Safety and Maintenance 1. Burn only dry, well seasoned wood. The denser or heavier the wood when dry, the greater its heat value. This is why hardwoods are generally preferred. Green or wet wood should not be used, as it will reduce heat output, as well as contributing significantly to creosote buildup. 2. Remove ashes frequently and only when the stove is cold. Too much ash could cause embers to roll out the door when it is opened. This may pose a fire hazard.
Maintenance Checks Check the following parts for damage such as cracks, excessive corrosion, burned out sections and excessive warping: (See website for descriptions and more detail) Weekly: - Firebrick - Visual, for cracking. - Door Gasket - sagging, placement, damage. Monthly - Brick rail tabs and brick rails. - Air riser tube in the back of the firebox. - Back side of airwash chamber. - Baffle locking pin. - Boost tube cover. When Cleaning the Chimney System: - Top baffle board/blanket. - Baffle.
Creosote Formation and Need for Removal When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.
If You Suspect a Chimney Fire Signs of a chimney fire may be one or more of the following: 1. A roaring sound 2. Vibration of the chimney 3. Flames and sparks shooting out of the top of the chimney In Case of a Chimney Fire 1. Immediately close the air inlets on the stove. 2. Evacuate the home, and call the local fire department. 3. After the chimney fire has been extinguished, the chimney must be cleaned and checked for stress and cracking before starting another fire.
Installation – Residential Warning: Under no circumstances is this heater to be installed in a makeshift or "temporary" manner. It may be fired only after the stove is installed properly. • DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONNECT THIS HEATER TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT. • We recommend that our woodburning hearth products be installed and serviced by professionals who are certified in the U.S.
Chimney and Connector – Residential Connect to a listed chimney or a chimney suitable for use with solid fuel that is lined and in good condition and meets local building codes. The chimney flue size should be the same as the stove outlet for optimal performance. Reducing or increasing the flue size may adversely affect stove performance. Chimney flue exit is to be 3 feet (1 m) above roof and two feet (0.6 m) above highest projection within 10 feet (3 m). The installation must meet all local codes.
Installation – Mobile Home Warning: Under no circumstances is this heater to be installed in a makeshift or "temporary" manner. It may be fired only after the following conditions have been met. • • DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE. DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM. CAUTION: The structural integrity of the mobile home floor, wall, and ceiling/roof must be maintained. Outside air supply must be used for Mobile Home installations (see Figure #4, Page 9.
Fig #4 SPARK ARRESTOR RAIN CAP CHIMNEY 3' (914 mm) MINIMUM STORM COLLAR RADIATION SHIELD The chimney may incorporate an offset. To do this safely, all sections of listed connector, offset elbows and chimney section must be screwed together by at least three sheet metal screws per joint. The chimney must be suitably supported by the chimney manufacturer's listed offset support.
Installation Procedure – Mobile Home CAUTION: THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MOBILE HOME FLOOR, WALL AND CEILING/ROOF MUST BE MAINTAINED. Note: See "Combustion Air" section on page 11 1. Position stove and floor protection with hole for combustion air in accordance with the clearances as stated on the label and in Figure #3. 2. Mark the position for the hole in the ceiling and roof by using a string and plumb-bob. 3.
Floor Protector Minimum Width - 40” The stove may be installed on a combustible floor provided noncombustible ember protection is used. Minimum Overall Depth - 50 1/2” This protection must extend as follows: Fig #5 Canada Only Fig #6 U.S.A. Only Minimum Width - 34” Minimum Overall Depth - 40 1/2” In Canada: 18" (457 mm) on the firing side and 8" (203 mm) to the other sides. See Figure #5 on left. In USA: 16" (406 mm) to the front and 8" (203 mm) to the sides of the fuel loading door opening.
Operation CAUTION: Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or "freshen up" a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use. CAUTION: Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. Your PACIFIC ENERGY heater is designed for maximum overall efficiency at a moderate firing rate. Overfiring is hazardous and a waste of fuel.
Lighting for the First Time Curing of the Paint Finish To achieve the best finish, the paint on your stove must be baked on. When burning your stove for the first 2-3 times it is very important that the room be well ventilated. Open all windows and doors. Smoke and fumes caused by the curing process may cause discomfort to some individuals. Lighting a Fire WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a fire. 1.
Restarting After Extended or Overnight Burns 1. Open door and rake hot embers towards the front of the heater. Add a couple of dry, split logs on top of embers, close door. 2. Adjust air control to high (left position) and in just a few minutes, logs should begin burning. 3. After wood has charred, reset air control to desired setting. 4. To achieve maximum firing rate, set control to high (left position). Do not use this setting other than for starting or preheating fresh fuel loads.
Disposal of Ashes Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed outside on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in a closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other waste should not be placed in this container.
APPENDIX A Troubleshooting Problem Cause Cure Glass is Dirty 1. Wood is wet • Use dry wood 2. Turning down air control or damper too soon • Do not turn down until a) there is a good bed of coals b) the wood is charred 3. Draft too low • Improper chimney height and / or diameter, -consult dealer • Chimney plugged or restricted, - inspect and clean • Provide outside air for combustion 4.
