Residential Type and Building Heating Appliance

Chimney. Use a 6˝/152mm diameter chimney,

that is high enough to give a good draft. (See

specics in Chimney Connections instructions).

10. Be sure that your chimney is safely constructed and

in good repair. Have the chimney inspected by

the re department or a qualied inspector. Your

insurance company should be able to recommend

a qualied inspector. Chimney connector pipe

must be in good condition. Replace if necessary

before using stove.

11. Creosote or soot may build up in the chimney

connector and chimney and cause a house/

building re. Inspect the chimney connector and

chimney twice monthly during the heating season

and clean if necessary. (see Service Hints).

12. In the event of a chimney re, turn the air controls

to closed positions, leave the building and CALL

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT IMMEDIATELY! Have a clearly

understood plan on how to handle a chimney

re by contacting your local re authority for

information on proper procedures in the event of a

chimney re. After the re is out, the chimney must

be cleaned and inspected for any stress or cracks

before starting another re. Check the condition

of any combustibles surrounding the chimney.

13. Ashes should not be allowed to accumulate above

the top of the lower primary air orice (LPAO, air

vent at front of rebox, just inside of door).

14. DISPOSAL OF ASHES Ashes should be placed in a

steel container with a tight tting lid and moved

outdoors immediately. The closed container of

ashes should be placed on a noncombustible 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 completely cooled.

Other waste shall not be placed in this container.

15. To prevent injury, do not allow anyone to use this

stove who is unfamiliar with the correct operation

of the stove.

16. Do not operate stove while under the inuence of

17. DO NOT ELEVATE THE FIRE. Build re directly on

the bottom of the rebox. This stove has not been

tested with the use of grates, and irons or other

means of elevating the re and must not be used.

18. The special paints used on your stove may give off

some smoke and an odor while they are curing

during the rst 12 to 15 res. Additional smoke and

odor may be emitted from the light oils used in

construction of the re box. This should disappear

after a short period of time and not occur

again. Persons with lung conditions or owners of

susceptible domestic pets (such as birds) should

take prudent precautions. Open windows and

doors as needed to clear smoke and/or odor.

Paint discoloration will occur if the stove is over

red.

19. This stove has a painted surface which is durable

but it will not stand rough handling or abuse. When

installing your stove, use care in handling.

20. CLEAN STOVE FREQUENTLY as soot, creosote and

ash may accumulate. Clean exterior with soap

and warm water when stove is not hot. Do not use

any acids or scouring soap, as these solvents wear

and dull the nish.

21. ALERT ALL PERSONS TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH

SURFACE TEMPERATURES while stove is in operation

– especially young children. Keep away from a

hot stove to avoid burns or clothing ignition.

22. NEVER LEAVE SMALL CHILDREN UNSUPERVISED

WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE STOVE.

If small children will be in the same room as the

stove during operation, provide a sturdy barrier to

keep them at a safe distance from the stove.

23. Keep stove area clear and free from all combustible

materials, gasoline, engine oil, naphtha and other

ammable vapors and liquids.

24. WHILE TENDING THE FIRE ALWAYS WEAR PROTECTIVE

CLOTHING, re retardant hearth gloves and eye

protection, to prevent burns.

25. Never operate this stove without ash drawer, ash

clean out or with the door open except when

refueling. Such actions can result in very dangerous

operating conditions.

26. DO NOT OVER FIRE THE STOVE. Over ring will occur

if combustion air is uncontrolled as when feed

door is left open during operation. Such actions

can result in very dangerous operating conditions.

While in operation, keep the feed door closed and

secured at all times except while tending the re

27. When adding fuel be careful not to smother the

re. Do not build res against glass and do not

load fuel to a height or in such a manner that it

creates a hazard when opening the door.

28. NEVER LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED with door

open. Always close the door after ignition.

29. DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN CONJUNCTION

WITH ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT WORK

UNLESS SPECIFICALLY APPROVED FOR SUCH

INSTALLATIONS.

30. A WOOD-BURNING STOVE MUST NEVER BE

INSTALLED IN A HALLWAY OR NEAR A STAIRCASE,

as it may block egress in the event of a re.

31. DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM. DO NOT

INSTALL IN AN ALCOVE OR INSIDE A FIREPLACE.

32. Install at least one smoke detector on each oor

of your home. Detectors should be located away

from the heating appliance to avoid false alarms.

Detectors should be located close to sleeping

areas. Follow the smoke detectors manufacturer’s

placement and installation instructions. Maintain

smoke detector per manufacturer’s instructions.

33. CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) HAZARD. Some fuels

(e.g charcoal, which should never be used in this

appliance) have the possibilities of generating

carbon monoxide. A buildup of CO fumes is toxic

and can be fatal. Carbon Monoxide is a colorless,

odorless gas produced during combustion of

wood, coal, oil, gas and by other fuel burning

appliances. It is important to have a proper draft

and adequate replacement air ventilation so fumes

are drawn out the chimney. Installed as instructed

this stove is designed to be as safe as possible yet

it is recommended to install a CO detector. Follow

the manufacturer’s recommendations for proper

installation and use. It is recommended to be

placed at table-top level (not near the ceiling) to

avoid false alarms. Realize that devices other than

a stove (i.e. motor exhaust) can trigger CO alarms.

• If alarm sounds:

• Recognize the symptoms of CO poisoning

(headaches,nausea & drowsiness).

• Increase ventilation (open windows & doors).

• Make sure stove doors and/or lids are closed

and secured.

• Check stove for smoking or pufng (open air

ow controls).

• Check chimney & connector pipe for leaks,

blockage or down-draft conditions.

• Check CO device for false alarm.

34. Keep power cords, electrical appliances and/or

assemblies outside of the clearance area shown

in this manual for combustible materials.

35. Consult your municipal building department or re

ofcials about restrictions, permits and installation

requirements for your area.

36. For further information on using your stove safely,

obtain a copy of the National Fire Protection

Association (NFPA) publication, “Using Coal and

Wood Stoves Safely” NFPA No. HS-10-1978. Write

LOCATING STOVE continued…

Connector pipe is used to make the connection

from the ﬁnal positioning of your stove to an approved

chimney. Connector pipe is NOT included as part of

the stove. Connector pipe must be 6”/152mm diameter

minimum of 24 MSG (minimum standard gauge) black

or 26 MSG blue steel stove pipe. Connector pipe is NOT

rated to provide close contact to combustible materi-

als and must have proper clearance from combustible

materials as shown in the clearance diagrams on the

previous pages. Connector pipe should never be used

in place of a chimney. If proper clearances are not ob-

served a house ﬁre could result.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

PLEASE NOTE: Installation of a draft damper is NOT

recommended. Combustion control is regulated by the

intake of combustion air, not the exhaust.

1. The tapered end of the connector stovepipe ﬁts into

the stove ﬂue collar. Secure with three sheet metal

screws. Notice: For side or rear venting, you must

have a minimum 24”/61cm vertical rise from top of

stove to horizontal pipe sections (see ﬁg. 7).

2. Horizontal pipe must slope up towards the chimney

at least 1/4”/6.4mm per foot of horizontal run.

3. You must have at least 18˝/46cm of clearance be-

tween any horizontal piping and the ceiling.

4. The pipe cannot extend into the chimney ﬂue (ﬁg. 10).

5. Secure pipe/elbow sections with three sheet metal

screws at each joint to make the piping rigid. Screws

may be no more than a maximum of 3˝/76mm apart.

6. It is recommended that no more than two (2)

90 degree bends be used in the stovepipe instal-

lation. The use of more than two 90 degree bends

may decrease the amount of draw and possibly

cause smoke spillage. Where possible, use only

corrugated (nonadjustable) elbows. These provide

a better seal.

7. The connector pipe must not pass through an attic

or roof space, trusses, closet, or any concealed

space, or ﬂoor, ceiling, wall or combustible con-

struction. (See Chimney Connector Systems &

Clearances, page 19). A UL 103 HT (US)/ULC-

S629 (CDN) listed chimney must be used from the

ﬁrst penetration of ceiling or wall to the chimney cap.

Where passage through a wall or partition of com-

bustible construction is desired, the installation

shall conform to NFPA 211 (US) or CAN/CSA-B365

(Canada)

Chimney Sizing

Today’s solid fuel heating appliances are much more efcient than those made in the past. Your heating

appliance has been designed to provide the most efcient transfer of heat possible from the least amount of

fuel. Controlled combustion is the key to optimum heating performance. Controlled combustion requires a ow

of fresh air into the appliance, across the fuel and is nally exhausted up the chimney. Today’s high efciency

stoves transfer more heat into the living area and less up the chimney. Exhaust gases are typically at a lower

temperature than traditional type stoves. With lower exhaust temperatures, it is important that the chimney is

correctly sized to the stove. If the chimney diameter is too large, it will be difcult to raise the chimney ue

temperature to provide for adequate draft. This may result in a poor burn, smoke spillage, and rapid creosote

creation. A 6” diameter chimney is best suited for this stove. Your heating appliance must have a minimum

of a 6” diameter (152mm) chimney. Maximum chimney diameter must not exceed 10” (254mm) or have a

cross sectional area greater than 85 sq. in. (550cm²). Proper draft for this heating appliance is minimum of 0.05

w.c. (water column measurement) and is required to prevent back pufng, smoke spillage and prevent safety

hazards. 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.

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. 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 CONNECTIONS

The stove must be connected to either a code approved masonry chimney with ue liner or manufactured

metal chimney system built and tested to the specications listed on the previous pages. Chimneys perform two

functions:

1. As a means of exhausting smoke and ue gases which are the result of fuel combustion.

2. The chimney (only) provides “draft” which allows oxygen to be continuously introduced into the appliance,

so that proper combustion is possible. This stove relies on natural draft to operate.

NOTICE: Always provide a source of fresh air into the room where the stove is located. Failure to do so may result

in air starvation of other fuel burning appliances and the possible development of hazardous conditions, re or

death.

A stove DOES NOT create draft. Draft is provided by the chimney. To achieve proper draft your chimney must

meet the four minimum height requirements detailed in gures 11–13. If these minimum requirements are not met

your stove will not operate properly. A minimum of 0.05 w.c. (measured in water column) is required for proper

drafting to prevent back pufng, smoke spillage, and to maximize performance. (Gauges to measure draft are

readily available at stove stores and are economical to rent or purchase.) Factors such as wind, barometric

pressure, trees, terrain and chimney temperature can have an adverse effect on the draft. The manufacturer

cannot be held responsible for external factors leading to less than optimal drafting. Should you have a problem

with inadequate draft, you should contact a licensed heating and cooling contractor for assistance in solving the

problem. For a more in-depth explanation see Chimney Draft.

-11-

Chimney Connections

Chimney Minimum Height Requirements:

(1) Overall Height – 15 ft. min.

(2) Height above roof – 3 ft

(3) Height above slope – 2 ft. min. within 10 ft.

(4) Minimum rise before horizontal section – 24 in.

NOTICE: If minimum chimney requirements are

not met, your stove will not operate properly

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION POINTS

1. Size chimney ue to stove collar. This stove requires a minimum of a 6” diameter ue.

2. Never connect this unit to a chimney serving another appliance.

3. The chimney must meet all minimum height requirements.

4. Never use a chimney to ventilate a cellar or basement.

5. Contact your local building authority for approved methods of installation and any necessary permits and/

or inspections.

MASONRY CHIMNEY

Connection may be made to a code-approved masonry chimney with ue liner. Before using an existing masonry

chimney, clean the chimney, inspect the ue liner and make any repairs needed to be sure it is safe to use. Make

repairs before attaching the stove. The connector stove pipe and ttings you will need to connect directly to

a lined masonry chimney are shown in gure 10. If the connector stove pipe must go through a combustible

wall before entering the masonry chimney, consult a qualied mason or chimney dealer. The installation must

conform to local building and re codes and latest edition of NFPA 211. If there is a clean out opening in the base

of the chimney, close it tightly.

MANUFACTURED CHIMNEY

REFER TO CHIMNEY AND CHIMNEY CONNECTOR MAKER’S INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION AND USE.

Use only 6” diameter chimney listed to UL 103 HT. Chimney made to this listing is High Temperature rated to 2100

degrees Fahrenheit. Use chimney from only one manufacturer. Never mix brands. Carefully follow the chimney

manufacturer’s stated requirements and clearances. Use the chimney manufacturer’s attic guards, roof supports,

ashing and re stops when passing through a ceiling. Use a listed thimble when passing through a combustible

wall. Do not use makeshift compromises during installation. WARNING: DO NOT USE A SINGLE-WALL CONNECTION

PIPE AS A CHIMNEY!

When using a pre-existing chimney, have it’s condition and installation inspected before using. Make sure that

the chimney meets all of the UL rating requirements listed above. Be aware that not all manufactured chimney

is of the UL 103 HT type. NOTE: It is recommended that you contact a licensed heating and cooling contractor

(consult your local yellow pages) for chimney installation. Manufactured chimney with the proper required UL

listing is available from most home centers, hardware stores, and HVAC supply stores. If you have access to

the internet, you may wish to view chimney manufacturers’ information on-line. See, www.duravent.com, www.

selkirkinc.com, or www.mtlfab.com.

VENTING TO EXISTING FIREPLACE

In some instances, people desire to convert an existing replace for stove use. Usually, safe connection to an

existing masonry chimney requires more work than using a prefabricated chimney. The existing replace must

be closed and sealed at the damper with high-temperature caulk, ceramic wool, or furnace cement. Prior to

installation, clean and inspect the existing ue and smoke shelf. Installation should be designed so the system

can be dismantled for periodic cleaning and inspection. Before conversion, make sure the existing chimney is

structurally sound, the chimney incorporates a ue liner and make sure it is in good condition. (A ue liner consists

of clay tile that protects the brickwork of a chimney. If a chimney does not have a liner, or it is damaged, have

it relined by a professional.

-12-

Do Not use a chimney that is unlined or damaged! If you have any question regarding the condition of the

chimney, consult a qualied licensed contractor, qualied engineer, competent mason, certied Chimney

Sweep, or a knowledgeable inspector. Consult your insurance company if you cannot nd a qualied expert.

Many prefabricated replaces are of the “zero-clearance replace” category. These consist of multi layered

metal construction. They are designed with enough insulation and/or air cooling on the base, back and sides so

they can be safely installed in direct contact with combustible oors and walls. Although many prefabricated

replaces carry endorsements from nationally recognized organizations for use as replaces, they have not been

tested for connection to wood stove heaters. Connecting a stove to such a device will void the manufacturer’s

warranty. Venting a stove directly into a replace does not meet code and should not be attempted. The stove

warranty will be void with such an installation. Do not create a hazard in your home by connecting in this manner.

FIREPLACE INSTALLATION

NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ROUTE THE CHIMNEY CONNECTOR PIPE THROUGH THE THROAT OF THE FIREPLACE.

Directly connecting the stovepipe into the existing masonry chimney (gure 14 “Type A” Fireplace Conversion)

of the replace is the ONLY approved method of installation. This is a complicated and involved process and to

ensure safety should only by done by a qualied installer.

1. An entry hole must be cut through the masonry and tile liner with minimal damage to the liner. At least 8” of

liner must remain below the entry position. When locating the stove and stovepipe, all minimum clearances

must be observed from combustible surfaces including mantels, combustible trim work, ceilings, and walls.

Positioning the center of the stove pipe entry into the chimney 24” below the ceiling should insure proper

clearance for a 6” stovepipe.

2. Install a re clay (5/8” minimum thickness) thimble. Make sure the thimble is ush with the inner surface of the

chimney liner and does not protrude into the ue (see gure 10 on page 9).

3. Secure the thimble with refractory mortar. The thimble should be surrounded by 12” of solid unit masonry

brickwork or 24” of stone.

4. Install the stovepipe into the thimble as far as possible without extending past the ue lining (see gures 9 &

10 on pages 8 & 9).

5. A small airspace (about 1/2”) should remain between the stovepipe and thimble to allow for expansion of

the pipe. Seal this airspace with high temperature caulking or ceramic wool.

6. Secure and seal the damper in the closed position using high-temp caulking, ceramic wool, or furnace

cement. Also check to see if the chimney has a clean out. If it does, make sure it is closed and sealed as well.

A leaky clean out will greatly reduce draft efciency.

If you have any questions regarding venting your stove, contact the manufacturer or contact the National Fire

Protection Association (NFPA) and request a copy of the latest editions of NFPA Standard 211 and NFPA Standard

908. Their address is: Battery March Park, Quincy, MA 02269.

OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. Never over re this stove by building excessively hot res as a house/ building re may result. You are over

ring the stove if unit or stovepipe begins to glow or turn red.

2. Never build extremely large res in this type of stove as damage to the stove or smoke leakage may result

3. Do not build re too close to glass.

4. Unit is hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. Do

not touch the stove after ring until it has cooled.

5. Provide air into the room for proper combustion.

6. Inspect stovepipe every 60 days. Replace immediately if stovepipe is rusting or leaking smoke into the room.

7. Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specications can result in permanent

damage to the heater.

THIS STOVE IS DESIGNED TO BURN NATURAL WOOD FUEL ONLY!

Hardwood, 18”/46cm to 26”/66cm must be air dried (seasoned) for a minimum of 6 months. Logs greater than

6”/152mm in diameter should be split. Wood should be stored in a dry, well ventilated area. The humidity content

for usable rewood must be less than 20% of the weight of the log. This heater is designed to burn 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.

Attempts to use wet or unseasoned wood will cause:

- ignition problems

- rapid creosote build-up resulting in chimney re

- incomplete combustion

- low heat yield

- blackened glass

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. 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.

CAUTION: HOUSE FIRE HAZARDS

• Do not store wood on oor protector, underneath stovepipe or anywhere within minimum clearances from

combustible surfaces specied for this stove.

• Over ring may cause a house re. You are over ring if a unit or chimney connector glows red.

WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD

• Never use chemicals, gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter uid, or similar

ammable liquids to start or “freshen-up” a re in the stove.

• Keep all ammable liquids, especially gasoline, out of the vicinity of the stove whether in use or in storage.

Operating Instructions

-15-

NOTICE: Use solid wood materials only. Do not burn garbage or ammable uids such as gasoline, naphtha or

engine oil. Do not use coal. This stove is not designed to accommodate the air ow (draft) necessary to properly

burn coal or coal products. Do not elevate re or use grates or andirons. Build re directly on bottom of rebox.

OPTIMAL FUEL CONSUMPTION

This stove is designed to get the most efcient transfer of heat energy from the wood fuel and radiate it into

your living environment. The re box introduces combustion air through three sources. (1) Immediately beneath

the door opening below the window is a Lower Primary Air Orice (LPAO). (2) The door air inlet control brings air

into the rebox and controls the rate of burn (and the amount of heat the stove radiates). (3) The secondary

air tubes at the top of the rebox are designed to ignite the combustion gases (smoke) given off by the burning

wood and increases the efciency of the stove and reduces chimney emissions. Smoke given off by burning

fuel consists of very small organic liquid droplets. If these droplets condense, they form a sticky tar-like substance

called creosote. When operated properly, this stove is designed to burn these droplets. Burning these droplets

releases heat that would otherwise be lost up the chimney as smoke. Following the instructions below will help

you operate your stove properly to maximize the stove’s performance. Actual performance is dependent on

chimney height, weather, log size, wood species and moisture content. Some experimentation will initially be

required to nd that “sweet spot” where your stove performs best. The following will give you a starting point to

nd your optimum settings. When rst loading fuel set the door air inlet control at the wide open position for at

least 15–20 minutes. When the stove is working properly you should be able to observe secondary combustion

ames above the fuel pieces in front of the secondary air tubes at the top of the rebox. These secondary ames

should continue to burn after the primary air inlet is reset from wide open to the desired operating setting. If the

ames do not continue to burn, open the air control to re-establish the secondary ames then slowly reset the air

control to the desired setting. Initially it may take several attempts to gure your stove out. But once you nd the

operating “sweet spot” and the correct mix of procedures to get there, only minor adjustments will be necessary.

The best indicator of a properly operating stove is to look for smoke coming out of the chimney. You may see

steam emissions that will quickly dissipate. Smoke will thin but continue to drift without totally disappearing. If you

do detect smoke emissions, open the air control a little bit, let the stove adjust for 10–15 minutes and re-check

your chimney. Remember – visible smoke represents lost heat. NOTICE - INITIAL BURNS TO CURE PAINT Because

of the high operating temperatures, this stove uses a special high-temp paint which requires a series of burns to

cure the paint for durability and a lifetime of service. Proper curing of the high-temp paint requires a series of

three initial burns. The stove should be allowed to cool off between each burn. The rst two burns should be small

res and low temperatures (250°F) for a duration of 20 minutes each. The third re should be at a medium-high

temperature (500°F to 700°F) for twenty minutes. Provide adequate cross ventilation to clear any smoke or odor

caused by initial rings.

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.

EFFICIENCIES

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 wood stoves 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 wood stoves 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 wood stove

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.

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.

-16-

STARTING A FIRE

DO NOT LEAVE STOVE UNATTENDED WITH DOOR OPEN!

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. Add large pieces of wood as the re

progresses being careful not to overload. (Do not ll rebox beyond rebrick area.) An ideal coal bed of 1 –2”

should be established to achieve optimum performance. This unit is designed to function most effectively when

air is allowed to circulate to all areas of the rebox. TIP: If ash or coals remain in the stove, make sure to clear

them away from the Lower Primary Air Orice (LPAO) and rake a slight (1-to-2 inch wide) trough down the center

of the coal bed from front to back prior to loading the fuel. Once fuel has been loaded, close the door and

leave the air inlet control fully open until re is well established (at least 15–20 minutes) being careful not to over

re (if any of the exterior parts of the stove or chimney connections begin to glow you are over ring the stove).

Re-adjust the door air inlet control to desired burn rate. (If excessive smoke lls the rebox, open air inlet control

slightly until ames resume and wood is sufciently ignited.) The basic rule of thumb is “closed - low,” “half way

open - medium” and “fully open - high.”

NOTE: The four (4) inlet holes in the primary air inlet control slide are designed to remain partially open with slide

in the closed position.

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.

ADDING FUEL

If the coal bed is not hot and glowing, rake the coals to the front of the stove, close the door and adjust the air

inlet control to the wide open position. Let the coals reheat for 10–15 minutes. When hot and glowing, spread

them out and place your next fuel load into the stove (make sure no coals or ashes block the LPAO). Leave the

door air inlet control in the wide open position for 15–20 minutes. Fuel load size can vary but should be kept 1–2

inches below the secondary air tubes. Also position the fuel to leave space so the air from the inlet can work

down between the pieces of fuel. This reduces the time it takes for new fuel to burn properly.

When refueling, adjust air inlet control to the fully open position. When re brightens, slowly and carefully open

the door. This procedure will prevent gases from igniting causing smoke and ame spillage.

1. When adding fuel be careful not to hit, bump or damage the ceramic bafe board located at the top of

the rebox. Be careful not to overload or over re the stove.

2. When adding fuel be careful not to smother the re. Do not build res against glass and make sure the coal

bed does not obstruct the air inlet. Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that it creates a hazard

when opening the door.

3. Close the feed door and secure tightly.

4. Adjust the air inlet control as described above.

5. Empty ashes regularly. Do not allow ashes to pile up (see Safety Instructions #14 on page 2.)

6. Properly dispose of hot ashes (see Safety Instructions, item #14 on page 2.)

7. Do not over re the stove (over ring is when any part of the stove exterior or chimney connections glow).

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.

CAUTION:

DO NOT OVER FIRE APPLIANCE. YOU ARE OVER FIRING IF THE CHIMNEY CONNECTORS OR STOVE GLOWS RED.

CLOSE THE DOOR AND SHUT DAMPER IMMEDIATELY TO REDUCE THE AIR SUPPLY AND SLOW DOWN THE FIRE.

CAUTION:

Slow burning res and extended use may cause excessive creosote buildup. Ignition of creosote or over ring

may cause a chimney re. Chimney res burn extremely hot and may ignite surrounding materials. In case of

a chimney re call the re department immediately.

CAUTION:

A chimney re may cause ignition of wall studs or rafters which were assumed to be a safe distance from the

chimney. If a chimney re has occurred, have your chimney inspected by a qualied expert before using

again

Service Hints

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.

BLOWER OPERATION

If your stove is equipped with the blower attachment, follow these instructions for optimal operation. LOW (door

air control is fully closed to 1/4 open): Turn the fan on 30 minutes after fuel has been added and set the fan speed

at low.

MEDIUM (door air control 1/4 to 3/4 open): Wait 15 minutes after fuel has been added and set the fan speed

control at high. HIGH (door air control wide open): Wait 5 minutes after fuel has been added and set the fan

speed at high.

CREOSOTE – FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL

Failure to remove creosote may result in ignition and may cause a house/building re. Creosote may be removed

using a chimney brush or other commonly available materials from your local hardware retailer. Chimney res

burn very hot. If the unit or chimney connector should glow red, reduce the re by closing the inlet air control

and immediately call the re department. A re in the rebox may be smothered by pouring a large quantity of

coarse salt, baking soda, or cool ashes on top of the re.

PREVENTING CREOSOTE BUILDUP

1. Creosote will inevitably form in your chimney and connector pipe. Following these steps will help reduce the

rate of build up.

2. BURN ONLY SEASONED WOOD that has dried for at least one year.

3. Burn hardwood rather than softwood. Hardwood is denser or heavier wood and burns hotter.

4. Do not attempt to burn (or mix in) green or wet wood. The use of green or wet wood will cause a rapid build

up of creosote. Wood that hisses, sizzles and blackens without igniting in ve minutes must be considered too

wet to burn.

CAUTION: RISK OF FIRE 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 buildup has occurred.

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

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.

WARNING: IN CASE OF CHIMNEY FIRE

1. Close air inlet control

2. Get out of the house

3. Call the re department.

ATTENTION:

This wood heater needs periodic inspection and repair for proper operation. It is against federal regulations

to operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual.

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.

1. Do not attempt to extend the burn time by using wet wood. Not only does burning wet wood rapidly build

up creosote, but it reduces the heat output by up to 25 percent.

2. Burn the stove with the air inlet control wide open for 10-25 minutes every time fresh wood is loaded into

the stove. Do not load more than ¼ to ½ of the fuel capacity at one time. Loading too much wood at

once will cause excessive smoke which contains creosote. Mature res or coals produce very little creosote-

producing smoke.

3. Burn with the control open for several minutes at numerous intervals throughout the day, being careful not to

over re the unit. Following this process will help to warm the chimney and reduce the amount of creosote

forming condensation within the chimney.

4. Establish a routine for the handling of fuel, ring, and operating the stove. Check daily for creosote build up

until experience shows how often you need to clean for safe operation. Be aware that the hotter the re,

the less creosote is deposited and weekly cleaning may be necessary in mild weather even though monthly

cleaning may be enough in the colder months.

CHIMNEY DRAFT

The chimney is critical to the proper operation of the stove. It is the chimney that creates draft; THE STOVE DOES

NOT AND CANNOT CREATE DRAFT. The chimney provides two vital functions for proper stove operation. First, it is

the passage to exhaust smoke and hot gases created in the combustion process. Secondly, it supplies the draft (or

pressure) to bring oxygen to the re to sustain combustion. Draft is the natural movement of air or gases through a

chimney. Chimney draft comes from the natural tendency for hot (less dense) air to rise. As the hot air rises within

the chimney it creates a lower pressure at the bottom of the chimney to which the stove is connected. The higher

pressure air outside the stove then rushes into the stove where the lower air pressure level exists, thus bringing

oxygen to the re. This constant ow of air is referred to as the draft. Many factors or combination of factors can

act together to build or impede the draft. Without the correct amount of draft, the stove will not operate properly.

If there is excessive draft, an unsafe condition will arise with too much air being drawn into the stove and creating

an excessively hot re. This could cause over ring which runs the risk of igniting structural elements around the

stove and chimney. The most common experience is that of insufcient draft. Under insufcient draft conditions,

the re will be starved for oxygen, improper or incomplete combustion occurs resulting in smoke spillage into the

area around the stove. A re that is starved for oxygen will not burn well. Such a re will produce excessive smoke

that will cool and condense in the chimney creating creosote. Excessive amounts of creosote buildup can ignite

causing a chimney re with the possibility of structural elements igniting as well. Correct any draft related issues

before using the stove. The following are some possible causes of insufcient draft. Please note that one or more

factors may play a role in a draft issue and certain factors may change over time as conditions vary.

NOTE: a draft reading of 0.05 To 0.06 W.C.

(Water column) is required for proper burning

of this stove.

CAUTION:

Do not operate with cracked or broken

glass.

WARNING:

Replace glass only with 5mm high temperature ceramic glass of the proper size. Do not use substitute

materials such as tempered glass or double thickness window glass! Contact the stove manufacturer for

replacement glass.

1. Atmospheric Pressure and Air Supply - Atmospheric pressure that affects the draft may occur from outside

the structure, inside the structure, or both. High pressure weather (clear and cold) usually produces a better

chimney draft than low pressure (overcast and damp) conditions. Negative pressure can be created inside

a home by appliances that expel air from within such as bathroom vents, range hoods, clothes dryers, and

forced air furnaces. Do not allow such appliances to overcome the natural draft. Note that newer homes

tend to be built more tightly allowing less make up air to seep freely in. Negative pressure may be overcome

by opening a nearby door or window. In extreme conditions of negative draft, the airow in the chimney will

reverse direction. This is known as “down drafting.”

2. Environmental Factors - Wind or air deecting off external objects such as the roof, neighboring structures,

trees, or hills. These can cause a pressure change in the air surrounding the chimney.

3. Chimney Temperature - The temperature of the chimney is an important factor in how well it drafts. Warm

chimneys draft better than cold chimneys. This is based upon the principle that hot air rises while cold air

sinks. Hot gases going up a cold chimney will cool rapidly. Warm the chimney by allowing a hot re to burn

for the rst fteen to thirty minutes after starting the re. Be careful not to over re the stove. If any part of the

stove or chimney starts to glow, you are over ring the stove. Masonry chimneys will take longer to warm than

manufactured chimneys on account of their greater structural mass. Chimneys that have a ue diameter

larger than the stove outlet take more heat to warm, thus resulting in a faster cooling of the hot gases

needed to build or maintain draft.

4. Chimney Installation and Maintenance - Conrm that all four minimum chimney height requirements listed

in the Chimney Connections section of the manual have been met. The physics that link chimney height

with draft creation are vital to the proper operation of the stove. Failure to meet each of these minimum

requirements will have an adverse affect on draft. Avoid long horizontal runs or multiple elbows. Use stove

cement to seal joints in the connector pipe section. Regularly clean the chimney, connector pipe, rain cap,

and spark arrestor screen. Creosote build up can reduce the chimney draw and possibly create a chimney

re.

5. Temporarily out of Operation - After the re has burned out, open the air control to its fully open position. This

will allow warm room air to enter the chimney and keep it as warm as possible until the stove is used again.

For assistance involving chimney draft issues, contact a knowledgeable licensed heating and cooling contractor

in your area. For questions regarding manufactured chimney, contact the manufacturer of the chimney.

GLASS CARE

Periodic cleaning of glass will be necessary to prevent accumulations of ash. Acidic ash buildup can eventually

etch and weaken glass. Creosote accumulations should burn off during hot res. The following usage and safety

tips should be observed:

1. Inspect the glass regularly for cracks and breaks. If you detect a crack or break, extinguish the re immediately

and contact the manufacturer for a replacement before re-ring the stove.

2. Do not slam the door or otherwise impact the glass. When closing doors, make sure that logs or other objects

do not protrude to impact the glass.

3. Do not build res against (or that might fall against) the glass.

4. Do not clean the glass with materials that may scratch (or otherwise damage) the glass. Scratches on the

glass can develop into cracks or breaks during operation.

5. Never attempt to clean the glass while the unit is hot; allow to dry thoroughly before reuse. If deposits are not

very heavy, normal glass cleaners are adequate using a soft, non-abrasive cleaning pad.

6. Never put substances which can ignite explosively in the unit. Even small explosions in conned areas can

blow out the glass.

GLASS REPLACEMENT

Gasket and glass cleaning products are available at local retail home centers. Manufacturers of cleaning

products include, A.W. Perkins Co. (www.Awperkins.com) or Rutland products (www.Rutland.com). After

extensive use, the gasket material which provides glass and door seal may lose it’s resiliency and will need to be

replaced. Inspect glass and door gaskets periodically to ensure proper seal; if gaskets become frayed or worn,

replace immediately. This unit’s door uses a 1 1/8” diameter rope gasket.

GLASS REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE

1. Ensure appliance is not in operation and is thoroughly cooled.

2. Remove screw and glass clips. (See parts list and diagram.)

3. Remove glass from door frame.

4. If glass is broken, carefully remove and discard each broken piece to avoid cuts. Discard window gasket.

Replace window and gasket with original factory replacement parts.

5. Replace new gasket starting at the bottom of glass working along edges, being sure to center gasket

channel on glass.

6. Trim to length and butt ends together.

7. Perform replacement procedure in reverse order after replacing glass and gasket.

8. When replacing glass into door, be sure not to overtighten screws and clips.
