3.3 Manufactured Logs
Do not burn manufactured logs made of wax impregnated sawdust or logs with any
chemical additives. Manufactured logs made of 100% compressed sawdust can be
burned, but use caution in the number of these logs burned at one time. Start with one
manufactured log and see how the stove reacts. You can increase the number of logs
burned at a time to make sure the temperature never rises higher than 475 °F (246 °C) on
a magnetic thermometer for installation on single wall stove pipes or 900 °F (482 °C) on a
probe thermometer for installation on double wall stove pipe. The thermometer should be
placed about 18” (457 mm) above the stove. Higher temperatures can lead to overheat
and damage your stove.
