Do Not Burn List
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower
emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to
softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods. DO NOT BURN:
(1) Garbage;
(2) Lawn clippings or yard waste;
(3) Materials containing rubber, including tires;
(4) Materials containing plastic;
(5) Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners, or asphalt products;
(6) Materials containing asbestos;
(7) Construction or demolition debris;
(8) Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood;
(9) Manure or animal remains;
(10) Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water saturated materials;
(11) Unseasoned wood; or
(12) Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or particleboard. The prohibition against
burning these materials does not prohibit the use of fire starters made from paper,
cardboard, saw dust, wax and similar substances for the purpose of starting a fire in an
affected wood heater.
Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render the heater
ineffective and cause smoke.
