The central solid fuel outdoor furnace provides the most viable solution to the on going prob-
lem of homeowner utility dependence. In consideration of this fact, the Fire Chief OS2200 has been
engineered to accommodate the heating requirements of the average sized home, even during winter’s
coldest months. It is constructed with high grade, heavy gauge steel and is continually welded to assure
the utmost in structural strength. In addition, the heat exchanger is lined with firebrick to ensure many
years of energy efficient service. The design of the secondary combustion chamber increases fuel
efficiency by creating a “secondary burn” of smoke and wood gases before they are vented up the
chimney. The cast iron door is custom fitted to provide an air tight seal, greatly extending the burn time
and insuring maximum efficiency in fuel consumption. The heavy gauge cast iron grates aid in conve-
nient ash removal and reduces maintenance; the insulated wrap around sides are designed for maxi-
mum heat transfer. For total comfort and convenience, we added a thermostatically controlled circula-
tion blower system. This fully automatic component furnishes rapid heat disbursement to your home,
minimizing recovery time. We have incorporated all of these features as standard equipment, thereby
offering you the most efficient, durable and affordable appliance possible.

IMPORTANT FACTS ABOUT YOUR FURNACE
•
CONSULT
local building inspectors for codes concerning the installation of your furnace.
•
ALWAYS
have access to a backup generator, 2000 watt minimum.
•
USE
“Class A” Manufactured All Fuel 6” Chimney for your Fire Chief OS2200
• NEVER
use galvanized pipe in your flue connection.
•
INSPECT
flues periodically for structural integrity.
•
CLEAN
the flue regularly to prevent creosote accumulation.
• NEVER
use chemicals or gasoline to start or maintain your fire.
•
NEVER
burn garbage, oil, trash or gasoline in your furnace.
•
NEVER
leave the ash pan or fuel door open during operation.
• REMOVE
ashes on a daily basis - before they reach the grates - to insure proper air flow.
•
NEVER
use wet, unseasoned wood or wood exposed to a recent rainfall -
doing so causes a rapid
accumulation of hazardous creosote, a proven cause of flue fires.
•
NEVER
burn plastics, wood products containing glue, paraffin or those treated with chemical
preservatives in your Fire Chief.
The combustion of these substances may release harmful, toxic gases.

Always keep your wood covered year round.
Dry wood will produce more Btu output
and a longer burn time.
