INTRODUCTION
Take note that this furnace operates like an EPA wood burning stove. This applies to the firing,
the embers and the minimum combustion air which depends on the type and the grade of the
combustible.
This model line is certified as meeting the emissions limits in 40 C.F.R. part 60, section 60.532
(B) per EPA methods 28 and 5G-3, February 1988.
To optimize the efficiency of your furnace, follow the following advices:
Respect the local codes (when in doubt, consult your local dealer).
Make sure your furnace is installed according to the instructions on the certification plate.
All controls adjustments must be performed by a qualified technician. The controls settings
and the blower speed must conform to the recommendations of the Warm Air Heating and Air
Conditioning National Association and respect the recommended static pressure ranges in the
warm air plenum of the furnace (see General Technical data, static pressure).
The wood burning Caddy Add-on furnace is approved for in-line connection to an
existing oil furnace with a firing rate of 0.8 G.P.H. (US) to 1.2 G.P.H. (US) or any gas or
electric furnace with comparable heat output.
1. CHIMNEY AND DRAFT
This furnace must be connected to a chimney certified for wood burning heating appliances; a
7” connector and chimney is highly recommended.
If draft exceed –0.06 in. W.C a barometric damper should be installed on the smoke pipe.
Never install a manual damper.
The barometric damper must be adjusted so that the maximum draft measured at the
furnace outlet does not exceed -0.06 in. w.c. Please note that a draft exceeding -0.06 in. w.c.
could produce an uncontrollable fire.
On the other hand, the minimum draft required is -0.04
in. w.c. in the evacuation pipe on the wood side.
2. SAFETY RULES
