  • Page 13: Log Length

    3.2.3 LOG LENGTH Logs should be cut about 25 mm (1”) shorter than the firebox so they fit in easily. Pieces that are slightly too long make loading the wood fire very difficult. The most common standard length of firewood is 400 mm (16”). The pieces should be a consistent length, with a maximum of 25 mm (1”) variation from piece to piece.

  • Page 14: How To Dry Firewood

    3.2.5 HOW TO DRY FIREWOOD Firewood that is not dry enough to burn is the cause of most complaints about wood fires. The complaints usually involve a lack of heat and dirty door glass. Here are some things to consider in estimating drying time: firewood takes a long time to dry •...

    4.2.1 CONVENTIONAL FIRE STARTING The conventional way to build a wood fire is to bunch up 5 to 10 sheets of plain newspaper and place them in the firebox. Next, place 10 or so pieces of fine kindling on the newspaper. This kindling should be very thin;...

  • Page 18: Using Fire Starters

    4.2.4 USING FIRE STARTERS Many people like to use commercial fire starters instead of newspaper. Some of these starters are made of sawdust and wax and others are specialized flammable solid chemicals. Follow the package directions for use. Gel starter may be used but only if there are no hot embers present. Use only in a cold firebox to start a fire.

  • Page 19: Ash Removal

    4.3.2 ASH REMOVAL Ash should be removed from the firebox every two or three days of full time heating. Do not let the ash build up in the firebox because it will interfere with proper fire management. The best time to remove ash is after an overnight fire when the wood fire is relatively cool, but there is still some flue system draft to draw the ash dust into the wood fire and prevent it from coming into the room.

  • Page 20: Firing Each New Load Hot

    4.3.4 FIRING EACH NEW LOAD HOT Place the new load of wood on and behind the charcoal and not too close to the glass. Close the door and open the air control fully. Leave the air control fully open until the firebox is full of flames, the wood has charred to black and its edges are glowing red.

  • Page 21: Building Different Fires For Different Needs

    4.3.6 BUILDING DIFFERENT FIRES FOR DIFFERENT NEEDS Using the air control is not the only way to match the wood fire’s heat output to the heat demand. Your house will need far less heat in April than in July to be kept at a comfortable temperature. If you fill the firebox full in fall weather, you will either overheat the space or turn the wood fire down so much that the fire will be smoky and inefficient.
  • Page 22 4.3.6.3 High Output Fires for Cold Weather When the heat demand is high during cold weather, you’ll need a fire that burns steadily and brightly. This is the time to use your biggest pieces of hardwood fuel if you have it. Put the biggest pieces at the back of the firebox and place the rest of the pieces compactly.

  • Page 23: Maintaining Your Wood Heating System

    5 MAINTAINING YOUR WOOD HEATING SYSTEM 5.1 WOOD FIRE MAINTENANCE Your new wood fire will give many years of reliable service if you use and maintain it correctly. Some of the internal components of the firebox, such as firebricks, baffles and air tubes, will wear over time under intense heat.

  • Page 24: Door Adjustment

    5.1.3 DOOR ADJUSTMENT In order for your wood fire to burn at its best efficiency, the door must provide a perfect seal with the firebox. Therefore, the gasket should be inspected periodically making sure to obtain an air tight fit. Airtightness can be improved with a simple latch mechanism adjustment. To increase the pressure on the gasket, remove one washer (A).

  • Page 25: Replacing The Door Gasket

    5.1.4 REPLACING THE DOOR GASKET It is important to maintain the gasket in good condition. After a year or more of use, the door gasket will compress and become hard, which may allow air to leak past it. You can test the condition of the door gasket by closing and latching the door on a strip of paper.

  • Page 26: Cleaning And Painting The Wood Fire

    To replace the glass (C), remove the six screws and glass retainers (A) and the metal frames (B). Remove the damaged glass (C) and install the new one in place. Make sure you have a gasket around the replacement glass (see procedure above).

  • Page 27: How Often Should You Clean The Flue System

    5.2.2 HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU CLEAN THE FLUE SYSTEM? It is not possible to predict how much or how quickly creosote will form in your flue system. It is important, therefore, to check the build-up in your flue system monthly when getting used to the new wood fire until you determine the rate of creosote formation.

  • Page 28: Part B - Installation

    PART B – INSTALLATION It is very important to position the wood fire as close as possible to the flue system, and in an area that will favour the most efficient heat distribution possible throughout the house. The wood fire must therefore be installed in the room where the most time is spent, and in the most spacious room possible.

  • Page 29: Regulations Covering Wood Fire Installation

    6.2 REGULATIONS COVERING WOOD FIRE INSTALLATION IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR ENERZONE WOOD FIRE BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED SPECIALIST INSTALLER. IF ANY ELECTRICAL WORK IS REQUIRED, IT MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.

  • Page 30: Clearances To Heat-Sensitive Materials

    7 CLEARANCES TO HEAT-SENSITIVE MATERIALS It is of outmost importance that the clearances to heat-sensitive materials be carefully maintained upon installation of the wood fire you have selected. Refer to the tables below. No part of the wood fire or flue may be located closer to combustibles than the minimum clearance figures given.

  • Page 31: Floor Protector

    Clearances to heat-sensitive materials and floor protection 7.3 FLOOR PROTECTOR If the wood fire is to be installed on top of a combustible floor, it must be guarded by a non combustible material as shown on the dotted line area of the above figures. Install a 850 mm (W) x 1215 mm (D) floor protection of 6 mm of thickness with thermal conductivity of 0.8 m K/W per 4 mm thick.

  • Page 32: Reducing Wall And Ceiling Clearances Safely

    7.4 REDUCING WALL AND CEILING CLEARANCES SAFELY You may decrease the minimum clearances to heat-sensitive materials by installing heat radiation shields between the walls or the ceiling and the wood fire. These heat radiation shields must be installed permanently, and must be made of a heat-resistant or heat-tolerant material.

  • Page 34: The Flue System

    8 THE FLUE SYSTEM 8.1 GENERAL The flue system, made up of the flue system and the flue between the wood fire and the flue system, acts as the engine that drives your wood heating system. Even the best wood fire will not function safely and efficiently as intended if it is not connected to a suitable flue system.

  • Page 35: Masonry Flue Systems

    8.2.2 MASONRY FLUE SYSTEMS The wood fire may also be connected to a masonry flue system, provided the flue system complies with AS/NZS 2918 or with the construction rules found in the building code enforced locally. The flue system must have either a clay liner or a suitably listed stainless steel liner.

  • Page 36: The Relationship Between The Flue System And The House

    The top of the flue system should be tall enough to be above the air turbulence caused when wind blows against the house and its roof. The flue exit shall be located outside the building in which the appliance is installed so that: a) The flue pipe shall extend not less than 4.6 m above the top of the floor protector;...

  • Page 37: Why The Flue System Should Penetrate The Highest Heated Space

    8.4.2 WHY THE FLUE SYSTEM SHOULD PENETRATE THE HIGHEST HEATED SPACE When it is cold outside, the warm air in the house is buoyant so it tends to rise. This tendency of warm air to rise creates a slight pressure difference in the house. Called ‘stack effect’, it produces a slightly negative pressure low in the house (relative to outside) and a slightly positive pressure zone high in the house.

  • Page 40: Appendix 1: Installing The Door Overlay

    APPENDIX 1: INSTALLING THE DOOR OVERLAY Your Enerzone Solution 3.4 wood fire must be equipped with a door overlay. In order to install it, secure it to the door using 4 screws (#8 – 32 x 5/8’’ pan quadrex), supplied with the owner’s manual) as shown below.

  • Page 41: Appendix 2: Installing The Decorative Panels

    APPENDIX 2: INSTALLING THE DECORATIVE PANELS 1. Remove the rear screws (A) holding side shields (B) onto the wood fire. 2. Remove the protective film on the four decorative accents. 3. Install all four decorative accents from within the side shields. 4.

  • Page 42: Appendix 3: Installation And Use Of The Blower And Thermodisc

    APPENDIX 3: INSTALLATION AND USE OF THE BLOWER AND THERMODISC An optional blower (AC01010) can be installed on the back of the wood fire to increase the flow of air past heat exchange surfaces and to help circulate warm air in the room. When used regularly, the blower can provide a small increase in efficiency, up to 2 percent.
  • Page 43 Before turning-on blower, allow the wood fire reach operating temperature (approximately one hour). The increased airflow from the blower cools the firebox and could affect start-up combustion efficiency if the blower is turned on too early. You can also install a thermodisc (A) to enable the blower to start or stop automatically...
