CAUTION If you have any doubt concerning your ability to complete your installation in a professional-like manner after reading these instructions, you should obtain the services of an installer who is versed in all aspects as to the correct and safe installation. Do not use temporary, makeshift compromises during installation. BEFORE INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE 1. HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS. 2.
WHY THE CORRECT FLUE SIZE IS IMPORTANT: 6” “Draft” is the force that 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 can indicate excessive draft.
FLUE SYSTEM 1. Existing Flue System If you have chosen a freestanding unit, this stove is designed to connect to an existing flue system, such as masonry or a pre-manufactured Class A flue system. If you have a masonry flue system, the inner liner should be inspected carefully for cracks; if there is no liner in your chimney, we recommend you install a steel liner or have one installed. If you have an existing pre-manufactured system the inner liner should be inspected for warping or buckling.
Follow all venting system manufacturer’s installation requirements AND their required clearances. 41.25” W x 42.0” D Single wall chimney connector 13” Min. 13” Min. 13” Min.
INSTALLATION APPLICATIONS, Cont’d.
Pre-Manufactured Flue System: In the past few years pre-manufactured flue systems have become very popular, because this type system is easily installed and, when done correctly, is very safe. There are many pre-manufactured flue systems on the market, and when making your choice it should be U.L., B.O.C.A. or I.C.B.O. approved. Any of these systems are constructed of the proper materials and meet the proper safety standards. Your local dealer normally handles an approved brand of flue pipe.
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 1” thick non-combustible millboard floor protector or a durable equivalent, with a “R” factor of no less than “2.” The pad must be installed beneath the unit, extending 16” (U.S.) on the side equipped with a door, and 8” on all other sides. The pad must cover any horizontal chimney connector runs and extend 2” beyond each side.
3. Side Heat Shields This accessory item comes with the hardware (six (6) mounting screws) necessary to install it on the rear of the stove. This is a two-piece heat shield, but is installed one piece at a time. There are prepunched holes on each side of the Rear Heat Shield; while holding each piece of the Side Heat Shield in place, align the pre-punched holes in the Side Heat Shield with the existing holes in the Rear Heat Shield, and fasten with the screws provided.
FREESTANDING PLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION The first problem you may encounter is getting your stove into your home -- all of our stove products are well constructed, which makes them rather heavy. Three to four adults can normally handle a unit, but we still recommend using a handcart. Never attempt to handle a heating product alone!!! The door and brick can be temporarily removed to lighten the unit (refer to Brick Layout).
13. Single wall flue pipe assemblies must not exceed 10 feet (10’) in overall length. Mobile Home Installation Secure the heater to the floor using the two holes in the pedestal. If the unit is on a combustible surface, you will need to drill matching holes in the floor protection that you choose (see Floor Protection section). Do not disturb the structural integrity of the home, and be sure the unit is permanently electrically grounded to the chassis of your home.
CHIMNEY REFER TO CHIMNEY AND CHIMNEY CONNECTOR MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT MANUFACTURER CONTACT YOUR LOCAL BUILDING AUTHORITY FOR APPROVED METHODS OF INSTALLATION 1. This appliance requires a masonry or premanufactured chimney listed to UL103HT 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 installing your unit.
FIRST FIRE – Remember to ventilate well. Allow the stove to cure before burning for long periods of time at high temperatures. Flat spots on the painted surface are normal. Shiny spots on the painted surface (before burning) are normal. Call Customer Service at (800) 245-6489 if you have any questions. BUILDING A FIRE 1. Open the air inlet control fully (See Illustration 6). 2. Place a small amount of crumpled paper or approved starter material in the stove. 3.
GLASS CARE REPLACE GLASS ONLY WITH HIGH-TEMPERATURE ROBAX PYROCERAM OF THE PROPER SIZE AND THICKNESS. The following use and safety tips should be observed: 1. Inspect the glass regularly for cracks or breaks. Surface scratches are acceptable and normal, but if this glass becomes cracked in any area, the unit should be shut down and the window replaced with this high-temperature ceramic glass. 2. Do not slam the door or otherwise impact the glass.
The following steps should be followed for replacement of the door gasket: 1. Ensure the appliance is not in operation and is thoroughly cooled. 2. Remove the old door gasket and clean the gasket channel. 3. Using an approved high-temperature gasket cement, apply a thin coat in the bottom of the channel. 4. Starting at the hinge side of the door, work into the channel around the door unit, trim to length and butt the ends together. 5.
Placement of Stainless Steel Burner Tubes for all 13-NCMH, 50-SNC13MH and 50-TNC13MH stove models.
CREOSOTE When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors. These combine with moisture to form creosote. Creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire – as a result, creosote residue accumulates on the lining of the flue. If ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney should be inspected on a regular basis during the heating season, to determine if a creosote build-up has accumulated.
IMPORTANT: HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS WORTH REVIEWING 1. What is the correct way to start a fire? You will need small pieces of dry wood (kindling) and paper. Use only newspaper or paper that has not been coated or that has had materials glued or applied to it. Never use coated or colored paper (such as advertising flyers). Open the door of the wood stove. Crumple several pieces of paper, and place them in the center of the firebox, directly on the firebricks of the stove.
7. Is it normal for soot to cover the glass at the beginning of a fire? This stove has been built with an air wash system that will help keep the glass clear when the firebox has reached a good operating temperature, and also has a good draft. Cold firebox temperature and poor draft cause soot to form on the glass. Once the firebox temperature and the draft increase, the soot should burn off. 8.

WOOD - Meets the 2015 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s crib wood PLEASE NOTE: emission limits for wood heaters sold after May 15, 2015 EPA INFORMATION The following additions to your owner’s manual will enable you to achieve optimal emissions performance from your stove. Important safety tips are also included. ‐ Proper Installation – Please refer to the Installation section of your owner’s manual and follow the guidelines listed therein for safety and for optimal emissions performance.
• INSTALL three sheet metal screws at every chimney connector joint. • AVOID excessive horizontal runs and elbows, as both will reduce the draft of the venting system and will result in poor stove performance. • INSPECT your venting system often, to be certain it is clear of creosote, fly‐ash and other restrictions. • CLEAN the venting system as detailed in the maintenance section of this manual. • ADHERE to the 10‐3‐2 rule regarding chimney terminations.
Moisture Meter Information Firewood is ready at 10‐25% moisture content. Newly‐cut logs can have a moisture content (MC) of 80% or more, depending on species. Since wood shrinks, and can also split, twist or otherwise change shape as it dries, most wood is dried before being used. Air drying, or ‘seasoning,’ is the most common method used for cord wood. In most parts of the United States, the minimum moisture content that can be generally obtained in air drying is about 12 to 15 percent.
‐ WHAT FUELS NOT TO USE: 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 IN USE. ADDITIONALLY, NEVER APPLY FIRE‐STARTER TO ANY HOT SURFACE OR EMBERS IN THE STOVE. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE. DO NOT BURN FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL.
Remember: “This wood heater needs periodic inspection and repair for proper operation. It is against federal regulations to operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual.” More: Burner Tubes – To replace a tube, first be sure that you order the correct tube you need to replace. Then using a 5/16” socket or open end wrench, remove the screw located on the left side of the tube. Be sure to keep the screw.
