OW DOES IT WORK
?
The fire chamber is completely immersed in a jacket of water (except for the front of the furnace at
the fill door). When a fire is built it heats the water and a pump takes the hot water to the house.
Inside the house you have some kind of heat transfer appliance; this can be a heat exchanger that
fits into your duct work, baseboard style heaters, or a radiant floor heating system. The water can
then be returned to the furnace for reheating. The hot water from the furnace can also be sent to a
special heat exchanger to heat your domestic hot water or copper coils of some type may have been
installed in your furnace depending on what options you had ordered with your furnace.

NSTALLATION
It is important that you have the furnace installed by a qualified installer. Earth Outdoor Wood
Furnaces will not be held responsible for complications due to improper installation and in some
cases the warranty may be voided due to improper installation and start up.
There can be many variations in proper installation. Here are some general guidelines to follow.
Setting the Furnace
Depending on your application and site conditions, you may choose a pre-poured pad or you may
choose to pour a concrete pad. Pad size will depend on customer preference. The smallest pad
recommended for the Klear Sky 400 should be no smaller than 4 ½ feet by 5 ½ feet. You may
choose to pour a larger one based on your own situation and preference.
Underground Line
When digging the trench, it is best to dig below the frost line. You will normally need two 1” lines for
the supply and return of the furnace water, one 1/2” line for the furnace fill line, and an electrical line
to power the furnace. Some installations may require more lines check with a qualified installer or
ask our customer service department to help.
Setting up the system
It is best if this system is set up in a continuous loop going from one appliance to another. Parallel
systems with tees will rarely work or will be inefficient in their movement of water.
There are a number of options and ideas on the set up of the whole furnace system. Consult some
one with experience to design a system that will work for you.
