Heatmax Furnace Installation and Operation Manual

1.2 Smoke detector
We highly recommend the use of a smoke detector. It must be installed at least 15 feet
(4.57 m) from the appliance in order to prevent undue triggering of the detector when
reloading.
1.3 Chimney fire
A Chimney fire will happen when the flame from an uncontrollable fire ignites the sooth
and creosote deposits in a neglected venting system. It will often happen when burning
cardboard, branches or small dry pieces of wood. The first signs of a chimney fire are:
1.
A rumble.
2.
Smoke pipe becomes extremely hot.
3.
Sparks or even flames shoot out of the chimney
In the event of a chimney fire, first call your local fire department and water the roof
in the vicinity of the chimney.
Make sure that the furnace door and the air intake damper are closed (if need be, lower
the thermostat setting and CLOSE the barometric draft damper manually if one is installed.
In the event of uncontrollable fire (caused by wrongful operation or excessive chimney
draft), follow the same procedure as in a chimney fire but you must then OPEN the
barometric draft damper manually if one is installed.
1.4 Prolonged power outage
To reduce the risk of overheating during a prolonged power outage (more than 10
minutes), it is recommended damper is closed. If your furnace is equipped with the
optional filter, remove the air filter to improve the circulation of air around the combustion
chamber of the Heatmax furnace. Do not load the furnace more than 50 percent of its
capacity to prevent the risk of overheating,
