COMBUSTION AIR ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance requires a source of combustion air. If your home is of tight construction or has negative
pressure problems, you will need an outside source of air. Below is a list of possible indicators that a source of
outside combustion air may be required.
1. Your stove does not draw steadily, smoke rollout occurs, wood burns poorly, or back-drafts occur whether
or not there is combustion present.
2. Existing fuel-fired equipment in the house, such as fireplaces or other heating appliances, smell, do
not operate properly, suffer smoke roll-out when opened, or back-drafts occur whether or not there is
combustion present.
3. Opening a window slightly on a calm (windless) day alleviates any of the above symptoms.
4. The house is equipped with a well-sealed vapor barrier and tight fitting windows and/or has any powered
devices that exhaust house air.
5. There is excessive condensation on windows in the winter.
6. A ventilation system is installed in the house.
Intake Venting Kit Installation
If an outside air intake is required. You have two options. You may cut a rectangular hole in the floor of your
home and the floor protector, or purchase a standard 4” Dryer Vent kit from your local hardware supply store
and install it on the rear of the pedestal.
If using a Intake venting kit, the outlet cover must be of a design that DOES NOT close by means of a flap or trap door.
You must purchase a style that allows a continuous in-flow of air and that has a rodent screen.
“Intake Venting Kit” installation:
First using a pair of pliers or other means, remove the metal plate from the back of the pedestal and bend
the tabs out. Follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions for attaching the dryer vent kit to the home.
Then attach it to the appliance.
9
CHIMNEY
Ventilation
Your wood stove may be hooked up with a factory built or masonry chimney, matching the diameter
of the stove exhaust. If you are using a factory built chimney, it must comply with UL 103 or CSA-B365
standard; therefore it must be a Type HT (2100°F). It is extremely important that it be installed according to
the manufacturer’s specifications. Take into account the chimney’s location to insure it is not too close to
neighbors or in a valley which may cause unhealthy or nuisance conditions.
If you are using a masonry chimney, it is important that it be built in compliance with the specifications of
the National Building Code. It must be lined with fire clay bricks, metal or clay tiles sealed together with fire
cement. (Round flues are the most efficient).
The interior diameter of the chimney flue must be identical to the stove smoke exhaust. A flue which is too
small may cause draft problems, while a large flue favors rapid cooling of the gas, and hence the build-up of
creosote and the risk of chimney fires. Note that it is the chimney and not the stove which creates the draft
effect; your stove’s performance is directly dependent on an adequate draft from your chimney.
Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance.
The following recommendations may be useful for the installation of your chimney:
• It must rise above the roof at least 3’ (0.9m) from the uppermost point of contact.
• The exterior portion should be double or triple wall pipe to ensure proper draft.
• The chimney must exceed any part of the building or other obstruction within a 10’ (3.04m) distance by a
height of 2’ (0.6m).
• Installation of an interior chimney is always preferable to an exterior chimney. The interior chimney will be
hotter than an exterior chimney that is being cooled by the ambient air outside the house. Therefore the
gas which circulates will cool slower, thus reducing the build-up of creosote and the risk of chimney fires.
• The draft caused by the tendency for hot air to rise will be increased with an interior chimney.
• Using a fire screen at the extremity of the chimney requires regular inspection in order to insure that it is
not obstructed thus blocking the draft, and it should be cleaned when used regularly.

Ventilation
INSTALLATION INTO A MASONRY FIREPLACE
Ashley recommends the use of a full liner where a stainless steel rigid or flexible linear pipe is routed from the
insert outlet collar to the top of the chimney.
Multiple installation methods may be available in your area. Check with local building officials for any permits
required for installation of this unit and notify your insurance company before proceeding with installation.
1. Clean the fireplace opening properly disposing of any ashes in a closed metal container. See Safety
Instructions.
2. Install a continuous stainless steel chimney liner into the existing chimney. Follow liner manufacturer
installation instructions.
• The liner must extend to the top of the existing chimney.
• The interior diameter of the chimney flue must be identical to the stove smoke exhaust.
• Use only listed chimney liners that meet UL1777 standards.
3. Remove or lock the fireplace damper in the open position. Note: Masonry or damper plate may be
removed to accommodate the chimney liner provided this does not weaken any structural components
of the existing fireplace or chimney nor reduces protection of combustible materials required by national
building codes. Consult with your local building or fire authority before doing this.
WARNING: Any fireplace which has had parts removed or modified to accommodate the installation of this
appliance MUST have a warning plate permanently installed in a visible location stating that the fireplace is
unfit for use with solid fuel. Permanently attach the warning plate to a visible location in the fireplace.
4. Uncrate the appliance, remove all packing materials, and any items stored in the firebox.
5. Position the appliance into the fireplace opening.
6. If necessary 1/4-20 leveling bolts can be inserted into the base and used as levelers for uneven fireplaces.
7. Connect the chimney liner to the appliance using a stainless steel adapter and securing with a minimum
of three (3) sheet metal screws. The liner MUST be attached with the male (or crimped) end of the
adapter inside the flue collar of the appliance to allow condensation and/or creosote to drain back into
the firebox.
8. Assemble the facade. See “3.4 INSERT FIREPLACE FACADE ASSEMBLY” section for instruction on facade
assembly and installation.

MASONRY CHIMNEY
Ventilation
Ensure that a masonry chimney meets the minimum standards of the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA) by having it inspected by a professional. Make sure there are no cracks, loose mortar or other signs of
deterioration and blockage. Have the chimney cleaned before the stove is installed and operated. When
connecting the stove through a combustible wall to a masonry chimney, special methods are needed as
explained in the “5.5 Combustible Wall Chimney Connector Pass-Throughs” Section.
12
Ventilation
COMBUSTIBLE WALL CHIMNEY CONNECTOR PASS-THROUGHS
Method A. 12” (304.8 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall
Member: Using a minimum thickness 3.5” (89 mm) brick and a
5/8” (15.9 mm) minimum wall thickness clay liner, construct a
wall pass-through. The clay liner must conform to ASTM C315
(Standard Specification for Clay Fire Linings) or its equivalent.
Keep a minimum of 12” (304.8 mm) of brick masonry between
the clay liner and wall combustibles. The clay liner shall run
from the brick masonry outer surface to the inner surface of
the chimney flue liner but not past the inner surface. Firmly
grout or cement the clay liner in place to the chimney flue
liner.
Method B. 9” (228.6 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall
Member: Using a 6” (152.4 mm) inside diameter, listed, factorybuilt Solid-Pak chimney section with insulation of 1” (25.4 mm)
or more, build a wall pass-through with a minimum 9” (228.6
mm) air space between the outer wall of the chimney length
and wall combustibles. Use sheet metal supports fastened
securely to wall surfaces on all sides, to maintain the 9” (228.6
mm) air space. When fastening supports to chimney length,
do not penetrate the chimney liner (the inside wall of the
Solid-Pak chimney). The inner end of the Solid-Pak chimney
section shall be flush with the inside of the masonry chimney
flue, and sealed with a non-water soluble refractory cement.
Use this cement to also seal to the brick masonry penetration.
Method C. 6” (152.4 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall
Member: Starting with a minimum 24 gauge (.024” [.61 mm])
6” (152.4 mm) metal chimney connector, and a minimum 24
gauge ventilated wall thimble which has two air channels of
1” (25.4 mm) each, construct a wall pass-through. There shall
be a minimum 6” (152.4) mm separation area containing
fiberglass insulation, from the outer surface of the wall thimble
to wall combustibles. Support the wall thimble, and cover
its opening with a 24-gauge minimum sheet metal support.
Maintain the 6” (152.4 mm) space. There should also be a
support sized to fit and hold the metal chimney connector.
See that the supports are fastened securely to wall surfaces
on all sides. Make sure fasteners used to secure the metal
chimney connector do not penetrate chimney flue liner.
Method D. 2” (50.8 mm) Clearance to Combustible Wall
Member: Start with a solid-pak listed factory built chimney
section at least 12” (304 mm) long, with insulation of 1” (25.4
mm) or more, and an inside diameter of 8” (2 inches [51 mm]
larger than the 6” [152.4 mm] chimney connector). Use this
as a pass-through for a minimum 24-gauge single wall steel
chimney connector. Keep solid-pak section concentric with
and spaced 1” (25.4 mm) off the chimney connector by
way of sheet metal support plates at both ends of chimney
section. Cover opening with and support chimney section on both sides with 24 gauge minimum sheet metal
supports. See that the supports are fastened securely to wall surfaces on all sides. Make sure fasteners used to
secure chimney flue do not penetrate flue liner.
NOTE: Connectors to a masonry chimney, excepting method B, shall extend in one continuous section
through the wall pass-through system and the chimney wall, to but not past the inner flue liner face.
A chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or
a floor, or ceiling.

Ventilation
CHIMNEY CONNECTOR (STOVE PIPE)
Your chimney connector and chimney must have the same diameter as the stove outlet. If this is not the
case, we recommend you contact your dealer in order to insure there will be no problem with the draft.
The stove pipe must be made of aluminized or cold roll steel with a minimum thickness of 0.021” or 0.53 mm.
It is strictly forbidden to use galvanized steel.
Your stove pipe should be assembled in such a way that the male section (crimped end) of the pipe faces
down. Attach each of the sections to one another with three equidistant metal screws. Seal the joints with
furnace cement. The stove pipe must be fastened to the stove by at least two screws or other equivalent
mechanical methods.
The pipe must be short and straight. All sections installed horizontally must slope at least 1/4 inch per foot,
with the upper end of the section toward the chimney. Any installation with a horizontal run of stove pipe must
conform to NFPA 211. You may contact NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) and request the latest
edition of the NFPA Standard 211.
To insure a good draft, the total length of the stove pipe should never exceed 8’ to 10’ (2.4m to 3.04 m).
(Except for cases of vertical installation, cathedral-roof style where the smoke exhaust system can be much
longer and connected without problem to the chimney at the ceiling of the room).
There should never be more than two 90 degrees elbows in the smoke exhaust system.
Installation of a “barometric draft stabilizer” (fireplace register) on a smoke exhaust system is prohibited.
Furthermore, installation of a draft damper is not recommended. With a controlled combustion wood stoves
the draft is regulated upon intake of the combustion air in the stove and not at the exhaust.
To
Appliance
IMPORTANCE OF PROPER DRAFT
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. Too
much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing
into the room and ‘plugging’ of the chimney.
Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room through appliance and chimney
connector joints. An uncontrollable burn or excessive temperature indicates excessive draft.
14
Ventilation
FACTORY BUILT CHIMNEY
When a metal prefabricated chimney is used, the manufacturer’s installation instructions must be followed.
You must also purchase (from the same manufacturer) and install the ceiling support package or wall passthrough and “T” section package, firestops (where needed), insulation shield, roof flashing, chimney cap, etc.
Maintain proper clearance to the structure as recommended by the manufacturer. The chimney must be
the required height above the roof or other obstructions for safety and proper draft operation.
15
Woodstove Utilization
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower emissions generally result
when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods.
DO NOT BURN:
1. Garbage;
10. Salt water driftwood or other previously salt
2. Lawn clippings or yard waste;
water saturated materials;
3. Materials containing rubber, including tires;
11. Unseasoned wood; or
4. Materials containing plastic;
12. Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or
5. Waste petroleum products, paints or paint
particleboard. The prohibition against burning
thinners, or asphalt products;
these materials does not prohibit the use of fire
6. Materials containing asbestos;
starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust,
7. Construction or demolition debris;
wax and similar substances for the purpose of
8. Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood;
starting a fire in an affected wood heater.
9. Manure or animal remains;
Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause
smoke. Dead wood lying on the forest floor should be considered wet, and requires full seasoning time.
Standing dead wood can usually be considered to be about 2/3 seasoned. Splitting and stacking wood
before it is stored accelerates drying time. Storing wood on an elevated surface from the ground and under
a cover or covered area from rain or snow also accelerates drying time. A good indicator if wood is ready to
burn is to check the piece ends. If there are cracks radiating in all directions from the center then the wood
should be dry enough to burn. If your wood sizzles in the fire, even though the surface is dry, it may not be
fully cured, and should be seasoned longer. Waste and other flammable materials should not be burned in
your oven. Any type of wood may be used in your oven, but specific varieties have better energy yields than
others. Please consult the following table in order to make the best possible choice.

It is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that you use DRY WOOD only in your wood oven. The wood should have dried for
9 to 15 months, such that the humidity content (in weight) is reduced below 20% of the weight of the log. It is
very important to keep in mind that even if the wood has been cut for one, two or even more years, it is not
necessarily dry, if it has been stored in poor conditions. Under extreme conditions it may rot, instead of drying.
This point cannot be over stressed; the vast majority of the problems related to the operation of a wood oven
is caused by the fact that the wood used was too damp or has dried in poor conditions.
These problems can be:
• Ignition problems
• Creosote build-up causing chimney fires
• Low energy yield
• Blackened windows
• Incomplete log combustion
Smaller pieces of wood will dry faster. All logs exceeding 6” in diameter should be split. The wood should not
be stored directly on the ground. Air should circulate through the cord. A 24” to 48” air space should be left
between each row of logs, which should be placed in the sunniest location possible. The upper layer of wood
should be protected from the elements but not the sides.
16
Woodstove Utilization
CAUTIONS:
• Ashes could contain hot embers even after two days without operating the stove.
• The ash pan can become very hot. Wear gloves to prevent injury.
• Never burn the stove with the stove door or ash clean out opening unsealed . This would result in over
firing the stove. Damage to the stove and even house fire may result.
TESTING YOUR WOOD
When the oven is thoroughly warmed, place one piece of split wood (about five inches in diameter) parallel
to the door on the bed of red embers.
Keep the air control full open by pulling on it and close the door. If ignition of the piece is accomplished
within 90 seconds from the time if was placed in the oven, your wood is correctly dried. If ignition takes longer,
your wood is damp.
If your wood hisses and water or vapor escapes at the ends of the piece, your wood is soaked or freshly cut.
Do not use this wood in your oven. Large amounts of creosote could be deposited in your chimney, creating
potential conditions for a chimney fire.
TAMPER WARNING
This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is against
federal regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with
operating instructions in this manual.
THE FIRST FIRES
The fresh paint on your stove needs to be cured to preserve its quality. Once the fuel charge is properly
ignited, only burn small fires in your stove for the first four hours of operation. Never open the air control more
than necessary to achieve a medium burn rate.
Make sure that there’s enough air circulation while curing the stove. The odors could be smelled during the
3 or 4 first fires. Never start your stove outside. You will not be able to see if you are over heating.
IGNITION
After making sure that the stove air intake controls are fully open (completely pull-out towards you), place
several rumpled sheets of paper in the center of the combustion chamber. Place 8 to 10 pieces of small dry
kindling wood over the paper in the form of a tent. You may also place a few pieces of heating wood, but
choose the smaller ones. No chemical product should be used to light the fire.
Before igniting the paper and kindling wood, it is recommended that you warm up the chimney. This is done
in order to avoid back draft problems often due to negative pressure in the house. If such is the case, open a
window slightly near the stove and twist together a few sheets of newspaper into a torch. Light up this paper
torch and hold it as close as possible to the mouth of the pipe inside the combustion chamber to warm up
the chimney. Once the updraft movement is initiated, you are ready to ignite the stove by lighting the paper
and kindling wood inside the combustion chamber.
When you have achieved a good bed of hot embers, we recommend the following burn procedures:

Woodstove Utilization
The amount of visible smoke being produced can be an effective method of determining how efficiently
the combustion process is taking place at the given settings. Visible smoke consist of unburned fuel and
moisture leaving your stove. Learn to adjust the air settings of your specific unit to produce the smallest
amount of visible smoke. Wood that has not been seasoned properly and has a high wood moisture content
will produce excess visible smoke and burn poorly.
WARNINGS
• NEVER OVERFIRE YOUR STOVE. IF ANY PART OF THE STOVE STARTS TO GLOW RED, OVER FIRING IS
HAPPENING. READJUST THE AIR INTAKE CONTROL AT A LOWER SETTING.
• THE INSTALLATION OF A LOG CRADLE OR GRATES IS NOT RECOMMENDED IN YOUR WOOD STOVE. BUILD
FIRE DIRECTLY ON FIREBRICK.
• NEVER PUT WOOD ABOVE THE FIREBRICK LINING OF THE FIREBOX.
• ATTEMPTS TO ACHIEVE HEAT OUTPUT RATES THAT EXCEED HEATER DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS CAN RESULT IN
PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE HEATER.
OPERATION
Controlled combustion is the most efficient technique for wood heating because it enables you to select
the type of combustion you want for each given situation. The wood will burn slowly if the wood stove air
intake control is adjusted to reduce the oxygen supply in the combustion chamber to a minimum. On the
other hand, wood will burn quickly if the air control is adjusted to admit a larger quantity of oxygen in the
combustion chamber. The air intake control on your stove is very simple. If you pull on it out completely
towards you, it is fully open. If you push on it until it stops the combustion air is reduced to a minimum. Real
operating conditions may give very different results than those obtained during testing according to the
species of wood used, its moisture content, the size and density of the pieces, the length of the chimney,
altitude and outside temperature.
Efficiencies can be based on either the lower heating value (LHV) or the higher heating value (HHV) of
the fuel. The lower heating value is when water leaves the combustion process as a vapor, in the case of
woodstoves the moisture in the wood being burned leaves the stove as a vapor. The higher heating value
is when water leaves the combustion process completely condensed. In the case of woodstoves this would
assume the exhaust gases are room temperature when leaving the system, and therefore calculations using
this heating value consider the heat going up the chimney as lost energy. Therefore, efficiency calculated
using the lower heating value of wood will be higher than efficiency calculated using the higher heating
value. In the United States all woodstove efficiencies should be calculated using the higher heating value.
The best way to achieve optimum efficiencies is to learn the burn characteristic of you appliance and
burn well-seasoned wood. Higher burn rates are not always the best heating burn rates; after a good fire is
established a lower burn rate may be a better option for efficient heating. A lower burn rate slows the flow of
usable heat out of the home through the chimney, and it also consumes less wood.
The top down method of fire building is recommended for this appliance. After making sure that the stove
air intake controls are fully open (completely pull-out towards you), Place the largest pieces of wood on the
bottom, laid in parallel and close together. Smaller pieces are placed in a second layer, crossways to the first.
A third layer of still smaller pieces is laid crossways to the second, this time with some spaces between. Then
a fourth layer of loose, small kindling and twisted newspaper sheets tops off the pile.
RELOADING
Once you have obtained a good bed of embers, you should reload the unit. In order to do so, open the air
controls to maximum a few seconds prior to opening the stove’s door. Then proceed by opening the door
very slowly; open it one or two inches for 5 to 10 seconds, before opening it completely to increase the draft
and thus eliminate the smoke which is stagnant in a state of slow combustion in the stove. Then bring the red
embers to the front of the stove and reload the unit.
For optimal operation of your wood stove, we recommend you to operate it with a wood load approximately
equivalent to the height of fire bricks.It is important to note that wood combustion consumes ambient oxygen
in the room. In the case of negative pressure, it is a good idea to allow fresh air in the room, either by opening
a window slightly or by installing a fresh air intake system on an outside wall.
18
Woodstove Utilization
Creosote - Formation and Need for Removal when wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic
vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the
relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining.
When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney connector and chimney should be
inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to determine if a creosote build-up has
occurred. If creosote has accumulated (3mm or more), it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney
fire.
We strongly recommend that you install a magnetic thermometer on your smoke exhaust pipe, approximately
18” above the stove. This thermometer will indicate the temperature of your gas exhaust fumes within the
smoke exhaust system. The ideal temperature for these gases is somewhere between 275°F and 500°F. Below
these temperatures, the build-up of creosote is promoted. Above 500 degrees, heat is wasted since a too
large quantity is lost into the atmosphere.
• To Prevent Creosote Build Up: Always Burn Dry Wood. This Allows Clean Burns And Higher Chimney
Temperatures, Therefore Less Creosote Deposit.
Leave the air control full open for about 5 min. every time you reload the stove to bring it back to proper
operating temperatures. The secondary combustion can only take place if the firebox is hot enough.
Always check for creosote deposit once every two months and have your chimney cleaned at least once
a year.
If a chimney or creosote fire occurs, close all dampers immediately. Wait for the fire to go out and the heater
to cool, then inspect the chimney for damage. If no damage results, perform a chimney cleaning to ensure
there is no more creosote deposits remaining in the chimney.
ASH DISPOSAL
Whenever ashes get 3 to 4 inches deep in your firebox or ash pan, and when the fire has burned down and
cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1 inch deep on the firebox bottom to help
maintain a hot charcoal bed.
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should
be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, away from all combustible materials, pending final
disposal. The ashes should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
SMOKE AND CO MONITORS
Burning wood naturally produces smoke and carbon monoxide(CO) emissions. CO is a poisonous gas when
exposed to elevated concentrations for extended periods of time. While the modern combustion systems in
heaters drastically reduce the amount of CO emitted out the chimney, exposure to the gases in closed or
confined areas can be dangerous. Make sure your stove gaskets and chimney joints are in good working
order and sealing properly to ensure unintended exposure. It is recommended that you use both smoke and
CO monitors in areas having the potential to generate CO.

•
Operational Tips for Good, Efficient, and Clean Combustion
Get the appliance hot and establish a good coal bed before adjusting to a low burn rate (this may take
30 minutes or more depending on your wood)
Use smaller pieces of wood during start-up and a high burn rate to increase the stove temperature
Be considerate of the environment and only burn dry wood
Burn small, intense fires instead of large, slow burning fires when possible
Learn your appliance’s operating characteristics to obtain optimum performance
Burning unseasoned wet wood only hurts your stoves efficiency and leads to accelerated creosote
buildup in your chimney
It is strongly recommended that ashes in the metal container are taken outside immediately, and are not
stored within your home.
19
Maintenance
Your wood stove is a high efficiency stove and therefore requires little maintenance. It is important to
perform a visual inspection of the stove every time it is emptied, in order to insure that no parts have been
damaged, in which case repairs must be performed immediately. Inspect and clean the chimney and
connector pipe periodically for creosote buildup or obstructions.
GLASS
•
•
•
•
Inspect and clean the glass regularly in order to detect any cracks. If you spot one, turn the stove off
immediately. Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. Do not use the stove if the glass
is broken.
If the glass on your stove breaks, replace only with the glass supplied from your heater dealer. Never
substitute other materials for the glass.
To replace the glass, remove the screws retaining the glass mouldings inside the door. Remove the
mouldings and replace the damaged piece with a new one. Perform the procedure backwards after
replacing. When replacing the glass, you should change the glass gasket to make sure you keep it
sealed.
Never wash the glass with a product that may scratch. Use a specialized product, available in the
stores where wood stoves are sold. The glass should be washed only when cold.
GASKETING
It is recommended that you change the door gasket (which makes your stove door air tight) once a year,
in order to insure good control over the combustion, maximum efficiency and security. To change the
door gasket, simply remove the damaged one. Carefully clean the available gasket groove, apply a high
temperature silicone sold for this purpose and install the new gasket. You may light up your stove again
approximately 24 hours after having completed this operation. This unit’s door uses a 3/4” diameter rope
gasket.
WARNING:
NEVER OPERATE THE STOVE WITHOUT A GASKET OR WITH A BROKEN ONE. DAMAGE TO THE STOVE OR EVEN
HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT.
PAINT
Only clean your stove with a dry soft cloth that will not harm the paint finish. If the paint becomes scratched or
damaged, it is possible to give your wood stove a brand new look by repainting it with a 1200° F heat resistant
paint. For this purpose, simply scrub the surface to be repainted with fine sand paper, clean it properly, and
apply thin coats (2) of paint successively.
BLOWER (IF EQUIPPED)
The blower needs to be removed and air blown clean. Make sure the blades do not have build up.
FIREBRICK
The firebrick should be cleaned and inspected as necessary. Replace any damaged or broken brick.
AIR TUBES
The secondary air tubes must be cleaned with a wire brush. If debris remains in holes lightly tap with a wooden
stick to remove.The air tubes assembled in this unit are designed to provide an accurate mix of secondary
air to insure the highest efficiency. Any damage or deterioration of these tubes may reduce the efficiency of
combustion. The air tubes are held in position by either screws or snap pins. Locate these to either side of the
tube and remove to allow the tube to be removed and replaced.
This wood heater needs periodic inspection and repair for proper operation. It is against federal
regulations to operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this
manual.

FLOOR PROTECTOR
The stove must be placed on solid concrete, solid masonry, or when installed on a combustible floor, on a
Type 2 floor protector listed to standard UL 1618 with a minimum R value of 3.0 and a minimum thickness of
1” or equivalent. The floor protector is required to provide heat, live ember, and ash protection and must be
of a non-combustible, continuous solid surface to protect against infiltration of live embers and ash. For UL
Listed floor protectors, refer to manufacturers instructions for installation directions. Manufacturers of listed
floor protectors include Imperial Metal Products and Hy-C among others. To calculate R-Values for alternative
methods, see below for calculation methods.
Alternate materials may be rated with C-factor (Thermal Conductance) or k-factor (Thermal Conductivity)
ratings which must be converted to R-value to determine if the alternate material meets the tested
requirements. The following instructions provide the proper information and formulas for conversion to R-value.
To determine if alternate materials are acceptable follow this sequence.
1. 1. Convert material specifications to R-value:
a. R-value given — no conversion necessary
b. k-factor is given with a required thickness (T) in inches: R = 1/k x T
c. C-factor is given: R = 1/C
2. 2. Determine the R-value of proposed alternate floor protector:
a. Use formulas in step 1 above to calculate R-value of proposed material(s).
b. For multiple layers, add R-values of each layer to determine overall R-value.
1. 3. If the overall R-value of the floor protector system is equal to or greater than the floor protector
specifications given, the alternate is acceptable.

Example:
The specs of floor protector material should be 3/4-inch thick material with a k-factor of 0.84. The proposed
alternative material is 4” brick with a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8-inch mineral board with a k-factor of 0.29.
Step 1: Convert specs to R-value.
R = 1/k x T = 1/0.84 x 0.75 = 0.893 System must have a R-value of 0.893 = Rspecs
Step 2: Calculate R-value of individual components
4” Brick with C-factor = 1.25. R = 1/C = 1/1.25 = 0.80 = Rbrick
1/8-inch (0.125”) mineral board with k-factor = 0.29. R = 1/0.29 x 0.125 = 0.431 = Rmin.brd.
Step 3: Add R-values of components to get total R-value of system
Rbrick + Rmin.brd = 0.80 + 0.431 = 1.231 = Rsystem
Step 4: Compare Rsystem to Rspecs
Rsystem = 1.231 is larger than Rspecs of 0.893. System R-value exceeds the required specifications and
therefore is an acceptable alternative.
