The clearances will change depending on what kits are installed with your furnace. See the tables and diagram below to determine the clearances for your furnace. Standard unit (no additional kits) Dimension Inch...
  • Page 17 DUCTWORK INSTALLATION We strongly recommend that the hot air ductwork be installed by a home heating specialist. If doing the installation yourself, before you decide which installation will best suit your needs, consult a qualified heating technician and follow his recommendations as to the safest and most efficient method of installation.
  • Page 18 STAND ALONE INSTALLATION If installing this furnace as a stand alone unit, ensure all local codes and all instructions in this manual are followed, including clearance to combustibles, floor protector specifications and safety warnings. PARALLEL FURNACE INSTALLATION Installing this unit in parallel with another furnace (sharing the same ductwork) is not permitted in Canada. To install the new furnace in parallel with an existing furnace follow the instructions for series installation with a few additional requirements., listed below.
  • Page 19 ACCESSORY INSTALLATION BLOWER SECTION If the blower section is to be installed then ensure that all clearances are still maintained and that the blower section is securely and mechanically attached to the air intake on your new furnace. 1) Remove all packaging from the blower kit. 2) Mount legs on bottom of blower box.
  • Page 20 FRESH AIR KIT Unpack items. Take the intake cover (3 or 4) and insert tabs into provided slots on fresh air weldment (1). Note that you will have a left and right intake cover (3,4) and will only use one of them depending on the side you are covering up. Use two of the provided screws (#8) to fasten the intake cover (3 or 4) to the fresh air weldment (1), there are pre drilled holes provided.
  • Page 21 COLD AIR PLENUM Always consult a professional before attempting the installation. The furnace should be positioned in its desired location with the Blower Assembly / Filter Box installed and the starting section of the Chimney Connector ready to attached as prescribed in this manual.
  • Page 22 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION All electrical connections should be done by a qualified electrician It is recommended to connect the furnace to its own 15 amp 120 Volt circuit from the house power supply FAN LIMIT CONTROL Using the Honeywell mounting bracket, the fan limit control must be mounted to the supply air ductwork. Drill a 7/8” hole for the fan limit control sensor rod to pass through into the ductwork.
  • Page 23 CHIMNEY INSTALLATION CHIMNEY Your wood furnace may be hooked up with a factory built or masonry chimney, matching the diameter of the exhaust. If you are using a factory built chimney, it must comply with UL 103 or CSA-B365 standard; therefore it must be a Type HT (2100°F). It is extremely important that it be installed according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
  • Page 24 MASONRY CHIMNEY Ensure that a masonry chimney meets the minimum standards of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) by having it inspected by a professional. Make sure there are no cracks, loose mortar or other signs of deterioration and blockage. Have the chimney cleaned before the furnace is installed and operated.
  • Page 25 COMBUSTIBLE WALL CHIMNEY CONNECTOR PASS-THROUGHS Method A. 12” (304.8 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall Member: Using a minimum thickness 3.5” (89 mm) brick and a 5/8” (15.9 mm) minimum wall thickness clay liner, construct a wall pass-through. The clay liner must conform to ASTM C315 (Standard Specification for Clay Fire Linings) or its equivalent.
  • Page 26 CHIMNEY CONNECTOR Your chimney connector and chimney must have the same diameter as the furnace outlet. If this is not the case, we recommend you contact your dealer in order to insure there will be no problem with the draft. The furnace pipe must be made of aluminized or cold roll steel with a minimum thickness of 0.021”...
  • Page 27 FACTORY BUILT CHIMNEY When a metal prefabricated chimney is used, the manufacturer’s installation instructions must be followed. You must also purchase (from the same manufacturer) and install the ceiling support package or wall pass-through and “T” section package, firestops (where needed), insulation shield, roof flashing, chimney cap, etc.
  • Page 28 WOOD HEAT UTILIZATION The top down method of fire building is recommended for this appliance. After making sure that the stove air intake controls are fully open (completely pull-out towards you), Place the largest pieces of wood on the bottom, laid in parallel and close together. Smaller pieces are placed in a second layer, crossways to the first.
  • Page 29 OPERATION • Ignition problems • Creosote build-up causing chimney fires • Low energy yield • Blackened windows • Incomplete log combustion Smaller pieces of wood will dry faster. All logs exceeding 6” in diameter should be split. The wood should not be stored directly on the ground.
  • Page 30 WARNINGS • NEVER OVERFIRE YOUR FURNACE. IF ANY PART OF THE FURNACE STARTS TO GLOW RED, OVER FIRING IS HAPPENING. READJUST THE AIR INTAKE CONTROL AT A LOWER SETTING. • THE INSTALLATION OF A LOG CRADLE OR GRATES IS NOT RECOMMENDED IN YOUR WOOD FURNACE. BUILD FIRE DIRECTLY ON FIREBRICK.
  • Page 31 EFFICIENCIES Efficiencies can be based on either the lower heating value (LHV) or the higher heating value (HHV) of the fuel. The lower heating value is when water leaves the combustion process as a vapor, in the case of woodstoves the moisture in the wood being burned leaves the stove as a vapor.
  • Page 32 MAINTENANCE Your wood furnace is a high efficiency furnace and therefore requires little maintenance. It is important to perform a visual inspection of the furnace every time it is emptied, in order to insure that no parts have been damaged, in which case repairs must be performed immediately.
