HEATER WHILE IT IS IN USE.

• IN THE EVENT OF A CHIMNEY FIRE, PUSH THE AIR CONTROL FULL CLOSED TO DEPRIVE THE FIRE OF OXYGEN.

CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

• DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.

• A SOURCE OF FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM OR SPACE HEATED SHALL BE PROVIDED WHEN REQUIRED.

• ONLY OPERATE THE STOVE WITH THE DOOR CLOSED. OPERATING WITH THE DOOR OPEN COULD CAUSE

OVERFIRING.

POSITIONING THE STOVE

It is very important to position the wood stove as close as possible to the chimney, and in an area that will favor

the most efcient heat distribution possible throughout the house. The stove must, therefore, be installed in the

room where the most time is spent and in the most spacious room possible. Recall that wood stoves produce

radiating heat, the heat we feel when we are close to a wood stove. A wood stove also functions by convection,

that is through the displacement of hot air accelerated upwards and its replacement with cooler air. If necessary,

the hot air distribution from the stove may be facilitated by the installation of a blower. Route power cord away

from unit. Do not route power cord under or in front of appliance. The wood stove must not be hooked up to a

hot air distribution system since an excessive accumulation of heat may occur.

FLOOR PROTECTOR

This heater must have a non-combustible oor protector (ember protection) installed beneath it if the oor is

of combustible material. If a oor pad is used, it should be UL listed or equal. The oor pad or non-combustible

surface should be large enough to extend under the stove and beyond each side as indicated. If there is a

horizontal run of ue pipe, there needs to be oor protection under it that extends two inches beyond either side

of the pipe.

FREE STANDING STOVE CLEARANCES

A wood stove must never be installed in a hallway or near a staircase, since it may block the way in case of re

or fail to respect required clearances. It is of utmost importance that the clearances to combustible materials be

strictly adhered to during installation of the stove. Refer to the tables below:

• Do not place any combustible material within 4’ (1.2m) of the front of the unit.

• The clearance between the ue pipe and a wall are valid only for vertical walls and for vertical ue pipe.

• The chimney connector must not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, a

oor, or a ceiling.

• For Canadian installations, where passage through a wall, or partition of combustible construction is desired,

the installation must conform to CAN/CSA-B365.

• A ue pipe crossing a combustible wall must have a minimum clearance of 18” (457.2mm).

• To reduce ue clearances from combustible materials, contact your local safety department.

SPECIAL MOBILE HOME REQUIREMENTS

WARNING! - Do not install in a sleeping room

CAUTION! - The structural integrity of the mobile home oor, wall, and ceiling/roof must be maintained.

In addition to the previously detailed installation requirements, mobile home installations must meet the following

requirements:

• The space heater is to be connected to a factory-built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-S629, Standard for

650°C Factory-Built Chimneys.

• The heater must be permanently attached to the oor. There are two holes in the pedestal base, use 3/8”

bolts through the oor.

• The heater must be electrically grounded to the steel chassis of the mobile home with 8 GA copper wire

using a serrated or star washer to penetrate paint or protective coating to ensure grounding.

• When moving your mobile home, all exterior venting must be removed while the mobile home is being

relocated. After relocation, all venting must be reinstalled and securely fastened.

• Outside Air is mandatory for mobile home installation. See your dealer for purchasing.

• Check with your local building ofcials as other codes may apply.

• Only use the specied components listed in this manual for this unit. The use of components that are not

meant for this unit can cause unsafe conditions.

COMBUSTION AIR ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance requires a source of combustion air. If your home is of tight construction or has negative pressure

problems, you will need an outside source of air. Below is a list of possible indicators that a source of outside

combustion air may be required.

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATIONS - REQUIRED

• Your stove does not draw steadily, smoke rollout occurs, wood burns poorly, or back-drafts occur whether or

not there is combustion present.

• Existing fuel-red equipment in the house, such as replaces or other heating appliances, smell, do

not operate properly, suffer smoke roll-out when opened, or back-drafts occur whether or not there is

combustion present.

• Opening a window slightly on a calm (windless) day alleviates any of the above symptoms.

• The house is equipped with a well-sealed vapor barrier and tight tting windows and/or has any powered

devices that exhaust house air.

• There is excessive condensation on windows in the winter.

• A ventilation system is installed in the house.

If an outside air intake is required, you may purchase a standard 4” Dryer Vent kit from your local hardware

supply store and install it on the rear of the appliance.

When using a Dryer venting kit, the outlet cover must be of a design that DOES NOT close by means of a ap

or trap door. You must purchase a style that allows a continuous in-ow of air and that has a rodent screen. This

adapter can be purchased from your dealer.

4FAK INSTALLATION

Follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions for attaching the dryer vent kit to the home. Then, attach it to

the adapter on the combustion air inlet on the back of the pedestal as shown.

“Dryer Venting Kit”

Installation

Slide the hose clamp over the aluminium ex pipe. Then slide the ex pipe

over the air intake tube of the stove. Next tighten the hose clamp over the

end of the aluminium ex hose.

-6-

CHIMNEY CONNECTOR (STOVE PIPE)

Your chimney connector and chimney must have the same diameter as the stove outlet (6”). If this is not the

case, we recommend you contact your dealer in order to insure there will be no problem with the draft.

The stove pipe must be made of aluminized or cold roll steel with a minimum thickness of 0.021” or 0.53 mm. It is

strictly forbidden to use galvanized steel.

Your smoke pipe should be assembled in such a way that the male section (crimped end) of the pipe faces

down. Attach each of the sections to one another with three equidistant metal screws. Seal with furnace cement.

The pipe must be short and straight. All sections installed horizontally must slope at least 1/4 inch per foot, with

the upper end of the section toward the chimney. Any installation with a horizontal run of chimney pipe must

conform to NFPA 211. You may contact NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) and request the latest edition

of the NFPA Standard 211.

To insure a good draft, the total length of the coupling pipe should never exceed 8’ to 10’ (2.4m to 3.04 m).

(Except for cases of vertical installation, cathedral-roof style where the smoke exhaust system can be much

longer and connected without problem to the chimney at the ceiling of the room).

There should never be more than two 90 degrees elbows in the smoke exhaust system.

Installation of a “barometric draft stabilizer” (replace register) on a smoke exhaust system is prohibited.

Furthermore, installation of a draft damper is not recommended. Indeed, with a controlled combustion wood

stove, the draft is regulated upon intake of the combustion air in the stove and not at the exhaust.

IMPORTANCE OF PROPER DRAFT

Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your

chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too

much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance and may cause damage. Inadequate draft

may cause backpufng into the room and ‘plugging’ of the chimney.

Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room through appliance and chimney

connector joints. An uncontrollable burn or excessive temperature indicates excessive draft.

CHIMNEY

Your wood stove may be hooked up with a 6” factory built or masonry chimney. If you are using a factory built

chimney, it must comply with UL 103 or CSA-B365 standard; therefore it must be a Type HT (2100°F). It is extremely

important that it be installed according to the manufacturer’s specications. Take into account the chimney’s

location to insure it is not too close to neighbors or in a valley which may cause unhealthy or nuisance conditions.

If you are using a masonry chimney, it is important that it be built in compliance with the specications of the

National Building Code. It must be lined with re clay bricks, metal or clay tiles sealed together with re cement.

(Round ues are the most efcient).

The interior diameter of the chimney ue must be identical to the stove smoke exhaust. A ue which is too

small may cause draft problems, while a large ue favours rapid cooling of the gas, and hence the build-up of

creosote and the risk of chimney res. Note that it is the chimney and not the stove which creates the draft effect;

your stove’s performance is directly dependent on an adequate draft from your chimney.

The following recommendations may be useful for the installation of your chimney:

1. Do not connect this unit to a chimney ue serving another appliance.

2. It must rise above the roof at least 3’ (0.9m) from the uppermost point of contact.

3. The chimney must exceed any part of the building or other obstruction within a 10’ (3.04m) distance by a

height of 2’ (0.6m).

4. Installation of an interior chimney is always preferable to an exterior chimney. Indeed, the interior chimney

will, by denition, be hotter than an exterior chimney, being heated up by the ambient air in the house.

Therefore the gas which circulates will cool more slowly, thus reducing the build-up of creosote and the risk

of chimney res.

The draft caused by the tendency for hot air to rise will be increased with an interior chimney.

Using a re screen at the extremity of the chimney requires regular inspection in order to insure that it is not

obstructed thus blocking the draft, and it should be cleaned when used regularly.

Exterior chimney should be double or triple wall.

-8-

MASONRY CHIMNEY

Ensure that a masonry chimney meets the minimum standards of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)

by having it inspected by a professional. Make sure there are no cracks, loose mortar or other signs of deterioration

and blockage. Have the chimney cleaned before the stove is installed and operated. When connecting the

stove through a combustible wall to a masonry chimney, special methods are needed.

-9-

FACTORY BUILT CHIMNEY

When a metal prefabricated chimney is used, the manufacturer’s installation instructions must be followed. You

must also purchase (from the same manufacturer) and install the ceiling support package or wall pass-through

and “T” section package, restops (where needed), insulation shield, roof ashing, chimney cap, etc. Maintain

proper clearance to the structure as recommended by the manufacturer. The chimney must be the required

height above the roof or other obstructions for safety and proper draft operation.

-10-

Method A. 12” (304.8 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall

Member: Using a minimum thickness 3.5” (89 mm) brick and a

5/8” (15.9 mm) minimum wall thickness clay liner, construct a

wall pass-through. The clay liner must conform to ASTM C315

(Standard Specication for Clay Fire Linings) or its equivalent.

Keep a minimum of 12” (304.8 mm) of brick masonry between the

clay liner and wall combustibles. The clay liner shall run from the

brick masonry outer surface to the inner surface of the chimney

ue liner but not past the inner surface. Firmly grout or cement the

clay liner in place to the chimney ue liner.

Method B. 9” (228.6 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall

Member: Using a 6” (152.4 mm) inside diameter, listed, factory-

built Solid-Pak chimney section with insulation of 1” (25.4 mm) or

more, build a wall pass-through with a minimum 9” (228.6 mm) air

space between the outer wall of the chimney length and wall

combustibles. Use sheet metal supports fastened securely to wall

surfaces on all sides, to maintain the 9” (228.6 mm) air space.

When fastening supports to chimney length, do not penetrate

the chimney liner (the inside wall of the Solid-Pak chimney). The

inner end of the Solid-Pak chimney section shall be ush with the

inside of the masonry chimney ue, and sealed with a non-water

soluble refractory cement. Use this cement to also seal to the

brick masonry penetration.

Method C. 6” (152.4 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall

Member: Starting with a minimum 24 gage (.024” [.61 mm]) 6”

(152.4 mm) metal chimney connector, and a minimum 24 gage

ventilated wall thimble which has two air channels of 1” (25.4 mm)

each, construct a wall pass-through. There shall be a minimum 6”

(152.4) mm separation area containing berglass insulation, from

the outer surface of the wall thimble to wall combustibles. Support

the wall thimble, and cover its opening with a 24-gage minimum

sheet metal support. Maintain the 6” (152.4 mm) space. There

should also be a support sized to t and hold the metal chimney

connector. See that the supports are fastened securely to wall

surfaces on all sides. Make sure fasteners used to secure the metal

chimney connector do not penetrate chimney ue liner.

Method D. 2” (50.8 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall

Member: Start with a solid-pak listed factory built chimney section

at least 12” (304 mm) long, with insulation of 1” (25.4 mm) or more,

and an inside diameter of 8” (2 inches [51 mm] larger than the

6” [152.4 mm] chimney connector). Use this as a pass-through for

a minimum 24-gauge single wall steel chimney connector. Keep

solid-pak section concentric with and spaced 1” (25.4 mm) off

the chimney connector by way of sheet metal support plates at

both ends of chimney section. Cover opening with and support

chimney section on both sides with 24 gage minimum sheet metal

supports. See that the supports are fastened securely to wall

surfaces on all sides.

NOTES:

Connectors to a masonry chimney, excepting method B, shall extend in one continuous section through the

wall pass-through system and the chimney wall, to but not past the inner ue liner face.

A chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a oor,

or ceiling.

WOOD UTILIZATION

Your heating unit was designed to burn wood only, no other materials should be burned. Waste and other

ammable materials should not be burned in your stove. Any type of wood may be used in your stove, but

specic varieties have better energy yields than others. Please consult the following table in order to make the

best possible choice. This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efciencies and lower emissions

generally result when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly

cut hardwoods.

DO NOT BURN:

1. Garbage;

2. Lawn clippings or yard waste;

3. Materials containing rubber, including tires;

4. Materials containing plastic;

5. Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners,

or asphalt products;

6. Materials containing asbestos;

7. Construction or demolition debris;

8. Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood;

9. Manure or animal remains;

10. Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water

saturated materials;

11. Unseasoned wood; or

12. Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or

particleboard. The prohibition against burning

these materials does not prohibit the use of re

starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust,

wax and similar substances for the purpose of

starting a re in an affected wood heater.

Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.

Dead wood lying on the forest oor should be considered wet, and requires full seasoning time. Standing dead

wood can usually be considered to be about 2/3 seasoned. Splitting and stacking wood before it is stored

accelerates drying time. Storing wood on an elevated surface from the ground and under a cover or covered

area from rain or snow also accelerates drying time. A good indicator if wood is ready to burn is to check the

piece ends. If there are cracks radiating in all directions from the center then the wood should be dry enough

to burn. If your wood sizzles in the re, even though the surface is dry, it may not be fully cured, and should be

seasoned longer.

Do not burn manufactured logs made of wax impregnated sawdust or logs with

any chemical additives. Manufactured logs made of 100% compressed sawdust

can be burned, but be careful burning too much of these logs at the same time.

Start with one manufactured log and see how the stove reacts. You can increase

the number of logs burned at a time to making sure the temperature never rises

higher than 475 °F (246 °C) on a magnetic thermometer for installation on single wall

stove pipes or 900 °F (482 °C) on a probe thermometer for installation on double

wall stove pipe. The thermometer should be placed about 18” (457 mm) above the

stove. Higher temperatures can lead to overheat and damage your stove.

It is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that you use DRY WOOD only in your wood stove. The wood should have dried for 9

to 15 months, such that the humidity content (in weight) is reduced below 20% of the weight of the log. It is very

important to keep in mind that even if the wood has been cut for one, two or even more years, it is not necessarily

dry, if it has been stored in poor conditions. Under extreme conditions it may rot, instead of drying. This point

cannot be over stressed; the vast majority of the problems related to the operation of a wood stove is caused by

the fact that the wood used was too damp or has dried in poor conditions. These problems can be:

- ignition problems - creosote build-up causing chimney res

- low energy yield - blackened windows

- incomplete log combustion

Smaller pieces of wood will dry faster. All logs exceeding 6” in diameter should be split. The wood should not be

stored directly on the ground. Air should circulate through the cord. A 24” to 48” air space should be left between

each row of logs, which should be placed in the sunniest location possible. The upper layer of wood should be

protected from the elements but not the sides.

TESTING YOUR WOOD

When the stove is thoroughly warmed, place one piece of split wood (about ve inches in diameter) parallel to

the door on the bed of red embers. Keep the air control full open by pulling on it and close the door. If ignition

of the piece is accomplished within 90 seconds from the time it was placed in the stove, your wood is correctly

dried. If ignition takes longer, your wood is damp. If your wood hisses and water or vapor escapes at the ends

of the piece, your wood is soaked or freshly cut. Do not use this wood in your stove. Large amounts of creosote

could be deposited in your chimney, creating potential conditions for a chimney re.

TAMPER WARNING

This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is against federal

regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating

instructions in this manual.

THE FIRST FIRES

The fresh paint on your stove needs to be cured to preserve its quality. Once the fuel charge is properly ignited,

only burn small res in your stove for the rst four hours of operation. Never open the air control more than

necessary to achieve a medium burn rate. Make sure that there’s enough air circulation while curing the stove.

The odors could be smelled during the 3 or 4 rst res. Never start your stove outside. You will not be able to see

if you are over heating.

IGNITION

The top down method of re building is recommended for this appliance. After making sure that the stove air

intake controls are fully open (completely pull-out towards you), place the largest pieces of wood on the bottom,

laid in parallel and close together. Smaller pieces are placed in a second layer, crossways to the rst. A third layer

of still smaller pieces is laid crossways to the second, this time with some spaces between. Then a fourth layer of

loose, small kindling and twisted newspaper sheets tops off the pile. Before igniting the paper and kindling wood,

it is recommended that you warm up the chimney. This is done in order to avoid back draft problems often due

to negative pressure in the house. If such is the case, open a window slightly near the stove and twist together a

few sheets of newspaper into a torch. Light up this paper torch and hold it as close as possible to the mouth of

the pipe inside the combustion chamber to warm up the chimney. Once the updraft movement is initiated, you

are ready to ignite the stove by lighting the paper and kindling wood inside the combustion chamber. When you

have achieved a good bed of hot embers, we recommend the following burn procedures:

-13-

CAUTION: Never alter the damper slide or the adjustment range to increase ring for any reason. Doing so could result in

heater damage and will void your warranty.

HEATING

Controlled combustion is the most efcient technique for wood heating because it enables you to select the type

of combustion you want for each given situation. The wood will burn slowly if the wood stove air intake control is

adjusted to reduce the oxygen supply in the combustion chamber to a minimum. On the other hand, wood will

burn quickly if the air control is adjusted to admit a larger quantity of oxygen in the combustion chamber. Refer

to the primary air settings table for damper operation setting. Real operating conditions may give very different

results than those obtained during testing according to the species of wood used, its moisture content, the size

and density of the pieces, the length of the chimney, altitude and outside temperature.

WARNINGS

• NEVER OVERFIRE YOUR STOVE. IF ANY PART OF THE STOVE STARTS TO GLOW RED, OVER FIRING IS HAPPENING.

READJUST THE AIR INTAKE CONTROL AT A LOWER SETTING.

• THE INSTALLATION OF A LOG CRADLE OR GRATES IS NOT RECOMMENDED IN YOUR WOOD STOVE. BUILD FIRE

DIRECTLY ON FIREBRICK.

• NEVER PUT WOOD ABOVE THE FIREBRICK LINING OF THE FIREBOX.

• ATTEMPTS TO ACHIEVE HEAT OUTPUT RATES THAT EXCEED HEATER DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS CAN RESULT IN

PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE HEATER.

EFFICIENCY

Efciencies can be based on either the lower heating value (LHV) or the higher heating value (HHV) of the fuel.

The lower heating value is when water leaves the combustion process as a vapor, in the case of woodstoves the

moisture in the wood being burned leaves the stove as a vapor. The higher heating value is when water leaves

the combustion process completely condensed. In the case of woodstoves this would assume the exhaust gases

are room temperature when leaving the system, and therefore calculations using this heating value consider

the heat going up the chimney as lost energy. Therefore, efciency calculated using the lower heating value of

wood will be higher than efciency calculated using the higher heating value. In the United States all woodstove

efciencies should be calculated using the higher heating value.

The best way to achieve optimum efciencies is to learn the burn characteristic of you appliance and burn well-

seasoned wood. Higher burn rates are not always the best heating burn rates; after a good re is established a

lower burn rate may be a better option for efcient heating. A lower burn rate slows the ow of usable heat out

of the home through the chimney, and it also consumes less wood.

VISIBLE SMOKE

The amount of visible smoke being produced can be an effective method of determining how efciently the

combustion process is taking place at the given settings. Visible smoke consist of unburned fuel and moisture

leaving your stove. Learn to adjust the air settings of your specic unit to produce the smallest amount of visible

smoke. Wood that has not been seasoned properly and has a high wood moisture content will produce excess

visible smoke and burn poorly.

RELOADING

Once you have obtained a good bed of embers, you should reload the unit. In order to do so, open the air

controls to maximum a few seconds prior to opening the stove’s door. Then proceed by opening the door very

slowly; open it one or two inches for 5 to 10 seconds, before opening it completely to increase the draft and thus

eliminate the smoke which is stagnant in a state of slow combustion in the stove. Then bring the red embers to

the front of the stove and reload the unit.

For optimal operation of your wood stove, we recommend you to operate it with a wood load approximately

equivalent to the height of re bricks. Do not stack wood higher than the rebrick.

It is important to note that wood combustion consumes ambient oxygen in the room .In the case of negative

pressure, it is a good idea to allow fresh air in the room, either by opening a window slightly or by installing a fresh

air intake system on an outside wall.

Creosote - Formation and Need for Removal - When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic

vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively

cool chimney ue of a slow-burning re. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the ue lining. When ignited

this creosote makes an extremely hot re. The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least

once every two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote build-up has occurred. If creosote

has accumulated (3mm or more), it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re.

CAUTIONS:

ASHES COULD CONTAIN HOT EMBERS EVEN AFTER TWO DAYS WITHOUT OPERATING THE STOVE.

We strongly recommend that you install a magnetic thermometer on your smoke exhaust pipe, approximately

18” above the stove. This thermometer will indicate the temperature of your gas exhaust fumes within the smoke

exhaust system. The ideal temperature for these gases is somewhere between 275°F and 500°F. Below these

temperatures, the build-up of creosote is promoted. Above 500 degrees, heat is wasted since a too large quantity

is lost into the atmosphere.

TO PREVENT CREOSOTE BUILD UP

• Always burn dry wood. This allows clean burns and higher chimney temperatures, therefore less creosote

deposit.

• Leave the air control full open for about 5 min. every time you reload the stove to bring it back to proper

operating temperatures. The secondary combustion can only take place if the rebox is hot enough.

• Always check for creosote deposit once every two months and have your chimney cleaned at least once a

year.

If a chimney or creosote re occurs, close all dampers immediately. Wait for the re to go out and the heater to

cool, then inspect the chimney for damage. If no damage results, perform a chimney cleaning to ensure there is

no more creosote deposits remaining in the chimney.

OPERATIONAL TIPS

• Get the appliance hot and establish a good coal bed before adjusting to a low burn rate (this may take 30 minutes or

more depending on your wood)

• Use smaller pieces of wood during start-up and a high burn rate to increase the stove temperature

• Be considerate of the environment and only burn dry wood

• Burn small, intense res instead of large, slow burning res when possible

• Learn your appliance’s operating characteristics to obtain optimum performance

• Burning unseasoned wet wood only hurts your stoves efciency and leads to accelerated creosote buildup in your

chimney.

ASH DISPOSAL

Whenever ashes get 3 to 4 inches deep in your rebox or ash pan, and when the re has burned down and

cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1 inch deep on the rebox bottom to help

maintain a hot charcoal bed. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-tting lid. The closed

container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible oor or on the ground, away from all combustible

materials, pending nal disposal. The ashes should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have

thoroughly cooled. It is strongly recommended that ashes in the metal container are taken outside immediately,

and are not stored within your home.

SOOT FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL

When wood is burned, the products of combustion combine with moisture to form a soot residue which

accumulates on the ue lining. When ignited, this soot makes an extremely hot re. The chimney connector and

chimney should be inspected at least once every two month during the heating season to determine if a soot

buildup has occurred. If soot has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re.

SMOKE AND CO MONITORS

Burning wood naturally produces smoke and carbon monoxide(CO) emissions. CO is a poisonous gas when

exposed to elevated concentrations for extended periods of time. While the modern combustion systems in

heaters drastically reduce the amount of CO emitted out the chimney, exposure to the gases in closed or conned

areas can be dangerous. Make sure you stove gaskets and chimney joints are in good working order and sealing

properly to ensure unintended exposure. It is recommended that you use both smoke and CO monitors in areas

having the potential to generate CO. MAINTENANCE

Your wood stove is a high efciency stove and therefore requires little maintenance. It is important to perform

a visual inspection of the stove every time it is emptied, in order to insure that no parts have been damaged,

in which case repairs must be performed immediately. Inspect and clean the chimney and connector pipe

periodically for creosote buildup or obstructions.

GLASS

• Inspect and clean the glass regularly in order to detect any cracks. If you spot one, turn the stove off

immediately. Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. Do not use the stove if the glass is

broken.

• If the glass on your stove breaks, replace only with the glass supplied from your heater dealer. Never

substitute other materials for the glass.

• To replace the glass, remove the screws retaining the glass mouldings inside the door. Remove the

mouldings and replace the damaged piece with a new one. Perform the procedure backwards after

replacing. When replacing the glass, you should change the glass gasket to make sure you keep it sealed.

• Never wash the glass with a product that may scratch. Use a specialized product, available in the stores

where wood stoves are sold. The glass should be washed only when cold.

GASKETING

It is recommended that you change the door gasket (which makes your stove door air tight) once a year, in order to

insure good control over the combustion, maximum efciency and security. To change the door gasket, simply remove the

damaged one. Carefully clean the available gasket groove, apply a high temperature silicone sold for this purpose, and

install the new gasket. You may light up your stove again approximately 24 hours after having completed this operation. This

unit’s door uses a 1” diameter rope gasket.

PAINT

Only clean your stove with a dry soft cloth that will not harm the paint nish. If the paint becomes scratched or damaged,

it is possible to give your wood stove a brand new look, by repainting it with a 1200° F heat resistant paint. For this purpose,

simply scrub the surface to be repainted with ne sand paper, clean it properly, and apply thin coats (2) of paint successively.

AIR TUBES

The air tubes assembled in this unit are designed to provide an accurate mix of secondary air to insure the highest efciency.

Any damage or deterioration of these tubes may reduce the efciency of combustion. The air tubes are held in position by

either screws or snap pins. Locate these to either side of the tube and remove to allow the tube to be removed and replaced.

WARNING: Never operate the stove without a gasket or with a broken one. Damage to the stove or even

house re may result.
