PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
QUESTIONS TO ASK LOCAL BUILDING OFFICIAL
A correct installation is critical and imperative for reduc-
ing fire hazards and perilous conditions that can arise
when wood burning appliances are improperly installed.
The installer must follow all of the manufacturers’ instruc-
tions.
FLOOR PROTECTION
This appliance requires a heat resistant non-combustible
approved fireplace hearth or hearth extension. If a hearth
extension is used it must be a 3/8" (minimum) noncom-
bustible material or equivalent. If the floor protection is to
be stone, tile, brick, etc., it must be mortared or grouted
to form a continuous non-combustible.
The installation of a wood burning appliance must con-
form to local codes and applicable state and federal re-
quirements. Familiarity with these requirements before
installation is essential. Important considerations to dis-
cuss with local building officials include:
This protected area must extend a minimum of 18" to the
front of the fuel door opening and 8" beyond both sides
of the fuel door opening
HEARTH PROTECTION
1.
Applicable codes (i.e. Uniform Mechanical Code,
State or Regional Codes.)
Electrical codes: The blower system has a flexible
electrical cord that must be electrically grounded
per local codes or per electrical codes:

CHIMNEY INSPECTION
The existing fireplace should be inspected by a local fire
marshal or qualified installer for adequate serviceability
prior to installing this appliance.
2. Local amendments?
3. Is a permit required - cost?
(You may wish to contact your insurance company to
ask if they require this).
4. Rooms where the installation is not allowed?
Factory built fireplace: If any portion of the chimney
system shows signs of structural or mechanical weak-
nesses, such as: cracks, leaky joints, corroded or
warped surfaces. Look for obvious bulges in the lining,
which may indicate the need to replace that section
(use a bright flashlight. Any faulty portion must be re-
paired or replaced prior to installing this appliance.
Also, inspect the attic to see that the chimney has
proper clearance to combustible framing members.
SMOKE DETECTORS
Since there are always several potential sources of fire in
any home, we recommend installing smoke detectors. If
possible, install the smoke detector in a hallway adjacent
to the room (to reduce the possibility of occasional false
activation from the heat produced by the fireplace insert).
If your local code requires a smoke detector be installed
within the same room, you must follow the requirements
of your local code. Check with your local building de-
partment for requirements in your area.
Masonry fireplace: The chimney should have no
cracks, loose mortar, other signs of deterioration, or
blockage. Any necessary repairs should be done by a
qualified mason.
If the existing fireplace flue system is dirty or has some
obstruction in it, clean it. A dirty chimney can cause your
insert to smoke when refueling, and can result in a chim-
ney fire. An oversized chimney may result in less than
optimum performance. Installations into a large masonry
chimney may require a liner to improve performance.
IMPORTANT – THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT APPROVED
FOR INSTALLATION INTO A MANUFACTURED (MO-
BILE) HOME.

WARNING: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU OB-
SERVE THE MINIMUM CLEARANCES. DO NOT
STORE FIREWOOD WITHIN THIS CLEARANCE
SPACE. FAILURE TO MAINTAIN CLEARANCES TO
ALL COMBUSTIBLES MAY RESULT IN A HOUSE
FIRE.
There are listed clearances for your fireplace insert
which were determined in a Laboratory testing and must
be maintained.
DRAFT REQUIREMENTS
The appliance is merely one component of a larger sys-
tem. The other equally important component is the vent-
ing system. This is necessary for achieving the required
flow of combustion air to the fire chamber and for safely
removing unwanted combustion byproducts from the ap-
pliance. If the venting system's design does not promote
these ends, the system may not function properly. Poorly
functioning venting systems may create performance
problems as well as be a safety hazard (i.e. an oversized
chimney may result in less than optimum performance.
Installations into a large, masonry chimney may require a
liner to improve performance). A draft test should read
between .05” W.C. (inches water column) and .07" W.C.

American National Standards Institute ANSI/NFPA 211-92,
draft 1-7: A chimney or vent shall be so designed and con-
structed to develop a flow sufficient to completely remove all
flue and vent gases to the outside atmosphere. The venting
system shall satisfy the draft requirements of the connected
appliance in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
PROVIDE ADEQUATE AIR FOR COMBUSTION
In well insulated and weather tight homes, it may be diffi-
cult to establish a good draft up your chimney. The poor
draft is caused by a shortage of air in the house. To pro-
vide the needed air, crack a window on the windward
side of the house.
RAISED HEARTH
Note: Using a heat defector on the surround, does not reduce
clearances.
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
THE FRESH AIR REQUIREMENTS OF THIS APPLI-
ANCE MUST BE MET WITHIN THE SPACE WHERE IT
WILL BE INSTALLED.
Ventilation is essential when using a solid fuel burning
heater. The combustion process of this heater uses oxy-
gen from inside the dwelling and it may be necessary to
open a window or install a vent to provide make-up air
into a dwelling that is well insulated (modern construction
standards have resulted in homes that are highly energy-
efficient and that allow little heat loss and air transfer).
Other appliances in the dwelling also contribute to re-
moving air from the dwelling (i.e. clothes dryers, exhaust
fans, fireplaces, and other fuel burning appliances). If the
available fresh air delivery in the dwelling is insufficient to
support the demands of these appliances, problems can
result (i.e. excessive negative pressure can develop in
the dwelling which will affect the rate at which this appli-
ance can draft. See Draft Requirements on this page).

PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
FACTORY BUILT FIREPLACES
Venting Requirements for masonry fireplace:
This appliance is approved for installation into a listed
factory built solid fuel burning fireplace. The fireplace
firebox must accept the insert without modification other
than removing bolted or screwed together pieces such
as smoke shelf/deflectors, ash lips, screen or door
tracks and damper assemblies, that must be reinstalled
to restore the fireplace to its original operating condition
if the insert is removed and not replaced. The removal
of any part must not alter the integrity of the outer shell
of the pre-engineered fireplace cabinet in any way.
The fireplace damper must be secured in the open po-
sition. As a minimum, a flue extension past the fireplace
header is required. A preferred installation is a positive
flue connection (sealing the throat of the chimney). This
appliance requires the use of a 6” or 8” diameter flex or
rigid single wall pipe, minimum 24/25 MSG black or
blued steel connector pipe (stainless steel recom-
mended). Offsets can be handled with an offset adapter
(it aligns starter pipe with fireplace flue). For more in-
formation on the offset adapters, see pages 8 and 24.
Venting Requirements for factory built fireplace:
The fireplace damper must be secured in the open po-
sition. When installed into a Factory Built Fireplace this
appliance requires the use of an 8” to 6” offset adapter.
The offset adapter aligns the appliance flue outlet with
fireplace flue and reduces flue outlet from 8” to 6” di-
ameter (8 to 6” Offset Adapter, Cat. No. 14M79). If flue
alignment is not necessary, a 8” to 6” bell reducer can
be used in place of the offset adapter. The required
vent is 6” diameter flex or rigid, UL1777 listed 2100° HT
liner or equivalent. The liner must extend from the
adapter at the flue outlet of the appliance to termination.
Do not face seal over fireplace chimney cooling air sys-
tems.
FIREPLACE CHIMNEY MAXIMUM SIZE TO ENSURE
PROPER DRAFT (Applicable to Masonry Fireplace
installations only).
The fireplace insert flue size is 8 inches in diameter,
which is approximately 50 square inches, the minimum.
The maximum flue size should be no more than (3)
three times the cross sectional area of the size of the
fireplace insert flue collar. In this case, that would be no
larger than a 14 inch diameter stack (area = approx.
154 sq. inches). To calculate area for a square or rec-
tangular flue, see below.
Note: Formulas for calculating Area:
Calculating area of a circle:
π x r2 = Area (π = 3.1416, r = 1/2 diameter)
WARNING: Do not substitute the heat rated
2100°HT liner with any other type line or a fire
may result causing property damage, personal
injury or loss of life.
To calculate area of square or rectangle:
Width x Depth = Area
Notes:
MASONRY FIREPLACES
ꢀ
It may be necessary to use a full-length liner to
achieve adequate draft for the appliance. A draft
gauge should .05” W.C., to .07” W.C. for opti-
mum performance.

INSTALLATION
11. The floor of the fireplace is lower then the hearth,
turn the adjusting bolt (located at the bottom of the
groove in the rear of the insert firebox) clockwise
until insert is level. An extension socket wrench
will allow you to level the insert once it is com-
pletely installed by reaching over the top.
12. The skid plate (see following illustration) is pro-
vided for ease in completing the installation, and
allows the insert to slide easily into the fireplace.
Simply slip the skid plate under the adjustment
(leveling) bolt, slightly lift the front of the insert, and
push into place sliding along the skid plate
INSTALLATION STEPS
1. Remove all ashes from the fireplace.
2. Remove all materials inside the insert and set them
aside.
3. Remove the surround panel (face shield) and at-
tach insulation material provided using a nonflam-
mable adhesive (i.e. RTV High Temperature Sili-
cone).
4. Use a large piece of cardboard or other protective
material and place it in front of the fireplace to pro-
tect floor or carpet during installation.
5. Remove the insert from its wood pallet by removing
the screws.
6. Prepare chimney connection system as specified
for masonry or zero clearance fireplaces.
7. Set the insert on the protective cardboard laid out in
front of the fireplace centered in front of the fire-
place opening.
8. (Masonry Fireplace) Slide insert into the fireplace
far enough to attach the starter pipe or positive flue
connection (a minimum of a 8” diameter starter pipe
extending past the header is required). See * Note
on page 9.
9. (Factory Built Fireplace) Slide insert into the fire-
place far enough to attach connector to flue outlet.
See * Note on page 9.
10. Offsets can be handled using an offset adapter (it
aligns starter pipe with flue. See Offset Adapter,
page 24 for ordering information). Do not push in-
sert in completely until surround assembly is in-
stalled. Care should be used to ensure that this ad-
justable connector is oriented so it does not angle
downhill when positioned on the flue outlet on top of
insert.
13. Reaching over the top of the insert, install the
starter pipe in the stove flue outlet, or attach the
positive flue connection to the insert. See * Note on
page 9.

INSTALLATION
POSITIVE FLUE CONNECTION FOR MASONRY FIRE-
PLACE
A preferable installation is the positive flue connection (a posi-
tive seal between the flue extension and the chimney). This
can be achieved by using a filler plate. A filler plate can be
made by making a cardboard pattern to fit the fireplace throat.
Lay the pattern on 22 gage steel, add 2 inches to each side,
and cut. Snip corners and bend front lip up and sides and
back down. Cut an opening for the flue. Attach filler plate with
masonry screws.
A Professional should inspect chimney prior to installation to
determine if any repairs are necessary or if a chimney reline
is necessary.
The fireplace damper must be secured in the open position. If
this is not possible, it will be necessary to remove the damper.
Installation into a masonry fireplace requires as a minimum of
a flue extension past the header. This can be accomplished
by one of the following methods:
Install 6” or 8” smoke pipe if the chimney is located di-
rectly above the insert flue
The starter pipe extends through the filler plate, past the
damper and into the chimney system. Small air leaks
should be sealed with high temp fiberglass or ceramic
insulation.

PLATE
(Or) Install 6” or 8” flex pipe to achieve the same result.
Use an offset adapter (see page 24) to handle offsets. This

PROCUCT FEATURES AND CONTROLS
BLOWER SYSTEM
AIR AND DAMPER CONTROLS
The 500-CFM room air circulation blower system comes
equipped with a variable speed control (rheostat). The
blower system can be operated manually or set to oper-
ate automatically (so the blowers will turn on when the
insert is hot and turn off when the insert is cool). See
Care and Operation Section – Blower System on page
14.
CATALYTIC BYPASS DAMPER CONTROL
The bypass damper control handle is located on the front
of the insert (see above illustration). By pushing in or
pulling out the handle, the operator can route the ex-
haust either through the catalytic combustor (pushed in)
or directly up the flue (pulled out). When starting a fire or
refueling, the handle must be pulled out. Once the fire is
established it must be pushed in.
PRIMARY AIR CONTROL
The primary combustion air delivery is controlled by the
primary air control draft module (The control handle is
located above the fuel door). The heat output can be
controlled by sliding the handle to a higher or lower heat
output setting (see following illustrations). The fuel, the
amount of heat and burn times desired, the type of instal-
lation are all variables that will affect the control setting.
The same control settings in a variety of installations will
produce different results. You will need to try different
settings so you can learn how much heat to expect and
CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR
How it works: From 5 to 30 percent of the chemical en-
ergy contained in every log escapes up the chimney
when wood is burned in a conventional stove. The cata-
lytic combustor is designed to make use of this energy,
converting it into useful heat as it lessens chimney creo-
sote build-up and air pollution. The catalytic combustor
consists of a durable temperature resistant ceramic com-
position, which is extruded into a cellular, or honeycomb,
configuration. After extrusion, this ceramic monolith is
fired and then covered with a noble-metal catalyst. When
wood smoke contacts this catalyst, chemical changes
occur that causes the smoke to ignite at temperatures
around 600° F. Normally, smoke will ignite and burn only
at temperatures around 1000° F.

extended periods of time, the glass may get dirty.
A
short, hot fire (15 - 20 minutes) will help clean off much
of the normal buildup (see Troubleshooting). A commer-
cial glass cleaner designed for fireplace inserts is rec-
ommended for cleaning.
The glass should be cleaned thoroughly with glass
cleaner and a soft cloth BEFORE the fireplace insert
is burned.
DOOR GASKET
The door gasket must be kept in good condition. Do not
leave the stove burning with the door ajar or open. Leav-
ing the door ajar or open while the stove is burning will
cause excessive heat build up in the stove (overfiring)
and could ignite surrounding combustibles as well as
damage the stove (such damage is not covered by the
manufacturers warranty).
USE CONTROL SETTINGS THAT WORK FOR YOU
The fuel, the amount of heat you want, the type of instal-
lation you have and how long you wish the fire to burn
are all variables that will affect the control setting. The
same control settings in a variety of installations will pro-
duce different results.
DOOR HANDLE ASSEMBLY
The door handle assembly opens and securely latches
the fuel door closed. To open the door, rotate the coil
handle to the 9:00 position until door releases. To close
and latch, hold the coil handle in the 9:00 position, close
the door, then rotate the handle to the 6:00 position. See
illustration above.
Familiarize yourself with your fireplace insert by trying
different settings so you can learn how much heat to ex-
pect and how long the fire will burn. It may take a week
or two to learn but your patience will be rewarded by the
warmth and pleasant satisfaction that only a wood fire
can provide.
GLASS
The Glass is a super heat resistant ceramic that with-
stands continuous temperatures up to 1390° F. This tem-
perature is well beyond the temperatures in which you
operate your fireplace insert.

CARE AND OPERATION
BREAK-IN PERIOD
Your fireplace insert finish is a high temperature paint
that requires time and temperature to completely cure.
We recommend that you ventilate the house during the
initial burns. The paint emits non-toxic odors during this
process.
When refueling a hot stove with the catalyst still operating,
no refiring step is necessary. Just open the bypass, set the
primary air control to high, open the door approximately
1/2 inch, and wait for about thirty seconds. Load the fuel,
close the door, close the bypass and set the primary air
control to normal operation. Temperatures within the fire-
box should be hot enough to maintain the catalytic opera-
tion.
KEEP YOUR HOUSE WELL VENTILATED DURING
THE CURING PROCESS TO PREVENT ACTIVATION
OF YOUR HOME SMOKE DETECTOR.
HOW TO START AND MAINTAIN A FIRE
1. (If optional ash drawer is installed) Check to ensure
the ash dump cover (in center of firebox floor) is in
place and the ash drawer is closed.
2. Open the bypass damper control by pulling it toward
you. In the "OPEN" position the draft air will bypass
the catalytic combustor and make starting the fire eas-
ier.
The paint manufacturer recommends three burn cycles
to cure the paint. The first two burns should be low heat,
approximately 250°F., for 20 minutes each, using paper
and light kindling.
After each 20-minute burn, allow the appliance to cool
completely. The third burn should be at least medium
high or about 450°F. for 45 - 60 minutes. The paint will
become soft and emit non-toxic haze during these burns.
Keep the area well ventilated.
3. Set the primary air control lever on "HIGH". The
"HIGH" setting will maximize your primary combustion
air.
4. Build a fire directly on the firebrick covering the bottom
of the stove.
As the paint cures it will become slightly lighter in color.
Eventually the entire surface will become an even color.
Once the paint has been softened and cooled two or
three times, it will harden. Do not turn on a blower during
the curing process. Do not place anything on the fire-
place insert surface until the paint is completely cured.
Do not attempt to repaint the fireplace insert until the
paint is completely cured. If the surface later becomes
stained or marred, it may be lightly sanded and touched
up with spray paint from the same paint manufacturer
(See Maintenance – Repainting a Stove). Paint is avail-
able at your local authorized Lennox Hearth Products
dealer. Never attempt to paint a hot stove.
a. Place five or six loosely crumpled sheets of news-
paper in the stove.
b. Add a small amount of dry kindling randomly on
the top of the newspaper.
c. Place a few more loosely crumpled newspapers
on top of the kindling and light the bottom paper
first, then light the top paper.
5. Once the kindling is ignited and burning on its own,
close the fuel door. The upper fire should help preheat
the chimney and create an effective draft while the
lower fire ignites the kindling.
6. When the kindling is burning well, add increasingly
larger pieces of wood until the fire is actively burning.
7. When the fire is well established, use the damper
hook and close the bypass by pushing the control rod
in (catalytic temperature probe should read 500-
600°F, takes approximately 20 - 25 minutes to reach
this temperature).
CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR
During the start-up of a cold stove, a medium to high firing
rate must be maintained for about 20 minutes. The high
firing rate will ensure that the stove, the flue, the catalyst,
and the fuel are all stabilized at proper operating tempera-
tures. Even though it's possible to have temperatures in
the stove reach 600°F. within two or three minutes after
the fire is started, do not set the primary air control lever to
the "LOW" position until approximately twenty minutes
have passed. Setting the primary air control on "LOW" too
early could result in either the fire or the catalytic combus-
tor going out.
8. When the fire is well-established slide the air control
lever for the desired heat output.
REFUELING
To refuel the stove, open the bypass and move the pri-
mary air control to "HIGH". Let the fire "LIVEN UP" for
about one minute. Open the fuel door about 1/2" and hold
in this position about 30 seconds or until the stove is draft-
ing well. Open the door and add wood. After refueling, re-
set the primary draft control to the desired position, and
close the bypass when the catalytic temperature probe
reaches operating temperatures.
At the end of a burn cycle, it's possible that the hot embers
remaining might not provide sufficient fuel value for the
catalyst to retain its minimum operating temperature of
600°F. During the refueling, we recommend that the stove
be refired for about 10 minutes with the bypass open to
ensure a good draw is established and that the catalyst
reaches 600° F. The refiring will ensure sufficient tempera-
tures and proper amounts of volatiles for the catalyst to

CARE AND OPERATION
BLOWER SYSTEM
The Blower System consists of a ON/OFF rocker switch,
a variable speed blower speed control switch (rheostat),
a thermally activated switch (fan disc) and 4 axial blow-
ers.
WARNING: This appliance is equipped with a blower
system which has a flexible electrical power cord
with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protec-
tion against shock hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three-prong recep-
tacle per local codes or NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70-latest
edition. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong
from the power cord plug.
When starting a fire, leave the blower system off until the
insert is thoroughly heated (approx. 30 minutes after start
up).
The blowers can be operated in one of the following
manners:
BLOWER SPECIFICATIONS: 115 Volt, 60 Hz, 4 axial
blowers - .42 amps each, 125 CFM each (500 CFM to-
tal). Blower system has a flexible electrical cord that
must be electrically grounded per local codes or NEC,
ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition. Do not route the power
cord under or in front of the appliance.
AUTO: Turn Rocker Switch to the OFF "o" position and
the rheostat to the ON position (rotate rheostat dial clock-
wise until it clicks). When the insert warms up (110° F),
the blower will automatically turn on (adjust rheostat dial
to the desired speed setting). When the insert cools down
(90° F), the blowers will automatically turn off.
MANUAL: Turn Rocker Switch to the ON "-" position
and adjust rheostat dial to the desired speed. The
Blower will have to be manually turned off by rotating
the rheostat dial counterclockwise until it clicks.
CAUTION: Burning the insert at a high burn rate for
extended periods without running the blowers can
cause excessive temperatures resulting in overfir-
ing damage to the appliance. Overfiring damage is
not covered under the 5 year prorated warranty.

MAINTENANCE
BURN RECOMMENDED FUEL
Wood that is kept outdoors, either covered with a tarp, or
not covered at all, will not burn well until it has been in an
enclose space for one to two months.
This appliance is approved for use with natural dry wood
only. Burning materials other than natural wood will shorten
the life of the catalytic combustor. Do not burn particleboard
or pressed logs using bonding agents as they can produce
conditions which will deteriorate metal or damage the cata-
lyst. Green or uncured wood does not work well as fuel,
and can cause increased creosote buildups and plugging
of the catalytic combustor. The value of green wood as a
source of heat is limited. Do not overload or use kindling
wood or mill ends for primary fuel as this may cause overfir-
ing. Overfiring is a condition where excessive temperatures
are reached, beyond the design capabilities of the fireplace
insert. The damage that occurs from overfiring is not cov-
ered under the fireplace insert warranty.
SMALL AREA PAINT TOUCH-UP
The stove body is painted with a quality high-
temperature stove paint. Use only model TSPK-B Stove
Paint, Catalog # 70K99. Do not touch-up your stove with
any other paint.
Using one small piece of 320 grit sand paper and lightly
sand the blemish so that the edges are “feathered” or
smooth to the touch between the painted and bare sur-
faces. Do not let the sand paper gum up with paint, as
this will cause scratches on the metal surface. If there
are any scratches, use 600 grit sandpaper instead. Mask
off surfaces you do not want painted. Paint lightly over
the bare surface first as this will act as an undercoat.
Then paint over a larger area in smooth even strokes to
blend.
WHY SEASON WOOD?
The key to the success of a good fire that produces heat
from a wood burning insert is the wood. It needs to be well-
seasoned natural wood.
What does “Well-Seasoned” mean?
See Break-In Period on page 13 for information on
curing the paint.
When a tree is cut down, the wood is green, full of sap and
moisture. This moisture content can exceed 80%, which
must be reduced to less than 20%. Wood properly sea-
soned is then capable of generating the heat the fireplace
insert was designed to provide.
FIREBRICK
The firebrick should be inspected periodically and re-
placed if damaged (crumbling or excessively cracked).
ASH REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL
Green wood does not burn easily. Attempting to burn green
wood often results in a lot of smoke and very little fire. Time
is the most important factor in seasoning wood. Ideally the
moisture content should be reduced to 11-20%, although
very few of us will be able to check that figure. There are
several steps that should be taken to ensure that that you
come close to these figures.
CAUTION: Make sure that the fire is out and the
stove is cold before removing ashes! (If optional ash
drawer is installed) Never burn your stove with the
ash dump cover off!
Ashes can hold live embers for several days, and must
be disposed of with care.
SEASONING GUIDE
Softwoods – 6 months to 18 months
Hardwoods – 12 months to 24 months
(If the optional ash drawer is installed) Scrape ashes
from the firebox through ash dump opening into ash
drawer. After emptying, clean and replace the ash
drawer.
Logs that are 5” diameter across or larger should be split in
half, three pieces if over 8 inches, and four pieces when
over a foot across. If the tree was fell 2 to 4 years ago, it
still needs to be cut, split, and seasoned for 6 to 24 months
depending on the wood.
NEVER place ashes in a cardboard box or any other
combustible receptacle.
Proper Disposal of Ashes:
WOOD STORAGE
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight
fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be
placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well
away from all combustible materials, pending final dis-
posal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or
other wise locally dispersed, they should be retained in
the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly
cooled.
Wood to be seasoned should be stacked in an area open
enough to ensure good air circulation on both sides – leav-
ing adequate space between woodpiles to walk comfort-
able. Do not stack wood against a wall or building. It helps
to elevate the woodpiles off the ground (two 2 x 4’s running
lengthwise beneath the woodpile works well). This allows
air to flow under the bottom logs.

MAINTENANCE
DOOR / GLASS GASKET AND ASH DUMP GASKET
A 3/4" spun fiberglass gasket provides the seal around
the fuel door and a flat spun fiberglass rope gasket (1/8”
x 1”) provides the seal around the glass. If the optional
ash drawer is installed, a cerawool pad (4 1/4” x 8 3/8” x
1/2”) provides the seal for the ash dump cover. Should
these gaskets become frayed or damaged, they should
be replaced with the same size and type as the original
gasket. Contact your dealer for ordering. Use high tem-
perature silicone sealer as an adhesive for replacing
door and ash dump gaskets. The glass gasket has a
self-adhesive backing.
fore installations using this type of flue are more suscep-
tible to creosote deposits.
To inhibit the build up of creosote, adjust the primary air
control to a medium-high or high setting for a 10-minute
period each day. Do not attempt to burn out heavy creo-
sote accumulations in this manner. This must be re-
moved from the chimney by scraping or brushing to re-
duce the risk of a chimney fire.
Burn Approved Fuel Only - This stove is approved for
burning dry seasoned natural wood only. Using green or
inadequately seasoned wood may increase creosote
buildup.
WARNING: The gaskets must be kept in good condi-
tion. Do not leave the stove burning with the fuel
door open or ash dump cover off. This will cause
excessive heat build up in the unit and could ignite
surrounding combustibles as well as damage the
stove by overfiring it. Overfiring is a condition where
excessive temperatures are reached, beyond the de-
sign capabilities of the stove (such damage is not
covered by the manufacturer's warranty).
Inspection Frequency - The chimney connector and
chimney should be inspected at least twice monthly dur-
ing the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup
has occurred. If creosote has accumulated it should be
removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
Cleaning - Remove the catalytic combustor and open
the bypass damper prior to having your chimney cleaned
(should be done by a qualified chimney sweep). See
Maintenance, Catalytic Combustor, on page 17 for in-
structions on removing catalytic combustor.
SERVICING GLASS
IMPORTANT: Make sure the bypass damper is in the
open position prior to chimney cleaning.
CAUTION: Be careful not to abuse door assembly by
striking or slamming it. If the door assembly or glass is
broken or damaged, they must be replaced before heater
can be safely operated. Use only components provided
by the manufacturer as replacement parts. Cleaning
Glass: Ensure stove is cold prior to cleaning glass. A
commercial glass cleaner designed for stoves is recom-
mended. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
In the event of a chimney fire - Make sure the fuel door
is securely closed. Adjust the primary air control to the
lowest (most closed) setting. Call the fire department
immediately. After a chimney fire, the complete chimney
system should be checked by a qualified technician be-
fore further use.
Replacing Glass:
Consult your dealer for suggestions on proper chimney
care. Contact your local municipal or provincial fire au-
thority for information on how to handle a chimney fire.
Have a clearly understood plan for handling a chimney
fire.
1. Remove door from stove by lifting door up and off
hinge pins: Place the door on a flat protected (towel)
clean flat surface with the inside of the door facing up.
Remove the glass clips (by removing screws holding
clips), then carefully remove broken glass one piece
at a time (protective gloves are recommended).
2. Clean area where the glass with gasket will be in-
stalled.
3. Install new glass with gasket (use only factory 5-mm
glass with glass channel gasket. Do not substitute).
Carefully reinstall glass clips. Be very careful not to
overtighten screws.
CATALYST REPLACEMENT
The normal expected life of a catalytic combustor is
10,000 to 12,000 hours (if appliance is operated correctly
and proper fuels are used). If the catalyst has been de-
activated, it should be replaced. Symptoms of deactiva-
tion include – noticeably darker smoke exiting chimney
and less heat output. If these symptoms remain after
normal maintenance or a major cleaning (soak in heated
vinegar / water solution, see page 17), the catalyst
probably needs replacement. Also, if the catalyst is bro-
ken and/or missing large pieces, it should be replaced.
4. Reinstall door.
CREOSOTE FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL
What is Creosote - When wood is burned slowly, it pro-
duces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with
expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors
condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-
burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates
on the flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes an
extremely hot fire. Also, creosote deposits tend to form in
long runs of venting where gases become too cool prior
to exhausting. Note: Single wall pipe cools rapidly, there-
Note: The catalyst does not need to be glowing to be
working. It will glow at times, but it can work very effec-
tively at temperatures well below the 1000° F level at
which it will begin to glow.

MAINTENANCE
CLEANING BLOWERS
REMOVING COMBUSTOR CLIP
The blowers require inspection and cleaning annually to
remove lint, dust, etc. If there are pets in the dwelling,
the blowers should be cleaned at least twice a year To
access, remove blower covers (remove the two ¼” hex
head screws on each panel), then inspect propellers
(replace if cracked or broken) and vacuum out lint, dust,
and debris.
CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR
This appliance has been designed with a catalytic com-
bustor, which will improve its overall performance. Re-
moving the combustor assembly for cleaning and rein-
stallation is simple and convenient. Cleaning the com-
bustor helps reduce buildup of ash and retarding chemi-
cals. To clean the combustor, a soft brush, vacuum
cleaner, or pipe cleaner may be used.
Cleaning the combustor once a year, preferably when
your flue system is serviced, is sufficient for most users.
Reinstall the combustor according to the following in-
structions.
The catalytic activity and effectiveness of a two to three
year old combustor can be improved by following this
Major Cleaning Procedure - Soak the combustor in a
hot cleaning solution of a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar
and distilled water for 30 minutes. Then rinse by soak-
ing in hot distilled water. After 15 minutes, remove the
combustor from the rinse water and gently shake out
excess water. It is unlikely that you will notice a visible
difference in the combustor after this cleaning proce-
dure. The combustor unit is fragile in comparison to the
rest of the stove, so handle with care.
1. Place the combustor on the tunnel baffle as shown
in illustration (ceramic honeycomb to the back and
louvered slots to the front). Push it back into the tun-
nel baffle until it hits the positioning stops. Make
sure it is sitting flat against the bottom and the sides
so that it does not tilt forward and jump the position-
ing stops.
2. Position combustor clip over the middle of the sec-
ondary air tube as illustrated. Make sure that one of
the holes in the secondary air tube is centered in the
1/2" hole on the clip. You can feel with your fingertip.
3. Tighten screw snugly, but do not over-tighten or you
may spread the clip apart.

TROUBLESHOOTING
* SMOKES OUT FUEL DOOR WHEN OPEN
1. The primary air control is closed.
2. The chimney is too cool. Set the primary air con-
trol on "HIGH" with the bypass damper control
"OPEN" for a few minutes before opening the fuel
door.
3. Excess creosote will not only restrict your draft
but it will create a risk of a creosote fire. Strictly
adhere to maintenance requirements as outlined
in this manual. If excess creosote has built up on
the inside of the firebox sides and door, burn a
small hot fire at intervals that are more frequent
with air control on HIGH for a few minutes.
4. Deposits may have built up in the chimney and
are restricting the draft, or the spark arrester on
top of the chimney may be plugged.
* DOES NOT MAINTAIN A FIRE
1. Soft wood does not burn as long or as well as seasoned
hardwood resulting in a short burn time.
2. Wood size too small. Burns at too rapid a rate.
3. The gasket seal on the fuel door, ash dump cover or
glass is leaking air. Repair or replace it if necessary.
4. There is an obstruction in the chimney.
5. The stove was not up to normal operating temperature
before the bypass damper control was pushed closed.
6. Excessive draft.
* BACKPUFFING
1. Downdraft in the chimney (may need a special wind
cap).
2. The catalytic combustor is too hot (avoid burning
soft, pitchy woods, or large amounts of small-
diameter wood).
5. Chimney diameter too large or too small to pro-
vide adequate draft.
3
The house is too air tight (ventilation is needed).
6. The house is too airtight (usually takes 20 to 30
minutes for problem to appear as stove lowers air
pressure in house). Crack a window open or pro-
vide an outside source of air near stove.
7. Insufficient vertical height to chimney to achieve
adequate draft.
4. Insufficient vertical height to chimney to achieve
adequate draft.
ODORS
1. Creosote accumulation in firebox (brush out on next
cleaning).
8. The combustor is plugged from engaging too
soon (remove combustor and clean, see Mainte-
nance section).
2. Chimney downdraft when stove is not operating
(close primary air control).
3. Catalytic combustor not functioning.
4. Paint curing on first several burns.
* DOES NOT PRODUCE ENOUGH HEAT
1. Using green or insufficiently cured wood.
2. Excessive draft.
* DIRTY GLASS
1. Poor draft conditions.
3. High ceilings (heat rises quickly, but can be recir-
culated by a well-placed ceiling fan with a win-
ter/summer switch).
2. Long burn periods at low draft settings.
3. Burning wet, pitchy or spongy wood.
4. Poorly arranged logs (too close to glass).
4. The area to heat, is too large (square foot heating
estimates are based on "average" climates and
home design.)
5. There's an obstruction in the chimney.
6. The chimney or chimney cap is restricted by
creosote preventing enough draw to sustain a
"HIGH" heat rate.
* Draft problems; If installing into a larger flue, it
may be necessary to use a full length liner to
achieve adequate draft for the appliance. A draft
gauge should read a minimum of .05" W.C.
(inches water column) not to exceed .07" W.C.
for optimum performance (see Draft Require-
ments).
7. Combustor light off has not occurred.

TROUBLESHOOTING
OVERFIRING
Overfiring Caused From Improper Operation
Never burn the appliance with the fuel door open or
ajar, the ash dump cover off or the ash drawer open (if
optional ash drawer is installed). Never burn the stove
with the bypass handle in the open position once the
fire has been established or the air control in the "high"
position for extended periods.
If any part of the appliance glows, it is overfiring.
Other symptoms may include: Cracking, warping or
burning out of components, catalytic combustor may
deteriorate, gold doors may turn color, stove glass
may develop a haze which will not come off with
cleaning, firebox baffle plate (tunnel baffle) may
warp, etc.
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 fireplace insert. Should the fuel
door, ash dump (if optional ash drawer is installed) or
glass gaskets become worn or damaged, they should
be replaced.
Overfiring of a fireplace insert is a condition where
excessive temperatures are reached, beyond the
design capabilities of the appliance (as outlined the
following 4 paragraphs). The damage that occurs
from overfiring is not covered under the manufactur-
ers limited warranty. The following are a few condi-
tions that should be evaluated and (corrected if nec-
essary) if an overfiring condition is suspected:
Overfiring Caused From Improper Fuel
This appliance is approved for use with natural dry well
seasoned wood only (consult your dealer for approved
fuels in your area). Do not burn garbage, particleboard
scraps, or pressed logs using bonding agents because
they can produce conditions that will deteriorate metal.
Green or uncured wood does not work well as fuel, and
can cause increased creosote buildups. Do not over-
load or use kindling wood or mill ends as primary fuel.
Overfiring Caused From Improper Installation
The venting system must satisfy the draft Re-
quirements of the appliance. The appliance is
merely one component of a larger system. The
other equally important component is the venting
system, which is necessary for achieving the re-
quired flow of combustion air to the fire chamber
and for safely removing unwanted combustion
byproducts from the appliance. If the venting sys-
tem’s design does not promote these ends, the
system may not function properly, which may
create performance problems as well as may be
a safety hazard. To ensure that all installation re-
quirements have been met as outlined in the in-
stallation 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 appliance are being met. A draft gauge
should read between .05 and .07 inches water
column (W.C.I.). Excessive draft (above .07
W.C.I.) will allow too much combustion air to be
pulled into the firebox, which results in hotter
burns. Too little draft (below .05 W.C.I.) will not
allow enough combustion air delivery to maintain
a fire well or cause performance problems such
as smoking (this may result in improper operation
of appliance, i.e. will not maintain fire well unless
catalytic bypass is left open, or with fuel door left
open – see Overfiring Caused From Improper
Operation).
