WARNING: Do not overtighten, tighten screws very carefully.

Maintenance

- Do not clean glass when hot

- Do not use abrasive cleaners on glass

1. Burn wood only, dry and well seasoned. The denser or heavier the wood when dry, the greater its heat value. This is why hardwoods are generally preferred. Green or wet wood will cause a rapid buildup of creosote. If you feel it is necessary to burn wet or unseasoned wood, do so only with the air inlet set open enough to maintain a good strong fi re and fairly high chimney temperatures. Do not attempt to burn overnight using green or wet wood. Wet wood can cause up to 25% drop in heater output, as well as contributing signifi cantly to creosote buildup.

WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a fi re. Do not burn garbage, or fl ammable fl uids such a gasoline, naptha, or engine oil. We strongly recommend that smoke detectors be installed.

2. Remove ashes frequently. Embers can roll out the door and create a fi re hazard. Maintain a 25mm minimum ash base.

3. If glass becomes darkened through slow burning or poor wood, it can readily be cleaned with any fi replace glass cleaner when stove is cold. Never scrape with an object that might scratch the glass. The type and amount of deposit on the glass is a good indication of fl ue pipe and chimney buildup.

A light brown, dusty deposit that is easily wiped off usually indicates good combustion and dry, well-seasoned wood and, therefore, relatively clean pipes and chimney. On the other hand, a black, greasy deposit that is difficult to remove is a result of wet and green wood and too slow a burning rate.

This heavy deposit is building up at least as quickly in the chimney.

6. The area where boost combustion air enters the fi rebox must be kept clear of excessive ash buildup which will block air fl ow. This area is at the front of the fi rebox.

7. Do not store wood within heater installation clearances, or within the space required for fuel loading and ash removal.

Keep the area around the heater clean and free of all combustibles, furniture, newspapers, etc.

8. If a plated door requires cleaning, use mild soap and water only. Use of abrasive cleaners will void warranty.

9. Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burning and fi ring technique. Check daily for creosote buildup until experience shows how often you need to clean to be safe.

10. Be aware that the hotter the fi re, the less creosote is deposited.

Weekly cleaning may be necessary in mild weather, even though monthly cleaning is usually enough in the coldest months when burning rates are higher.

11. Instruct all members of your family on the safe operation of the heater. Ensure they have enough knowledge of the entire system if they are expected to operate it. Stress the section on chimney fi res and the importance of following the steps outlined in “In Case of Chimney Fire”.

Baffle Removal

The baffle should be removed from the fi replace to clean and inspect the chimney liner.

DO NOT OPERATE WITH BAFFLE ASSEMBLY OR INSULATION

REMOVED.

Baffle Assembly Removal

WARNING: Only use materials supplied by the manufacturer when doing maintenance or replacements.

4. DOOR GASKET - The gasket used by Pacifi c Energy requires only light pressure to seal. This will prolong seal life. It is important that the door seal be maintained in good condition.

Periodically inspect seals and replace if necessary.

5. DOOR GLASS - Do not slam loading door or otherwise impact glass. When closing door, make sure that no logs protrude to contact the glass. If the glass gets cracked or broken, it must be replaced before using the stove. Replacement glass can be obtained from your Dealer. The size required is 289mm x 438mm x 5 mm. Ceramic glass must be used.

Do not substitute with any other type.

Remove retaining pin at the back top of the fi rebox, just under the baffle. Lift baffle up and pull forward to disconnect from the supply tube. Tilt baffle sideways to drop down and remove from fi rebox.

Inspect gasket between baffle and supply tube. If necessary, replace with gasket # 139.5 available from your nearest Pacifi c

Energy Dealer.

Re-install baffle assembly and insulation by reversing order.

It is recommended to inspect the liner and connector monthly and to have the liner cleaned annually or more frequently if required.

To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws and remove the clamps, noting position for re-assembly. Remove all particles of glass. Be careful, as they are very sharp. Install new glass complete with gasket. Replace clamps and screws.

Cover the opening in the top of the rear upfl ow tube when cleaning the chimney liner. If debris gets into the tube it can cause the tube to prematurely burn out.

In Case of a Chimney Fire

Creosote

Formation and Need for Removal

1. Prepare to evacuate to ensure everyone’s safety. Have a well understood plan of action for evacuation. Have a place outside where everyone is to meet.

When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote.

The creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool chimney fl ue of a slow burning fi re. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the fl ue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fi re. The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fi re.

2. Close down the damper on stove.

3. Call local fi re department. Have a fi re extinguisher handy.

Contact your local fi re authority for further information on how to handle a chimney fi re. It is most important that you have a clearly understood plan on how to handle a chimney fi re.

4. After the chimney fi re is out, the chimney must be cleaned and checked for stress and cracking before starting another fi re. Also check combustibles around chimney and the roof.

This should be done by a certifi ed inspector/chimney sweep.

1. Highest smoke densities occur when a large amount of wood is added to a bed of hot coals and the air inlet is closed. The heated wood generates smoke, but without ample air, the smoke cannot burn. Smoke-free, clean burning requires small fuel loads, two or three logs at a time or 1/4 to 1/2 of a fuel load and leaving the air inlet relatively wide open, especially during the fi rst 10 to 30 minutes after each loading, when most of the smoke generating reactions are occurring. After 30 minutes or so, the air inlet can be turned down substantially without excessive smoke generation. Wood coals create very little creosote-producing smoke.

2. The cooler the surface over which wood smoke is passing, the more creosote will be condensed. Wet or green wood contributes signifi cantly to creosote formation as the excess moisture that is boiled off cools the fi re, making it difficult for the tars and gasses to ignite, thus creating dense smoke and poor combustion. This moisture-laden smoke cools the chimney, compounding the problem by offering the smoke the ideal place to condense.

Avoiding a Chimney Fire

There are two ways to avoid chimney fi res:

1. Do not let creosote build up to a point where a chimney fi re is possible.

2. Do not have fi res in the heater that may ignite chimney fi res.

These are hot fi res, such as when burning household trash, cardboard, Christmas tree limbs, or even ordinary fuel wood;

(eg. with a full load on a hot bed of coals and with the air inlet wide open).

In summary, a certain amount of creosote is inevitable and must be lived with. Regular inspection and cleaning is the solution.

The use of dry, seasoned wood and ample combustion air will help to minimize the buildup.

Chimney Fires

The result of excessive creosote buildup is a chimney fi re.

Chimney fi res are dangerous. Chimney inside temperatures can exceed 2000 degrees F. This causes much higher than normal temperatures in the chimney and on its exterior surfaces thus ignition of nearby or touching combustible material is more likely during a chimney fi re. Proper clearances are critical if such a fi re should occur.

Chimney fi res are easy to detect; they usually involve one or more of the following:

- Flames and sparks shooting out of the top of the chimney

- A roaring sound

- Vibration of the chimney

Operation

Wood Selection

This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiency and lower emissions generally result when burning air-dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or too green or freshly cut hardwoods.

Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months or more. Wet or undried wood will cause the fi re to smoulder and produce large amounts of creosote. Wet wood also produces very little heat and tends to go out often.

1) Adjust air control to "H" (high) position (pushed to the far left) and open door.

2) Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater and criss-cross with several pieces of dry kindling. Add a few small pieces of dry wood on top.

3) Ignite the paper and close the door.

4) After the fi re has established itself, open the door and add a few small logs. Close door.

5) Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and wood has charred.

Normal Operation

DO NOT BURN:

-*Salt water wood

-Wet or green wood

* These materials contain chlorides which will rapidly destroy metal surfaces and void warranty.

Do not burn anything but wood. Other fuel, e.g. charcoal, can produce large amounts of carbon monoxide, a tasteless, odourless gas that can kill. Under no circumstances should you attempt to barbecue in this heater.

How to Test Your Wood

-Coal/charcoal

-Solvents

1) Set air control to desired setting. If smoke pours down across the glass (waterfall effect), this indicates you have shut the control down too soon or you are using too low a setting. As every home’s heating needs vary (i.e. insulation, windows, climate, etc.), the proper setting can only be found by trial and error and should be noted for future burns.

2) To refuel, adjust air control to "H" (high) position (pushed to the far left) and give the fi re time to brighten. Open door slowly, this will prevent backpuffing.

3) Use wood of different shape, diameter and length (up to 19").

Load your wood endwise and try to place the logs so that air can fl ow between them. Always use dry wood.

4) Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that would be hazardous when opening the door.

5) For extended or overnight burns, unsplit logs are preferred.

Remember to char the wood completely on "H" (high) setting before adjusting air control for overnight burn.

Add a large piece of wood to the stove when it has a good, large bed of coals. It is dry if it is burning on more than one side within one minute. It is damp if it turns black and lights within three minutes. If it sizzles, hisses and blackens without igniting in fi ve minutes it is soaked and should not be burnt.

WARNING: Always keep loading door closed when burning.

If the door is left partly open, gas and fl ames may be drawn out of the fi replace stove opening creating risks from fi re and/ or smoke. This heater is not designed for open door burning, unless a manufacturer supplied screen is used. WARNING: Do not use grates or andirons to elevate the fuel.

Burn directly on the fi rebricks. Replace broken or missing bricks. Failure to do so may create a hazardous condition.

Your Pacifi c Energy heater is designed for maximum overall efficiency at a moderate fi ring rate. Overfi ring is hazardous and a waste of fuel. Too slow a burn contributes to creosote buildup and lowers combustion efficiency.

Lighting the Fire

WARNING: This method is not a substitute for regular chimney inspections and cleaning.

5) To achieve maximum fi ring rate, set control to “H” (high) position (pushed to the far left). Do not use this setting other than for starting or preheating fresh fuel loads.

WARNING: Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fl uid, or similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a fi re in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while in use.

DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER: Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specifi cations can result in permanent damage to the heater and chimney.

Fig. # 31 WARNING: No alteration or modifi cation of the combustion air control assembly is permitted. Any tampering will void warranty and could be very hazardous.

Do not store/place wood or other combustibles within the required clearances surrounding the unit.

Air Control set to low.

Restarting After Extended or Overnight Burns

Blower

1) Open door and rake hot embers towards the front of the heater.

Add a couple of dry, split logs on top of embers, close door.

2) Adjust air control to “H” (high) position (pushed to the far left) and in just a few minutes, logs should begin burning.

3) After wood has charred, reset air control to desired setting.

4) When burning at a slow rate for extended periods, occasionally maintain a strong fi re under supervision for a couple of hours to relieve fi rebox and chimney deposits as well as any of the deposits on the glass.

The Alderlea Insert comes equipped with twin variable speed circulating air blowers. The blower system is thermostatically controlled for automatic operation, as as well manually with a convenient bypass switch.

Blower Operation

More Wood, More Heat

Automatic: To operate the blowers automatically, push the rocker switch to the “OFF” position and set the fan speed control to a desired setting.

Seasoned wood has approximately 7500 BTU’s per pound. If you put 10 pounds of wood in your stove for an eight hour burn the wood will be producing 9375 BTU’s per hour. (7500 BTU x

10 lbs / 8 hrs. = 9375 BTU’s per hr.). If you put 20 lbs of wood in your stove for an eight hour burn you will get 18,750 BTU’s per hr. (7500 BTU x 20 lbs / 8 hrs. = 18,750 BTU’s per hr.). This is only an example and is based on 100% efficiency. In reality, your stove should perform in the 70% efficiency range.

Proper Draft

This will allow the blowers to turn on automatically once the Insert has come up to operating temperature. It will also shut the blower off after the fi re has gone out and the appliance has cooled to below a useful heat output range.

Experience will give you the right settings for proper combustion and efficient burning. Remember, the air inlet setting is affected by variables such as type of wood, outside temperature, chimney size and weather conditions. With practice, you will become profi cient in operating your heater and will obtain the performance for which it was designed.

Manual: To manually operate the blowers, push the rocker switch to the “ON” position and set the fan speed control to a desired setting. This will bypass the temperature switch and allow full control of the blower.

Suggested settings:

- Combustion air control setting of “L” (low) position (pushed to the far right), operate blower speed control on “Low”.

- Combustion air control set at anything above “L” (low), operate blower speed control at desired setting.

1) Draft is the force which 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.

2) Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. An uncontrollable burn or a glowing red stove part or chimney indicates excessive draft.

3) Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing into the room and plugging of the chimney. Smoke leaking into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints indicates inadequate draft.

Electrical Supply

Circulating air blower electrical rating; 115V, 60 Hz, 1.1 A. For your protection against shock hazard, use only a properly grounded outlet that will accept a three-pronged plug. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong. Do not route power cord under unit. Power cord must be routed to avoid contact with any hot or sharp surfaces.

All electrical connections to and within an appliance shall be in accordance with the requirments od AS/NZS 3000, AS/NZS 3100 or ER 93 and the regulatory auhtority as appropriate.

Ash Removal

Fig. # 32

Electrical Rating : 115 V, 60 Hz, 1.1A

Whenever ashes get 3 to 4 inches deep in your fi rebox, and when fi re has burned down and cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1 inch deep on the fi rebox bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.

Blowers

Disposal of Ashes

Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fi tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible fl oor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending fi nal disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other waste should not be placed in this container!

be removed from the smoke shelf and adjacent damper frame if necessary to accommodate a chimney liner, provided that their removal will not weaken the structure of the fi replace and chimney, and will not reduce protection for combustible materials to less than that required by the National Building Code.

The Insert must be installed in accordance with local and or national building codes. The two methods of fl ue connection that are acceptable in most areas are:

Full Flue Liner: (Fig.2) where a stainless steel rigid or fl exible liner extends from the Insert fl ue collar to the top of the chimney.

For difficult installations, this insert is approved for use with a SPND.3OFFSETA - 3” fl ue offset box. Only this offset box is approved for use with this insert. The use of any other offset box may cause a hazard and/ or void any warranty.

Full Flue Liner (Fig #2)

This fi replace insert must be installed with a continuous liner of

150mm diameter extending from the fi replace insert to the top of the chimney.

Consult your local Dealer about relining your fi replace chimney.

1) Measure the chimney height from the top of the existing fl ue to the fl oor of the hearth. This will allow extra length of liner for fl ashing and rain cap.

2) Feed the stainless steel liner from the top of the chimney, through the damper area and into the fi replace cavity.

3) Attach a stove connector to the bottom of the liner, as per the instructions provided with the chimney liner.

4) To mount optional rear leveling leg bolts, prop unit up to access threaded inserts under rear of unit. Thread supplied bolts into inserts, set depth to correspond to depth of fi replace drop.

5) Push the Insert into position inside the fi replace and attach the connector to the stove collar and secure with screws.

Use the rear adjusting legs to level the Insert.

Note: To access the holes for securing connector to the stove collar, remove the top front casing. To remove, undo the screws located on both sides of the top front(Fig #3) then pull casing toward you and up. Reverse these steps to install casing top.

If it is necessary to get access to the connector pipe through the fl ue outlet of the Insert, the baffle can be removed (see

Baffle Removal section).

6) Measure, trim and shape a top fl ashing to fi t the existing chimney fl ue. Plan for a 25mm to 38mm overlap on each side. Place fl ashing over top of the liner and seat fi rmly against the tile.

two ways:

1) Outside air (O/A) supply: Remove cover from ash clean out in existing fi replace. Place a rodent screen in place of the cover. Install the Insert as described in the installation section, making sure not to cover the opening of the air inlet.

When installation is complete, seal surround to fi replace and anywhere else air may enter. This will ensure combustion air is drawn from outside the house and into the 229mm x 51mm intake at the lower rear of the appliance.

Fig. # 6

2) Room air supply: Install the Insert as described in the installation section. When the installation is complete, do not seal surround to fi replace. This will allow enough combustion air to enter the fi replace cavity and the Insert. The knockouts in the casing sides and the O/A cover can be removed to supplement air supply (Fig.6 & 7). Once removed, combustion air is drawn from the room into the lower front of the Insert.

Removal: The O/A cover should be removed prior to installation.

For better access, tip the Insert onto its back.

O/A Cover

1. Using a 5/16” wrench, remove the screw securing the O/A cover to the fi rebox (Fig. #5 & 6).

The living space around the heater must be well ventilated with good air circulation. Anything that may cause a negative pressure can cause gases or fumes to be pulled into the living area.

This unit is not designed to be operated with the fi ring door open. In addition to the obvious hazard of sparks landing on combustibles, an open fi re door will cause the heater to draw air from the living space and possibly cause suffocation.
