Catalytic Combustor Replacement
If you suspect that your catalytic combustor is not working, the catalytic
combustor should be removed and inspected to identify the source of
the problem.
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE NOVA WOOD HEATER
WITH CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR REMOVED!
To access the catalytic combustor, first remove the chimney connector
pipe from the stove. The catalytic combustor may then be removed
from its holder by reaching into the back of the stove. If any cracking
or peeling is observed, the catalytic combustor must be immediately
replaced. Please contact MF Fire for a replacement catalytic
combustor. NOTE: it may be easier to remove the flue collar as well to
more easily access your catalytic combustor.
To replace the catalytic combustor, simply insert the new catalytic
combustor inside the horizontal rectangular holder. Replace and tightly
secure the flue collar (if removed) and the chimney connector pipe
before operating the heater again.
Safety Notice: Burn untreated wood only. Burning materials
such as treated wood, metal foil, coal, plastic, garbage,
Sulphur, or oil may damage the catalytic combustor.
Excessive smoking indicated the combustor has failed and
requires replacement.
