    2.2 Zone Heating and How to Make it Work for You Your new Stratford CF zero clearance wood inbuilt is a space heater, which means it is intended to heat the area it is installed in, as well as spaces that connect to that area, although to a lower temperature. This is called zone heating and it is an increasingly popular way to heat homes or spaces within homes.

    Wood should be split to a range of sizes, from about 75 mm to 150 mm in cross section. Having a range of sizes makes starting and rekindling fires much easier. Often, the firewood purchased from commercial suppliers is not split finely enough for convenient stoking. It is sometimes advisable to resplit the wood before stacking to dry.

  • Page 14: The Top Down Fire

    4.2.2 The Top Down Fire The top down fire starting method solves two problems with the conventional method: first, it does not collapse and smother itself as it burns; and second, it is not necessary to build up the fire gradually because the firebox is loaded before the fire is lit.

  • Page 15: Ash Removal

    When you burn in cycles, you rarely need to open the zero clearance wood inbuilt’s loading door while the wood is flaming. This is an advantage because there is more chance that smoke will leak from the zero clearance wood inbuilt when the door is opened as a full fire is burning. IF YOU MUST OPEN THE DOOR WHILE THE FUEL IS FLAMING, OPEN THE AIR CONTROL FULLY FOR A FEW MINUTES, THEN UNLATCH AND OPEN THE DOOR SLOWLY.

  • Page 16: Turning Down The Air Supply

    heats the firebox components so they reflect heat back to the fire, and • • heats the flue system so it can produce strong, steady draft for the rest of the cycle. Although it is important to fire each new load hot to prepare for a clean burn, do not allow the fire to burn at full intensity for more than a few minutes.
  • Page 17 4.3.6.1 Small Fires to Take the Chill Off the House To build a small fire that will produce a low heat output, use small pieces of firewood and load them crisscross in the firebox. The pieces should be only 76 mm to 102 mm in diameter. After raking the coals, you can lay two pieces parallel to each other corner to corner in the firebox and lay two more across them in the other direction.
  • Page 18 The table below provides a very general indication of the maximum burn cycle times you are likely to experience, based on firebox volume. FIREBOX VOLUME MAXIMUM BURN TIME < 0.042 cubic meter 3 to 5 hours 0.042 m to 0.056 m 5 to 6 hours 0.056 m to 0.071 m...

  • Page 19: Maintaining Your Wood Heating System

    5 MAINTAINING YOUR WOOD HEATING SYSTEM 5.1 Zero clearance wood inbuilt Maintenance Your new zero clearance wood inbuilt will give many years of reliable service if you use and maintain it correctly. Some of the internal components of the firebox, such as firebricks, baffles and air tubes, will wear over time under intense heat.

  • Page 20: Door Adjustment

    5.1.3 Door Adjustment In order for your zero clearance wood inbuilt to burn at its best efficiency, the door must provide a perfect seal with the firebox. Therefore, the gasket should be inspected periodically to check for a good seal. The gasket seal may be improved with a simple latch mechanism adjustment.

  • Page 21: Door Alignment

    5.1.4 Door Alignment To align, open the inbuilt’s door loosen pressures screws located on the lower and upper hinges of the door using a 5/64” (2mm) Allen key to free the adjustable hinge rods. Using a flat screwdriver, turn the adjustable hinge rods in the direction shown to adjust the doors.

  • Page 22: Replacing The Door Gasket

    5.1.5 Replacing the Door Gasket It is important to maintain the gasket in good condition. After a year or more of use, the door gasket will compress and become hard, which may allow air to leak past it. You can test the condition of the door gasket by closing and latching the door on a strip of paper.

  • Page 23: Replacing The Glass Or The Glass Gasket

    760 °C. If the glass breaks, it must be replaced with one having the same specification. Contact your Osburn dealer to obtain a genuine replacement part (see “replacement parts”, in appendix to get the proper part number).
  • Page 24 The gasket must be centred on the edge of the glass. To do this easily, peel back a section of the paper covering the adhesive and place the gasket on a table with the adhesive side up. Stick the end of the gasket to the middle of top edge of the glass, then press the edge of the glass down onto the gasket, taking care that it is perfectly centred on the gasket.

  • Page 25: Cleaning And Painting The Zero Clearance Wood Inbuilt

    5.1.7 Cleaning and Painting the Zero clearance wood inbuilt Do not attempt to clean or paint the zero clearance wood inbuilt when the unit is hot. Painted surfaces can be wiped down with a damp cloth. Plated surfaces may be scratched by abrasive cleaners. To maintain the finish at its original brilliance, use only a damp soft cloth to clean plated surfaces.

  • Page 26: Cleaning The Flue System

    5.2.3 Cleaning the Flue System Flue system cleaning can be a difficult and dangerous job. If you don’t have experience cleaning flue systems, you might want to hire a professional flue system sweep to clean and inspect the system for the first time. After having seen the cleaning process, you can decide if it is a job you would like to take on.

  • Page 27: Flue System Fire

    5.2.5 Flue system Fire Regular flue system maintenance and inspection can prevent flue system fires. If you have a flue system fire, follow these steps: 1. Close the zero clearance wood inbuilt door and the air intake controls; 2. Alert your family of the possible danger; 3.

    6.3 Zero clearance wood inbuilt Installation BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR FIREPLACE, YOU MUST INSTALL THE TWO SPACERS ON TOP AND THE TWO SPACERS ON THE BACK OF THE WOOD INBUILT. The spacers are in the firebox of the wood inbuilt and the screws are with the manual kit. Using the screws provided, install the two spacers (A) on top, (C) and (D) on each side and the two spacers (B) on the back of the fireplace.

  • Page 30: Installing The Mandatory Fresh Air Intake Kit

    6.3.2 Installing the Mandatory Fresh Air intake Kit During operation, the wood inbuilt requires fresh air for combustion. The Stratford CF requires the installation of a fresh air intake kit. THE INSULATED FLEXIBLE PIPE LENGTH SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT AND HAVE A CONFIGURATION TO AVOID CONDENSATION.
  • Page 31 Secure the fresh air intake adapter (A) on the wood inbuilt jacket using the 4 screws provided with the kit. Then, install the flexible pipe* (C) (not supplied) to the fresh air intake adapter (A) using one of the adjustable pipe clamps (B). Secure the other end of the pipe to the outside wall termination (D) using the second adjustable pipe clamp (B).
  • Page 32 To complete the installation, make a hole of 6 mm to 13 mm bigger than the insulate pipe diameter in the outside wall of the house at the chosen location. From outside, place the outside air inlet cap in the hole (open side down) and fasten the register to the wall, with screws as shown bellow.
