  • Page 4: General Information

    Abnormally cold weather could reduce the burn time. The FCOS2200D is a wood burning furnace - it can not be turned “off and on” to control the furnace temperature like gas or electric furnaces. Once the fire is established, it has to burn, until it burns itself out.
  • Page 5 GENERAL INFORMATION, cont. Before beginning your installation, consult with local authorities regarding the codes governing all such installations. DO NOT connect your Fire Chief OS2200D Wood Furnace to any flue that services ANY other appliance. Your Fire Chief OS2200D must be placed outdoors on a level, non-combustible base, preferably a 4’...
  • Page 6 GENERAL INFORMATION, cont. You must install the wall thermostat for the furnace to operate. When the wall thermostat calls for heat, the butterfly damper in the natural draft tube opens, allowing combustion air to flow into the firebox. This causes a hotter fire increasing the heat in the heat chamber.
  • Page 7 • ALWAYS have access to a backup generator, 2000 watt minimum. • USE Class “A” HT 2100 All Fuel 6” Chimney for your Fire Chief OS2200D. • NEVER use galvanized pipe in your flue connection. • INSPECT the flue periodically for structural integrity.
  • Page 8 INSTALLATION OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS You must install the electrical components on your OS2200D 1 - Install the blower brackets onto the blower housing using 4 - 1/4” bolts and screws; 2 - Attach the blower to the back of the furnace using the 4 - 1/4” bolts; 3 - Mount the blower housing cover with 8 - #10 screws;...
  • Page 9 (10”) round or 79 square inches. The Fire Chief OS2200D must be installed with a cold air return system. The system must be a minimum of twelve inches (12”) to readily transfer the cold air back to the furnace.

  • Page 10: Types Of Installation

    TYPES OF INSTALLATION Central Duct Connections: Installation should be done by a qualified professional. Maximum run 40’ - a duct run in excess of 40’ will greatly restrict the air flow and heat output - therefore, is not recommended. When connecting the OS2200D to a central duct system, avoid 90 degree elbows - as with any furnace, the more turns and branches in the ducting the less air flow delivery.
  • Page 11 8” central furnace instead of going Hot Air through the duct work. Split the Fire Chief Downdraft hot air supply of the OS2200D by Furnace OS2200D using a “Y” and install one branch...
  • Page 12 Ash Removal: Heat resistant gloves are recommended. Remove the ashes from your Fire Chief OS2200D at least once a day - or as often as necessary to ensure the ashes do not accumulate to the height of the grates. If ash build-up occurs at grate level, it will cause premature failure of the grates, voiding the warranty on the grates.
  • Page 13 FCOS2200D HEAT DUMP SYSTEM - HEAT FUSE LINK Your OS2200D has an automatic safety feature - Heat Dump Release System. In case of power failure, the Heat Dump Release will open the spring loaded lid when the internal furnace temperature reaches 370°. The heat sensitive fuse link, located within the top of the heat chamber, causes the lid to open, allowing excess heat to escape.
  • Page 14 Maintenance of the FCOS2200D At the beginning of each heating season, take time to thoroughly check your fur- nace and chimney system. Make sure there are no leaks where the metal panels are joined or at the caulk lines. Should you find a leak, hi-temp silicone will correct the problem.
