Model No – CAWDFS12 USING YOUR HEATER WOOD SELECTION THE IMPORTANCE OF SEASONED HARDWOOD In our experience, there is very little difference between different types of hardwood (eg box gums, stringy bark etc). What is far more important is how well the wood is seasoned. When wood is first cut down, it has a very high moisture content.

Model No – CAWDFS12 USING YOUR HEATER CREATING THE PERFECT FIRE THE GOLDEN RULE In the early stages of a fire, smaller wood pieces and more air flow is the key. Bigger pieces of wood absorb more heat before they start to burn, so they tend to lower the temperature of the firebox.

WARNING: The door glass becomes extremely hot when the heater is operating. The heater should never be operated without the door glass. DO NOT use this heater if the glass is cracked. Contact your Cannon distributor to obtain a replacement glass.
