Installation

Please see all methods of Installation at the
rear of this booklet.
This is a furnace, not a free standing stove. You must
direct heated air from 8" outlets away from the furnace,
or it will not function properly.
1. This installation must be done by a qualified heating
equipment installer.
2. The installation is to be done in compliance with
National Fire Protection Association installation
standards: No. 89M, 90B, 211, 70 (National Electri-
cal Code) and Uniform Mechanical Code 913, 6-4,
in the states where applicable. (Their code offers
connecting smoke pipe connectors into chimney
with other fuel burning appliances.)
3. Rooms large in comparison with size of the appli-
ance:
a) Wood or Coal Burning Furnace needs air for
combustion and circulation to house.
b) Provision must be made to make up this air and
not starve gas or oil furnace of combustion air.
c) Have the "Authority Having Jurisdiction" deter-
mine that air is of adequate makeup. (Reference
N.F.P.A. Nos. 30&54, Code for Installation of Gas
& Oil Equipment).
4. Have the"Authority Having Jurisdiction" to inspect
all chimneys and installations for adequate venting
and for compliance with standard and local codes
and regulations regarding installation of wood burn-
ing appliances.
5. Installation for Supplemental Heat Application to
Existing Central System.
a) Place Wood or Coal Burning Furnace so that the
chimney connector will be as short as practical
and avoiding unnecessary sharp turns in the
smoke pipe connector and the installation of
devices that would create excessive resistance
to the flow of flue gases.
b) Locate the Wood or Coal Burning Furnace as
close as practical to the existing central hot air
heating system, maintaining clearances as stated
on the label on the fuel door.
c) Clearance from combustible materials must com-
ply with those stated on the label on the side of
the unit. Refer to the clearance table in the front
of this manual.
The installation must be made only on a noncombus-
tible floor.
d) Install the smoke pipe connector to the chimney
with 26-gauge pipe and elbows (to be purchased
separately), maintaining the proper clearances
for the specific model. Seal the smoke pipe in
the chimney with furnace cement. (The chimney
connector shall be securely supported, and joints
fastened with sheet metal screws or rivets.)
e) Install 8" diameter heat pipe to plenum of the
central hot air furnace. Use 26-gauge pipe and
connectors (to be purchased separately).
central air conditioning is installed in the plenum,
install heat pipe above the air conditioning unit.
Secure heat pipe connection with supports and
sheet metal screws.
f) Connect electrical supply in the electrical junction
box that is mounted on the back of the Furnace.
See Wiring Diagram (Fig. 16). Remove the
cover from electrical junction box and connect
power supply wires to wires designated, using
wire nuts. The power cord supplied may be used
for installation, if permitted by local codes and
regulations. If the power cord supplied cannot
be used, the power supply wiring must be 90
degrees centigrade in a metal cable and should
be completed by a qualified installer complying
with NFPA Standard No. 70 and local codes.
