TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
Blower will not come on.
High limit switches may be shut off because
the water temperature is higher than aquastat
setting permits.
Wait for the water to cool down.
No electricity.
Check your power supply.
Blower overheated.
Wait for blower to cool down.
Blower is on but no air in firebox.
Flapper unit flap stuck shut.
Force flap open. Clean and oil flap. To
remove flapper unscrew blower bolts.
Use only seasoned wood.
The water overheated and boiled
over. Now after refilling the water,
temperature is below operating range,
but there is no power coming through
to the blower.
The high limit switch (snap disc) has tripped the
circuit.
This high limit switch is designed to reset
automatically when the temperature drops
down to approximately 130°F (54°C).
When the snap disc function is defaulted
the power should be restored.
There is some smoke coming from
the chimney most of the time.
Smoke exit lid is not sealing.
(See pg 8 No.10)
Check linkage to door. Check for a gap
between the lid and opening rib.
Tighten the lid pivoting bolt.
Wood is of poor quality.
Burn only seasoned wood.
Water temperature is too low.
Reduce heat draw from furnace allowing
the water temp. to reach at least 160°F
(71°C).
Furnace overheats and boils.
Main door has been left open.
Close door.
Main door and/or ash clean out gaskets are
leaking.
Replace gaskets or adjust latches and/or
hinges.
Hot water is not reaching the building. Water level is low.
Fill system to proper water level.
No water circulating.
No power to pump.
Faulty pump - fix or replace pump, or
replace cartridge.
Air in water lines.
Bleed lines to release air and reprime the
circulating pump.
Low heat output.
Wood moisture is too high causing the wood
to bridge.
Note: When bridging happens there is an air
space between the wood and the firebox floor.
The air then exits the firebox without causing
the wood to burn.
Use seasoned wood. Cut wetter pieces
shorter (8 inches (20 cm) shorter than
firebox) and load the logs as close to the
front of the firebox as possible. Split the
bigger logs. Place the logs carefully so
they will not bridge.
Fire has almost died out before refuelling.
Add wood before the fire has burned
down.
Wood is hung up and bridged because of
incorrect length and loading.
Place logs centered over all the brick slots/
air passages on the firebox floor. Note: If
one brick slot is left with no wood the air
bypasses the wood and exits through this
slot.
