  • Page 12: Chimney And Draft

    CHIMNEY AND DRAFT This furnace must be connected to a chimney certified for use with wood burning heating appliances, a 6-inch diameter chimney is recommended. The unit is not to be connected to a chimney flue serving another appliance. If the chimney draft exceeds 0.06 IN.W.C., a barometric draft control should be installed on the smoke pipe.
  • Page 13: Odour From The Paint

    ODOUR FROM THE PAINT It is normal that smoke and odours emanate from the unit when you first light it. It is recommended to burn it at high rate and ventilate the building until the odours disappear. The smoke is not toxic. This should be done before the ducts are connected to the furnace to prevent smoke dispersion in the house.
  • Page 14: Ash Grate

    ASH GRATE You must replace the ash grate if it is damaged and a replacement may be obtained from your dealer. ADDITIONAL FRESH AIR SUPPLY When the furnace and the chimney are completely cold, it may be necessary to provide fresh air by opening a door or a window for a few minutes while lighting the fire.
  • Page 15: Firewood

    10 FIREWOOD What is good firewood? Good firewood has been cut to the correct length for the furnace, split to a range of sizes and stacked in the open until its moisture content is reduced to 15% to 20%. 10.1 TREE SPECIES The tree species the firewood is produced from is less important than its moisture content.
  • Page 16: How To Dry Firewood

    10.4 HOW TO DRY FIREWOOD? Firewood that is not dry enough to burn is the cause of most complaints about wood burning appliances. Continually burning green or unseasoned wood produces more creosote and involves lack of heat and dirty glass door. See section 18 FURNACE MAINTENANCE for concerns about creosote.
