WOOD

Fuel for the appliance must not be stored closer than the required clearances to combustibles (heat sensitive
material).
Burn only dry, clean unpainted wood that has been seasoned. It produces more heat and less soot or creosote.
Freshly cut wood contains about 50% moisture while after proper seasoning only about 20% of the water
remains. As wood is burned, this water boils off consuming energy that should be used in heating. The wetter
the wood, the less heat is given off and the more creosote is produced.
Both hardwood and softwood burn equally well in this appliance but hardwood is denser, will weigh more per
cord and burn a little slower and longer. Firewood should be split, stacked in a manner that air can get to all
parts of it and covered in early spring to be ready for burning that fall. Dry fi rewood has cracks in the end grain.
Cut the wood so that it will fi t horizontally, sideways, making for easier loading and less of a likelihood that the
wood will roll onto the glass.
DO'S
● Build a hot fi re
● Use only dry wood.
● Several pieces of medium sized wood are better than a few big pieces.
● Clean chimney regularly.
● Refuel frequently using medium sized wood.
● "Fine Tune" the air settings for optimum performance.
DONT'S
● Take ash out immediately. Let it accumulate to a depth of at least one inch. A good ash layer provides for a longer
lasting and better burning fi re.
● Burn wet wood.
● Close the door too soon or damper down too quickly.
● Burn one large log rather than two or three smaller, more reasonably sized logs.
● Burn at continually "low setting", if glass door is constantly blackened. This means the fi rebox temperature is too low.
