NTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing the Breckwell Mahogany Wood Burning Stove. To achieve the safest, highest efficiency, and most enjoyable performance from your stove, you must do three things: 1) Install it properly. 2) Operate it correctly. 3) Maintain it regularly. The purpose of this manual is to help you do all three. CAUTION: DO NOT USE MAKE‐SHIFT MATERIALS OR COMPROMISES DURING INSTALLATION. SERIOUS PROPERTY DAMAGE AND BODILY INJURY OR EVEN DEATH MAY RESULT. PLEASE read this entire manual thoroughly before you install and operate your new room heater and KEEP THIS MANUAL in a handy place for future reference. Failure to follow instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death. This stove has been independently tested and approved in accordance with the relevant portions of UL 1482‐2010 “Solid‐Fuel Type Room Heaters”, and ULC S627‐00 and ULC S628‐93. Consult with your local building code agency or fire officials, and insurance representative before you begin your installation to ensure compliance with installation inspection, local codes, including the need for permits and follow‐up inspections. The W3100FS and W3100I must be installed in accordance with the manufacture’s installations and with local codes. Burn your stove moderately hot during the first couple of fires to allow the paint to cure. Do not set anything on top of the stove and clear any dust or debris off of the stove before firing. The paint will become soft and gummy as the stove heats up and will harden as the stove cools. During the break‐in period, open the door frequently (every 5 – 10 minutes) to keep the door gasket from sticking to the paint as it cures. During the paint curing process, it will emit a non‐toxic smoke. Opening a window near the stove will help this to dissipate. Only High Temp Paint, available from your Breckwell dealer, should be used for touch‐ups. We recommend Stove Bright #6309 – Metallic Black. During the first few weeks, the stove will go through a process if eliminating moisture in the steel and firebrick. This moisture will reduce the initial heat output of the stove. Once the paint has cured, it will be necessary to build several hot fires to remove this moisture. For the first week or two, burn the stove with the damper wide open for an hour and use generous amounts of fuel. DO NOT OVERFIRE THE STOVE DURING THIS PROCESS. IF THE STOVE OR CHIMNEY BECOMES RED, REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF AIR COMING INTO THE STOVE. Commercial and industrial installations of Breckwell Wood Stoves should not be used since operational control is often not well managed in these settings. MAIL YOUR WARRANTY CARD TODAY ...

Chapter 3 Installation ‐O LOCK FF LATE NSTALLATION Whenever this appliance is installed with a direct connection a block‐off plate, or other noncombustible seal‐off device (e.g. damper adapter), will need to be installed. This device is used to seal the chimney, insuring no smoke enters the home and providing the chimney system with a seal to promote draft. The directions below detail the steps for construction and installation of a block‐off plate. 1. Determine a location for the block‐off plate at the top of the firebox below the damper area (make it high enough to allow installation of the connection pipe). The location should be level and in an area where it can be mounted easily. Measure the width at the rear ("A") and front ("B") of the firebox at the height where the block‐off plate will be installed (see the illustration below). Then measure the depth of the location where the block‐off plate will be installed ("C"). NOTE: Most masonry fireplaces have square fireboxes while certain zero‐clearance (metal) fireplaces often have domed firebox tops. This makes zero‐clearance block‐off plates more difficult to install. To simplify the procedure, insulation may be used to seal the rounded edges. 2. Make a cardboard template of the measurements, but add a 2" flange to each side. This flange will be used to mount the block‐off plate to the inside of the firebox. Bend the flanges downwards on the template and place it inside the fireplace. If the template fits correctly in its planned location, go to the next step. If it does not, make a new template with the appropriate corrections until it fits correctly. 3. With the template in place, mark the location of the flue (see “Dimensions” on page 6). This location approximates the center of the flue when the insert is in place (a slight offset may occur based upon insert and block‐off plate placement). Remove the template and cut a 6 1/4" diameter hole centered on this mark. 4. Make the block‐off plate of 24 gage or thicker steel to match the template. Drill two holes in each flange for mounting the plate. 5. Mount the block‐off plate using masonry screws. NOTE: Use sheet metal screws on zero‐clearance (metal) fireplaces (screws need only be long enough to penetrate the first layer of metal). 6. Insulate the block‐off plate using high‐temperature fiberglass insulation (Ceri‐blanket® or equivalent) and furnace cement (allow the cement to dry for at least 24 hours before burning). ...

Chapter 4 Operation PERATING TOVE For best efficiency and heat output, burn dry, seasoned wood only. Never burn wet wood, driftwood, wood that has been in salt water, trash, cardboard, coal, rubbish, etc. Burning fuel other than dry, seasoned wood may be illegal in some areas. Seasoned wood is wood that has been cut, split, and stored in dry, covered area in a manner that allows for free airflow around the wood for an extended period of time (6 months minimum). NOTE: During normal operation the door must remain closed. Failure to operate the stove properly can result in smoke entering the home, increased safety hazards, and may result in serious bodily injury or death. Building a Fire 1. Never use gasoline, gasoline‐type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or other similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a fire in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while in use. 2. Do not use a grate or any other means of elevating the fire. Always build the fire on the surface of the firebrick. Stack seasoned wood in a manner that allows sufficient airflow around the wood and no closer than 3” to the secondary air tubes and 1” from glass. 3. Pull the damper rod completely out. The damper controls the burn rate and amount of air coming in to the stove. Pulling it out allows more air in to the stove, a higher burn rate. Pushing it in lessens the air coming into the stove, a lower burn rate. 4. Crumple up some paper and place on firebrick between the front and center of brick. Cover the paper with several pieces of kindling. For a cold chimney, one or two extra pieces of paper may be placed on top of the kindling to help establish draft. 5. Light the paper and allow enough time for the kindling to get burning. Depending on the natural draft of your stove, the door may need to be left open slightly during this startup process. 6. Once the kindling is burning well more wood may be added. For best results, use gradually increasing sizes of wood before adding larger pieces for longer burns. Always allow enough time for the wood to get burning well before adding larger pieces of wood. When loading wood, always be careful not to dislodge the upper brick baffle. 7. After establishing the desired fire (about 15‐20 minutes), be sure to check the exhaust for excessive amounts of smoke. Excessive smoke indicates an improper burn rate (damper setting). Readjust if necessary and recheck again after 5‐10 minutes. 8.
The following are some tips for getting the most out of your stove: 1. Always thoroughly preheat your stove before slowing the burn rate (closing the damper). 2. Always operate your stove as much as possible in the low to medium burn rates. 3. Temperature measurements taken from the hottest point on the stove, on the top or face, can be used to repeat burn rates. 4. Do not continually operate your stove with the damper wide open. This can damage your stove and chimney. It is a waste of wood, and is very inefficient causing excessive heat loss through the chimney. 5. Periodically go outside and check your chimney. More than a very small amount of smoke indicates wasted heat, creosote build up and pollution. 6. Do not set the damper so low as to completely extinguish the flames in the firebox. Check for at least some flames 20 minutes after setting the damper. Adjust if needed. Achieving Long, Clean Burns It is important to realize that stove technology and design have changed over the years, as well as proper operation. In older stoves the mind set was to get the stove as hot as possible before setting the damper on low for long burns. This no longer applies to your new Breckwell stove. It is still important to have the stove hot enough to burn efficiently, but this will now take less pre‐heating than older stoves. After some initial experimentation, you will be able to determine the optimum operating temperatures for various burn rates. Breckwell wood stoves are emission tested to EPA standards with the damper fully closed for low burn rates Whether or not you should burn your stove with the damper completely closed will depend on the following factors: ∙ Moisture content and type of wood. ∙ How you load your wood. ∙ Your chimney system. ∙ The temperature of the stove. After thoroughly pre‐heating the stove, using a stove/chimney thermometer, monitor the temperature on the top of the stove. Use 325 degrees as a starting point. When the top reaches the target temperature, close the damper all the way in. If the flames go completely out, open the damper all the way and then slowly close until there is a small amount of flame. Remember to check the stove in twenty minutes after adjusting the damper as ...

Chapter 5 Maintenance & Troubleshooting & S ROPER TORAGE Use only dry, natural wood in your stove. Dry, well seasoned wood will provide a good clean burn with plenty of heat and low smoke with proper airflow. Dry wood is the key to experiencing the best performance. Using green or unseasoned wood will potentially increase creosote formation and reduce your stoves efficieny. Testing Wood Moisture Split wood stored in a dry area will be fully dry within a year. This insures dry well seasoned wood. If purchasing wood for immediate use, test the wood with a moisture meter. Some experienced wood burners can measure wood moisture by knocking pieces together and listening for a clear "knock" and not a "thud". Why Dry Wood is Key Wet wood, when burned, must release water stored within the wood. This cools the fire, creates creosote, and hampers a complete burn. Ask any experienced wood burner and he or she will agree: dry wood is crucial to good performance. Wood Cutting and Storage Cut wood to length and chop into quarters. Store the wood off the ground in a covered area. Allow for airflow around the wood to dry the wood. CAUTION: DO NOT STORE WOOD WITHIN MINIMUM CLEARANCES OF THE STOVE OR WITH THE SPACE REQUIRED FOR CHARGEING AND ASH REMOVEL. FAILURE TO MAINTAIN PROPER CLEARANCES MAY RESULT IN A DANGEROUS CONDITION.
