2.4 GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
THIS APPLIANCE HAS NOT BEEN TESTED WITH
ANY VENTED OR UNVENTED GAS LOG SET: TO
REDUCE RISK OF FIRE OR PREVENT INJURY, DO
NOT INSTALL A VENTED OR UNVENTED GAS LOG
SET INTO THE APPLIANCE.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS APPLIANCE TO A CHIMNEY FLUE
SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
THIS APPLIANCE AND THE COMPONENTS ARE DESIGNED
TO BE INSTALLED AND OPERATED AS A SYSTEM. ANY
ALTERATION TO OR SUBSTITUTION FOR ITEMS IN THIS
SYSTEM, UNLESS ALLOWED BY THESE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS, WILL VOID THE LISTING AND MAY VOID THE
PRODUCT WARRANTY. IT MAY ALSO CREATE A HAZARDOUS
INSTALLATION. READ THROUGH THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THROUGHLY BEFORE STARTING YOUR INSTALLATION AND
FOLLOW THEM CAREFULLY THROUGHOUT YOUR PROJECT.
• Before beginning your installation, consult with
your local building code agency or fire officials and
insurance representative to ensure compliance.
• Non-toxic smoke will be emitted during the paint
curing process, to help dissipate the smoke open a
window near the appliance.
• Remove any dust or debris off the top of the appli-
ance before firing the appliance as the paint will
become soft as the appliance heats up and will
harden as the appliance cures. To cure the paint on
your appliance burn your appliance moderately hot
during the first few fires.
• To keep the gasket from sticking to the appliance
as the paint is curing, periodically open the door
every 5-10 minutes.
2.5 GENERAL INFORMATION
•
• The chimney vent system used on your wood
burning appliance should be designed with the
least amount of restriction possible to enable the
exhaust products to easily flow through it. Chimney
vent systems that are too short or too long (refer
to point 4.3 ”chimney installation”) can also have
an adverse affect on the flow of exhaust through
it. The wood burning appliance and chimney vent
system also require a sufficient supply of combus-
tion air not only to support the combustion in the
combustion chamber but to replace the exhaust
leaving it so it can flow freely up through the vent
system and out into the atmosphere. It is the cor-
rect balance of combustion air and the chimney
vent system that will ensure the appliance provides
you with its optimum performance.
• Be sure to provide sufficient combustion air. There
are many other appliances in your home competing
for air such as a kitchen range hood, forced air
heating devices or a bathroom exhaust fan.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and
cooling down cycles are normal and to be expected.
After extended periods of non-operation such as
following a vacation or a warm weather season, the
appliance may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This
is caused by dust particles on the firebox burning off.
Open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.
CALIFORNIA PROP 65 WARNING:
Use of this product may produce smoke which contains
chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
If you experience smoking problems, you may need
to open a door, a window or otherwise provide some
method of supplying combustion air to the appliance.
