first aid kit, which is located in the Aranka library. In the Czech Republic, the following telephone numbers are reserved for emergency calls (calls are free):

150 Fire and Rescue Service of the Czech Republic
