HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 9.4.1 The use of a thermometer The first use of a thermometer is to inform the user about the discharge temperature of flue gases. Without accurate measurement of the draft using a pressure gauge (manometer), the thermometer will indicate if the temperature is ideal, too low or too high. The use of a thermometer is therefore an acceptable alternative that can tell if the chimney is hot enough to generate an adequate draft.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual Appendix 1: Optional thermostat installation Using a thermostat will help you maintain a constant temperature throughout the house. A fixed wall mounted 24v thermostat is required. NOTE THERMOSTAT MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTION ALWAYS OVERRIDES THE INFORMATION PUBLISHED IN THE FOLLOWING SECTION.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual Example of thermostat wiring: Connect one wire to "HR" and the other wire to "W". The red jumper can be left in place. For more information, refer to the manufacturer's instructions. Thermostat wiring – Parallel Installation This furnace may be installed in parallel as an add-on to an existing furnace in the USA only. Such an installation requires that the furnace’s controls be interlocked to prevent both furnaces from heating simultaneously.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual Step 2. From the thermostat connected to the existing furnace, connect 2 new wire (H) on the Rh and W terminals of your thermostat and fix them to the terminal on the circuit board labeled "I" (interlock) of the Add-On furnace.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual Appendix 2: Optional air filters (AC01390, AC01391) The filter option (AC01390 – cardboard frame or AC01391 – washable aluminum) allows filtrating dust and other particles before distributing warm air in your installation in addition of protecting your blower. This system can be installed on any side of the blower box located behind the furnace on the most accessible side of your installation.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual Appendix 3: Optional Air return adapter (AC01392) The optional air return adapter (AC01392) can be added to the furnace to increase the efficiency of your system. This option allows you to take in the fresh air from the rooms connected to the return system and bring it back towards the furnace to be heated. This option can be installed on either sides or at the back of the blower box.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual PART 2 – OERATION, MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Please see Part 1 for installation instructions. Please see Part 3 for features and safety instructions. 9.5 How to prepare or buy good firewood 9.5.1 What is good firewood? Good firewood has been cut to the correct length for the furnace, split to a range of sizes and stacked in the open until its moisture content is reduced to 15% to 20%. 9.5.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 9.5.4 Piece size Firewood dries more quickly when it is split. Large unsplit rounds can take years to dry enough to burn. Even when dried, unsplit logs are difficult to ignite because they don’t have the sharp edges where the flames first catch. Logs as small as 3" (76 mm) should be split to encourage drying. Wood should be split to a range of sizes, from about 3" to 6" (76 mm to 152 mm) in cross section.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual Here are some things to consider in estimating drying time: Firewood takes a long time to dry Firewood bought from a dealer is rarely dry enough to burn, so it is advisable to buy the wood in spring and dry it yourself Drying happens faster in dry weather than in damp, maritime climates Drying happens faster in warm summer weather than in winter weather Small pieces dry more quickly than large pieces Split pieces dry more quickly tha
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 10 Operating your furnace 10.1 Your first fires Two things will happen as you burn your first few fires; the paint cures and the internal components of the furnace are conditioned. As the paint cures, some of the chemicals vaporize. The vapours are not poisonous, but they do smell bad. Fresh paint fumes can also cause false alarms in smoke detectors.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 10.2.2 The top down fire The top down fire starting method solves two problems with the conventional method: first, it does not collapse and smother itself as it burns; and second, it is not necessary to build up the fire gradually because the firebox is loaded before the fire is lit. A top down fire can provide up to two hours of heating or more. The top down method only works properly if the wood is well-seasoned.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual When you burn in cycles, you rarely need to open the furnace’s loading door while the wood is burning. This is an advantage because smoke could escape from the furnace when the door is opened as a full fire is burning. This is especially true if the chimney connector has 90 degree elbows and if the chimney runs up the outside wall of the house.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 10.3.3 Firing each new hot load Place the new load of wood on and behind the charcoal, and not too close to the glass. Close the door and open the air control damper. Leave the air control damper open until the firebox is full of flames, the wood has charred to black and its edges are glowing red.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual The following figure shows the position of the air control damper (A) according to the position of the air control damper switch (B). 10.3.5 Building different fires for different needs Using the air control is not the only way to match the furnace’s heat output to the heat demand. Your house will need far less heat in October than in January to be kept at a comfortable temperature.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 10.3.5.3 High output fires for cold weather When the heat demand is high during cold weather, you’ll need a fire that burns steadily and brightly. This is the time to use your biggest pieces of hardwood fuel if you have it. Put the biggest pieces at the back of the firebox and place the rest of the pieces compactly. A densely built fire like this will produce the longest burn your furnace is capable of.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual Reducing the combustion air will do two things. First, the combustion rate will decrease, which will spread the thermal energy of the fuel over a longer period of time. In addition, the velocity of the exhaust gas decreases, which allows better heat transfer in the heat exchanger and chimney. The closure of the main air intake reduces the intensity of the flames which indicates the achievement of optimum performance.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 10.5 Manual or thermostat control From factory, the opening and closing of the air inlet damper is manually activated by the means of a switch located at the rear of the furnace. The switch has two positions; opened and closed. Position of the air control rod when the switch in the “closed” position (-).
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 10.7 Prolonged power outage To reduce the risk of overheating during a prolonged power outage (more than 10 minutes), it is recommended damper is closed. If your furnace is equipped with the optional filter, remove the air filter to improve the circulation of air around the combustion chamber of the furnace. Do not load the furnace more than 50 percent of its capacity to prevent the risk of overheating, 11 Maintaining your wood heating system 11.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual When the weather is mild, you may find that letting the fire go out is better than trying to maintain a continuous fire. Use the technique described above for building a fire to take the chill off the house. If you do get brown stains on the glass you can remove them with special cleaners for wood furnace glass doors. Do not use abrasives to clean your furnace’s door glass.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 11.1.4 Replacement of the glass and gaskets After a year or more of use, the gasket of the door will compress and become hard which can allow air to pass. You can check the air tightness of your door gasket by closing and locking the door on a piece of paper. Check all around the door. If the paper slides easily anywhere, it is time to replace the gasket. Use a good quality gasket that you can purchase from your dealer.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 8. Install the new gasket on the glass. Remove a part of the paper covering the gasket adhesive. Center the gasket on the edge of the glass so that when folded and glued, the gasket is equal on both sides. Do not stretch the gasket during installation. Remove a majority of the paper, turn the glass to facilitate and complete the installation of the gasket. When you return to the starting point, cut the gasket so that the ends overlap by about 1/2" (13 mm).
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual For best results, use the same paint that was originally used on the furnace, which is available in spray cans. See your dealer for details. 11.1.6 Heat exchangers care Heat exchangers must be cleaned thoroughly at the end of every heating season.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 3. Use the tool provided, clean the three exchanger pipes. 4. Dirt in the exchangers 1 and 3 fall into the combustion chamber, at the rear.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 5. Dirt in the central exchanger (2) will be removed from the front or the rear of the furnace. If you remove dirt from the central exchange to the back of the furnace, remove the black pipe connector in order to dispose of the dirt. 6. Then, check that the baffle is clear of ash and reposition it in its original position towards the back of the combustion chamber. 7. Close the exchanger access door and secure it using the washer (C) and wing nut (B). 8.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 11.2 Chimney and chimney connector maintenance 11.2.1 Why chimney cleaning is necessary Wood smoke can condense inside the chimney connector and chimney, forming a combustible deposit called creosote. If creosote is allowed to build up in the venting system it can ignite when a hot fire is burned in the furnace and a very hot fire can progress to the top of the chimney. Severe chimney fires can damage even the best chimneys.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual CAUTION BEFORE INSTALLING THE FIREBRICK, CHECK TO ENSURE THAT NONE ARE BROKEN OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY. IF SO, HAVE THE DAMAGED ONES REPLACED. CHECK THE FIREBRICK FOR DAMAGE AT LEAST ANNUALLY AND REPLACE ANY BROKEN OR DAMAGED ONES WITH NEW ONES. INSPECTION AND CLEANING OF THE CHIMNEY IS FACILITATED BY THE REMOVABLE BAFFLE. 11.3 Smoke pipe inspection The smoke pipe must be inspected regularly during the heating season.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 12 Troubleshooting PROBLEMS CAUSES SOLUTIONS Heating inefficient during the first combustions. Lack of draft. Improper adjustment of the barometric damper (opened too wide). Chimney flue restriction (too long. 90o elbows) Adjust the damper, minimize the smoke pipe length and use 45o elbows. Furnace burns well, warm air plenum is very hot but there is not much heat coming out in the room.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual 12.1 Installation of secondary air tubes IMPORTANT OPERATION OF YOUR FURNACE WITHOUT THE BAFFLE MAY CAUSE UNSAFE AND HAZARDOUS TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY. 1- Starting with the rear tube, lean and insert the right end of the secondary air tube into the rear right channel hole. Then lift and insert the left end of the tube into the rear left channel.
HeatPack Furnace Installation and Operation Manual Important Notes: The air tubes are identified for placement as follows: Model Type of tube HEATPACK Front (1) ► 66 holes of 0.109" Middle front (2) ► 33 holes of 0.109" Middle rear (3) ► 33 holes of 0.109" Rear (4) ► 33 holes of 0.109" 12.2 Baffle removal or replacement 1- Following the instructions from the previous section, remove the first 3 secondary air tubes. 2- Remove the baffle. 3- Replace with a new one, if necessary.
