Page 4: Introduction
INTRODUCTION To get maximum performance from your PSG furnace, keep in mind the following: • Comply with local codes (if in doubt, contact your local heating specialist). • Refer to the furnace’s certification label and your instruction manual for minimum installation clearances. •... -
Page 5: Odour From The Paint
-THE ASH DRAWER GET VERY HOT. -DO NOT MANIPULATE WITH BARE HANDS. ODOUR FROM THE PAINT It is normal that a smoke odor emanate from the unit when you first light it. It is recommended to burn it at high rate and ventilate the building until the odour resorbs. -
Page 6: Smoke Detector
SMOKE DETECTOR We highly recommend the use of a smoke detector. It must be installed at least 15 feet (4,57 m) from the appliance in order to prevent undue triggering of the detector when reloading. ASH DRAWER Your appliance is equipped with an ash drawer to collect ashes produced by the combustion of wood. This drawer must not be left open during combustion as this will cause over firing and serious damage to the furnace. -
Page 7: Clearances To Combustible Materials
CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS N.B. This appliance must be installed in accordance with the instructions on the unit’s certification. MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS FOR PSG FURNACES N.B. THE AIR RETURN CONDUITS SHOULD BE AT LEAST EQUAL TO THE COLD AIR PLENUM DIMENSIONS. -
Page 8: Damper
For a proper installation, follow the advices below: 1. All the joints of the evacuation pipe must be secured, using three screws. Make sure that each screw goes through the inner walls of both connectors (male and female). See pictures below showing a male-female coupling. PROPER INSTALLATION 2. -
Page 9: Electrical Connection
NOTE: It is recommended to install an outside air inlet of minimum 4” diameter in the room where the heating appliance is installed (see drawing below). To do so, it is preferable to choose a wall which is not exposed to extreme winds, according to the conditions surrounding your house. -
Page 10: Electric Element
The switch located on the fan limit control activates the blower at high speed, in either automatic or manual (continuous operation) modes. The switch located on the electric unit controls low speed operation, in either ON (continuous operation) or OFF modes (PSG 3000 or PSG 4000 models only). -
Page 11: Thermostat
OUTSIDE VIEW OF THE ELECTRIC ELEMENT THERMOSTAT The thermostat must be installed on an inside wall in a location where it is not likely to be affected by the draft coming from an air outlet. It must be installed at a minimum of 55 inches above the floor. N.B. -
Page 12: Operating Instructions
4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Control system On the wood furnaces only, the thermostat controls the air inlet damper. When the thermostat calls for heat, the damper opens and the fire burns up. When the furnace gets hot enough, the combined limit control activates the blower motor at the speed selected for wood heating. -
Page 13: Heating
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. -
Page 14: Chimney Fires
Whenever a high rate of smoke is noticed in the room, you must: 1. Open doors and windows. 2. Make sure the furnace door is closed as well as the damper (if necessary, lower the thermostat starting point or undo the chain of the damper and close manually the barometric draft control). 3. -
Page 15: Maintenance
5. MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE OF THE EXCHANGERS The evacuation pipe and the exchangers should be inspected regularly during the burning season. Using the scraper, clean the three exchanger pipes. INSTRUCTIONS Wait until fire is completely out before cleaning. Remove the smoke pipe connector from the furnace. Inspect the furnace’s heat exchangers (rectangular tubes) through the smoke outlet for creosote accumulation. -
Page 16: Filters
FILTERS The furnace must not be operated without the filters. In order to operate a slow combustion heating system efficiently and safely, you have to ensure a regular maintenance. This means that the chimney, the joints and the flue must be in good condition. The air filters must be replaced regularly. Use the same size and same type as the original filters. -
