WARNING
!
• All wiring should be done by a qualified electrician and shall be in compliance with local codes. In the
absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electric Code (in Canada) or the ANSI / NFPA
N 70 National Electric Code in the United States.
o
• Burning your appliance with the ash well open or the ash door ajar creates a fire hazard and may cause
internal damage to the appliance or a house and/or chimney fire.
• Do not connect this appliance to a chimney flue serving another appliance. Do not connect to any air
distribution duct or system.
• Provide adequate clearance for servicing and operating the appliance.
• Provide adequate ventilation.
• Never obstruct the front opening of the appliance.
• Objects placed in front of the appliance must be kept a minimum of 48" (121.9cm) from the front face of the
appliance.
• Do not install in a mobile home.
• Before beginning your installation, consult with your local building code agency or fire officials and insurance
representative to ensure compliance.
• Non-toxic smoke will be emitted during the paint curing process, to help dissipate the smoke open a window
near the appliance.
• Remove any dust or debris off the top of the appliance before firing the appliance as the paint will become
soft as the appliance heats up and will harden as the appliance cures. To cure the paint on your appliance
burn your appliance moderately hot during the first few fires.
• To keep the gasket from sticking to the appliance as the paint is curing, periodically open the door every 5-10
minutes.
• For the first two weeks use generous amounts of fuel and burn the appliance with the damper wide open for
an hour as the appliance goes through a process of eliminating moisture in the steel and firebricks. The initial
heat output will be reduced while the moisture is being drawn from the appliance and it will be necessary
to build several hot fires to remove this moisture. DURING THIS PROCESS DO NOT OVERFIRE THE
APPLIANCE. REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF AIR COMING INTO THE APPLIANCE IF THE APPLIANCE
OR CHIMNEY BECOMES RED.
