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). -
Page 17: Masonry Chimney
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. When connecting the furnace through a combustible wall to a masonry chimney, special methods are needed as explained in the “Combustible Wall Chimney Connector Pass-Throughs”... -

Page 23: Operation
OPERATION NOTICE: To minimize the risk of smoke spillage when opening the door with a fi re in your furnace, crack the door open no more than 1” and wait for at least 10 seconds before opening it more to allow pressure stabilization inside the furnace. Smaller pieces of wood will dry faster. - Page 24 HEATING WITH YOUR WOOD FURNACE 1) Spread the fi re and coals evenly towards the center of the combustion chamber before loading your furnace fully or adding more wood. 2) Avoid overfi lling the combustion chamber. Air must be allowed to circulate freely through the upper portion of the combustion chamber for the stove to perform best.

Page 25: Ash Disposal
If a chimney or creosote fi re occurs, close all dampers immediately. Wait for the fi re to go out and the heater to cool, then inspect the chimney for damage. If no damage results, perform a chimney cleaning to ensure there is no more creosote deposits remaining in the chimney. -
Page 26: Over Firing
SMOKE AND CO MONITORS Burning wood naturally produces smoke and carbon monoxide(CO) emissions. CO is a poisonous gas when exposed to elevated concentrations for extended periods of time. While the modern combustion systems in heaters drastically reduce the amount of CO emitted out the chimney, exposure to the gases in closed or confi ned areas can be dangerous. -
Page 27: Maintenance
MAINTENANCE Your wood furnace is a high effi ciency 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. -
