We welcome you as a new owner of a SCAN wood-burning stove.

Mobile Home Installation: US only In addition to standard installation the following requirements are mandatory for installation in a mobile home. The stove must be permanently bolted to the floor of the mobile home using the floor screws provided. Note: If the composition of the manufactured (mobile) home floor is of light particleboard construction, you will be required to secure the stove with regular hex head bolts and nuts.
Draft Requirements SCAN stoves are only one component of the total system. The venting system is equally important for achieving the required flow of combustion air to the firebox and for safely removing unwanted combustion by-products from the appliance.
Chimney Installation: Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance. Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system. The stoves are listed for installation as a vertically top or rear vented stove using a listed class A (UL103HT) for Canada (CAN/ULC-S629) factory built chimney exiting through the ceiling/attic/roof.
The chimney connector is ether a single or double walled pipe, depending on the type of installation, used to connect the stove to the chimney. For use with the SCAN woodstoves the chimney connector MUST be 6” in diameter, with a minimum thickness of 24 gauge black steel or 26 gauge blued steel.
From the factory the stove is prepared for top mounting of the flue collar, but all SCAN stoves have an optional flue outlet, therefore the flue collar can be fitted either on the top or at the rear as required.
Combustible Wall Chimney Connector Pass-Throughs. Method A. 12” (304.8 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall Member: Using a minimum thickness 3.5” (89 mm) brick and a 5/8” (15.9 mm) minimum wall thickness clay liner, construct a wall pass-through. The clay liner must conform to ASTM C315 (Standard Specification for Clay Fire Linings) or its equivalent.
NOTES: 1. Connectors to a masonry chimney, excepting method B, shall extend in one continuous section through the wall pass-through system and the chimney wall, to but not past the inner flue liner face. 2. A chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a floor, or ceiling.
Baffle Plates The SCAN stoves have two baffle plates that must be installed in the upper firebox. When in the proper position, the rear edges of the baffle plates should touch the back wall of the firebox. See the maintenance section of this manual for additional information on Removing Baffle plates for Cleaning on page 20.
Ceramic Packing Cord These stoves are equipped with a ceramic packing cord to ensure the tightness of the doors and the glasses. This packing cord is a wearing part and must be changed from time to time. Please consult your authorized dealer in this case. Protected Wall Reduced Clearances Local codes in some areas will allow reduced clearances when the stove is installed adjacent to a protected wall system.
Your SCAN freestanding wood stove is designed for burning dry, natural, well-seasoned wood only. (If your wood supply is not seasoned, ask your authorized SCAN dealer where to obtain seasoned fuel in your area). Wood should be stored in a dry place for at least one year before being used for fuel.
5. MAINTENANCE Ash Disposal and Removal CAUTION: Be sure the fire is out and the stove is cold before removing ashes! Be careful when you empty the stove for the ashes. There may be embers left up to 24 hours after the stove was last used.
Removing Baffle for Cleaning. Be sure the fire is out and the stove is cold before removing baffle plate. Be cautions with handling the plates because the plates are made of a delicate material; which easily broke if not handle with care.
