When you have a small coal bed, it’s the time to crisscross three or four medium-sized split pieces (2-3 in)
of dry firewood in the firebox. You can close the door as soon as you loaded the pieces. Let burn until you
have a good coal bed. You are now ready for the main load.
4.2.2 CONVENTIONAL FIRE STARTING
DO NOT LEAVE THE FIREPLACE UNATTENDED WHEN THE DOOR IS SLIGHTLY
OPENED. ALWAYS CLOSE AND LATCH THE DOOR AFTER THE FIRE IGNITES.
After the kindling fire has mostly burned, you can add standard firewood pieces until you have a fire of the
right size for the conditions.
CAUTION: PLACE THE WOOD LOGS FAR ENOUGH FROM THE GLASS TO ALLOW
PROPER PRIMARY AIR FLOW
4.2.3 TWO PARALLEL LOGS
Place two split logs in the firebox. Place a few sheets of twisted newspaper between the logs. Now place
some fine kindling across the two logs and some larger kindling across those, log cabin style. Light the
newspaper.
4.2.4 USING FIRE STARTERS
Many people like to use commercial fire starters instead of newspaper. Some of these starters are made of
sawdust and wax and others are specialized flammable solid chemicals. Follow the package directions for
use.
Gel starter may be used but only if there are no hot embers present. Use only in a cold firebox to start a
fire.
DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA, FUEL OIL, MOTOR
OIL, OR AEROSOLS TO START OR REKINDLE THE FIRE.
4.3 MAINTAINING WOOD FIRES
4.3.1 GENERAL ADVICE
Wood heating with a space heater is very different than other forms of heating. There will be variations in
the temperature in different parts of the house and there will be variations in temperature throughout the
day and night. This is normal, and for experienced wood burners these are advantages of zone heating
with wood.
Do not expect steady heat output from your fireplace. It is normal for its surface temperature to rise after a
new load of wood is ignited and for its temperature to gradually decline as the fire progresses. This rising
and falling of temperature can be matched to your household routines. For example, the area temperature
can be cooler when you are active, such as when doing housework or cooking, and it can be warmer when
you are inactive, such as when reading or watching television.
IMPORTANT : Wood burns best in cycles. A cycle starts when a new load of wood is ignited by hot coals
and ends when that load has been consumed down to a bed of charcoal about the same size as it was
The conventional way to build a wood fire is to bunch up 5 to
10 sheets of plain newspaper and place them in the firebox.
Next, place 10 or so pieces of fine kindling on the
newspaper. This kindling should be very thin; less than 1”
(25 mm). Next, place some larger kindling pieces on the fine
kindling. Open the air control fully and light the newspaper. If
you have a tall, straight venting system you should be able
to close the door immediately and the fire will ignite. Once
the fire has ignited, close the door and leave the air control
fully open.
