    2.2 Zone Heating and How to Make it Work for You Your new Solution 1.3 wood stove is a space heater, which means it is intended to heat the area it is installed in, as well as spaces that connect to that area, although to a lower temperature. This is called zone heating and it is an increasingly popular way to heat homes or spaces within homes.

    3.2.3 Log Length Logs should be cut about 1” (25 mm) shorter than the firebox so they fit in easily. Pieces that are even slightly too long make loading the stove very difficult.

    3.2.5 How to Dry Firewood Firewood that is not dry enough to burn is the cause of most complaints about wood inserts. Continually burning green or unseasoned wood produces more creosote and involves lack of heat and dirty glass door. See Section 5: Maintaining your wood heating system for concerns about creosote.

    3.2.6 Judging Firewood Moisture Content You can find out if some firewood is dry enough to burn by using these guidelines: • cracks form at the ends of logs as they dry • as it dries in the sun, the wood turns from white or cream coloured to grey or yellow, •...

Light the newspaper. 4.3.4 Using Fire Starters Many people like to use commercial fire starters instead of newspaper.

  • Page 19: Ash Removal

    4.4.2 Ash Removal Ash should be removed from the firebox every two or three days of full time heating. Do not let the ash build up in the firebox because it will interfere with proper fire management. The best time to remove ash is after an overnight fire when the stove is relatively cool, but there is still some chimney draft to draw the ash dust into the stove and prevent it from coming into the room.

  • Page 20: Turning Down The Air Supply

    Although it is important to fire each new load hot to prepare for a clean burn, do not allow the fire to burn at full intensity for more than a few minutes. DO NOT LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED WHILE A NEW LOAD IS BEING FIRED HOT. DO NOT OVERFIRE.

  • Page 21: Building Different Fires For Different Needs

    4.4.6 Building Different Fires for Different Needs Using the air control is not the only way to match the stove’s heat output to the heat demand. Your house will need far less heat in October than in January to be kept at a comfortable temperature. If you fill the firebox full in fall weather, you will either overheat the space or turn the stove down so much that the fire will be smoky and inefficient.
  • Page 22 4.4.6.4 Maximum Burn Cycle Times The burn cycle time is the period between loading wood on a coal bed and the consumption of that wood back to a coal bed of the same size. The flaming phase of the fire lasts for roughly the first half of the burn cycle and the second half is the coal bed phase during which there is little or no flame.

  • Page 23: Maintaining Your Wood Heating System

    5 Maintaining Your Wood Heating System 5.1 Stove Maintenance Your new stove will give many years of reliable service if you use and maintain it correctly. Some of the internal components of the firebox, such as firebricks, baffles and air tubes, will wear over time under intense heat.

  • Page 24: Door Adjustment

    5.1.2 Door adjustment In order for your stove to burn at its best efficiency, the door must provide a perfect seal with the firebox. Therefore, the gasket should be inspected periodically making sure to obtain an air tight fit. Airtightness can be improved with a simple latch mechanism adjustment. To increase the pressure on the gasket, remove one washer (A).

  • Page 25: Replacing The Door Gasket

    5.1.3 Replacing the Door Gasket It is important to maintain the gasket in good condition. After a year or more of use, the door gasket will compress and become hard, which may allow air to leak past it. You can test the condition of the door gasket by closing and latching the door on a strip of paper.

  • Page 26: Cleaning And Painting The Stove

    5.1.5 Cleaning and Painting the Stove Do not attempt to clean or paint the stove when the unit is hot. Painted surfaces can be wiped down with a damp cloth. Plated surfaces may be scratched by abrasive cleaners. To maintain the finish at its original brilliance, use only a damp soft cloth to clean plated surfaces.

    5.2.3 Cleaning the Chimney Chimney cleaning can be a difficult and dangerous job. don’t have experience cleaning chimneys, you might want to hire a professional chimney sweep to clean and inspect the system for the first time. After having seen the cleaning process, you can decide if it is a job you would like to take on.

  • Page 36: The Venting System

    8 The Venting System 8.1 General The venting system, made up of the chimney and the connecting pipe between the stove and the chimney, acts as the engine that drives your wood heating system. Even the best stove will not function safely and efficiently as intended if it is not connected to a suitable chimney.

    8.2.2 Masonry Chimneys The stove may also be connected to a masonry chimney, provided the chimney complies with the construction rules found in the building code enforced locally. The chimney must have either a clay liner or a suitably listed stainless steel liner. If the masonry chimney square...

  • Page 38: The Relationship Between The Chimney And The House

    8.4 The Relationship Between the Chimney and the House Because the venting system is the engine that drives the wood heating system, it must have the right characteristics. The signs of bad system design are cold backdrafting when there is no fire in the stove, slow kindling of new fires, and smoke roll-out when the door is opened for loading.

  • Page 39: Supply Of Combustion Air

    There are two reasons why the chimney in the house at right will cold backdraft when it is cold outside and there is no fire burning in the stove. First, the chimney runs up the outside of the house, so the air in it is colder and denser than the warm air in the house.

  • Page 40: Installing The Chimney Connector

    8.6 Installing the Chimney Connector The chimney connector is the single or double wall pipe installed between the stove flue collar and the chimney breech. Single wall pipe components are available from most hardware and building supply stores. These components are not usually tested to a particular standard and certified as compliant.

    Appendix 1: Installing the Legs or Pedestal We suggest assembling the leg kit or pedestal before positioning the stove. See the following installation instructions: PEDESTAL ASSEMBLY Fix the pedestal base using the 4 bolts and washers removed in the previous step. Unscrew the 4 bolts in order to remove the 2 steel supports.

  • Page 43: Appendix 2: Installing The Door Overlay

    Appendix 2: Installing the Door Overlay In order to complete the assembly of your freestanding Enerzone wood stove, you need to install the door overlay. See the following installation instructions: Position the overlay on the door frame and secure it in place from behind using the 4 screws. Note: It is not necessary to remove the glass or any other component to install the overlay.

  • Page 44: Appendix 3: Installing The Optional Air Mate (Ac01361)

    Appendix 3: Installing the Optional Air Mate (AC01361) Most freestanding Enerzone wood stoves can be equipped with an optional air mate. This device accumulates heat and increases the air flow. See the following installation instructions: Note: Even though it is not necessary, may want to secure the optional air mate to the rear heat deflector using 2 self-drilling screws included with the air mate through the holes provided for this purpose.

    Appendix 5: Installing the Fire Screen (AC01318) Open the door. Hold the fire screen by the two handles and bring it close to the door opening. Lean the upper part of the fire screen against the top door opening making sure to insert the top fire screen brackets behind the primary air deflector as in (Detail A).

  • Page 47: Appendix 6: Installation And Use Of Optional Air Circulation Fan And Thermodisc

    Appendix 6: Installation and Use of Optional Air Circulation Fan and Thermodisc An optional fan can be installed on the back of the stove to increase the air flow through the heat exchanger and to improve the flow of warm air in the room. When used regularly, the fan can provide a small increase in efficiency, up to 2 percent.
  • Page 48 When using the optional fan manually, allow the stove to reach operating temperature (approximately one hour), before turning it on. The increased airflow from the fan cools the firebox and could affect the start-up combustion efficiency if the fan is turned on too early. An optional thermodisc kit is provided with the fan to enable the blower to start or stop automatically when the stove is hot or too cold.
