Page 419
PI29 CHIMNEY CONNECTIONS Page 12 RECOMMENDED CHIMNEY HEIGHTS Every installation is unique, especially when considering geographical location. As previously mentioned, maintaining su cient draft is of utmost importance, but this can be a challenge as draft can be heavily in uenced by topographical and geographical phenomena. The understanding of pressure planes and the stack e ect are imperative in planning and executing a successful installation.
PI29 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Page 13 IF THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED OR OPERATED, A HOUSE FIRE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY MAY RESULT. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND PERSONAL INJURY, FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. CONTACT LOCAL BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR AREA.
Page 421
PI29 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Page 14 5. Working through the opening above the appliance (where the upper shroud panel will be installed) attach the ue liner and appliance connector to the appliance ue collar.

PI29 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Page 15 DOOR INSTALLATION AND CHANGE-OUT To install the door upon appliance installation or to change it out, follow these steps: 1. Align bottom door hinge hole with bottom rebox hinge pin. (Fig. 4) Note: Door is heavy, hold rmly. 2.
PI29 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 16 YOUR FIRST FIRE! The following pages contain information on the operation of the major components on your Blaze King appliance. Please take the time to read through this section as it will give you a better understanding of how your appliance works.
PI29 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 17 SELECTING WOOD It takes a great deal of energy to evaporate the moisture contained in green or wet wood and that energy will not be heating your home. Green or wet wood will also greatly increase creosote issues. To ensure that your wood fuel has a moisture content of 20% or lower, only use seasoned wood that has been split, stacked, and protected from rain or snow for at least 24 months.
PI29 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 18 BYPASS DOOR Your catalytic wood burning appliance is tted with a bypass door which allows exhaust from the re to temporarily bypass the catalytic combustor. The bypass door is located inside the dome of the rebox at the top of the appliance.
PI29 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 19 LIGHTING THE FIRE NOTE: As you heat up the appliance for the rst time, the paint will go through a curing process and will give o a strong odor coupled with smoke. To minimize the inconvenience, burn the stove at a low temperature setting for several hours.
PI29 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 20 RELOADING PROCEDURE WHEN PREPARING TO RELOAD, IF THE NEEDLE ON THE CATALYTIC THERMOMETER IS STILL IN THE ACTIVE ZONE, FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE BELOW; IF THE NEEDLE HAS DROPPED INTO THE INACTIVE ZONE, REFER BACK TO THE “LIGHTING THE FIRE” PROCEDURE ON THE PREVIOUS PAGE.
PI29 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Page 21 OPTIMAL LOW BURN THERMOSTAT SETTING Your Blaze King appliance was tested and certi ed in accordance to the New Source Performance Standards for Residential Wood Heaters. During this test series, the low burn rate of the unit was determined by setting the thermostat knob to a position that yielded the lowest burn rate achievable.
PI29 CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR Page 22 DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITHOUT THE CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR INSTALLED. DOING SO WILL LEAD TO EXCESSIVE SMOKE AND TEMPERATURES THAT COULD RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM. ONLY BURN SEASONED WOOD. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY DAMAGE THE COMBUSTOR AND WILL VOID ALL WARRANTIES.
PI29 CATALYST MONITORING cont. CATALYST MONITORING cont. CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR Page 23 DO NOT PERFORM ANY CLEANING UNTIL THE FIRE IS OUT AND THE APPLIANCE IS COOL. HOT ASH IN A VACUUM CLEANER BAG COULD MELT THE VACUUM AND COULD RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM.
Page 431
PI29 CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR Page 24 3. There are metal tabs across the bottom and on either side of the combustor. Using a at blade screwdriver or pocket knife blade, slide the tip in between the metal tab on the left side of the combustor and the steel dome of the stove (the dome is the housing that encases the combustor).
PI29 CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR Page 25 7. Once the combustor is fully reinserted into the opening of the dome housing, replace the ame shield. Note the ame shield sides are shaped like a triangle. The point of the triangle should face down to install correctly. Do not operate your appliance without the ame shield in place.
PI29 CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR Page 26 COMBUSTOR TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM: CREOSOTE PLUGGING Possible Cause: The combustor is coated with creosote burning material that produces substantial char and y-ash. Solution: Only burn dry, seasoned wood. Do not burn materials such as garbage, gift wrap, or cardboard. Possible Cause: Burning wet, pitchy wood or burning large amounts of small diameter wood with the bypass door closed without the catalytic thermometer needle in the ACTIVE zone.
Page 434
PI29 CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR Page 27 PROBLEM: COMBUSTOR MASKING Possible Cause: The combustor is coated with a layer of y-ash or soot from burning material that produces substantial char and y-ash. Solution: When the appliance is cool to touch, clean the front face of the combustor with a soft-bristled brush or vacuum lightly (refer to COMBUSTOR CLEANING for proper procedure).
PI29 MAINTENANCE Page 28 TO PREVENT SERIOUS BURNS, DO NOT PERFORM ANY MAINTENANCE UNTIL THE APPLIANCE IS COOL. APPLIANCE SURFACES, INCLUDING THE GLASS AND ANY ATTACHED COMPONENT, WILL REMAIN HOT FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME AFTER THE FIRE HAS BEEN PUT OUT. RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE It is strongly recommended to complete the following tasks on a regular basis throughout the heating season: Visually inspect Catalytic Combustor and clean as required (see “COMBUSTOR CLEANING”)
PI29 MAINTENANCE Page 29 LOADING DOOR TENSION ADJUSTMENT To tighten the loading door seal, use a 9/16” wrench to loosen the retainer nut threaded onto the latch catch on the outer right face of the rebox. Once loose, tighten the nut on inside rebox (also threaded onto the latch catch) to secure the latch catch in a position closer to the rebox.
PI29 MAINTENANCE Page 30 DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE IF THE DOOR GASKET IS MISSING OR DAMAGED. OVER-FIRING MAY OCCUR WHICH CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE OR IGNITE CREOSOTE IN THE CHIMNEY WHICH COULD LEAD TO A HOUSE FIRE CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM. DOOR GASKET PAPER TEST Perform this test when inspecting or replacing loading door gasket: 1.
PI29 MAINTENANCE Page 31 DOOR GLASS CLEANING The best way to keep the glass clean is to leave the appliance on high burn for a period of time after each reloading The moisture which is driven from a new load of wood contributes much of the creosote on the inside of the glass.
PI29 MAINTENANCE Page 32 VENTING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE The entire chimney system must be cleaned and inspected regularly, especially during the coldest months of the burn season. The most e cient method to clean the chimney is to “sweep” it using a brush. Brush downwards so soot and creosote residues will come o the inner surface and fall to the bottom of the chimney where they can be removed easily.
PI29 TROUBLESHOOTING Page 33 Your Blaze King is designed to allow a wide selection of heat output levels. If you begin to lose control of the amount of heat the stove is emitting, determine the cause early so that major problems may be avoided. The six major needs of a well-controlled re are: Knowledgeable operator.
Page 441
PI29 TROUBLESHOOTING Page 34 PROBLEM: Too much heat. CAUSE SOLUTION Bypass door left open. Close the bypass door. Thermostat set too high. Lower thermostat setting. Loading door gasket leaking, admitting excess air Replace door gasket and/or adjust door. See “GASKET into rebox.
Page 442
PI29 TROUBLESHOOTING Page 35 Combustor plugged or coated. Clean combustor. See “CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR TESTING” Combustor not functioning. Check and test combustor. If needed replace combustor. See “CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR, REPLACING” Thermostat not operating properly. Consult your blaze King Dealer. Bypass door leaking or not closing completely. Inspect and clean area around bypass doors.
