PLEASE REFER TO “FILLING YOUR HEATMOR™ FURNACE WITH WOOD,” FOR ADDITIONAL SAFE
LOADING PROCEDURES.
1) Never open the firebox door if the combustion air blower is operating or if you suspect a roaring
hot fire inside the firebox.
2) Never open firebox door immediately after the combustion air blowers have shut off. If the water
temperature is very close to the high setting, you should assume the air combustion fans have
just shut off.
3) If there is more than a “wiff” of exhaust coming from the chimney and the draft fan is off, do not
open the firebox door for at least two minutes. The burn cycle would have just ended and the firebox
will be full of unburned gases (exhaust) that may ignite when fresh air is introduced.
4) Load the unit with wood carefully, but quickly. After loading wood make sure all debris is cleaned
from the firebox doorframe and gasket. Then close firebox door securely.
5) Keep the firebox door, ash auger tube cover cap, top flue cover plate, and the outer door of the
HEATMOR™ furnace closed at all times except for servicing and refueling.
6) Keep the locking handle on the outer door locked at all times when not servicing or refueling to
reduce the risk of tampering and possible injury.
7)
Keep the anti-roll out device properly cleaned and closing securely.
8) Never add water to the HEATMOR™ furnace if the internal water temperature is over 212 degrees
Fahrenheit. Failure to adhere to this warning may cause a steam flash and result in an explosion.
9) Do not store combustible liquids or materials near the outdoor furnace. Adhere to the “Clearance to
Combustibles” guidelines.
10) Never use gasoline, kerosene, charcoal, lighter fluid or similar liquids to start, re-start or
freshen up a fire. Using such liquids may result in severe burns and injury.
11) When adding water, water treatment or maintaining the HEATMOR™ furnace, protective clothing
must be worn at all times.
