3.2 MANUFACTURED LOGS
Manufactured logs made of 100% wood residues can be burn in your
fireplace. However, they must be used carefully. Therefore, you cannot
place a large quantity of such logs into your fireplace. Manufactured
logs typically release a much larger heat output over a short period of
time. Start with one log and see how the fireplace reacts. You can
increase the number of logs burned at a time to a maximum of three.
Burning more than three manufactured logs at one time can overheat
and damage your stove.
4 OPERATING YOUR FIREPLACE
4.1 YOUR FIRST FIRES
Two things will happen as you burn your first few fires: the paint cures and the internal components of the
fireplace are conditioned.
As the paint cures, some of the chemicals vaporize. The vapors are not poisonous, but they do smell bad.
Fresh paint fumes can also cause false alarms in smoke detectors. So, when you first light your fireplace, be
prepared by opening doors and/or windows to ventilate the house. As you burn hotter and hotter fires, more
of the painted surfaces reach the curing temperature of the paint. The smell of curing paint does not
disappear until you have burned one or two very hot fires.
Burn one or two small fires to begin the curing and conditioning process. Then build bigger and hotter fires
until there is no longer any paint smell from the fireplace. Once the paint smell disappears, your fireplace is
ready for serious heating.
NOTE: Before lighting your first fire, install the wooden door knob to the handle
using the shoulder screw provided. Tighten the screw using the 5/32 hex wrench,
also included.
4.2 LIGHTING FIRES
Each person who heats with wood develops their own favorite way to light fires. Whatever method you
choose, your goal should be to get a hot fire burning quickly. A fire that starts fast produces less smoke and
deposits less creosote in the chimney. Here are three popular and effective ways to start wood fires.
4.2.1 BEST PRACTICE: THE TOP DOWN FIRE
The top down fire starting method solves two problems with the conventional method: first, it does not
collapse and smother itself as it burns; and second, it’s cleaner. The top down method only works properly
if the wood is well-seasoned.
Start by crisscrossing around 10 finely split and dry kindling (0.5 to 1 in) leaving air space between the
pieces. Then put at least 5 newspaper sheets to the top of the pieces. The best way to have your ignition
clean and environmentally friendly is to roll the newspapers to make a long cylinder, then to make 2 knots
with it. The goal is to have the newspapers as compact as possible to make it burn slowly. After the ignition
of the newspaper, let the door open of 1 inch for 5-10 minutes. The air control should be open.
