R Cape Cod Wood Stove ACCESSORIES The Cape Cod has several options available for installation and appearance. These options are packaged and sold separately and are listed below. It is a good idea to plan your installation on paper, using exact measurements for clearances and floor protection, before actually beginning the installation. If you’re not using an existing chimney, place the stove where there will be a clear passage for a factory-built listed chimney through the ceiling and roof.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove INSTALLATION A masonry chimney or a factory-built chimney must be the required height above the roof and any other nearby obstructions. The chimney must be at least three feet higher than the highest point where it passes through the roof and at least two feet higher than the highest part of the roof or structure that is within ten feet of the chimney, measured horizontally. See Figure 6. These are safety requirements and are not meant to assure proper flue draft.

R Cape Cod Wood Stove INSTALLATION 1. MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION You must use Outside Air Kit 831-1780 for installation in a mobile home. Use of alternative material will void your warranty. An outside air inlet must be provided for combustion and must remain clear of leaves, debris, ice and/or snow. It must be unrestricted while unit is in use to prevent room air starvation which can cause smoke spillage and an inability to maintain a fire. Smoke spillage can also set off smoke alarms. 2.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove INSTALLATION ASSEMBLY 1 2 Place the unit in a location near the final installation area and follow the procedures below: Open the stove and remove all the parts and articles packed inside. Inspect all the parts and cast iron body for shipping damage. Contact your dealer if any irregularities are noticed. Install floor protection if the heater is being placed on a combustible floor. Refer to the section on floor protectors for required materials and sizes on page 10.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove INSTALLATION OUTSIDE AIR KIT INSTALLATION NOTE 1: An outside air kit is required for Mobile Home Installation. Use Part #831-1780 NOTE 2: If you plan to install the optional blower and the outside air kit, complete installation of the outside air kit first.

R Cape Cod Wood Stove OPERATION PRE-USE CHECK BURNING PROCESS Use the following checklist as a guide to ensure a correct and complete installation: In recent years there has been an increasing concern about the quality of our air. Much of the blame for poor air quality has been placed on the burning of wood for home heating.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove OPERATION BURNING PROCESS, CONT. WOOD SELECTION AND STORAGE The next stage of burning, the secondary stage, is the period when the wood gives off flammable gases which burn above the fuel with bright flames. During this stage of burning it is very important that the flames be maintained and not allowed to go out. This will insure the cleanest possible fire.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove OPERATION AIR CONTROLS START-UP AIR SYSTEM The start-up combustion air enters at the rear of the firebox through the rear air tubes. To start your fire, push control in. After 5 to 15 minutes, when fire is well established, pull control out. PRIMARY AIR SYSTEM The primary air enters below the ash catcher and is directed to the upper front of the firebox, near the top of the glass door, and to the lower front of firebox.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove OPERATING TIPS OPERATION Here are a few tips on operating your Cape Cod stove to obtain maximum efficiency with lowest emissions: 1. When initially loading the stove, burn your Cape Cod with the primary air control wide open for a minimum of 15 minutes, and the start-up air control open for 5 to 15 minutes. Then adjust for your desired heat output. 2. Regulate burn rate (heat output) by using the primary air slide control (center, under ashcatcher).
R Cape Cod Wood Stove OPERATION Before lighting your first fire in the stove, make certain that the kaowool blanket is correctly positioned (see page 33 for kaowool blanket position), remove any labels from the glass and ensure that the protective cover is removed from the griddle. There are many ways to build a fire. The basic principle is to light easily-ignitable tinder or paper, which ignites the fast burning kindling, which in turn ignites the slow-burning firewood.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove ASH REMOVAL MAINTENANCE The Cape Cod is equipped with an ash removal system. We recommend emptying the ash pan at least once a week when the stove is in constant operation. The amount of ash is dependent on the type of wood being burned. DO NOT ALLOW ASHES TO BUILD UP IN THE ASHPAN UNTIL THEY REACH THE GRATE. THIS WILL LEAD TO PREMATURE DETERIORATION OF THE GRATE AND MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO EMPTY THE ASH PAN. To empty the ash pan and dispose of ashes: 1.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove MAINTENANCE CHIMNEY CLEANING CREOSOTE -- FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL 1. Remove all ash from the firebox and extinguish all hot embers before disposal. Allow the stove to cool completely. When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a newly-started or a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove CHIMNEY CLEANING, CONT. MAINTENANCE CAUTION! The baffle and kaowool blanket placement is crucial to the optimum performance of the Cape Cod. Follow these steps carefully to ensure proper placement of baffles and kaowool at time of initial installation and following chimney cleaning.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove MAINTENANCE The Cape Cod stove is equipped with ceramic, heat-resistant glass, which can only be broken by impact or misuse. Do not slam the stove door or impact the glass. When closing the door, make sure that logs do not protrude against the glass. Inspect the glass regularly for cracks or breaks. If you detect a crack or break, extinguish the fire immediately and contact your Dealer for replacement.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove MAINTENANCE DOOR & GASKET Periodically check the door gasket for proper seal. As the gasket compresses or “seats” during use, it may become necessary to adjust or tighten the door latch either by removing spacer washers, shown below (at least one washer must be left in place) or, by replacing the gasket material as wear or damage to the gasket material can cause air leakage into the firebox resulting in overfiring and loss of efficiency.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove TROUBLESHOOTING The Cape Cod woodstove requires a minimum flue draft of .10 inches of water column on High, and .04 inches of water column on Low, as measured with a draft meter. Most woodstove dealers have draft meters available to measure your flue draft if you suspect a problem.
R Cape Cod Wood Stove FLUE DRAFT A proper amount of flue draft is required to assure the safe and efficient operation of the Cape Cod woodstove. Flue draft is measured as negative pressure in the chimney. The amount of negative pressure determines the strength of the draft. This draft performs two important roles in the operation of the woodstove. It draws the combustion air into the firebox, and pulls the smoke out of the chimney.
