Safe Wood-Burning; Draft Control & Draft - England's Stove Works 28-4000 Guide D'installation Et D'utilisation

 To maintain proper airflow, regularly remove ashes from your wood-burning appliance
into a metal container with a cover and store outdoors.
Safe Wood-burning Practices
Once your wood-burning appliance is properly installed, follow these guidelines for safe
operation:

Keep all flammable household items—drapes, furniture, newspapers, and books—
far away from the appliance.

Start fires only with newspaper, dry kindling and all natural or organic fire starters.
Never start a fire with gasoline, kerosene, or charcoal starter.

Do not burn wet or green (unseasoned) logs.

Do not use logs made from wax and sawdust in your wood stove – they are made
for open hearth fireplaces. If you use manufactured logs, choose those made from
100 percent compressed sawdust.

Build hot fires. For most appliances, a smoldering fire is not a safe or efficient fire.

Keep the doors of your wood-burning appliance closed unless loading or stoking the
live fire. Harmful chemicals, like carbon monoxide, can be released into your home.

Regularly remove ashes from your wood-burning appliance into a metal container
with a cover. Store the container of ashes outdoors on a cement or brick slab (not on
a wood deck or near wood).

Keep a fire extinguisher handy.

Remember to check your local
Draft Control and Draft
This unit has a draft control
system that is used to determine the
amount of combustion air that enters the
stove. The more the damper is opened,
the more air will enter the firebox and
thereby increase the heat output of the
unit. This will, by creating a hotter fire,
make your fuel burn faster.
No two flue systems are identical; you will have to experiment with your furnace
draft settings to achieve the maximum burn time and heat output. If you have any problem
regulating the furnace, consult your local dealer or our Technical Support department at
(800) 245-6489.
