Owner's Manual — FireBird HD308
Designed and built for the rigors of the restoration industry, the Phoenix FireBird HD308 is the safest, most efficient, flexible,
and durable heat system made. The FireBird HD308 uses superior design to maximize heating capacity and minimize your
fuel cost, while its innovative safety features and system flexibility create revenue opportunities unavailable to competing
units.
The Phoenix FireBird HD308
• 308,000 BTU Capacity
• Atmospherically-Vented
• Stainless Steel and Aluminum Construction
• Diesel Powered
• Heavy Duty 1 HP Glycol Pump
• 120 Gallon Fuel Tank Capacity
This appliance is equipped with a Blocked-Flue shutoff device. If any
part of the flue-gas passageway in the combustion chamber, exhaust
pipe or rain cap should become blocked or adversely restricted, a
pressure sensing switch (Fig.24 pg.10) will break the electrical control
circuit and not allow the burner to run. There is a "Manual Reset"
button on this switch that will have to be reset before re-firing can
occur. If the burner fails to start after resetting once, call a qualified
service technician to clean the flue passageways and/or replace the
switch. Cleaning instructions can be found in Section (6.1 G) of the
Maintenance section of this manual.
