OPERATING TIPS
1. Always use dry, seasoned fi rewood, up to 18"
long. Load wood endwise, a mixture of large
and small pieces, on top of a good ash base
(1" minimum).
2. Operate on a medium to high setting, for up
to 1 hour from cold start. After the initial warm
up period, refuel and leave the air control on a
medium setting for 5 to 10 minutes more and
then set the air control to the desired position.
3. If a slow burn is desired, set the air control to
low. Active secondary burning should be present
above the wood load. If it is not present or goes
out shortly after, proper operating temperature
has not been reached and the stove needs ad-
ditional warm up time.
Understanding & Operating Your Pacifi c Energy Stove
The Pacifi c Energy SUPER SERIES line of
woodstoves is a culmination of years of research
and development. Designed to be efficient,
clean-burning and user-friendly, this heater will
give you years of warm service. However, a
knowledgeable operator is still the most impor-
tant factor for maximum performance and part
of this is understanding the basic functions of
this design.
Traditional wood stoves had a basic combustion
system which allowed a considerable amount of
heat energy to escape up the chimney as un-
burned gases and particulates (smoke). Pacifi c
Energy has designed a system that solves the
problem by burning the smoke and releasing
the additional heat to the room.
This system has two critical design features:
1. Above fi re secondary air injection:
The hollow "air baffle" injects super-heated sec-
ondary air just above the load. With the stove
at the proper operating temperature, this will
create a secondary fl ame that will be evident for
approximately 1/3 of the total burn time.
2. High mass and thermal insulation:
The high mass (weight) acts as a heat storage
and the thermal insulation keeps the combustion
zone hot. Active fl aming takes place during the
fi rst part of the burn. During this stage, heat is
stored in the mass of the unit and is later released
slowly and evenly. As wood chars, active fl aming
will diminish. This clean charcoal burning stage
will last for a considerable length of time and
refuelling should be avoided until the charcoal
base has become quite small.
