Page 3: Introduction
(see General Technical data, static pressure). The wood burning AN-30 Add-on furnace is approved in line connection to an existing oil furnace with a firing rate of 0.8 G.P.H. (US) to 1.2 G.P.H. (US). -
Page 4: Odour From The Paint
WARNING -THE ASH DRAWER GET VERY HOT, DO NOT HANDLE WITH BARE HANDS. ODOUR FROM THE PAINT The furnace will release some smoke and odors when first fired; this is normal and will stop when the paint has finished curing. Burn the unit at high rate with windows opened until the smoke and smell is vented out. -
Page 5: Ash Drawer
ASH DRAWER Your appliance is equipped with an ash drawer to collect ashes produced by the combustion of wood. This drawer must not be left open during combustion as this will cause over firing and serious damage to the furnace. The drawer must be cleaned regularly. -
Page 6: Matching The Transfer Duct Between The Two Heat Generators
MATCHING THE TRANSFER DUCT BETWEEN THE TWO HEAT GENERATORS Install the plenum and heating ducts in line as in option 1 of appendix 1. In series connection should be considered only if in line connection is not feasible. If the ducts are installed in series (appendix 1, option 2) and the oil furnace’s fan limit control is mounted on the plenum, the divider in the plenum must be installed at least 5”... -

MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS FOR AN-30 ADD-ON N.B. This appliance must be installed in accordance with the instructions on the certification plate applied on the unit. 2" N.B. THE AIR RETURN CONDUITS SHOULD BE AT LEAST EQUAL TO THE COLD AIR PLENUM... -
Page 8: Pipe Connector And Damper
A 8” diameter chimney and connector approved for use with wood burning heating appliances are mandatory for the AN-30. Install the barometric control provided with the furnace. Do not install a manual damper. It’s strictly forbidden to connect a solid fuel burning appliance to a chimney deserving a propane or natural gas appliance. -
Page 9: Combustion Air
COMBUSTION AIR When the furnace and the chimney are completely cold, it might be necessary to provide fresh air by opening a door or a window for a few minutes before lighting. Take note that a house constructed or renovated in order to be airtight is liable to lack fresh air which is necessary for a proper combustion and operation of heating appliances. -
Page 10: Electrical Connections
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS The following instruction do not replace those of the local code. AN-30 ADD-ON Installation and verification of this appliance must be done by a qualified service man. Mount the fan limit control on the side of the furnace opposed to the transfer duct between the two heat generators. -
Page 11: Operating Instructions
The switch located below the fan limit control operates the low speed either at the “on” position or the “off” position. For a better efficiency we recommend to leave the high speed on automatic for heating and to use the low speed for continuous air circulation. It is possible that the blower and motor pulleys have to be replaced in order to obtain the desired air flow through the system. -
Page 12: Preheating
PREHEATING 1. Once the kindling is well ignited or the coals revived, put 2 or 3 fire logs in such a way that the flames can interlace between the logs and close the door. Wait 15 to 20 minutes then proceed with loading the furnace. HEATING 1. -
Page 13: Chimney Fires
There are two important factors to be considered when choosing a type of wood: the moisture content and the wood density. Hardwood, such as maple, oak or beech will provide better results because of the high density and minimal tar produced during combustion. It is highly recommended to use wood that has been dried at least six months. -
Page 14: Prolonged Power Outage
PROLONGED POWER OUTAGE In case of prolonged power outage (more than 10 minutes), in order to diminish the risk of overheating, it is recommended to : - Make sure that the furnace’s damper is closed. Open the filter compartment of the existing furnace in order to facilitate the circulation of air, through natural gravity, around the wood add-on combustion chamber. -
