This manual describes the installation and operation of theAlderlea,T5 Freestanding wood heater.This heater meets
the 2015 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's crib wood emission limits for wood heaters sold after May 15, 2015.
Under specic test conditions this heater has been shown to deliver heat at rates ranging from 11,100 to 34,600 Btu/hr.
NOTE: WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS BE INSTALLED IN THE
AREA WHERE THE HEATER IS TO BE INSTALLED.
If smoke detectors have been previously installed, you may notice that they are operating more frequently. This may be due
to curing of stove paint or fumes caused by accidentally leaving the re door open. Do not disconnect the detectors.
SAFETY NOTICE: If this stove is not properly installed, a house re may result. For your safety, follow the installa-
tion instructions. Contact local building or re officials about restrictions and installation inspection requirements
in you area.
Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new room heater. Failure to follow instructions may result in
property damage, bodily injury, or even death.

Safety and Maintenance
1. Burn only dry, well seasoned wood. The denser or heavier the wood when dry, the
greater its heat value.This is why hardwoods are generally preferred. Green or wet wood
should not be used, as it will reduce heat output, as well as contributing signicantly to
creosote buildup.
2. Remove ashes frequently and only when the stove is cold. Too much ash could cause
embers to roll out the door when it is opened. This may pose a re hazard. For proper
operation, maintain a 1"(25mm) minimum ash base.
3. If glass becomes darkened from slow burning or poor wood, it can readily be cleaned with
replace glass cleaner when stove is cold. Never scrape with an object or use abrasive
cleaners that might scratch the glass. The type and amount of deposit on the glass is
a good indication of the ue pipe and chimney buildup. A light brown dusty deposit that
is easily wiped off usually indicates good combustion and dry, well-seasoned wood,
therefore relatively clean pipes and chimney. On the other hand, a black greasy deposit
that is difficult to remove is a result of wet and green wood and too slow a burning rate.
This will also create heavy deposit buildup in the chimney.
4. DOOR GASKETS - The gasket used by Pacic Energy (5/16"(8mm) medium density
berglass rope) requires only light pressure to seal. This will prolong seal life. It is
important that the door seal be maintained in good condition. Periodically inspect seals
and replace if necessary. Follow instructions included in the door gasket kit obtainable
from your nearest Pacic Energy dealer.
5. DOOR GLASS - Do not slam loading door or otherwise impact glass. When closing door,
make sure that no logs protrude to impact the glass. If the glass gets cracked or broken,
it must be replaced before using the stove. Replacement glass can be obtained from
your dealer. Use ceramic glass only. Do not substitute with any other type.
GLASS SIZE – 17.25”(438mm) x 11.375”(289mm) x 5mm
To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws and remove clamps, noting position
for re-assembly. Remove all particles of glass. Be careful as they are very sharp. Install new
glass complete with gasket. Replace clamps and screws.
6. Do not store wood within heater installation clearances, or within the space required for
fuel loading and ash removal. Keep the area around the heater clean and free of loose
combustibles, furniture, newspapers, etc.
7. If the heater requires cleaning, use mild soap and water only. Use of abrasive cleaners
will void warranty.
8. Establish a routine for fuelling and ring the heater. Check daily for creosote buildup until
experience shows how often you need to clean the chimney to be safe.
9. Be aware that the hotter the re, the less creosote is deposited. Weekly cleaning may
be necessary in mild weather, even though monthly cleaning is usually enough in the
coldest months when burning rates are higher.
10. Instruct all members of your family on the safe operation of the heater. Ensure they
have enough knowledge of the entire system if they are expected to operate it. Study
the section on chimney res and the importance of following the steps outlined "In Case
of Chimney Fire".
WARNING:
Never use chemicals or any other volatile
liquid to start a re. Do not burn garbage,
or ammable uids such as gasoline,
naptha, or engine oil. We strongly
recommend that smoke detectors be
installed.
CAUTION:
• tighten screws very carefully, do not over-
tighten
• do not clean glass when hot
• do not use abrasive cleaners on glass
WARNING:
Only use materials supplied by
manufacturer when doing maintenence
or replacements.

When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which com-
bine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapours condense in
the relatively cool chimney ue of a slow burning re. As a result, creosote residue
accumulates on the ue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely
hot re. The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected periodically (at
least once every two months) during the heating season to determine if a creosote
buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated (3 mm. or more), it should be
removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re.
1. Highest smoke densities and emissions occur when a large amount of wood
is added to a bed of hot coals and the air inlet is closed. The heated wood
generates smoke, but without ample air, the smoke cannot burn. Smoke-free,
clean burning requires small fuel loads, two or three logs at a time or 1/4 to 1/2
of fuel load and leaving the air inlet relatively wide open, especially during the
rst 10 to 30 minutes after each loading, when most of the smoke generating
reactions are occurring. After 30 minutes or so, the air inlet can be turned down
substantially without excessive smoke generation. Wood coals create very little
creosote-producing smoke.
2. The cooler the surface over which the wood smoke is passing, the more creo-
sote will be condensed. Wet or green wood contributes signicantly to creo-
sote formation as the excess moisture that is boiled off cools the re, making
it difficult for the tars and gases to ignite, thus creating dense smoke and poor
combustion. This moisture-laden smoke cools the chimney, compounding the
problem by offering the smoke the ideal place to condense.
In summary, a certain amount of creosote is inevitable and must be lived with.
Regular inspection and cleaning is the solution. The use of dry, seasoned wood
and ample combustion air will help to minimize annoying smoke emissions and
creosote buildup.
Chimney Fires
Excessive creosote build-up can cause a chimney re. Creosote comes from tar and organic
vapours released from a slow burning wood re. Flammable creosote will condense and
accumulate in the lining of a relatively cool chimney. When ignited, this creosote can result
in an extremely hot re.
Avoiding a Chimney Fire
There are two ways to avoid chimney res:
1. Keep your chimney clear of creosote build-up by cleaning your chimney before each
burn season, and as necessary (accumulations of 3 mm/1/8” or more) during the
season.
2. Burn clean, well-seasoned wood only (seasoned at least one year). Avoid wet or
green wood.
3. Do not burn household trash, cardboard, plastics, construction lumber, treated or
beach wood (as these will corrode your replace and void your
warranty).
4. Do not leave the air inlet wide-open for extended periods of time.
5. Keep a re extinguisher handy.
6. Prepare a home evacuation plan with a place outside where everyone
is to meet.

If You Suspect a Chimney Fire
Signs of a chimney re may be one or more of the following:
1. A roaring sound
2. Vibration of the chimney
3. Flames and sparks shooting out of the top of the chimney
In Case of a Chimney Fire
1. Immediately close the air inlets on the stove.
2. Evacuate the home, and call the local re department.
3. After the chimney re has been extinguished, the chimney must be cleaned and
checked for stress and cracking before starting another re. Also check combustibles
around the chimney and roof.

The stove may be installed on a combustible
floor provided noncombustible ember
protection is used.
This protection must extend as follows:
In Canada: 18" (457 mm) on the ring side
and 8" (203 mm) to the other sides. See
Figure #5 on left.
In USA: 16" (406 mm) to the front and 8"
(203 mm) to the sides of the fuel loading
door opening. See Figure #6 on right.
This protection is also required under the
chimney connector and 2" (51 mm) beyond
each side.
Intake or combustion air can be supplied to the stove in one of two ways. Consult your local
building code or CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and
Equipment before proceeding.
1. Outside air supply - (Necessary for mobile home installation, optional for residential
installation.) To draw outside air through the oor, cut or drill a 4"(100mm) diameter hole
directly below the bottom hole of the ash box enclosure(see page 6 Fig. #1a). Connect
enclosure to the oor with a short 4"(100mm) diameter pipe.
This hole must get its air from a ventilated crawl space or be extended with duct to the
outdoors (see Figure #4, Page 10). The use of outside combustion air for residential
installation requires the unit to be secured to the structure to prevent dislodging of the
air duct.
Note: When installed in a mobile home, this unit is not designed to be operated with the
ring door open. In addition to the obvious hazard of sparks landing on combustibles,
an open re door will cause the heater to draw air from the living space and possibly
cause suffocation.
2. Room air supply -There is a 4"(100mm) opening in the ash box enclosure. The stove
will draw its air from the room through this opening and into the rebox intake.
Note: The living space around the heater must be well ventilated with good air circulation.
Anything that may cause a negative pressure can cause gases or fumes to be pulled
into the living area. During extremely cold weather, and especially when burning at very
slow rates, the upper parts of the exposed chimney may ice up, partially blocking the
ue gases. If blockage occurs, ue gases may enter living space.

Operation
CAUTION:
Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter uid or similar
liquids to start or "freshen up" a re in this heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the
heater while it is in use.
CAUTION:
Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may
cause skin burns.
Your PACIFIC ENERGY heater is designed for maximum overall efficiency at a moderate
ring rate. Overring is hazardous and a waste of fuel. Too slow a burn contributes to
creosote buildup and lowers combustion efficiency.
Wood Selection
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiency and lower emissions
generally result when burning air-dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods
or too green or freshly cut hardwoods.
Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months or more. Wet or undried wood
will cause the re to smoulder and produce large amounts of creosote. Wet wood also
produces very little heat and tends to go out often.
DO NOT BURN :
-Salt water wood * -Treated wood
-Wet or green wood -Coal/charcoal
-Garbage* -Solvents
-Lawn clippings/yard waste -Unseasoned wood
-Railroad ties -Manure or animal remains
-Materials containing rubber, including tires
-Materials containing plastic
-Waste petroleum products, paints or paint
thinners, or asphalt products
-Materials containing asbestos
-Construction or demolition debris
-Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or particleboard.
* These materials contain chlorides which will rapidly destroy metal surfaces
and void warranty.
Burning these materials may result in the release of toxic fumes or render the heater
ineffective and cause smoke.
The prohibition against burning these materials does not prohibit the use of re
starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust, wax and similar substances for
the purpose of starting a re in an affected wood heater.
Do not burn anything but wood. Other fuels (eg. charcoal) can produce large amounts of
carbon monoxide, a tasteless, odourless gas that can kill. Under no circumstances should
you attempt to barbecue in this heater.
How to Test Your Wood
Add a large piece of wood to the stove when it has a good large bed of coals. It is dry if it
is burning on more than one side within one minute. It is damp if it turns black and lights
within three minutes. If it sizzles, hisses and blackens without igniting in ve minutes it is
soaked and should not be burnt.

Lighting a Fire
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a re.
1. Adjust air control to “High” position(all the way to the left) and open door.
2. Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater and criss-cross with
several pieces of dry kindling. Add a few small pieces of dry wood on top.
3. Ignite the paper and leave the door ajar approimately 1/2”(13mm) - 1”(25mm)
until the wood kindling is fully engulfed in ame.
4. After the kindling is fully engulfed add a few small logs. Close door.
5. Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and wood has charred.
Curing of the Paint Finish
When burning your stove for the rst 2-3 times it is very important that the room
be well ventilated. Open all windows and doors. Smoke and fumes caused by the
curing process may cause discomfort to some individuals.
Normal Operation
WARNING: This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate
that must not be altered. It is against federal regulations to alter this setting
or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with the
operating instructions in this manual.
1. Set air control to a desired setting. If smoke pours down across the glass (waterfall
effect) this indicates you have shut the control down too soon or you are using too low
a setting. As every home’s heating needs vary (based on insulation, windows, climate,
etc.) the proper setting can only be found by trial and error and should be noted for future
burns.
2. To refuel, adjust air control to high, and give the re time to brighten. Open the door
slowly, this will prevent backpuffing.
3. Use wood of different shape, diameter and length (up to 18"(457mm)). Load your wood
endwise and try to place the logs so that the air can ow between them. Always use dry
wood.
4. Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that would be hazardous when opening
the door.
5. For extended or overnight burns, unsplit logs are preferred. Remember to char the wood
completely on maximum setting before adjusting air control for overnight burn.
WARNING:Always keep loading door closed when burning.This heater is not designed
for open door burning.
WARNING: No alteration or modication of the combustion air control assembly is
permitted. Any tampering will void warranty and could be very hazardous.
WARNING: Do not use grates or andirons to elevate the fuel. Burn directly on the re
bricks. Replace broken or missing bricks. Failure to do so may create a hazardous
condition.

Restarting After Extended or Overnight Burns
1. Open door and rake hot embers towards the front of the heater. Add a couple of dry,
split logs on top of embers, close door.
2. Adjust air control to high (left position) and in just a few minutes, logs should begin
burning.
3. After wood has charred, reset air control to desired setting.
4. To achieve maximum ring rate, set control to high (left position). Do not use this setting
other than for starting or preheating fresh fuel loads.
Heat Output Calculation
Seasoned wood has approximately 7500 BTU’s per pound.
The calculation is as follows:
Experience will give you the right settings for proper combustion and efficient burn-
ing. Remember the correct air inlet setting is affected by variables such as type of
wood, outside temperature, chimney size and weather conditions. With practice,
you will become procient in operating your heater and will obtain the performance
for which it was designed.
Proper Draft
1. Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the chimney.The amount
of draft in your chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby
obstructions and other factors.
2. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. An uncontrollable
burn or a glowing red stove part or chimney indicates excessive draft.
3. Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing into the room and plugging of the chimney.
Smoke leaking into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints indicates
inadequate draft.
Ash Removal
Whenever ashes get 3(76mm) to 4(102mm) inches deep in your rebox, and when re has
burned down and cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1” (25
mm) deep on the rebox bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.
Ash Chute Operation: Your Alderlea stove is equipped with an ash chute system to ease
removal of ash from the ash lip area. To use this system, rst pull out the ash pan approxi-
mately 2”(51mm), sweep the ash into the chute located to the right side of the ash lip, and
close the ash pan.
Ash Cleanout System: The ash dump handle is located under the ash lip on the left hand
side. To operate ash dump, pull handle out 1/2”(12mm) and turn clockwise. This will unlock
the ash dump and allow it to open. Hold handle open while pulling ashes into the opening.
Avoid large embers as these still contain heat value. Release handle and push in to lock.
Ensure ash dump door is properly engaged. Fill the cavity with the remaining ash level with
the rebox oor. Pull out ashpan and discard ashes into metal container. Replace ashpan
and ensure it is seated properly.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER:
Attempts to achieve heat output rates that
exceed heater design specications can
result in permanent damage to the heater
and chimney.
Do not burn with ash dump door open.
Doing so will create a hazardous
condition. Always leave about 1”(25mm)
of ash when cleaning.
CAUTION:
Ashes are to be removed only when the
heater is cold.

Chimney connector pipe should be disconnected from stove to clean and inspect.
Only if this is not possible should you remove baffle assembly.
DO NOT OPERATE WITH BAFFLE ASSEMBLY OR INSULATION REMOVED.
Removal
Remove retaining pin located at the rear top of the rebox, just below the
baffle. Lift baffle up and pull forward to disconnect from the supply tube. Tilt baffle
sideways to drop down and remove from rebox. Inspect gasket between baffle
and supply tube. If necessary, replace with gasket #SSER.1395 available from
your Pacic Energy dealer. Re-install baffle assembly in reverse order. The two
side pieces of insulation must be tight against the siderails.
Baffle Removal
Optional Blower
The optional blower kit (kit #WODC.BLOW) is equipped with a three prong power
cord and may be installed at any time. Follow installation instructions supplied with
the kit. Route power supply cord away from heater.
Electrical rating: 115 volts A.C.- 0.84 amps.
Fan output rating: 140 CFM
Blower Operation
Proper blower speed matched with air control setting will ensure peak performance
from your stove. Operate as follows:
• Air control set to low (right position), operate blower speed control on "Low".
• Air control set between low and high (middle position), operate blower
speed control at desired setting.
Automatic: To operate the blower automatically, set the rocker switch on the
side of the fan housing to "Auto" and set the speed control to desired setting. This
will allow the fan to turn on as the stove heats up to operating temperature. It will
also shut the blower off after the re has gone out and the unit cooled to below a
useful heat output range.
Manual: To manually operate the blower, set the rocker switch to "Man" and set
the speed control to desired setting. This will bypass the sensing device and allow
full control of the blower.
Switching from "Auto" to "Man" or selecting speed may be done anytime.
Disposal of Ashes
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight tting lid. The closed container of
ashes should be placed outside on a non-combustible oor or on the ground, well away
from all combustible materials, pending nal disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial
in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in a closed container until all
cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other waste should not be placed in this container.
