INSTALLATION Additional Venting Information • Do not mix and match components from different pipe manufacturers when assembling your venting system (i.e. Do NOT use venting pipe from one manufacturer and a thimble from another). • We require a minimum chimney height of 15.0 ft. Chimney systems shorter than this may not create the amount of draft which is required to operate this wood burning unit.

INSTALLATION INSTALLATION INTO A MASONRY FIREPLACE Preparation Keep in mind that this type of a installation will make it difficult to change speeds on the blower frequently. We recommend picking a blower speed and sticking with it, since adjusting the blower will be difficult because of the tight installation.
• The outside air connection pipe protrudes from the bottom center of the stove; a kit is available from Englander designed for connecting this unit to outside combustion air. [Part No. AC-OAK3] • If it is not feasible to use the AC-OAK3 outside air hookup kit in your stove installation, other materials may be used, provided the following rules are followed: o The pipe used for outside air hookup must be metal, with a minimum thickness of .0209in.
FLOOR PROTECTION • This wood stove requires a U.L. listed (ULC if Canada) floor protector with a R factor of no less than 1.0, if the stove is to be installed on a combustible floor. If the floor the stove is to be installed on is already non-combustible (i.e.

OPERATION • The optional room air convection blower was designed to extract the maximum amount of heat from the stove, for the highest possible heat transfer into the room. Since the blower is so efficient at removing heat from the unit, it is very important to only operate the room air blower after a fresh wood load has been allowed to burn for at least thirty (30) minutes.

ultimately, an unrestricted source of outside combustion may be necessary for proper unit function. • If the unit is connected to outside air, be certain to monitor the exterior inlet to the combustion system for icing or snow accumulation. Allowing the outside air connection to become restricted will result in air starvation to the unit.
MAINTENANCE Daily Maintenance • Inspect the firebox for ash accumulation; remove excess ash and follow instructions below regarding disposal. Ash should not be allowed to accumulate in the stove to the point that it covers the dog box hole (see Brick Layout, page 34, for dog box location). The ash dump plug in the firebox may be removed and ashes raked into the ash pan below for temporary storage.
