    Loading a large amount of wood into the HEATMOR™ furnace once a day is not always best. We have found that you have a more efficient fire and produce less smoke when you add fuel twice a day. Example: Half of the days’...
  • Page 31: E What Can I Burn

    What should I burn? This furnace is designed to burn well-seasoned cordwood ONLY(unless you have a coal option with shaker grates). Well seasoned wood is wood that has been properly prepared for combustion. Proper seasoning is generally accepted to be wood that has been harvested, split if necessary, and stored for a reasonable amount of time. The most efficient preparation will result in a wood moisture content of 20 percent to 30 percent.
  • Page 32: G Types Of Wood

    At this point the fuel/air mixture is fuel rich. With proper “secondary air” introduction the fuel/air mixture will approach ideal and result in proper combustion. Your Heatmor furnace is designed to create this situation. Wood too high in moisture content results in lower temperatures and unreliable performance.
  • Page 33: J Efficiency Measurements And Types Of Fires

    Heating Efficiency - Output Based The percentage of the heat produced that was actually absorbed into the water and transferred into the house from the Heatmor Net Efficiency This is the product of the combustion and heating efficiencies. Ninety percent combustion efficiency times 60 percent heating efficiency results in a 54 percent net efficiency.

    Q. Is it a good idea to put the front of my HEATMOR™ into my wood storage building so I can load the HEATMOR™ from inside? A.
  • Page 35: M Types Of Coal

    Types of Coal There are three main types of coal approved for use in a HEATMOR™ furnace. They are Pennsylvania anthracite, Eastern Canadian bituminous and Western Canadian sub-bituminous. Coal can vary in size by grade. Use “stove” coal or a similar size. Smaller sizes may restrict airflow and larger sizes may not burn efficiently, if at all.
  • Page 36: Water

    Water Level Maintenance You can verify the water level of your HEATMOR™ by checking the fullness of the bladder. The water level gauge (“add water” weight) inside the front door of the HEATMOR™ should be up near the bladder, not down near the shelf.
  • Page 37: D Water Additives

    Water Treatment Maintenance / Result The water in the HEATMOR™ should be chemically analyzed once per year to ensure the proper levels of treatment are being maintained.
