WHY THE CORRECT FLUE SIZE IS IMPORTANT: 6"
"Draft" is the force that moves air from the appliance up through the chimney.
The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local
geography, nearby obstructions, and other factors.
excessive temperatures in the appliance. An uncontrolled burn or a glowing red part or
chimney connector can indicate excessive draft. Inadequate draft may cause back
puffing into the room and "plugging" of the chimney and/or cause the appliance to leak
smoke into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints.
Today's solid fuel appliances are much more efficient than in the past. The units
are designed to give you controlled combustion, as well as maximum heat transfer,
using less fuel to do so.
The design of your new appliance is such that the exhaust "smoke" is now at
lower temperatures than in the past, therefore requiring proper chimney size to give
adequate draft. If your chimney is too large, the heater will have a difficult time raising
the temperature of the flue enough to provide adequate draft, which can cause a
"smoke back," poor burn, or both.
Should you experience such problems, call in a local chimney expert.
With the door closed, the rate of burning is regulated by the amount of air
allowed to enter the unit through the air control. With experience, you will be able to set
the control for heat and burning time desired.
Attempts to achieve higher output rates that exceed heater design specifications
can result in permanent damage to the heater. The recommended wood load is level
with the top of the firebricks. Overloading may prevent sufficient air entering the heater
to properly fuel the fire.
DO NOT tamper with the combustion air control beyond the normal adjustment
capacity.
Operate this heater only with the door closed.
DO NOT OVERFIRE. If the heater or chimney connector glows, you are overfiring.
In the event of power loss, keep the fire low, close draft air and open all registers.
ALWAYS PROVIDE A SOURCE OF FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM WHERE THE UNIT IS
INSTALLED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN AIR STARVATION OF OTHER FUEL
BURNING APPLIANCES AND THE POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS.
THIS HEATER IS EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. SERIOUS BURNS CAN RESULT
FROM CONTACT. CAUTION SHOULD BE OBSERVED, ESPECIALLY WHEN CHILDREN ARE
PRESENT.
