G- ELECTRIC ELEMENT (MINI-CADDY WOOD / ELECTRIC)
The WOOD / ELECTRIC combined model is installed with two thermostats: one thermostat controls the electric
heating, the other one controls the wood heating. With this system, the electric heating has priority over the wood
heating. When the thermostat activates the electric heating, the air inlet closes down (if opened), the blower starts
and the electric elements are successively activated per block of 3.75 kW.
When the call for electric heating is satisfied, the wood system will take over if the starting point of the wood
system is superior to that of the electric system so, in normal bi-energy use, you should set the wood thermostat 2
o
to 3
C higher than the electric system thermostat; the bigger the gap, the more the wood heating will contribute to
the overall heating needs.
Take note that this furnace is equipped with a four speed blower motor. Aside from low speed, you may select
medium-low, medium-high or high speed.
If the temperature in the electric unit exceeds 200°F, the L-200 thermodisc will disengage the elements until has
cooled down and automatically turn them back on if the thermostat is still calling for heat. Should the temperature
keep on increasing and reach 250°F, the L-250 thermodisc will disengage the elements and it will have to be
reactivated manually by pushing the reset button. Find and fix the cause of overheating before reactivating the unit.
