EFFICIENCY

Efficiencies can be based on either the lower heating value (LHV) 

or the higher heating value (HHV) of the fuel. The lower heating 

value is when water leaves the combustion process as a vapor, 

The higher heating value is when water leaves the combustion 

process completely condensed. The best way to achieve optimum 

efficiencies is to learn the burn characteristic of you appliance. 

Higher burn rates are not always the best heating burn rates; af-

ter a good fire is established a lower burn rate may be a better 

option for efficient heating. A lower burn rate slows the flow of 

usable heat out of the home through the chimney, and it also 

consumes less coal.

OPERATIONAL TIPS

• 

Get the appliance hot and establish a good coal bed before 

adjusting to a low burn rate

• 

Use smaller pieces of wood during start-up and a high burn 

rate to increase the stove temperature 

•  Burn small, intense fires instead of large, slow burning fires 

when possible 

• 

Learn your appliance’s operating characteristics to obtain 
optimum performance 

OVER FIRING 

Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design 

specifications can result in permanent damage to the heater.

ASH REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL

Whenever ashes get 3 to 4 inches deep in your firebox or ash pan, 

and when the fire has burned down and cooled, remove excess 

ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1 inch deep on the firebox 

bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.

Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting 

lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-

combustible floor or on the ground, away from all combustible 

materials, pending final disposal. The ashes should be retained 

in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

SMOKE AND CO MONITORS

Burning  coal  naturally  produces  smoke  and  carbon 

monoxide(CO) emissions. CO is a poisonous gas when exposed 

to elevated concentrations for extended periods of time. While 

the modern combustion systems in heaters drastically reduce the 

amount of CO emitted out the chimney, exposure to the gases in 

closed or confined areas can be dangerous. Make sure you stove 

gaskets and chimney joints are in good working order and seal

-

ing properly to ensure unintended exposure. It is recommended 

that you use both smoke and CO monitors in areas having the 

potential to generate CO.

GASKETS

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  dam

-

aged  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. This unit’s doors 

each use a 3/8” diameter rope gasket.

ATTENTION:

This coal heater needs periodic inspection and repair for proper operation. It is against federal regulations to operate this 

coal heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual.
