4.3 Blower Operation
A blower is already installed on this stove The blower is
installed on the back of the stove to increase the airflow
through the heat exchanger and improve hot air circulation
in the room. When used regularly, the blower can provide a
small increase in efficiency, up to 2%. However, the use of
a blower should not be used as a way to gain more output
from a stove that is undersized for the space it is intended
to heat..
Figure 8: Air flow with a blower
The blower has a variable speed control that can be adjusted
in three different positions; either from high (HI) to low (LO) or
closed (OFF).
Allow the stove to reach operating temperature (approximately
one hour) before turning on the blower, since increased airflow
from the blower will remove heat and affect the start up
combustion efficiency.
The stove is also equipped with a heat sensor (thermodisc).
When the blower is on (position between HI and LO), the heat
sensor will make the blower start automatically when the stove
is hot enough and will stop it when the stove has cooled down.
Therefore, the blower variable speed control can be left at the
desired setting.

5. Burning Wood Efficiently
5.1 First Use
Two things happen when burning the first few fires; the paint cures and the internal components are
conditioned. As the paint cures, some of the chemicals vaporize. The vapors are not poisonous,
but they smell bad. Fresh paint fumes can also trigger false alarms in smoke detectors. When
lighting the heater for the first few times, it may be wise to open doors and windows to ventilate
the house.
Burn two or three small fires to begin the curing and conditioning process. Then build bigger
and hotter fires until there is no longer paint smell from the stove. As hotter and hotter fires are
burned, more of the painted surfaces reach the curing temperature of the paint. The smell of
curing paint does not disappear until one or two very hot fires have been burned.
Ensure the blower cord is not in contact
with any surface of the stove to prevent
electrical shock or fire damage. Do not run
cord underneath the stove.
