Th
is Furnace will accept the installation of a Domestic Hot Wa-
ter Coil Kit. Th
e U.S. Stove kit is a 1124 Water Coil and it may
be purchased from your local dealer.
1. Remove the access panel on the rear of the furnace enclo-
sure.
2. With a utility knife, cut away a section of the insulation di-
rectly behind the access panel.
3. Remove the cover plate from the rear of the furnace fi rebox.
4. Place one nut on each end of the water coil and thread each
nut up to the end of the threads on the coil.
5. Insert the coil through the holes from the inside of the fi re-
box. Install a gasket, washer and nut onto each end of the
water coil. Tighten the nuts down securely to insure an air
tight seal.
Th
e installation is now ready to be plumbed to your existing
hot water system. Choose one of the three methods described
in the Hot Water Coil instructions.
6. Remove knockouts from the access panel and re-attach to the
furnace enclosure.
Have a qualifi ed plumber connect your domestic hot water pipe
to the coil with the appropriate fi ttings.
Furnaces that are capable of burning coal usually will burn both
Bituminous and Anthracite coal. Anthracite is perhaps the best
coal fuel because of its long even burn time, high heat output,
and cleanliness which make it a good choice for the home. How-
ever, keep in mind it is a much more diffi
cult fuel to use, requires
more care and patience, is not so widely available, and is usually
much more expensive than Bituminous.
SIZE OF COAL
Most sizes of Bituminous Coal will work in a coal furnace; for
best results we recommend large “nut” coal to small “egg” coal
(1-3/4” diameter to 4” diameter). When burning Anthracite, use
“egg” or “broken” with sizes between 2-5/16” thru 4-3/8”. Note
that it is important to the long life of your stove to buy coal which
has been sized and cleaned. Cleaning insures removal of rocks
and other minerals. Never use coal smaller than 1” or larger than
5” in diameter. Small sized coal will smother the fi re. Too large a
size of coal will not burn well.
STOVE OPERATION
All coal fi res should be started with wood which will allow the
fi re to get hot enough to ignite the coal. Th
e best ignition fi res
utilize dry pine or other resinous soft woods as kindling, with
hard wood (oak, hickory, ash) added to increase the heat prior to
addition of the coal.
Before starting the fi re, open the stove pipe damper (if equipped),
turn the thermostat to high, open the ash pit door and feed door,
place newspaper and fi nely split kindling on the grate, light the
paper, add larger hard wood aft er the kindling is burning bright-
ly. CAUTION: Never use gasoline, lantern fuel, kerosene, char-
coal lighter fl uid, or other fl ammable liquids to start or freshen
up a fi re in any heater. Place the larger pieces of wood on the
fi re so that they are slightly separated and form a level for the
addition of coal. It will take 10 to 20 minutes before this wood is
thoroughly ignited. Adding coal too soon will cut the air supply
and smother the fi re.
