    CAUTION If you have any doubt concerning your ability to complete your installation in a professional-like manner after reading these instructions, you should obtain the services of an installer who is versed in all aspects as to the correct and safe installation. Do not use temporary, makeshift compromises during installation.
  • Page 6 WHY THE CORRECT FLUE SIZE IS IMPORTANT: 6” “Draft” is the force that moves air from the appliance up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions, and other factors.
  • Page 7 FLUE SYSTEM Existing Flue System If you have chosen a freestanding unit, this stove is designed to connect to an existing flue system, such as masonry or a pre-manufactured Class A flue system. If you have a masonry flue system, the inner liner should be inspected carefully for cracks;...

    Pre-Manufactured Flue System: In the past few years pre-manufactured flue systems have become very popular, because this type system is easily installed and, when done correctly, is very safe. There are many pre-manufactured flue systems on the market, and when making your choice it should be U.L., B.O.C.A.
  • Page 11 Installation on a Combustible Floor If the appliance is to be installed on a combustible floor or a combustible floor covering, it must be installed on a 1” thick non-combustible millboard floor protector or a durable equivalent, with a “R” factor of at least “1.5” (English units) or equivalent. The pad must be installed beneath the unit, extending 16”...

  • Page 14: Installation

    FREESTANDING PLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION The first problem you may encounter is getting your stove into your home -- all of our stove products are well constructed, which makes them rather heavy. Three to four adults can normally handle a unit, but we still recommend using a handcart. Never attempt to handle a heating product alone!!! The door and brick can be temporarily removed to lighten the unit (refer to Brick Layout).

    CHIMNEY REFER TO CHIMNEY AND CHIMNEY CONNECTOR MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT MANUFACTURER CONTACT YOUR LOCAL BUILDING AUTHORITY FOR APPROVED METHODS OF INSTALLATION 3 Ft. min. from 1. This appliance requires a masonry or pre- Roof Penetration manufactured chimney listed to UL103HT sized correctly.
  • Page 16: Operation

    OPERATION Do not use a grate or elevate the fire. Build the wood fire directly on the bricks. When the stove is used for the first time, solvents in the paint will smoke off as the stove “cures.” WOOD – This heater is designed to burn natural wood only.
  • Page 17: Glass Care

    GLASS CARE REPLACE GLASS ONLY WITH HIGH-TEMPERATURE ROBAX PYROCERAM OF THE PROPER SIZE AND THICKNESS. The following use and safety tips should be observed: Inspect the glass regularly for cracks or breaks. If you detect a crack or a break, extinguish the fire immediately, and contact your dealer or Customer Service at (800) 245-6489 for replacement (or log on to www.englanderstoves.com...
  • Page 18: Door Gasket

    The following steps should be followed for replacement of the door gasket: Ensure the appliance is not in operation and is thoroughly cooled. Remove the old door gasket and clean the gasket channel. Using an approved high-temperature gasket cement, apply a thin coat in the bottom of the channel.
  • Page 20: Creosote

    CREOSOTE When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors. These combine with moisture to form creosote. Creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire – as a result, creosote residue accumulates on the lining of the flue. If ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.
  • Page 21 IMPORTANT: HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS WORTH REVIEWING What is the correct way to start a fire?  You will need small pieces of dry wood (kindling) and paper. Use only newspaper or paper that has not been coated or that has had materials glued or applied to it. Never use coated or colored paper (such as advertising flyers).
  • Page 22 Why is there always a large quantity of thick black smoke in the firebox?  A large quantity of thick black smoke in the firebox is a possible indication that you have poor draft. Is it normal for soot to cover the glass at the beginning of a fire? ...

  • Page 30 Venting Guidelines:  ALWAYS install vent pipe in strict adherence to the instructions and clearances included with your venting  system.  •  DO NOT connect this wood stove to a chimney flue which also serves another appliance.  •  DO NOT install a flue pipe damper  or any other restrictive device in the exhaust venting system of this unit.  •  USE an approved wall thimble when passing through a wall and a ceiling support/fire stop when passing  through a ceiling.  •  INSTALL three sheet metal screws at every chimney connector joint.  •  AVOID excessive horizontal runs and elbows, as both will reduce the draft of the venting system and will  result in poor stove performance.  •  INSPECT your venting system often, to be certain it is clear of creosote, fly‐ash and other restrictions.  •  CLEAN the venting system as detailed in the maintenance section of this manual.  •  ADHERE to the 10‐3‐2 rule regarding chimney terminations.  •     INSTALL single wall chimney connector with the male end down to prevent creosote leakage.  Follow  double wall chimney connector manufacturer’s instructions regarding proper pipe installation.  WARNING: Venting system surfaces get HOT, and can cause burns if touched.  Noncombustible shielding or  guards may be required      The 10‐3‐2 Rule: The chimney system must terminate 3.0 ft above the point where it’s centerline passes  through the roof AND the chimney must terminate 2.0 ft. above part of the dwelling within a 10 ft. radius of  the chimney.    ‐ Operation and Maintenance – Please refer to the ‘Operation’ (Operating Instructions) and  Maintenance (including Ash Removal/Disposal) sections of your owner’s manual and follow the  guidelines listed therein for safety and for optimal emissions performance.  Additional Information:  Following the instructions in your owner’s manual for Building a Fire will ensure a proper fire, as well as  helping minimize visible emissions.   ...
  • Page 31  Season wood outdoors through the summer for at least 6 months before burning it. Properly seasoned  wood is darker, has cracks in the end grain, and sounds hollow when smacked against another piece of  wood.    Store wood outdoors, stacked neatly off the ground with the top covered.   Burn only dry, well‐seasoned wood that has been split properly.   Start fires with newspaper and dry kindling as discussed earlier in the manual.    Burn hot fires.    To maintain proper airflow, regularly remove ashes from your wood‐burning appliance into a metal  container with a cover and store outdoors.     Moisture Meter Information     Firewood is ready at 10‐25% moisture content.   Newly‐cut logs can have a moisture content (MC) of 80% or more, depending on species. Since wood  shrinks, and can also split, twist or otherwise change shape as it dries, most wood is dried before being  used. Air drying, or ‘seasoning,’ is the most common method used for cord wood. In most parts of the  United States, the minimum moisture content that can be generally obtained in air drying is about 12  to 15 percent. Most air‐dried material is usually closer to 20 percent moisture content when used   To test your firewood, simply push the pins into the wood and wait for a reading.  Remember, don't  just stick the meter into the ends of your firewood.  To get the most accurate reading, split the wood  and test the center.  The center of the log will contain the most moisture.     How Far Should I Drive Non‐Insulated Pins into Wood?    To full depth if possible. However, at moisture levels below 10%, it is usually sufficient to make good,  positive contact with the wood. At higher levels of moisture and especially if you have a steep gradient,  full penetration is a must.   ...
