    The air wash system will perform at its best at medium burn rates. Some stove models will self clean by burning very hot fires but be sure not to over-fire the stove. If it glows red it is over-fired. Over-firing a stove also causes the window to soot up.

    This indicates the stove is too hot to load for a long burn. Also, do not load wood for a long burn on a deep bed of hot coals. Try stirring the coals a few minutes before loading the stove for a low burn to allow some of the unburned coals time to burn.

    OUTPUT: 2) Your stove needs to be seasoned (moisture removed from the steel and brick). Continue to burn a fire. It normally takes from one to three weeks of burning to season your stove (See Break-in Procedures on page 5).
