Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 2.2 ZONE HEATING AND HOW TO MAKE IT WORK FOR YOU Your new Inspire 2000 wood inbuilt is a space heater, which means it is intended to heat the area it is installed in, as well as spaces that connect to that area, although to a lower temperature. This is called zone heating and it is an increasingly popular way to heat homes or spaces within homes.

Page 12: How To Dry Firewood
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual Wood should be split to a range of sizes, from about 75 mm to 150 mm (3” to 6”) in cross section. Having a range of sizes makes starting and rekindling fires much easier. Often, the firewood purchased from commercial suppliers is not split finely enough for convenient stoking.

Page 15: Cold Hand
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 4.1 COLD HAND The cold hand is a handle, supplied with the insert. It allows to open the door and avoid burns. To open, insert the cold hand into the opening on the right side of the insert. Pull on the cold hand to open the door.
Page 16: Lighting Fires
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 4.3 LIGHTING FIRES Each person who heats with wood develops their own favorite way to light fires. Whatever method you choose, your goal should be to get a hot fire burning quickly. A fire that starts fast produces less smoke and deposits less creosote in the flue system.
Page 17: Two Parallel Logs
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 4.3.3 TWO PARALLEL LOGS Place two spit logs in the firebox. Place a few sheets of twisted newspaper between the logs. Now place some fine kindling across the two logs and some larger kindling across those, log cabin style.
Page 18: Ash Removal
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 4.4.2 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.
Page 19: Firing Each New Load Hot
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 4.4.4 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 20: Blower Operation
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 4.5 BLOWER OPERATION Allow the wood inbuilt to reach operating temperature (approximately one hour), before turning on the blower, since increased airflow from the blower will remove heat and affect the start-up combustion efficiency.
Page 21 Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 4.5.1.2 Long Lasting Low Output Fires Sometimes you will want to build a fire to last up to eight hours, but don’t need intense heat. In this case use smaller pieces of hardwood and place the logs compactly in the firebox so the pieces are packed tightly together.
Page 22: Maintaining Your Wood Heating System
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 5 MAINTAINING YOUR WOOD HEATING SYSTEM 5.1 WOOD INBUILT MAINTENANCE Your new wood inbuilt 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 23: Door Adjustment
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 5.1.2 DOOR ADJUSTMENT For your wood inbuilt 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.
Page 24: Replacing The Door Gasket
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual The door angle can also be adjusted by unscrewing the nuts (F) and sliding the bracket (G) towards the left or the right. 5.1.3 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.
Page 25: Replacing The Glass Or The Glass Gasket
1400º F. If the glass breaks, it must be replaced with one having the same specification. Contact your Osburn dealer to obtain a genuine replacement part (see Exploded Diagram and Parts List, in appendix 6 to get the proper part number).
Page 26 Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual To replace the glass gasket, center the gasket on the edge of the glass. To do this easily, peel back a section of the paper covering the adhesive and place the gasket on a table with the adhesive side up.
Page 27: Cleaning And Painting The Wood Inbuilt
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual Reinstall the glass, following the “Replace the glass” steps above. Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. Do not use the wood inbuilt if the glass is broken. To change the glass, perform the same operation described above.
Page 28: Cleaning The Flue System
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual Contact your local municipal or provincial fire authority for information on how to handle a flue system fire. Have a clearly understood plan to handle a flue system fire. 5.2.3 CLEANING THE FLUE SYSTEM Flue system cleaning can be a difficult and dangerous job.
Page 29: Part B - Installation
The Inspire 2000-I inbuilt can only be installed with the Inspire 2000 zero-clearance kit (sold separately). See installation instructions provided with the kit.

Page 35: The Flue System
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 9 THE FLUE SYSTEM 9.1 GENERAL The flue system, made up of the flue system and the flue between the wood inbuilt and the flue system, acts as the engine that drives your wood heating system. Even the best wood inbuilt will not function safely and efficiently as intended if it is not connected to a suitable flue system.
Page 36: Flue Liner Installation
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual ATTENTION INSTALLER: When positioning the unit in a fireplace opening prior to the flue installation, install the wood inbuilt into the opening until the top lip of air jacket is flush with fireplace facing.
Page 37: If The Flue Liner Does Not Align With The Wood Inbuilt's Flue Outlet
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual B) Your dealer may offer a liner fastening system, sold separately. Follow the installation instructions provided with the liner fastening system. 9.4.2 IF THE FLUE LINER DOES NOT ALIGN WITH THE WOOD INBUILT’S FLUE OUTLET You can install a liner offset adapter, sold separately.
Page 38: Minimum Flue System Height
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 9.5 MINIMUM FLUE SYSTEM HEIGHT Flue heights and lengths from AS/NZS 2918:2001 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.
Page 39: The Relationship Between The Flue System And The House
Osburn Inspire 2000-I Inbuilt Installation and Operation Manual 9.6 THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE FLUE SYSTEM AND THE HOUSE Because the flue system is the engine that drives the wood heating system, it must have the right characteristics. The signs of bad system design are cold back drafting when there is no fire in the wood inbuilt, slow kindling of new fires, and smoke roll-out when the door is opened for loading.
