OVERFIRING DAMAGE
If the heater or chimney connector glows, you are overfir-
ing. Other symptoms may include: Cracking, warping or
burning out of components, stove glass may develop a
haze, which will not come off with cleaning.
Overfiring of a stove is a condition where excessive tem-
peratures are reached, beyond the design capabilities of
the appliance. The damage that occurs from overfiring is
not covered under the manufacturer’s limited warranty.
The following are a few conditions that should be evalu-
ated and (corrected if necessary) if an overfiring condi-
tion is suspected:
Overfiring Caused From Improper Installation
- En-
sure that all installation requirements have been met as
outlined in the installation manual. The chimney should
be clean and in good repair. A draft test should be per-
formed to determine if the draft requirements of the ap-
pliance are being met. A draft gauge should read be-
tween .05 and .07 inches water column (" W.C.). Exces-
sive draft (above .07 " W.C.) will allow too much combus-
tion air to be pulled in which results in hotter burns. Too
little draft (below .05 " W.C.) will not allow enough com-
bustion air delivery to maintain a fire (this may result in
improper operation of appliance, i.e. won't maintain fire
unless fuel door is left open. See
Care and Operation
section).
Overfiring Caused From Improper Operation - Oper-
ate this appliance only as outlined in this manual. Never
burn the appliance with the fuel door open or ajar. Do not
operate this stove with the Air Control in the "open" posi-
tion (pulled out) for extended periods. This wastes fuel
and can cause dangerous overfiring conditions. NEVER
leave the stove unattended on high settings.
Overfiring Caused From Improper Maintenance -
Strictly adhere to all maintenance requirements at fre-
quent intervals as prescribed in this manual including
cleaning of flue and stove. Should the fuel door gasket or
glass gasket become worn or damaged, it should be re-
placed.
Overfiring Caused From Improper Fuel - This appli-
ance is approved for use with natural dry well seasoned
wood only (ask your authorized dealer what are ap-
proved fuels for your area). Do not burn garbage, parti-
cleboard scraps, or pressed logs using bonding agents
because they can produce conditions that will deteriorate
metal. Do not overload or use kindling wood or mill ends
as primary fuel as this may cause overfiring.
