Catalytic Combustor system Operation
The proper use of a wood burning fireplace equipped with the Catalytic Combustor system will significantly
reduce the emissions that it produces. Simple fuel considerations with regard to moisture content, size, and quality of
fuel will help control the production of wood smoke and ultimately improve the performance of the Catalytic Combustor
system and fireplace efficiency. With proper care, the Catalytic Combustor system will provide years of fuel savings and
lowered emissions. By following some simple guidelines, you will ensure maximum performance and longevity.
The smoke that is usually seen coming out of a chimney is essentially a combination of unburned fuel (carbon
and hydrogen) and moisture in the form of water vapor. The Catalytic Combustor system is a technology that provides
secondary combustion for the wood burning process.
Avoid the use of treated, painted and laminated wood. Never incinerate garbage or other foreign materials. Do
not use artificial logs, colored newspaper or petroleum based fire starters. Avoid wood with high salt content. All of these
materials may contain compounds which can shorten the life of the catalyst. Wet or unseasoned wood may lower catalytic
temperatures and result in inefficient operation.
The Catalytic Combustor system is designed to function at optimum efficiency when the fireplace is burning
clean, dry cordwood as fireplace fuel. A simple visual inspection of the chimney during the wood burning process will
determine catalytic performance.
NOTE:
Chimney smoke may be visible during the first 8-10 minutes of fireplace operation when the fire is first started
and also during the final 8-10 minutes of operation when the fire in the fireplace is going out. Otherwise, the catalytic
system will eliminate approximately 90% of the visible chimney smoke typically produced by a wood burning fireplace.
