INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of a

Tucson Gas-Fired Direct-Vent heater. The

Tucson, by HearthStone, incorporates the

latest in balanced vent gas technology,

which will provide you with clean, efficient

heat for years to come. The combination of

natural stones and cast iron gives the Tucson

a pleasing look that can be maintained with

minimum care.

The Tucson will provide you with years of

practical and convenient service. However,

as with any gas appliance, the unit must be

properly and safely installed and maintained

by qualified service personnel to ensure safe

and trouble-free operation.

Your Tucson is equipped with a standard

pilot which:

1. generates a milli-volt signal that

powers the wall-mounted thermostat

and;

2. lights the main burner when the

thermostat calls for heat.

This unit is equipped with an On/Off/T’stat

switch and a variable output control. The

variable output control is located on the gas

control valve. It allows you to vary the heat

output, along with the flame height to suit

personal taste. Heat output can be reduced

{set to “LOW”} during the Fall and Spring,

when the need for heat is reduced and

increased {set to “HIGH” during Winter

months, when the need for heat is the

greatest.

A wall-mounted thermostat is provided by

HearthStone. Regardless of how you set the

variable output control, when the optional

thermostat has been installed and the

On/Off/T’stat switch is set to “T’stat”, the

wall-mounted thermostat will control the

on/off cycling of the unit. At any time, you

can override the thermostat with the

On/Off/T’stat switch by setting it to “ON”

or “OFF”.

The Unit can also be equipped with an

optional blower fan, Kit which turns on and

off independently of the burner flames.

When the switch, which allows you to turn

the fan on or off and control the speed of the

fan to suit your needs, is set to “High” or

“Lo”, the fan will automatically turn on

when the stove is hot and cycle off when the

unit is no longer hot.

Also available are two different optional

remote controls. Both of the remote controls

are capable of turning the unit on and off.

One of the optional remotes also allows you

to control the temperature of the stove from

anywhere in the vicinity of the unit. If “ON”

& “OFF” are the only controls required, Kit

# 90-56912 can be used. If you would like to

control the temperature via the remote

control, use Kit # 90-56914.

OWNER’S INFORMATION

The installation must conform with local

codes or, in the absences of local codes, the

current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1

(NFPA 54) or CAN/CGA B149 Installation

Code. (Installer l’appareil selon les codes ou

règlements locaux, ou, en l’absence de tels

règlements, selon les Codes d’installation

CAN/CGA-B149.)Do not use this appliance

if any part has been under water.

Immediately call a qualified service

technician to inspect the heater and to

replace any part of the control system and

gas control that has been under water. (Ne

pas se servir de cet appareil s’il a été plongé

dans l’eau, complètement ou en partie.

Appeler un technicien qualifié pour inspector

l’appareil et remplacer toute partie du système

de contrôle et toute commande qui ont été

plongés dans l’lau.)

DAILY OPERATION

The Tucson gas-fired heater is easily

operated by the homeowner once installed

and adjusted by qualified service personnel.

The unit is controlled via the wall-mounted

thermostat during the heating season. Set the

thermostat to the desired room temperature

and the unit will cycle on and off as

required. By adjusting the variable output

control located on the gas control valve, the

rate of heat output can be varied to meet the

heating requirements of the season.

Choosing a low flame setting will result in

longer burn cycles at a reduced output, while

choosing a high flame setting will result in a

shorter, hotter burn cycle. Through trial and

error, the homeowner can select the

optimum flame size for their setting and

application.

During the summer non-heating season,

switch the wall thermostat to “OFF”, and

turn off the pilot. This will improve the

overall efficiency of the unit as the heat

from the pilot is wasted. When putting the

unit back into service, follow the lighting

instructions described on page 31.

When the unit is first lit, especially when

cool, it is normal to experience some

condensation on the inside of the window

glass. This condensation will burn off within

the first few minutes of operation. If

continuous condensation on the window

glass or dripping water from any part of the

unit or venting system (chimney) is noted,

immediately discontinue operation of the

unit and contact qualified service personnel.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

AND CARE

The Tucson requires minimal routine

maintenance and care. The unit should

always be cool and off when being cleaned.

CLEANING

› WARNING: Do not clean the unit

when hot. The unit should receive

regular cleaning on, under, and around

the stove to prevent the buildup of dust

and lint. The exterior surfaces of the unit

can be cleaned using soap, water, and a

soft cloth. Do not use abrasive or

chemical cleaners and take care not to

scratch the glass or enamel finish (if so

equipped) when cleaning the unit. The

use of chemical wax based cleaners or

polishes are not recommended due to the

potential for discoloration or the enamel

when the residue of the cleaners or

polishes is exposed to heat.

HearthStone Quality Home Heating Products Inc Tucson Model #8700

FIREBOX, PILOT, & BURNER

TUBES

The firebox should receive periodic cleaning

to prevent the accumulation of dust, lint, and

other debris. To clean the firebox, set the

thermostat to the “OFF” position, and turn

off the gas at the gas control valve. When

the unit is cool, unfasten the front door and

carefully remove the decorative ceramic

fiber log set, taking care not to damage the

logs or chip the enamel cast iron. Clean the

firebox burner tube and carefully vacuum

the entire surface of the log set. Thoroughly

vacuum the ports (holes) along the top of the

burner tubes.

With the decorative ceramic fiber logs out of

the firebox, fasten the door shut and

momentarily light the unit according to the

lighting instructions described on page 31.

Check to insure a flame is burning from

each burner port. The pilot flame should be

large enough to engulf the

sensor/thermocouple as shown in Figure 2.

Turn the unit off by setting the thermostat to

“OFF” and turning off the gas control valve.

Allow the unit to cool. Check and clean any

burner ports that are not burning or not

burning properly. Clean burner ports using

soft a soft brush or vacuum cleaner. If the

pilot flame height needs adjustment, it

should be adjusted by qualified service

personnel as described on page 34.

Figure 2: Pilot Flame Pattern

Complete the cleaning procedure by

carefully placing the log set within the

firebox as described on page 28. Close and

fasten the front door. Turn on the gas, light

the unit and check for proper operation.

Flame patterns should look like Figure 3.

Regularly check to insure the area around

the Tucson is kept free from combustible

materials, gasoline, and other flammable

vapors and liquids. Check that the flow of

combustion and ventilation air is not

obstructed. Once a year the unit and venting

system should be inspected by qualified

service personnel to insure that they are

clean, free of obstruction, safe, and in good

working order. If service or maintenance is

required, it should be performed by qualified

service personnel.

HearthStone Quality Home Heating Products Inc Tucson Model #8700

Figure 3: Burner Flame Pattern

REPLACE THE FRONT DOOR

GASKET AS NEEDED

Your Tucson uses a 3/8” rope-type

fiberglass gasket to make a tight seal

between the door frame and the firebox. In

time, the gasket can become brittle and

compressed and should be replaced. New

gasket material is available from your

Authorized HearthStone Dealer.

1. Allow the Tucson to cool completely.

Remove the existing gasket by grasping

one end and pulling firmly.

2. Use a wire brush or the tip of a

screwdriver to clean the channel of

remaining gasket.

3. Determine the correct length of the

appropriate-sized gasket by laying it out

in the channel. Allow an extra 1 to 2”

(25-50mm), and mark the spot to be cut.

4. Cut the gasket at the marked spot with a

utility knife. Twist the ends slightly to

prevent the gasket from unraveling.

5. Apply water glass adhesive to the gasket

channel.

6. Starting at one end, press the gasket into

the channel. Insure a good joint where

the gasket ends meet before trimming

any excess. Do not overlap the gasket

ends or leave ends with ragged edges.

7. Firmly and evenly press the gasket to

seat it in its channel.

CLASS CLEANING

If operating with propane, it may be

necessary to clean the inside of the glass

occasionally. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

Do not clean the glass when hot. Allow

glass to cool and apply a window cleaning

fluid.

› WARNING: Do not operate this

appliance with the glass panel removed,

cracked, or broken. Do not subject the

door to abuse, such as striking or

slamming shut. Replacement of the glass

panel should be done by a licensed or

qualified service person.

UNPACKING AND INSPECTION

UNPACK AND INSPECT FOR DAMAGE

The Tucson is packaged by the manufacturer

to withstand shipment without damage.

However, damage can occur during transit

so take care to inspect for damage when

unpacking and installing the unit. If any

damage or missing parts are detected,

immediately contact your dealer. Do not

install or put into service a damaged or

incomplete heater.

Caution: The two top stones and grill are

NOT cemented or otherwise permanently

fastened in place! Carefully remove and set

aside the two stones and the grill. Use the

protective wrapping material to temporarily

protect the stones from chipping and damage

while the unit is inspected and installed.

Inspect the Tucson for visible or concealed

damage. The unit should appear to be square

and true. The stones should be whole and

without cracks, chips, or breakage. The

sheet metal parts should be smooth and free

of bends and dents. The enameled cast iron

should be free of chips or cracks. If visible

or concealed damage is found or suspected,

contact your dealer for instructions.

With the top stones and grill removed and

set aside, undo the lag bolts that fasten the

unit to the pallet. Take care not to mar or

chip the enameled legs. Lift the stove off the

pallet and set it into place.

The decorative ceramic fiber logs supplied

with the Tucson are contained within the

firebox. Always use great care when

handling the decorative ceramic fire logs as

they are fragile and subject to damage and

breakage if handled roughly. Open the

firebox door using a 1/8” allen wrench

screwdriver and inspect the logs for damage.

If a broken log is encountered, contact your

dealer for replacement logs. Otherwise, set

the logs aside until called for during the

installation.

HEARTH REQUIREMENT/FLOOR

PROTECTION

The Tucson may be placed on a non-

combustible surface or wood floor. For

placement of the Tucson on carpeting, vinyl

tile or other combustible materials, the

appliance shall be installed on a metal or

wood panel extending the full width and

depth of the appliance. Installations must

meet local codes.

HearthStone Quality Home Heating Products Inc Tucson Model #8700

15

CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES

Due to high surface temperatures, the unit

should be located out of traffic and away

from furniture and draperies. Clothing and

other flammable material should not be

placed on or near the heater. When

positioning the unit always maintain

adequate clearances around air openings into

the combustion chamber and allow for

adequate ventilation. Minimum clearances

to combustibles must be maintained as

shown in the illustrations on page 14 +15.

Note: The rear clearance to combustibles

will be determined by either the unit’s or the

vent pipe’s minimum clearance, depending

on whether the installation calls for vertical

rise within the room or a rear exit, through-

the-wall vent pipe.

Be sure to consider the need for access to

the gas control valve access door on the

front of the unit as well as full access for

periodic cleaning and servicing. Also

consider the location of the Optional Blower

Fan.

NOTE: These clearances represent minimum

distances in all cases, which, through testing in an

independent laboratory to ANSI and CSA

standards, will prevent fire or spontaneous

combustion. We do not control the combustible

materials exposed to heat by this product;

therefore, an assessment must be made by the

installer to prevent consequential damage of walls

and flooring.

RESTRICTION PLATE

The restriction plate is used to control the

draft of the heater. Controlling the draft also

changes the aesthetics of the flame. The

restriction plate has eight settings, one (1)

being the lowest and eight (8) being the

highest. For a fast moving flame with lots of

action, use a low setting. For a slow, lazy

flame, a high setting should be used. See

Figure 11 for instructions on how to adjust

the restriction plate settings.

RESTRICTION PLATE POSITION

A vent restriction plate is available for the

appliance to adjust the flow rate of exhaust

gases. This insures proper flames for the

wide variety of vent configurations and

efficiency. The restriction plate consists of a

rotating shutter below the starter section of

pipe and an adjustment plate with index

holes used to hold the shutter in a fixed

position. Depending on the vent

configuration, you may be required to adjust

the restriction plate position. Refer to pages

21 – 22 for positioning of the restriction

plate.

ADJUSTMENT TO RESTRICTION

PLATE

Remove the log set before adjusting

restriction plate by following the log set

removal on page 29. Make sure the unit is

cool before touching any part of the firebox

and log set. Remove the exhaust baffle by

removing the one screw in the center of the

baffle (refer to Figure 10). The baffle will

fall out once the screw is removed. Be

careful not to drop the baffle on the burner

tube or burner tube holder. Once the baffle

is set aside, check the restriction plate screw

location. There are eight locations that the

restriction plate can be positioned. (refer to

Venting Configuration – Figures 14 – 16 for

recommended restriction plate positions)

(refer to Figure 11 for proper adjustment

plate index location) ‘A’ in Figure 11 shows

the locating screw that determines the

position of the plate.

NOTE: These positions are based on lab

results and can have some variance.

Remove the screw and position the

restriction plate in the desired location.

Fasten the screw into the proper hole and

tighten. Reinstall the exhaust baffle by

setting the back edge of the baffle into the

baffle clip attached to the back wall of the

firebox. Then push the baffle against the

heat exchanger and reinstall the fasten bolt.

Reinstall the log set and ember strip as

described in the log set installation

procedure on page 28.
