2 Operating Instructions
User Guide
1. Symptoms of Over-Firing
Symptoms of over-ring may include one or more of the
following:
• Chimney connector or appliance glowing
• Roaring, rumbling noises
• Loud cracking or banging sounds
• Metal warping
• Chimney re
2. What To Do if Your Appliance is Over-Firing
• Immediately close the door and air controls to reduce
air supply to the re.
• If you suspect a chimney re, call the re department
and evacuate your house.
• Contact your local chimney professional and have
your appliance and appliance pipe inspected for any
damage.
• Do not use your appliance until the chimney
professional informs you it is safe to do so.
Hearth & Home Technologies WILL NOT warranty
appliances that exhibit evidence of over-ring. Evidence of
over-ring includes, but is not limited to:
• Warped air tube
• Deteriorated refractory brick retainers
• Deteriorated bafe and other interior components
A. Over-Firing Your Appliance
B. Wood Selection & Storage
Burn only dry seasoned wood. Store wood under cover,
out of the rain and snow. Dry and well-seasoned wood will
not only minimize the chance of creosote formation, but will
give you the most efcient re. Even dry wood contains at
least 15% moisture by weight, and should be burned hot
enough to keep the chimney hot for as long as it takes to
dry the wood out - about one hour. It is a waste of energy
to burn unseasoned wood of any kind.
Fire Risk.
Do not over-re.
Over-ring may ignite creosote or will damage the
appliance and chimney.
WARNING
To prevent over-ring your appliance, DO NOT:
• Use ammable liquids
• Overload with wood

Dead wood lying on the forest oor should be considered
wet, and requires full seasoning time. Standing dead wood
can be considered to be about 2/3 seasoned. To tell if
wood is dry enough to burn, check the ends of the logs. If
there are cracks radiating in all directions from the center,
it is dry. If your wood sizzles in the re, even though the
surface is dry, it may not be fully cured.
Splitting wood before it is stored reduces drying time.
Wood should be stacked so that both ends of each piece
are exposed to air, since more drying occurs through the
cut ends than the sides. This is true even with wood that
has been split. Store wood under cover, such as in a shed,
or covered with a tarp, plastic, tar paper, sheets of scrap
plywood, etc., as uncovered wood can absorb water from
rain or snow, delaying the seasoning process.
C. Burning Process
In recent years there has been an increasing concern about
air quality. Much of the blame for poor air quality has been
placed on the burning of wood for home heating. In order
to improve the situation, we at Quadra-Fire have developed
cleaner-burning wood appliances that surpass the
requirements for emissions established by our governing
agencies. These wood appliances, like any other
appliances, must be properly operated in order to insure
that they perform the way they are designed to perform.
Improper operation can turn most any wood appliance into
a smoldering environmental hazard.
1. Kindling or First Stage
It helps to know a little about the actual process of burning
in order to understand what goes on inside a appliance.
The rst stage of burning is called the kindling stage. In
this stage, the wood is heated to a temperature high
enough to evaporate the moisture which is present in
all wood. The wood will reach the boiling point of water
(212°F) and will not get any hotter until the water is
evaporated. This process takes heat from the coals and
tends to cool the appliance.
Fire requires three things to burn - fuel, air and heat. So, if
heat is robbed from the appliance during the drying stage,
the new load of wood has reduced the chances for a good
clean burn. For this reason, it is always best to burn dry,
seasoned rewood. When the wood isn’t dry, you must
open the air controls and burn at a high burn setting for a
longer time to start it burning. The heat generated from the
re should be warming your home and establishing the ue
draft, not evaporating the moisture out of wet, unseasoned
wood, resulting in wasted heat.

2. Second Stage
The next stage of burning, the secondary stage, is the
period when the wood gives off ammable gases which
burn above the fuel with bright ames. During this stage of
burning it is very important that the ames be maintained
and not allowed to go out. This will ensure the cleanest
possible re. If the ames tend to go out, it is set too low for
your burning conditions. The air control located at the upper
right hand corner is used to adjust for burn rates. This is
called the Burn Rate Air Control (Figure 11.1).
3. Final Stage
The nal stage of burning is the charcoal stage. This occurs
when the ammable gases have been mostly burned and
only charcoal remains. This is a naturally clean portion of
the burn. The coals burn with hot blue ames.
It is very important to reload your appliance while enough
lively hot coals remain in order to provide the amount of
heat needed to dry and rekindle the next load of wood. It
is best to open the Burn Rate Air and Start-Up Air Controls
before reloading. This livens up the coal bed and reduces
excessive emissions (opacity/smoke). Open door slowly so
that ash or smoke does not exit appliance through opening.
You should also break up any large chunks and distribute
the coals so that the new wood is laid on hot coals.
Air quality is important to all of us, and if we choose to
use wood to heat our homes we should do so responsibly.
To do this we need to learn to burn our appliances in the
cleanest way possible. Doing this will allow us to continue
using our wood appliances for many years to come.
D. Air Controls
Users will need to nd their preferred setting between
high and low based on desired heat output, installation
conguration, and fuel type.
1. Burn Rate Air Control
This air supply enters at the upper front of the rebox, near
the top of the glass door. This preheated air supplies the
necessary fresh oxygen to mix with the unburned gases,
helping to create second, third and fourth combustions.
This air is regulated by the Burn Rate Air Control. When
the control is moved all the way up it is on the High setting
and when moved all the way down it is on the Low setting
(Figure 11.1).
2. Automatic Combustion Control System (ACC)
To engage the Automatic Combustion Control (ACC) timer
system push the lever towards the back of the appliance to
the “HI” position, then pull forwards towards the front of the
appliance until the knob stops. The timer will slowly close in
about 25 minutes. Use this feature when reloading fuel or if
you want more air supplied to the re (Figure 11.3).
E. Using Burn Rate Air Control & ACC System
1. Start up and Reloading Fuel
Open both Burn Rate Air Control and ACC systems fully. To
do this with the Burn Rate Air Controls push spring handle
up to high. For the ACC timer system push knob towards
back of appliance until the knob is located under the high
position (Figure 11.1).
2. Maximize Heat with The ACC System
To maximize heat output with the ACC timer System or also
known as high burn push the ACC Air Control lever towards
the back of the appliance and leave. This combined with
having the main burn rate control lever pushed up will
deliver the most amount of air needed to achieve the
highest amount of heat output (Figure 11.1).
3. Manual Timer Over-Ride
If you need to shut the ACC system off before it goes
through the cycle of shutting itself off; 25 minutes, reach
towards the back of the appliance on the right side and pull
the lever towards the front of the appliance (Figure 11.2).
12 7039-173H August 13, 2018
Discovery I
Figure 12.2
After activating the timer (ACC), if the control is placed
within the rear air section on the label it will allow rear air
to enter the rebox. This will not interfere with the timer
gradually closing the front air channel in 25 minutes. If
control is set on “HI” it over-rides the timer (ACC).
F. Burn Rates and Operating Efciency
For maximum operating efciency
This wood appliance 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 appliance in a manner inconsistent with operating
instructions in this manual.
• Burn dry, well-seasoned wood.
Burn Rates
1. Low burn setting:
• Burn Rate Air Control spring handle up to high
position for 5 minutes.
• Then activate the ACC timer system by pushing the
knob all the back toward the appliance to “HI” then
pull forwards towards the front of the appliance
until the knob stops (Figure 9.1 on page 9).
• At that point close the Burn Rate Air Control by
moving the spring handle to the low setting.
2. Medium low burn setting:
• Burn Rate Air Control spring handle up to high
position for 5 minutes.
• Then activate the ACC timer system by pushing the
knob all the back toward the appliance to “HI” then
pull forwards towards the front of the appliance
until the knob stops.
• At that point move the Burn Rate Air Control spring
handle to 1/8”-1/2” from the low setting.
3. Medium high burn setting:
• Burn Rate Air Control spring handle up to high
position.
• Then activate the ACC timer system by pushing the
knob all the back toward the appliance to “HI” then
pull forwards towards the front of the appliance
until the knob stops.
• At that point move the Burn Rate Air Control spring
handle to 1/2” – high.
4. High burn setting:
• Burn Rate Air Control spring handle up to high
position
• Also activate ACC timer system knob pushed back
to the “HI” position.
NOTE: The above information is provided as a guideline
only. Altitude and other circumstances may
require control adjustments to achieve the
desired burn rates.
NOTE: Operate appliance on High Burn 45 minutes a day
to help keep ue/chimney clean.
WARNING
Risk of Fire.
When set on High Burn Rate and over-riding the
Automatic Combustion Control system an over re
situation can occur and may result in a chimney
re.
Over ring will void the appliance warranty.
NOTE: If using the optional blower use burn settings 1-3
burn settings the blower shall be off for the rst 30
minutes and then be operated in the high position
at 30 minutes. For high burn setting, blower may
continue to be on full after the loading of the fuel.

G. Building A Fire
Before lighting your rst re in the appliance:
NOTE: The special high temperature paint that your
appliance is nished with will cure as your
appliance heats. You will notice an odor and
perhaps see some vapor rise from the appliance
surface; this is normal. We recommend that you
open a window until the odor dissipates and paint
is cured.
Figure 13.2
1. Conrm the bafe is correctly positioned. It should
be even with the front tube and resting on all tubes
(Figure 13.1 and 13.2).
2. Remove all labels from glass and inside of appliance.
There are many ways to build a re. The basic principle is
to light easily-ignitable tinder or paper, which ignites the
fast burning kindling, which in turn ignites the slow-burning
rewood. Here is one method that works well:
1. Open the Burn Rate Air and ACC Controls fully (Refer to
page 6 Start-Up Guide).
2. Place several wads of crushed paper on the rebox
oor. Heating the ue with slightly crumpled newspaper
before adding kindling keeps smoke to a minimum.
3. Lay small dry sticks of kindling on top of the paper.
4. Make sure that no matches or other combustibles
are in the immediate area of the appliance. Be
sure the room is adequately ventilated and the ue
unobstructed.
5. Light the paper in the appliance. NEVER light or
rekindle re with kerosene, gasoline, or charcoal lighter
uid; the results can be fatal.
6. Once the kindling is burning quickly, add several full-
length logs 3 inches (76mm) or 4 inches (102mm) in
diameter. Be careful not to smother the re. Stack the
pieces of wood carefully; near enough to keep each
other hot, but far enough away from each other to allow
adequate air ow between them.
7. Set the Burn Rate Air Control and activate the ACC
timer system.
8. When ready to reload, It is best to fully open both
the Burn Rate Air and Start-up Air Controls before
reloading. This livens up the coal bed and reduces
excessive emissions (opacity/smoke). Open door
slowly so that ash or smoke does not exit appliance
through opening. Large logs burn slowly, holding a re
longer. Small logs burn fast and hot, giving quick heat.
9. As long as there are hot coals, repeating steps 6
through 8 will maintain a continuous re.
NOTE:
• Build re on brick rebox oor.
• Do NOT use grates, andirons or other methods to
support fuel. It will adversely affect emissions.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Do NOT store wood:
• Closer than required clearances to
combustibles to appliance
• Within space required for loading or ash
removal.
Do NOT operate appliance:
• With appliance door open.
• With ash removal system door open.
Fire Risk.
• Do NOT burn wet or green wood.
• Store wood in dry location.
• Stack wood so both ends are exposed to air.
Wet, unseasoned wood can cause accumulation
of creosote.

I. Blower Operating Instructions
NOTE: If your Quadra-Fire wood appliance is equipped
with an optional blower, you should follow these
guidelines:
1. Initial (cold) start-up and all Burn Settings
The blower can be plugged in and turned on right
away. The blower fan is turned on and off by a snap
disc. When your appliance has reached a certain
temperature the blower will turn on and when your
appliance has cooled down to a certain temperature
it will turn off. Switch on blower control must be set to
auto for this feature to work.
2. The blower is equipped with a speed control. Adjust
the fan speed by turning the speed control clockwise to
“Low” or counterclockwise to “High”.
3. Snap Disc Location
If you nd the blower coming on and off at undesirable
temperatures, relocate the snap disc to another
location in the designated zone on the back of the
appliance (Figure 15.1). There is a manual over-ride
switch to deactivate the snap disc, if necessary.
WARNING
When burning your rst re, you will experience smoke
and odor from the appliance resulting from the curing
of paint and burning off of any oils remaining from
manufacturing.
OPEN WINDOWS DURING INITIAL BURN TO
DISSIPATE SMOKE AND ODORS!
• Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.
• Smoke detectors may activate.
CAUTION
Fire Risk.
Keep combustible materials, gasoline and other
ammable vapors and liquids clear of appliance.
• Do NOT store ammable materials in the
appliance’s vicinity.
• DO NOT USE GASOLINE, LANTERN FUEL,
KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID
OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR
“FRESHEN UP” A FIRE IN THIS Appliance.
• Keep all such liquids well away from the
appliance while it is in use.
• Combustible materials may ignite.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
• DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE
FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR
ENGINE OIL.
• Do NOT burn treated wood or wood with salt
(driftwood).
• May generate carbon monoxide if burn
material other than wood.
May result in illness or possible death.
J. Opacity (Smoke)
This is the measure of how cleanly your appliance is
burning. Opacity is measured in percent; 100% opacity is
when an object is totally obscured by the smoke column
from a chimney, and 0% opacity means that no smoke
column can be seen. As you become familiar with your
appliance, you should periodically check the opacity. This
will allow you to know how to burn as nearly smoke-free as
possible (goal of 0% opacity).

3 Maintenance and Service
August 13, 2018 7039-173H 19
Discovery I
B. General Maintenance
1. Creosote (Chimney) Cleaning
• Frequency: Every 2 months during heating season or
as recommended by a certied chimney sweep; more
frequently if chimney exceeds or is under 14-16 ft.
(measured from bottom of appliance)
• By: Certied Chimney Sweep
Remove all ash from the rebox and extinguish all hot
embers before disposal. Allow the appliance to cool
completely. Disconnect ue pipe or remove bafe and
ceramic blanket from appliance before cleaning chimney.
Otherwise residue can pile up on top of the bafe and
ceramic blanket and the appliance will not work properly.
(See Bafe Removal on page 23). Close the door tightly.
The creosote or soot should be removed with a brush
specically designed for the type of chimney in use. Clean
out fallen ashes from the rebox.
It is also recommended that before each heating season
the entire system be professionally inspected, cleaned and
repaired if necessary.
Inspection: Inspect the system at the appliance connection
and at the chimney top. Cooler surfaces tend to build
creosote deposits quicker, so it is important to check the
chimney from the top as well as from the bottom.
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 newly-started or a slow-burning re. As
a result, creosote residue accumulates on the ue lining.
When ignited, this creosote creates an extremely hot re
which may damage the chimney or even destroy the house.
The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected
once every 2 months during the heating season to
determine if a creosote or soot buildup has occurred. If
creosote or soot has accumulated, it should be removed to
reduce the risk of a chimney re.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Prevent creosote buildup.
• Inspect chimney connector and chimney once
every two months during heating season.
• Remove creosote to reduce risk of chimney
re.
• Ignited creosote is extremely HOT.
Fire Risk.
• Do not use chimney cleaners or ame
colorants in your appliance. Will corrode
chimney pipe.
WARNING
CAUTION
• Do not use polishes with abrasives. It will scratch
plated surfaces.
Fire Risk.
Disposal of Ashes
• Ashes should be placed in metal container
with tight tting lid.
• Do not place metal container on combustible
surface.
• Ashes should be retained in closed container
until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
WARNING
2. Cleaning Plated Surfaces
• Frequency: Prior to first burn and then as desired
• By: Homeowner
Clean all the ngerprints and oils from plated surfaces
BEFORE ring the appliance for the rst time. If not
cleaned properly before lighting your rst re, the oils can
cause permanent markings on the plating.
After the plating is cured, the oils will not affect the nish
and little maintenance is required. Wipe clean as needed.
3. Disposal of Ashes
• Frequency:
When ash is within 1-3/4 in. (44mm) of
rebox lip
• By: Homeowner
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed
on a non-combustible oor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials, pending nal disposal. If the
ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container
until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
20 7039-173H August 13, 2018
Discovery I
4. Glass Cleaning
• Frequency: As desired
• By: Homeowner
Clean glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Abrasive
cleaners may scratch and cause glass to crack. If the
deposits on the glass are not very heavy, normal glass
cleaners work well. Heavier deposits may be removed by
using a damp cloth dipped in wood ashes or by using a
commercially available oven cleaner.
After using an oven cleaner, it is advisable to remove any
residue with a glass cleaner or soap and water. Oven
cleaner left on during the next ring can permanently stain
the glass and damage the nish on metal surfaces.
A portion of the combustion air entering the rebox is
deected down over the inside of the door glass. This
air ow “washes” the glass, helping to keep smoke from
adhering to its surface.
When operated at a low burn rate, less air will be owing
over the glass and the smokey, relatively cool condition of a
low re will cause the glass to become coated.
Operating the appliance with the Burn Rate Air Control and
Start-Up Air Control all the way open for 30-45 minutes
should remove the built up coating.
CAUTION
• Do not use polishes with abrasives. It will scratch
surfaces.
