But they can also wear out. However, this does not mean that they have to be replaced straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Camping stoves can often be repaired with simple means,\" says Erik Wiren, expert at Primus. \"Some of the first Primus stoves from the 19th century are still working today - proof of how durable they can be with the right care,\" he adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"warum-du-deinen-trekking-kocher-regelmassig-warten-solltest\">Why you should service your trekking stove regularly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Primus offers over 20 different stoves for various purposes, from the Essential Trail Stove to the OmniLite Stove Ti outdoor stove. While the latter costs several hundred euros due to its high-quality components, entry-level models are available for less than 30 euros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"A low price is no reason to throw away a camping stove if it no longer works properly,\" explains Erik. \"At Primus, we attach great importance to ease of maintenance and offer spare parts for almost every model.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Longer-lasting products save money and are more environmentally friendly. A large proportion of greenhouse gas emissions are caused by material processing and the disposal of products. By extending the lifespan of products, we can have a positive impact on the climate. \"That's why we develop products that are designed to last a lifetime,\" explains Erik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"487\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-1024x487.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-1024x487.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-scaled-600x285.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-300x143.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-768x365.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-1536x731.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-2048x975.webp 2048w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-18x9.webp 18w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-280x133.webp 280w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/6e1d61087b97e28ad737af6bccb51b3aa25d0ee2-5472x2604-1-1290x614.webp 1290w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"outdoor-kocher-die-haufigsten-probleme-und-losungen\">Outdoor stove - The most common problems and solutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Erik knows all Primus products inside out. Problems usually occur in the form of mechanical defects or signs of wear and tear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Our multi-fuel stoves need to be cleaned frequently. A thorough cleaning is often enough to rectify malfunctions,\" says Erik. \"Typical mechanical faults often affect the ignition, but even these can usually be repaired.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Primus offers spare parts for almost all problems, from fuel filters to complete service kits. Every year before the main hiking season, Primus offers spare parts free of charge as part of the \"Service for a Reason\" campaign. Since 2023, this applies to all Primus stoves, including double-burner and open-fire stoves. \"If a part of the outdoor stove needs to be replaced, we will send it to you free of charge,\" emphasizes Erik. In 2023, the promotion runs from February 1 to March 31.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-1024x563.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33192\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-1024x563.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-600x330.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-300x165.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-768x422.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-1536x844.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-18x10.webp 18w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-280x154.webp 280w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1-1290x709.webp 1290w, https:\/\/www.sport-kaiser.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/cf57682de3f6b120020537639eee8cdd508ab876-1970x1083-1.webp 1970w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"welche-kenntnisse-sind-zur-reparatur-eines-campingkochers-notwendig\">What knowledge is required to repair a camping stove?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Primus service offering is aimed at all target groups - repairing an outdoor stove is usually simple and only requires basic tools. \"More important than mechanical knowledge is an understanding of how the respective model works,\" explains Erik. \"If you know how the outdoor stove works, you can identify and rectify problems at an early stage.
