BEFORE INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE
1. Check with the building inspector's office for compliance with local
codes; a permit may be required.
2. This appliance requires a masonry or prefabricated chimney listed
to ULC S629 (Canada) and Ul103ht (U.S.) Sized correctly.
3. A 6" (152mm) diameter flue is required for proper performance.
4. Always connect this unit to a chimney and NEVER vent to another
room or inside a building.
5. DO NOT connect this unit to any duct work to which another
appliance is connected such as a furnace.
6. DO NOT connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another
appliance.
7. The connector pipe and chimney should be inspected periodically
and cleaned if necessary.
8. Remember the clearance distances when you place furniture or
other objects within the area. DO NOT store wood, flammable
liquids or other combustible materials too close to the unit.
Refer to certification label on back of your unit for required
clearances.
9. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire authority for
information on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a clearly
understood plan to handle a chimney fire. In the event of a
Chimney fire, turn air control to closed position and
CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
10. DO NOT tamper with combustion air control beyond normal
l adjustment.
11. DO NOT install these units in a mobile home or trailer.
These units are NOT mobile home approved.
OPERATION
WHY THE CORRECT FLUE SIZE IS IMPORTANT - 6"
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. An uncontrolled burn or a glowing red part or chimney
connector indicates excessive draft. Inadequate draft may cause
back puffing into the room and "plugging" of the chimney and/or
cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room through appliance
and chimney connector joints.
Today's solid fuel appliances are much more efficient than in the past.
The units are designed to give you controlled combustion, as well as
maximum heat transfer, using less fuel to do so.
The design of your new appliance is such that the exhaust “smoke” is
now at lower temperatures than in the past, therefore requiring proper
chimney size to give adequate draft. If your chimney is too large, the
heating appliance will have a difficult time to raise the “chimney flue”
temperature to give adequate draft, therefore causing a smoke back
up, poor burn, or both.
Should you experience such a problem call in a
local chimney expert.
With the door closed, the rate of burning is regulated by the amount
of air allowed to enter the unit through the air control. With
experience you will be able to set the control for heat and burning
time desired.
Once the required chimney draft is obtained, operate only with doors
closed and open doors slowly when re-fueling. (This will reduce or
eliminate smoke from entering the room).
Attempts to achieve higher output rates that exceed heater design
specifications can result in permanent damage to the heater. The
recommended wood load is level with the top of the firebricks.
Overloading may prevent sufficient air entering the heater to properly
fuel the fire.
Operate this heater only with the door closed.
DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS.
DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE
FIRE
ALWAYS PROVIDE A SOURCE OF FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM
WHERE THE UNIT IS INSTALLED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY
RESULT IN AIR STARVATION OF OTHER FUEL BURNING
APPLIANCES AND THE POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF
HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS.
THIS HEATER IS EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION.
SERIOUS BURNS CAN RESULT FROM CONTACT.
KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY.
OPTIONAL BLOWER: MODEL S31105
120 VOLTS, 60Hz, 0.75 AMPS, 2900 RPM
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING UNIT.
IMPORTANT: FOR OPTIMUM HEATER PERFORMANCE AT “LOW” BURN
RATE, OPERATE THE FAN AT LOW SPEED.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove all parts from inside the stove body.
2. Select the proper location for the stove. These appliances must
not be installed any closer than the minimum clearance to
combustible materials shown in Brick pattern (on diagram sheet).
The stove must be installed on a non combustible surface as
shown in Figure A (on diagram sheet).
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE MINIMUM CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS AND
NON COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE REQUIREMENTS MAY RESULT IN AN
UNSAFE INSTALLATION.
3. If non combustible materials have been installed on the walls,
obtain the minimum clearances from either the manufacturer of
these materials or the local building inspectors office.
4. Install the refractory bricks (see Figure B on diagram sheet).
5. Install the stovepipe INSIDE the flue collar on the top of the stove
between the stove and chimney.
6. DO NOT use a grate to elevate the fire.
STOVE PIPE
1. A clearance of 18 inches (457mm) between the stovepipe and
combustible materials may be required. Check with authorities
having jurisdiction in your area.
2. All pipe sections must be connected with the male end (crimped
end) toward the stove.
3. Fasten the stove pipe to the flue collar by the use of three sheet
metal screws. Do the same at each additional joint to make the
entire installation rigid.
4. Maintain the required diameter flue for the entire installation.
5. If you are connecting the stove to an old masonry flue, be sure to
have it inspected for cracks and general condition.
Resizing with a stainless steel liner may be required.
6. It is recommended that no more than two 90 degree bends be
used in the stove pipe installation. More than two 90 degree bends
may decrease the amount of draw and possibly cause smoke
Spillage.
7. A damper is not required in this installation. Remove damper plate
in the chimney or secure in the OPEN position.
8. Single wall flue pipe assemblies must not exceed 10 feet
(3 metres) in overall length.
FLOOR PROTECTION
INSTALLATION ON A CONCRETE FLOOR
An appliance mounted on a concrete floor does not require floor
protection.
Carpeting and any other combustible material shall not cover Floor
Protector.
If a combustible surface is applied to the concrete floor, a clearance
must be maintained equivalent to the area reserved for the floor
protector. See insert sheet Figure “A”.
INSTALLATION ON A COMBUSTIBLE FLOOR
If the appliance is to be installed on a combustible floor or a combustible
floor covering, it must be installed on a 3/8”(10mm) thick non-
combustible millboard floor protector or durable equivalent. The pad
must be installed beneath the appliance extending 18”(457mm) in
Canada, 16”(406mm) in the U.S.A. On any side equipped with a door,
and 8”(203mm) on all other sides. In the U.S.A. The pad must cover any
horizontal chimney connector runs and extend 2”(51mm) beyond each
side.
A grouted ceramic floor-tile surface installed per local building code is
considered a durable equivalent.
CHIMNEY
CONTACT YOUR LOCAL BUILDING AUTHORITY FOR
APPROVED METHODS OF INSTALLATION
1. This appliance requires a masonry or pre-manufactured chimney
listed to ULC S629 (Canada) and UL103HT (USA) sized correctly.
2. If a masonry chimney is used it is advisable to have your chimney
inspected for cracks and check the general condition before you
install your unit. Relining may be required to reduce flue diameter
to the appropriate functional size.
3. To help ensure a good draft, the top of the chimney should be at
least 3 feet (914mm) above the point of penetration through the roof,
and be at least 2 (610mm) feet higher than any point of the roof within
10 feet (3M).
4. The chimney connector shall not pass through an attic, roof space,
closet, concealed space, floor, ceiling, wall, or any partition of
combustible construction.
5. The minimum overall height of your chimney should be
15 feet (5M) from the floor. (SEE ATTACHED INSERT SHEET)
6. Do not use make shift compromises during installation.
REFER TO CHIMNEY MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATION
Do not use a grate or elevate fire. Build wood fire directly on hearth.
When the stove is used for the first time the solvents in the paint will
smoke off.
WOOD
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiency and
lower emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned
hardwood, as compared to softwood or to green or freshly cut hardwood.
Only use dry seasoned wood. Green wood, besides burning at only 60
percent of the fuel value of dry wood, deposits creosote on the inside of
your stove and along the chimney. This can cause an extreme danger of
chimney fire. To be called “seasoned”, wood must be dried for a year.
Regardless of whether the wood is green or seasoned, it should be
stored in a well-sheltered, ventilated area to allow proper drying during
the year to come. Wood should be stored beyond recommended
clearance from combustibles.
DO NOT BURN:
* Treated Wood * Solvents * Trash *Coal
* Garbage * Cardboard * Coloured Papers
