operation
TIP: It is more efficient to burn medium-sized wood briskly and to refuel frequently than to burn large logs and
refuel infrequently. Large logs create smoulding, inefficient fires that dirty the glass.
E. Begin adding larger pieces of wood, as the appliance can operate normally at this point.
F. The firebox can be safely filled with wood to the top of the door opening if a 1/4” (6.4mm) space to
secondary air tubes is maintained.
5.1 optimum burn method
A. Maintain a hot, glowing, red coal bed that is 2” (50.8mm) deep.
B. Burn dry seasoned wood.
TIP: To ensure the glass door remains clean, wood should have less than 20% moisture
content.
C. A minimal trace of smoke coming from the chimney is acceptable when the appliance is burning as
intended.
D. Inspect and replace all necessary components (i.e. gaskets, manifolds, glass, etc.) as they may affect the
appliance’s overall performance.
E. Adjust the air control for adequate draft. This will control the burn rate and temperature of the appliance.
Refer to “operation” and “maintenance” sections for detailed information.
Refer to “troubleshooting” section if encountering problems with operation.
As soon as the door is closed, a change will occur in the flame pattern. The flames will get smaller and lazier because
less oxygen is getting into the combustion chamber. The flames, however, are more efficient. The flames will remain
lazy but become larger again as soon as the firebricks have been heated thoroughly, and the chimney becomes heated
and provides a good draft. At this point, the roaring fire that is visible when the door is opened is wastefully drawing
heated room air up the chimney. Always operate with the door fully closed once the medium-sized logs have caught
fire. Operating the appliance with the door open for extended periods of time may result in damages to the appliance.
note:
Once the appliance is entirely hot, it will burn very efficiently with little smoke from the chimney. There will be a
bed of orange coals in the firebox and secondary flames flickering just below the top baffles.
note:
5.2 optional fan operation
The following operating procedure is recommended to achieve optimal performance:
When operating on high burn rate:
1. We recommend setting the fan to the “HIGH” setting and operating with a thermodisc (located at the back of
the appliance).
When operating on medium burn rate:
2. We do not recommend using the fan.
When operating on low burn rate:
3. We do not recommend using the fan.
