Heating; Early Signs Of Overfired Furnace; Wood As Heating Fuel - PSG G1N 4R9 Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

HEATING

1. When loading the furnace, lower the kindled pieces of wood and place them at the center of the combustion
chamber before adding new logs.
2. Do not overload. Air must circulate freely in the upper part of the furnace in order to obtain an efficient operation of
the appliance. Please note that a small hot fire will produce much less residues than a large smouldering one.
IMPORTANT: DURING THE HEATING PROCESS, REMOVE THE ASHES AND WOOD THAT COULD
OBSTRUCT THE 1/4" (6.4 mm) HOLE LOCATED BELOW THE DOOR INSIDE THE FURNACE.
TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF A BACK DRAUGHT OPEN THE DOOR 1"
AND WAIT ABOUT 10 SECONDS BEFORE OPENING COMPLETELY.
THE PURPOSE IS TO STABILIZE THE PRESSURE INSIDE THE FURNACE.

EARLY SIGNS OF OVERFIRED FURNACE

1. Roaring fire.
2. Chimney connector is glowing red.
3. Extreme heat coming from the furnace. If this occurs,
completely, and wait until the glow has completely subsided.
ALWAYS KEEP THE DOOR AND THE ASH DRAWER CLOSED

WOOD AS HEATING FUEL

We recommend that you burn dry wood only.
There are two important factors to be considered when choosing a type of wood: the moisture content and the wood
density. Hardwood, such as maple, oak and beech will provide better results because of the high density and minimal
tar produced during combustion. It is highly recommended to use wood that has been dried at least six months. Do
not use coal as heating fuel in this appliance.
