    2.2 Zone Heating and How to Make it Work for You Your new Solution 1.8 wood insert 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.

    instead of wasting it as smoke up the chimney. Also, the features inside the firebox allow you to reduce the air supply to control heat output, while maintaining clean and efficient flaming combustion, which boosts the efficient delivery of heat to your home. The emission control and advanced combustion features of your insert can only work properly if your fuel is in the correct moisture content range of 15 to 20 percent.

  • Page 14: How To Dry Firewood

    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.

  • Page 15: Judging Firewood Moisture Content

    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 colored to grey or yellow, •...

  • Page 16: Operating Your Insert

    4 Operating Your Insert 4.1 Your First Fires Two things will happen as you burn your first few fires; the paint cures and the internal components of the insert are conditioned. As the paint cures, some of the chemicals vaporize. The vapors are not poisonous, but they do smell bad.

  • Page 17: The Top Down Fire

    4.2.2 The Top Down Fire The top down fire starting method solves two problems with the conventional method: first, it does not collapse and smother itself as it burns; and second, it is not necessary to build up the fire gradually because the firebox is loaded before the fire is lit.

  • Page 18: Ash Removal

    Wood burns best in cycles. A cycle starts when a new load of wood is ignited by hot coals and ends when that load has been consumed down to a bed of charcoal about the same size as it was when the wood was loaded.

  • Page 19: Firing Each New Load Hot

    4.3.4 Firing Each New Load Hot Place the new load of wood on and behind the charcoal, and not too close to the glass. Close the door and open the air control fully. Leave the air control fully open until the firebox is full of flames, the wood has charred to black and its edges are glowing red.

  • Page 20: Fan Operation

    4.4 Fan Operation Allow the insert to reach operating temperature (approximately one hour), before turning on the fan, since increased airflow from the fan will remove heat and affect the start-up combustion efficiency. NOTE: ENSURE THE FAN CORD IS NOT IN CONTACT WITH ANY SURFACE OF THE INSERT TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE DAMAGE.
  • Page 21 at the back of the firebox and place the rest of the pieces compactly. A densely built fire like this will produce the longest burn your insert is capable of. You will need to be cautious when building fires like this because if the air is turned down too much, the fire could smoulder.

  • Page 22: Maintaining Your Wood Heating System

    5 Maintaining Your Wood Heating System 5.1 Insert Maintenance Your new insert 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 23: Door Adjustment

    5.1.3 Door adjustment In order for your insert to burn at its best efficiency, the door must provide a perfect seal with the firebox. Therefore, the gasket should be inspected periodically to check for a good seal. The gasket seal can be improved with a simple latch mechanism adjustment. To increase the pressure on the gasket, remove one washer (A).

  • Page 24: Replacing The Glass Gasket And/Or The Glass

    Place the door face-down on something soft like a cushion of rags or piece of carpet. Remove the old gasket from the door by pulling and prying it out with an old screw driver. Then use the screwdriver to scrape the old gasket adhesive from the door. Now run a 1/4” (6 mm) bead of high temperature silicone in the door gasket groove.

  • Page 32: Positioning The Unit

    8.4 Positioning the Unit It is necessary to have a floor protection made of non-combustible materials that meets the measurements specified in table FLOOR PROTECTION (see Section 8.5. To determine the need to add floor protection (D) beyond the hearth extension, you must do the following calculation using the data in Table Data for floor protection calculation of this section: D = B - (A - C).
  • Page 33 If the extension of the masonry hearth is raised at least 4" from the floor protection, a non- combustible material without an R factor is sufficient. If non-combustible material floor protection needs to be added in front of and level with the hearth extension of the masonry fireplace, an R factor equal to or greater than 1.00 is required.
  • Page 34 There are two ways to calculate the R factor of the floor protection. First, by adding the R-values of materials used, or by the conversion if the K factor and thickness of the floor protection are given. To calculate the total R factor from R factors of the materials used, simply add the R-values of materials.

  • Page 39: The Venting System

    9 The Venting System 9.1 General The venting system, made up of the chimney and the liner inside the chimney, acts as the engine that drives your wood heating system. Even the best insert will not function safely and efficiently as intended if it is not connected to a suitable chimney and liner system.

  • Page 40: Suitable Chimneys

    9.3 Suitable Chimneys Your wood insert will provide optimum efficiency and performance when connected to a 6-inch diameter chimney liner. The connection to a chimney having a diameter of at least 5 inches (Canada only) is permitted, if it allows the proper venting of combustion gases and that such application is verified and authorized by a qualified installer.

  • Page 41: Chimney Liner Installation

    9.5 Chimney liner installation The preferred methods for installing the chimney liner are found in Section 9.5.1. Use a liner offset adapter (Section 9.5.2) only as a last resort. 9.5.1 If the chimney liner does align with the insert’s flue outlet, you have two options A) Install the chimney liner starter adapter, provided with the chimney liner.

  • Page 44: Supply Of Combustion Air

    9.8 Supply of Combustion Air In Canada, wood inserts are not required to have a supply of combustion air from outdoors because research has shown that these supplies do not give protection against house depressurization and may fail to supply combustion air during windy weather. However, to protect against the risk of smoke spillage due to house depressurization, a carbon monoxide (CO) detector/alarm is required in the room where the insert is installed.
