I. Burn Rates and Operating Effi ciency
For maximum operating effi ciency
1. Burn dry, well-seasoned wood.
2. Follow these burn rate instructions below and refer to
Figure 11.1.
*NOTE:
These are guidelines. Actual settings may vary with
type of wood, chimney draft, altitude and other variables.
Burn Rates
1. Starting a Fire and Reloading
•
Open both controls fully by raising the Burn Rate Air Con-
trol all the way up until it stops and push the Start-up Air
Control back until it stops.
• The blower tends to cool the appliance. Leave the blower
off until the burn is well established, i.e., 30 minutes.
•
After loading the appliance with wood and starting the
fi re, set both controls to the desired setting by following
the burn rate instructions below.
2. High Burn Rate - Maximum Heat*
• Raise the Burn Rate Air Control all the way up until it stops
(top marker) to a fully open position.
•
Push the Start-Up Air Control all the way back until it stops
and leave it there.
• This setting over-rides the timer system (ACC) so you
must monitor the fi re closely while in this setting.
3. Medium-High Burn Rate
-
15,000 to 30,000 BTU/hr*
•
Raise the Burn Rate Air Control all the way up until it
stops (top marker) to a fully open position.
•
Push the Start-Up Air Control all the way back until it
stops and then pull forward until it stops.
• This activates the timer system (ACC).
4. Medium-Low Burn Rate - 10,000 to 15,000 BTU/hr*
• Raise the Burn Rate Air Control up to the bottom of the
middle marker and stop.
• Push the Start-Up Air Control until it stops.
• This activates the timer system (ACC).
5. Low Burn Rate - Below 10,000 BTU/hr*
• Leave the Burn Rate Air Control at the bottom marker.
•
Push the Start-Up Air Control all the way back until it
stops and then pull forward until it stops.
• This activates the timer system (ACC).
