AIR CIRCULATION SYSTEM
In order to improve air circulation in the room where the wood stove is installed, certain
options are available for specific stove models.
Blower:
A variable speed-control blower is available.
Thermodisc:
The thermodisc is installed on the blower's electrical supply cord, and
it will start the blower when the stove’s temperature reaches 120
°
F
(49°C) and cut off power when the stove cools down below 100
°
F
(37°C). Information regarding installation of the thermodisc is
included with the device.
MAINTENANCE
It is important to perform a visual inspection of the stove every time it is emptied, in order
to insure that no parts have been damaged, in which case repairs must be performed
immediately.
GLASS
•
Inspect the glass regularly in order to detect any cracks. If you spot one, turn the stove
off immediately. Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. Do not use
the stove if the glass is broken.
•
If the glass on your stove breaks, replace only with glazing supplied from the dealer.
•
To replace the glass, remove the screws retaining the glass mouldings inside the door.
Remove the mouldings and replace the damaged piece with a new one. Perform the
procedure backwards after replacing. When replacing the glass, you should change
the glass gasket to make sure you keep it sealed.
•
Never wash the glass with a product that may scratch. Use a specialized product,
available in the stores where wood stoves are sold.
•
The glass should be washed only when cold.
GASKETING
It is recommended that you change the door gasket (which makes your stove door air
tight) once a year, in order to insure good control over the combustion, maximum
efficiency and security. To change the door gasket, simply remove the damaged one.
Carefully clean the available gasket groove, apply a high temperature silicone sold for this
purpose, and install the new gasket. You may light up your stove again approximately 24
hours after having completed this operation.
