PUREFIRE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

Continued

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 cata

-

lyst is a technology that provides secondary 

combustion for the wood burning process. 

MAINTENANCE

The PureFire System is a maintenance free 

technology. Do not attempt to remove or clean 

the combustor. The direct flame from the fire 

will  clean  the  combustor.  Only  a  certified 

technician should remove the unit. To ensure 

proper fireplace operation, the PureFire Sys

-

tem should be replaced every 3 to 5 years 

(see 

Parts

 on page 19). 

NOTE: Chimney smoke may be visible during 

the first 8 to 10 minutes of fireplace operation 

when the fire is first getting started and the 

final 8 to 10 minutes of operation while the fire 

is dissipating. Under normal operating condi

-

tions, you should see little or no smoke coming 

out  of  the  chimney.  If  continuous  smoke  is 

visible, make sure only dry seasoned wood 

is being burned. If visible smoke continues,  

the  combustor  has  ceased  to  function  or 

there is thermal crumbling. Call INNOVATIVE 

HEARTH PRODUCTS at 1-800-655-2008 for 

replacement parts.
