    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual The door glasses are a 5 mm thick ceramic material that contains no toxic chemicals. They are made of natural raw materials such as sand and quartz that are combined in such a way to form a high temperature glass. Ceramic glass cannot be recycled in the same way as normal glass, so it should not be disposed of with your regular household products.

  • Page 14: Log Length

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual Homeowners with access to both hardwood and softwood fuel sometimes use both types for different purposes. For example, softer woods make good fuel for relatively mild weather in spring and fall because they light quickly and produce less heat Softwoods are not as dense as hardwoods so a given volume of wood contains less energy.

  • Page 15: How To Dry Firewood

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual Wood should be split to a range of sizes, from about 3” to 6” (75 mm to 150 mm) in cross section. Having a range of sizes makes starting and rekindling fires much easier. Often, the firewood purchased from commercial suppliers is not split finely enough for convenient stoking.

  • Page 20: Ash Removal

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual 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 fireplace is relatively cool, but there is still some chimney draft to draw the ash dust into the fireplace and prevent it from coming into the room.

  • Page 24 Monaco Installation and Operation Manual Long burn times are not necessarily an indication of efficient fireplace operation. When you are home during the day and able to tend the fire, it is preferable to build a smaller fire that might provide three or four hours of heating than to fully load the firebox for a much longer burn.

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual 5.1.4 Door Alignment To align, open the fireplace’s doors and loosen the pressures screws located on the lower and upper hinges of each door using a 3/32” Allen key to free the adjustable hinge rods. Using a flat screwdriver, turn the adjustable hinge rods in the direction shown to adjust the doors.

  • Page 28: Replacing The Door Gasket

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual 5.1.5 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 29: Replacing The Glass Gasket And/Or The Glass

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual Use the correct replacement gasket that you can purchase from your retailer. The diameter and density of the gasket is important to getting a good seal. 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.

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual 5.2.2 How Often Should You Clean the Chimney? It is not possible to predict how much or how quickly creosote will form in your chimney. It is important, therefore, to check the build-up in your chimney monthly when getting used to the new fireplace until you determine the rate of creosote formation.

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual 8 The Venting System 8.1 General The venting system, acts as the engine that drives your wood heating system. Even the best fireplace will not function safely and efficiently as intended if it is not connected to a suitable chimney.

  • Page 52: Chimney Installation Notes

    Monaco Installation and Operation Manual 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 fireplace. 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 53 Monaco Installation and Operation Manual 7. Deviations should be avoided whenever possible, especially the most pronounced. Each deviation adds some restriction to the chimney system and may lead to draft problems. 8. If the chimney extends higher than 5 ft. (1.5 m) above its point of contact with the roof, it must be secured using a roof brace.
  • Page 54 Monaco Installation and Operation Manual 12. For installations where more than one chimney is located in the same non-chase or within the same area, we suggest that their terminations be separated by at least 16" (410 mm) horizontally, and 18" (460 mm) vertically. This separation is to prevent smoke migrating from one chimney to another.

It may starve other fuel burning appliances such as gas or oil furnaces. As well, exhaust blowers may compete for air, causing negative pressure in the house, resulting in smoke entering the house from the fireplace.
