Heat Exchange Tubes
Location: The heat exchange tubes are located in the top of the firebox. The back
ends of the tubes are over the hot air plenum. The front of the tubes extend
through the front wall of the stove. There are 16 Heat Exchange tubes in
the Multi Fuel stoves
Purpose: The heat exchange tubes transfer heat from the firebox into the room air
that is blown through the tubes.
Heat Exchange Tube Scraper
Location: Above the door, extending through the Hot Air opening. See Figure 22 on
Page 97.
Purpose: This rod when pulled back and forth cleans the heat exchange tubes of ash
buildup.
Heat Exchange Baffle
Location: The baffle is located below the Heat Exchange Tubes. The front has 2
screws welded to the baffle that are slid into 2 keyhole slots to attach the
baffle to the top of the firebox area. The back edge is lifted up and slid
over the back wall of the stove. This prevents the baffle from falling out.
See Figure 22 on Page 97.
Purpose: The baffle forces the Heated Exhaust gases towards the front of the stove
and flow along the full length of the heat exchange tubes. This increases
the heat exchange efficiency of the stove, by keeping the heated gases in
the stove longer.
Air Plenum – Hot Air Plenum
Location: The hot air plenum is located behind the firebox and is part of the Burn
system of the stove. See Figure 20 on Page 95.
Purpose: The hot air plenum carries the hot exhaust gases from the firebox to the
exhaust chamber. This plenum also houses the "Ash Whips". These
whips help remove fly ash from the exhaust gases and deposit them in the
Ash Traps.
