Congratulations!
You have selected the finest quality wood and coal burning furnace, manufactured with pride in the
USA.
Please take a few moments to carefully read the owner’s manual. By taking the time to familiarize
yourself with your new Fire Chief, you will be able to look forward to years of trouble-free, dependable
service.
Installation
First: Check Local Codes. The installation must comply with all local rulings and requirements.
• This furnace must not be installed in trailers, modular or mobile homes.
• Always have a properly installed and functioning smoke detector installed in your
home.
• To prevent accidental injury, do not allow anyone who is unfamiliar with the
furnace to operate it.
• Spend time familiarizing yourself with your Fire Chief Furnace, especially the
different settings and the effect they have on burn patterns. It is impossible to state
how each setting will affect your furnace due to variations in settings, fuels and
temperatures.
Transportation Damages
Every effort has been made to insure that your Fire Chief will arrive in perfect condition. Any visible
damage should be noted on the freight bill at the time of delivery. If upon unpacking your Fire Chief
you find damage had occurred during transit, notify your supplier immediately. Your supplier will
advise you as to what actions must be taken to correct the problem.
Disclaimer Notice
The listed Btu rating of your new Fire Chief was obtained under ideal laboratory testing conditions.
The actual Btu output you experience may vary somewhat depending on the type, condition and mois-
ture of the fuel used; the damper adjustment; chimney type and other variable factors. Therefore, the
manufacturer disclaims any guarantee as to the Btu output or capacity of your unit.
Manufacturer’s Notice
Please be advised that we periodically make changes to improve our products. Therefore the informa-
tion in this manual may not be completely compatible with your Fire Chief.
ALWAYS KEEP YOUR WOOD COVERED YEAR ROUND.
DRY WOOD WILL PRODUCE MORE BTU OUTPUT
AND LONGER BURN TIMES.
THIS IS A WOOD AND COAL BURNING FURNACE
AND SHOULD NOT BE ALTERED IN ANY WAY!
