IMPORTANT SAFETY AND WARNING
INFORMATION
READ THIS MANUAL IN ITS ENTIRETY AND UNDER-
STAND THESE RULES TO FOLLOW FOR SAFETY.
1. When this room heater is not properly installed, a house fire
may result. To reduce the risk of fire, follow the installation
instructions. Contact local building or fire officials about
restrictions and installation inspection requirements in
your area.
2. Wear gloves during installation to avoid injury from sharp
edges on the stove and/or its parts.
3. This unit is designed and engineered to burn only dry, well-
seasoned wood. Burning wet wood will greatly reduce the
stove’s efficiency, produce excessive amounts of smoke
and can cause dangerous chimney fires due to creosote
build-up.
4. Before opening the door, the draft control must be fully open
to avoid possible combustion flash (ignition of hot volatile
gases as the door is opened).
5. Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene,
charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or ’freshenup’
a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from
the heater while it is in use. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR
FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE.
6. While burning, fuel utilizes oxygen from the air in the room.
Be sure to allow an adequate amount of fresh air into the
room where the stove is burning.
7. The outside surface of the stove will be hot while burning
properly and can set items like clothing and curtains on
fire. Keep furnishings and other combustible materials
away from the stove. Using the heat from the stove to dry
wet clothing can be hazardous if clothes are placed too
near the surface of the stove.
8. HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING
FURNISHINGS AND COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL A
CONSIDERABLE DISTANCE AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE
SKIN BURNS. Do not allow children to play near the stove
without close supervision. Do not touch the stove while it
is burning. Use extreme caution while the unit is in use.
Surface temperatures become dangerously hot and can
cause serious burns.
9. Do not allow anyone to operate the stove who is not familiar
with the operating instructions.
10. Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed stove
design specifications can result in permanent damage to
the stove. Never leave your stove unattended on high burn
rates. This may cause overfiring. Overfiring the stove may
cause a house fire. If the stove glows, you are overfiring.
11. Keep a water hose or hand-operated fire extinguisher close
for safety.
12. Smoke Detectors - Since there are always several potential
sources of fire in any home, we recommend installing
smoke detectors. If possible, install the smoke detector in
a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility
of occasional false activation from the heat produced by
the stove). If your local code requires a smoke detector
be installed within the same room, you must follow the
requirements of your local code. Check with your local
building department for requirements in your area.
13. Inspect your chimney at least once a month during the burning
season to check for soot and creosote accumulations.
Any accumulations over 1/8” thick should be removed
by a professional chimney sweep. Do not attempt to
burn out heavy creosote accumulations with a hot fire. If
large accumulations are occurring, review your burning
procedures.
14. If a creosote fire should develop, the fire department should
be called immediately and then attempts should be made
to control the fire until assistance arrives. If a “runaway”
fire should develop causing over-heating of the stove, the
door and draft regulators should be closed immediately.
The fire should die down once deprived of oxygen. After a
severe chimney fire, the complete chimney system should
be checked before further use.
15. Do Not Use Grate Or Elevate Fire - Build Wood Fire Directly
On Hearth (firebrick). Do not use andirons or other methods
of supporting the fuel.
16. Please read this entire manual before you install and use
your new room heater. Failure to follow instructions may
result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.
17. Check all local building and safety codes before
installation. The installation instructions and appropriate
code requirements must be followed exactly and without
compromise. In the absence of local codes the following
standards and codes must be followed.
18. In the U.S.A, install in accordance with the National Fire
Protection Association’s Code, NFPA 211, Standards for
Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid-Fuel-Burning
Appliances, or similar regulations, may apply to the
installation of a Solid-Fuel-Burning appliance in your
area. In Canada, the guideline is established by the CSA
Standard, CAN/CSA-B365-M93, Installation Code for Solid-
Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment.
19. DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANY
AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCTWORK UNLESS SPECIFICALLY
APPROVED FOR SUCH INSTALLATIONS.
20. WARNING: BURNING IMPROPER FUEL (I.E. CHARCOAL)
CAN RESULT IN CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING, WHICH
MAY LEAD TO DEATH!
21. Carbon Monoxide Poisoning – Early signs of carbon
monoxide poisoning resemble the flu with headaches,
dizziness, or nausea. If you have these signs, get fresh air
at once! Have the heater inspected by a qualified service
technician. Some people are more affected by carbon
monoxide than others. These include pregnant women,
people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under
the influence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
22. Failure to use manufacturer provided parts, variations in
techniques and construction materials or practices other
than those described in this manual may create a fire hazard
and void the limited warranty.
23. Do not make any make-shift compromises during
installation. Any modification or alteration may result
in damage to the appliance or dwelling and will void the
warranty, certification and listings of this unit.
24. These appliances are designed as supplemental heaters.
Therefore, it is advisable to have an alternate heat source
when installed in a dwelling.

DRAFT REQUIREMENTS
This appliance is dependent upon a properly functioning chimney for
optimum performance. It is a high efficiency appliance that loses much
less heat up the chimney than older appliances and fireplaces. For this
reason it is important to match the stove to the chimney. The chimney
has two functions:
1. It draws combustion air into the appliance (without air, no fuel will
burn) and
2. It exhausts combustion by-products. Your new appliance is what is
known as a “natural draft” appliance.
The appliance depends solely on the natural draft of the chimney system
to draw combustion air into the unit. Draft is the force that moves air
from the appliance up into 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 (overfiring). Slow or inadequate draft
equals poor combustion and possible smoking problems.
The following are some conditions that may contribute to poor chimney
draft:
1. A chimney too large for your appliance.
2. A chimney with not enough height to produce adequate draft.
3. A chimney with excessive height (this may allow exhaust to cool too
much before exiting, which will stall the rate the exhaust exits).
4. Offsets in the venting system are too restrictive (see Chimney
Guidelines).
Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room
through the stove and the chimney connector joints.
Excessive draft may cause an uncontrollable burn or a glowing red stove
or chimney part.
Overfiring Damage - If the heater or chimney connector glows, you are
overfiring. Other symptoms may include: Cracking, warping or burning
out of components, stove glass may develop a haze, which will not come
off with cleaning.
Overfiring of a stove is a condition where excessive temperatures are
reached, beyond the design capabilities of the appliance. The damage
that occurs from overfiring is not covered under the manufacturer’s
limited warranty.
Also see Troubleshooting on Page 22.
SELECTING THE PROPER VENTING SYSTEM
The appliance is merely one component of a larger system. The other
equally important component is the venting system. This is necessary for
achieving the required flow of combustion air to the fire chamber and for
safely removing unwanted combustion by-products from the appliance.
If the venting system’s design does not promote these ends, the system
may not function properly. Poorly functioning venting systems may create
performance problems as well as be a safety hazard. A draft test should
read greater than .04’ W.C. (inches water column) and less than .08”
W.C. As per NFPA-211 standard (see paragraph below), the installer
must take into account all variables within the installation and install the
appliance in such a manner that satisfies the draft requirements of the
appliance. See Chimney Guidelines below to assist you in selecting the
proper venting system for your installation.
American National Standards Institute ANSI/NFPA 211, Standard for
Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances - See
Draft Section: A chimney or vent shall be so designed and constructed
to develop a flow sufficient to completely remove all flue and vent
gases to the outside atmosphere. The venting system shall satisfy the
draft requirements of the connected appliance in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Chimney Guidelines:
• This appliance requires approximately 12 feet minimum of “effective
draw” provided by the venting system. As a rule of thumb, every 90
degree total direction change in the venting will result in a loss of
approximately 5 feet of “effective draw.” Example: If two 45 degree
offsets are used, subtract 5 feet from the actual vertical vent height
to determine your “effective draw.” In this case if you had 14 feet of
vertical vent, the effective draw would only be approximately 9 feet
(14 ft. - 5 ft. = 9 ft.), therefore it may be necessary to add additional
height to the venting system.
• Do not install an offset within the first two feet above the flue outlet
on the appliance.
• In well insulated and weather tight homes, it may be difficult to establish
a good draft up your chimney. The poor draft is caused by a shortage
of air in the house. In this situation an Outside Air Kit may need to
be installed (See Negative Pressure Warning on Page 5 and Outside
Combustion Air on Page 12).
WARNING
This product can expose you to chemicals including
Carbon Black, which is known to the State of
California to cause cancer, and Carbon Monoxide,
which is known to the State of California to cause
birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more
information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
25. Do Not Overfire – If Heater or Chimney Connector Glows,
You Are Overfiring.
26. DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE
SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
27. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH
AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL.
28. 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.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.
NEGATIVE PRESSURE WARNING
This appliance is not designed to be operated in a negative pressure.
In very airtight homes with large kitchen exhaust fans, furnace cold air
returns, fresh air exchange systems and any other air system in close
proximity to the heating appliance may create a negative pressure in the
same room as the heating appliance. This can create dangerous back
drafting of the stove and chimney joints, drawing combustion by-products
into the home. Be sure your home has adequate makeup air to eliminate
negative pressures caused by the above-mentioned sources. Outside
air connected to the appliance probably will not resolve such a problem
as the appliance is not the source of negative pressure. IHP accepts no
liability for damages resulting from negative pressures described here.
Ventilation Requirements - Provide adequate air for combustion. The
fresh air requirements of this appliance must be met within the space
where it will be installed. Ventilation is essential when using a Solid-Fuel-
Burning heater. In well insulated and weather tight homes, it may be
difficult to establish a good draft up the chimney (caused by a shortage
of air in the home). The lack of air is caused by many common household
appliances which exhaust air from the home (such as a furnace, heat
pump, air conditioner, clothes dryer, exhaust fans, fireplaces, and other
fuel burning appliances). Also, the combustion process of this heater
uses oxygen from inside the dwelling. If the available fresh air delivery
in the dwelling is insufficient to support the demands of these appliances,
problems can result (i.e. excessive negative pressure can develop in the
dwelling which will affect the rate at which this appliance can draft thus
resulting in performance problems. To correct this problem it may help
to open a window (preferably on the windward side of the house) or
install an optional outside air kit.

CHIMNEY INSTALLATION
• Install chimney as per manufacturer’s instructions. Some brands of
pipe may require removal of the spacer ring in the flue collar.
• All horizontal runs of pipe should be as short as possible and are
required by NFPA No. 211 to have an upward pitch or rise in the same
direction the smoke travels of no less than 1/4” to the linear foot. The
connector pipe must meet minimum clearances in any direction to
walls or other combustible materials. It must attach to a listed double
wall metal chimney at least 6” in diameter or to a masonry chimney
with a flue passage of at least 48 square inches.
• It is required that a chimney connector pipe not extend further than
the inner wall of the flue when it is connected to a masonry chimney
and that it either be cemented to the masonry or be installed without
cement in a thimble connected to the masonry wall. When the
connector is inserted into a thimble, the joint must be tight enough
so that it will not be dislodged in normal use.
• Chimney connector pipes should never pass through a floor, ceiling,
fire wall, partition, or combustible construction of any type unless
certain precautions are taken. The best method is to use a listed
thimble and a listed chimney in accordance with the manufacturer’s
directions. NFPA No. 211 gives approved methods for passing a flue
pipe through combustible constructions (see Page 11).

PAINT CURING
Do not close the door tightly during the “Burn-In Period.” Also, open
the door frequently (every 5-10 minutes) to keep the gasket from
adhering to the curing paint. Ventilate the house well during these first
firings as the paint gives off carbon dioxide and unpleasant odors. It is
recommended that persons sensitive to an imbalance in the indoor air
quality avoid the appliance during the curing process.
Your new appliance is painted with a high temperature paint that cures
during the first few firings. We recommend that you put your stove or
fireplace insert through a regimen of three burns. The first two should
last for 20 minutes each at 250 degrees (the appliance should be allowed
to cool completely between each burn). The third should be a burn of
at least 450 degrees F. for 45-60 minutes. The paint will become soft,
gummy and emit non-toxic smoke during these burns. After the appliance
cools down for the third time, the paint will harden.
DO NOT BUILD A
LARGE ROARING FIRE UNTIL THIS CURING EFFECT IS COMPLETE
OR YOU MAY DAMAGE THE FINISH OF YOUR STOVE. Spray can
touch-ups should be done only with a high temperature stove paint (cat.
no. H8159), available from all IHP dealers.
OPERATING HINTS
1. Burn only dry, well-seasoned cord wood. In some states it is illegal
to burn wet wood or anything other than clean, dry wood products.
2. Your stove or fireplace insert is designed to operate with the door
closed! Operate only with the door shut tightly at all times except
when loading wood and possibly on start up to establish a draft.
Never leave the unit unattended while the front door is opened.
3. DO NOT contact or move the baffle boards while loading wood. Oc-
casionally check the baffle to assure that the boards are in there correct
location.
4.
CAUTION: THE DRAFT CONTROL MUST BE FULLY OPEN BE-
FORE OPENING THE DOOR TO AVOID POSSIBLE COMBUSTION
FLASH!! (Ignition of hot volatile gases as the door is opened).
5. Feeding excessive amounts of fuel to the appliance should be avoided.
It is important to supply it with sufficient draft and fuel to maintain
a moderately hot fire. If, during overnight burns, heavy creosote
deposits develop inside your stove and on the door, the draft is set
too low - review your burning habits!

DOOR OPERATION
Do not operate the appliance with the door open or ajar other
than possibly during start up to create a draft (Do not leave the
unit unattended while the front door is slightly open during start
up). Operating the appliance with the door open other than in
initial start up if needed will produce extreme temperatures
within the appliance. Damage caused from over-firing is not
covered under the manufacturers limited warranty.
Figure 18
WARNING
Be careful not to abuse door assembly by striking or
slamming it. If the door assembly or glass is broken or
damaged, they must be replaced with factory original
parts before heater can be safely operated. Use only
components provided by the manufacturer as replace-
ment parts.

Operate only with fuel door closed. Maintain all seals in good
condition. Do not operate with broken glass.
STARTING AND MAINTAINING A FIRE
1. NEVER USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS TO START OR REKINDLE
A SOLID FUEL FIRE!!
2. Fully open the primary draft control by placing draft control (wood
handle located on left side of the stove) in the highest position. This
control determines the amount of air entering the stove. Lowering
this control reduces the burn rate of the stove.
3. Place a small amount of crumpled paper in the front of the firebox
and cover it with a few pieces of kindling.
4. Light the paper and allow sufficient time for the kindling to become
fully engulfed in flames. You will now close the wood units front door.
Your wood units front door may or may not need to be left slightly
open during this start up process, this depends on the stove model
and the amount of draft present.
5. When operating any wood burning appliance, it is important to
become familiar with how the damper control affects heat output
and the overall temperature of the appliance. A stove thermom-
eter can be a helpful tool to help ensure you are not over-firing
your appliance and it will also ensure you are burning fuel at a
rate that is most efficient. Place a stove thermometer on the top
of the appliance as shown in Figure 19. Monitor the temperature
every 15 minutes or so until you become more familiar with your
appliance. Close the damper all the way down if you begin to
reach 600 degrees, as this is a sign that you are operating your
appliance at too high a temperature.
SEE MAINTENANCE SECTION FOR GLASS CLEANING GUIDELINES AND
TIPS FOR KEEPING THE GLASS CLEAN (PAGE 22).

Figure 21
6. Once kindling is burning well, larger pieces of wood may be added,
then the door should be fully closed if there was the need to keep it
slightly open during start up.
7. For best results, use smaller pieces of wood to get the appliance
temperature very high before loading larger wood for sustained
burns. If necessary, crack the door to allow ignition of the fuel charge.
Now you can add larger pieces of wood and after several minutes of
high burn, set the left control for the desired heat output. Check the
exhaust in about 15 to 20 minutes (see Figure 22). Large amounts
of smoke indicate an improper burn setting (either too high or too
low). Adjust and recheck in 5 to 10 minutes.

FUEL
This appliance is designed to burn dry seasoned natural wood only (see
Page 20 for a list of prohibited fuels). Failure to burn proper fuels only
will void the certification and the warranty of the appliance.
Dry, seasoned wood is that which has been cut, split and allowed to dry
under a covered area where air is free to flow and circulate under and
around the wood (not under a tarp or plastic). Make sure wood is not
stacked directly on the ground, it may absorb moisture from the ground.
It should be allowed to dry in these conditions for a minimum of six
months, preferably one year or more.
IT MUST BE UNDERSTOOD
THAT WOOD CANNOT BE LEFT IN ANY KIND OF WET OR DAMP
AREA OR IT WILL NEVER BECOME COMPLETELY SEASONED.
Do not store fuel within space heater installation clearances or within
the space required for refueling and ash removal.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER
Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specifica-
tions can result in permanent damage to the heater.

What does “Well-Seasoned” mean?
When a tree is cut down, the wood is green, full of sap and moisture.
This moisture content can exceed 80%, which must be reduced to less
than 20%. Wood properly seasoned is then capable of generating the
heat the stove was designed to provide.
Green wood does not burn easily. Attempting to burn green wood often
results in a lot of smoke and very little fire. Time is the most important
factor in seasoning wood. Ideally the moisture content should be reduced
to 11-20%. NOTE: The use of a firewood moisture meter is recommended
to ensure the firewood contains less than 20% moisture.
Seasoning Guide
Softwoods – 6 months to 18 months
Hardwoods – 12 months to 24 months
Logs that are 5” diameter across or larger should be split in half, three
pieces if over 8 inches, and four pieces when over a foot across. If a tree
has been dead for 2 – 4 years it still needs to be cut, split, and seasoned
for 6 to 24 months depending on the wood.

ACHIEVING CLEAN, LONG BURNS
To achieve long burn times, after having thoroughly preheated the
stove, load the firebox without blocking the small air opening found
in the center front of the firebox. At this point, you may need to burn
the stove with the draft open for a few minutes to ignite the wood. All
IHP stoves are EPA tested for emissions at low burn with the air control
completely closed. Whether or not you should burn your stove with the
air control completely closed will depend on the following factors:
• How you load your wood
• Your chimney type, height and draft
• Your wood type and its moisture content
• The temperature of the appliance
• Which model stove or insert you have
In order to maximize the burn time of your stove you may need to experi-
ment to get the right balance of starting temperature, wood type, and
draft control setting for your particular venting configuration. Do not
reload the stove for long burns when the stainless secondary tubes or
baffles are glowing red, or when the stove is uncomfortably hot to load.
This indicates the stove is too hot to load for a long burn.
GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR STOVE
Recent developments in wood-burning technology have made wood-
burning a cleaner and more convenient way to heat your home. Overall
efficiency in a wood-burning appliance is a combination of combustion
efficiency and heat transfer efficiency. Whether heating your entire home or
just a room or two, your understanding of how to best operate your stove
or insert will enhance its overall efficiency and performance. What this
can mean to you is longer, cleaner burns, less wood use and more heat.
The following sections will outline techniques you can use to “get the
most out of your stove.” Please read them carefully.
MAXIMIZING YOUR STOVE’S OVERALL
EFFICIENCY
It is important to know that for clean highly efficient burns you will
need to have sufficient temperatures inside the firebox for thorough
combustion. The best method for determining if you have sufficient
temperatures is to watch the brick lining in your firebox. When you first
light your stove or fireplace insert, the firebrick will turn a dark brown or
black. After 20 to 30 minutes of a hot fire, most of the bricks should return
to near their original beige color. This means the firebrick have reached
a high enough temperature for your stove to achieve high combustion
efficiency and you are ready to adjust the draft control to a lower setting.
Second and just as important, is achieving a high level of heat transfer
efficiency. Slowing the rate of flow through the stove or insert enhances
heat transfer, thus allowing more time for heat to be transferred into your
home. To do this, be sure to thoroughly preheat your stove and then
reduce the amount of primary air by closing the draft control down to a
lower setting. (More air may produce a slightly greater amount of heat,
but will greatly increase wood consumption).
To get the most out of your appliance, you will need to combine good
combustion efficiency with good heat transfer practices. The following
are some tips on how to operate your stove to achieve the highest overall
efficiency.
1. Thoroughly preheat your stove before slowing the burn rate by closing
the draft control.
2. When loading wood into a preheated stove or fireplace insert, allow
a vigorous fire to build before lowering the draft control.
3. Operate your stove as much as possible in the low to medium burn
ranges.
4. Do not lower the draft setting so low as to completely extinguish the
flames in the firebox. Check for at least some small flames twenty
minutes after setting the draft control.
5. Do not continually operate your stove or fireplace insert in the high
(wide open) setting. This wastes wood by carrying a great deal of
heat up the chimney and can damage your stove or fireplace insert
and chimney.
6. Go outside and check your chimney. More than a very small amount
of smoke indicates wasted heat, creosote build up and pollution (see
Figure 22).

trical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition. In Canada,
the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code - latest
edition.
DANGER: Disconnect power before servicing blower.
WARNING
In the event that you remove the blower for any reason, the rear heatshield must be returned to its original condi-
tion or replaced before using the heater. Excessive rear wall temperatures will result if the stove is burned with the
blower opening unobstructed.

DO’S AND DON’TS
DO NOT: Install or operate the appliance before reading this manual.
DO NOT: Close the draft beyond the point at which the flames are
completely extinguished.
DO NOT: Open the appliance door without fully opening the draft
first.
DO NOT: Burn driftwood or wood that has been in salt water. This
includes some mill ends and scrap lumber that has been
floated in salt water on the way to the mill. (This will void
your warranty).
DO NOT: Force oversized logs into the firebox as this may dislodge
the baffle assembly.
DO NOT: Close the door tightly during Burn-In Period.
DO: Consult local building department if other than recom-
mended clearances are desired.
DO: Read instructions for the baffle boards occasionally to
ensure you have not bumped or moved them out of place
when loading wood.
DO: Check the chimney and baffle monthly to make sure they are
clean.
DO: Burn seasoned, dry wood only! (RAIN = WET WOOD)
DO: Open the door frequently during Burn-In Period to keep
gasket from adhering to the curing paint.
DO: Enjoy the warm feeling of your new IHP appliance.
SMOKE DETECTOR RECOMMENDED
Since there are always several potential sources of fire in any home, we
recommend installing smoke detectors. If possible, install the smoke
detector in a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility of
occasional false activation from the heat produced by these appliances).
If your local code requires a smoke detector be installed within the same
room, you must follow the requirements of your local code. Check with
your local building department for requirements in your area.
CARBON MONOXIDE MONITOR RECOMMENDED
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of carbon monoxide poison-
ing are similar to the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you
have these signs, obtain fresh air immediately. Some people are more
affected by carbon monoxide than others, including pregnant women,
people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence
of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
It is against federal regulations to operate wood heaters in a man-
ner inconsistent with operating instructions in the manual.
PROHIBITED FUELS
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies
and lower emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned
hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hard-
woods. DO NOT BURN:
• Garbage;
• Lawn clippings or yard waste;
• Materials containing rubber, including tires;
• Materials containing plastic;
• Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners, or asphalt
products;
• Materials containing asbestos;
• Construction or demolition debris;
• Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood;
• Manure or animal remains;
• Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water saturated mate-
rials;
• Unseasoned wood;
• Christmas tree branches;
• Paper products, colored paper, cardboard, plywood, or particle-
board;
• gasoline;
• naphtha;
• engine oil;
• flammable liquids;
• solvents;
• grease; or
• coal
The prohibition against burning these materials does not prohibit the use
of fire starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust, wax and similar
substances for the purpose of starting a fire in an affected wood heater.
Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render the
heater ineffective and cause smoke. Intense firing with these materials
may overheat the fireplace, causing damage to the unit, a fire or even
possibly igniting a chimney fire if the chimney is creosoted. Burning
unapproved fuel, resulting in excessive pollutants being emitted, may be
