This manual describes the installation and operation of the Pacific Energy, NEWCASTLE 1.6 Freestanding wood
stove. This woodstove meets the 2015 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's crib wood emission limits for wood
woodstoves sold after May 15, 2015. Under specific test conditions this woodstove has been shown to deliver heat
at rates ranging from 9,200 to 34,800 Btu/hr.
NOTE: WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS BE INSTALLED IN THE
AREA WHERE THE Woodstove IS TO BE INSTALLED.
If smoke detectors have been previously installed, you may notice that they are operating more frequently. This may be due
to curing of stove paint or fumes caused by accidentally leaving the fire door open. Do not disconnect the detectors.

tion instructions. Contact local building or fire officials about restrictions and installation inspection requirements
