READ THE MANUAL THOROUGHLY BEFORE OPERATING THE FURNACE FURNACE MODELS INCLUDED IN THIS MANUAL CADDY WOOD AND COMBINED 15 Kw, 18 Kw, 20 Kw, 25 Kw and UH-Caddy Read these instructions carefully before installing and operating your furnace. CONGRATULATIONS! You have purchased one of the finest wood or combined furnaces available on the market.
SECTION A: WOOD OR WOOD/ELECTRIC COMBINED FURNACES. INTRODUCTION Take note that this furnace operates like an EPA wood burning stove. This applies to the lighting, the embers and the minimum combustion air intake which depends on the type and the grade of the combustible. This model line is certified as meeting the emissions limits in 40 C.F.R.
W A R N I N G -THE ASH DRAWER AND EXCHANGERS ACCESS PANEL GET VERY HOT. -DO NOT MANIPULATE WITH BARE HANDS. ODOUR FROM THE PAINT It is normal that smoke and odours emanate from the unit when you first light it. It is recommended to burn it at high rate and ventilate the building until the odours resorb.
The glass is made of Pyroceram type of glass, 3/16” – (5 mm) thick. Do not operate your furnace with a broken glass, as this could seriously damage your furnace. You can purchase a replacement glass from your PSG dealer. ASH DRAWER Your furnace is equipped with an ash drawer to collect ashes produced by the combustion of wood.
3. APPLIANCE INSTALLATION UNIT LOCATION The furnace must be installed where outside air supply is sufficient for proper combustion. In airtight houses, it might be necessary to install an outside air inlet (see details in: COMBUSTION AIR). The furnace must be positioned so that the connector is as short as possible; minimize the use of 90 elbows.
FLUE AND BAROMETRIC DAMPER CONNECTION Before connecting the stove pipe, make sure you have removed the accessories from the flue pipe as the scraper, shovel and the poker. The flue outlet on the Caddy furnace is 6” in diameter and the wood only or wood/electric models may be installed with a 6”...
DAMPER If the draft exceeds -0.06 w.c., a barometric damper must installed. The barometric damper must be adjusted so that the maximum draft measured at the furnace outlet is limited to -0.06 in. w.c. Please note that a draft higher than -0.06 w.c.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION The following instructions do not supersede the local code. CADDY-WOOD ONLY On the wood Caddy, the fan limit control is installed with the support provided, on the left side of the appliance, (four holes are pre-drilled on the edge of the furnace, use the two that are closer to the front of the furnace), and connected to the electrical box along with the transformer.
CADDY WOOD/ELECTRIC The high limit control is a manual reset thermostatic captor that is located inside the electric unit (see WIRING DIAGRAMS). The electric unit must be connected as shown on the diagram. Install the wood fan limit control on the support provided, at the determined location.
OUTSIDE VIEW OF THE ELECTRIC ELEMENT THERMOSTAT The thermostat must be installed on an inside wall in a location where it is not likely to be affected by the draft coming from an air outlet. It must be installed at a minimum of 55 inches above the floor. N.B.
The chain that links the air inlet damper to the motor must have a play of 1/8 inch. When there is no call for heat, the air inlet damper must be completely closed and the chain must be affixed to the damper motor at the“8 o’clock” position.
EARLY SIGNS OF OVERFIRED FURNACE: 1. Roaring fire. 2. Chimney connector is glowing red. 3. Extreme heat coming from the furnace. If this occurs, DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR, shut-off the air inlet opening completely, and wait until the glow has completely subsided. ALWAYS KEEP THE DOOR AND THE ASH DRAWER CLOSED (except for lighting and maintenance).
5. MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE OF THE EXCHANGERS The evacuation pipe and the exchangers should be inspected regularly during the burning season. Easy access is provided (without the use of tools): simply unscrew the wing nut on the exchangers access door. See pictures below. Wing nut Insulation Exchangers cover...
CHIMNEY MAINTENANCE The most efficient method to sweep the chimney is using a hard brush. Brush downwards so soot and creosote residues will come off the inner surface and fall at the bottom of the chimney where they can be removed easily. The chimney must be checked regularly and if creosote has accumulated, it must be removed without delay.
6. REPLACEMENT PARTS Your PSG furnace is designed to burn clean and requires little maintenance. It’s recommended to conduct a visual inspection at least once a month to uncover any damage to the unit. Any defect must be repaired without delay using genuine PSG replacement parts.

GENERAL NOTES This instruction manual treats mainly of the oil burning unit of your wood/oil combination furnace. For any additional information concerning the wood burning furnace, please consult your installation and operation instructions manual for wood and wood/electricity furnaces. To obtain the optimal efficiency, follow the advices below regarding the installation and operation of your WOOD/OIL combination furnace.
BURNER PUMP The burner is equipped with a single stage pump. When the pump is connected to a single feeder pipe, a maximum rise of 8 feet is allowed. This height is measured from the tank outlet level to the burner inlet. When the rise is more than 8 feet and not exceeding 10 feet, a by-pass plug (provided with the burner) must be inserted in the pump and an oil return pipe must be installed.

FIGURE #1 SERVO-MOTOR FAN LIMIT INSTALLATION ON PSG UH -CADDY MODELS The wood fan limit control must be installed with the mounting bracket, in the warm air plenum on the left hand side of the appliance; four holes are pre-drilled on the edge to match the holes on the mounting bracket (see fig.
FIGURE #3 HOLES FOR FAN/LIMIT SUPPORT ELECTRICAL WIRING The whole wiring from the distribution panel to the heating unit shall comply with the applicable electrical standards and local codes. The unit should be connected to its own 15 amp/120VAC electric circuit (see electrical diagram on page 18).
COMBUSTION SAFETY CONTROL The AFG type oil burner is equipped with an electronic control (# R7184B1032) including a pre-purge function and a new more durable drive motor. PRE-PURGE When there is a call for heat, the burner’s fan will run for 15 seconds before the actual ignition takes place to vent the combustion chamber and generate a proper draft.
COMBUSTION VERIFICATION PROCEDURE: A- DRILL A 9/32" DIAMETER HOLE IN THE EVACUATION PIPE APPROXIMATELY 18" FROM THE OUTLET. B- CLOSE THE DOOR AND THE AIR INTAKE(S) OF THE WOOD BURNING FURNACE. C- LIGHT THE BURNER FOR AT LEAST 10 TO 15 MINUTES. D- OVER THE FIRE DRAUCHT = -0.01 TO -0.02 W.C.
WARNING: 1. REFER TO THE RATING PLATE FOR THE PUMP PRESSURE AND THE NOZZLE TYPE. 2. REFER TO THE BECKETT INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR DETAILS ON THE BECKETT PUMP. 3. FOR ELECTRODES SETTING SEE THE BECKETT MANUAL. 4. FOR THE START-UP AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE BURNER SEE THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL OF THE BURNER.
MAINTENANCE WARNING: Turn off electric power supply before servicing the unit. 1. The furnace, the burner and the flue pipe should be cleaned at least once a year. 2. The nozzle should be inspected and replaced if needed. Handle with care to avoid damaging its surface. 3.
