BEFORE INSTALLATION OF
YOUR APPLIANCE
1. HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN,
CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY
CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
2. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE
FLUIDS.
3.
Check with the building inspector's office for
compliance with local codes; a permit may be
required.
4. This room heater must be connected to (1) a listed
Type HT (2100°F) chimney per UL 103 or ULC S629,
or (2) a code-approved masonry chimney with a flue
liner. The chimney size should not be less than the
area of the flue collar, or more than three times greater
than the cross-sectional area of the flue collar.
5.
A 6" diameter flue is required for proper
performance.
6. Always connect this unit to a chimney and NEVER
vent to another room or inside a building.
7. DO NOT connect to any duct work to which another
appliance is connected, such as a furnace.
8. DO NOT connect this unit to a chimney flue serving
another appliance.
9. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START
THE FIRE.
10.
The connector pipe and chimney should be
inspected periodically and cleaned if necessary.
11.
Remember the clearance distances when you
place furniture or other objects within the area.
DO NOT store wood, flammable liquids or other
combustible materials too close to the unit.
12. Contact your local fire authority for information
on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a clearly
understood plan to handle a chimney fire. In the
event of a chimney fire, turn air control to a closed
position and CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
13. DO NOT tamper with the combustion air control
beyond normal adjustment.
14. Once the required draw is obtained, operate only
with doors closed; open doors slowly when re-fueling
(this will reduce or eliminate smoke from entering the
room).
15. DO NOT install these units in a mobile home or
trailer. These units are NOT mobile home approved.
16. Visit our web site at www.amesti.cl for helpful

OPERATION
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.
Too much draft may cause 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 heating appliance will have a difficult time to
raise the "chimney flue" temperature to give adequate
draft, therefore causing a smoke back up, poor burn,
or both.
Should you experience such problems, call in a local
chimney expert.
