2.2 ZONEHEATINGANDHOWTOMAKEITWORKFORYOU
YournewDestination1.5woodinsertisaspaceheater,whichmeansitisintendedtoheatthe
areaitisinstalledin,aswellasspacesthatconnecttothatarea,althoughtoalowertemperature.
Thisiscalledzoneheatinganditisanincreasinglypopularwaytoheathomesorspaceswithin
homes.
Zoneheatingcanbeusedtosupplementanotherheatingsystembyheatingaparticularspace
withinahome,suchasabasementfamilyroomoranadditionthatlacksanotherheatsource.
Housesofmoderatesizeandrelativelynewconstructioncanbeheatedwithaproperlysizedand
locatedwoodinsert.Wholehousezoneheatingworksbestwhentheinsertislocatedinthepart
ofthehousewherethefamilyspendsmostofitstime.Thisisnormallythemainlivingareawhere
thekitchen,diningandlivingroomsarelocated.Bylocatingtheinsertinthisarea,youwillgetthe
maximumbenefitoftheheatitproducesandwillachievethehighestpossibleheatingefficiency
andcomfort.Thespacewhereyouspendmostofyourtimewillbewarmest,whilebedroomsand
basement(ifthereisone)willstaycooler.Inthisway,youwillburnlesswoodthanwithother
formsofheating.
Althoughtheinsertmaybeabletoheatthemainlivingareasofyourhousetoanadequate
temperature,westronglyrecommendthatyoualsohaveaconventionaloil,gasorelectricheating
systemtoprovidebackupheating.
Yoursuccesswithzoneheatingwilldependonseveralfactors,includingthecorrectsizingand
locationoftheinsert,thesize,layoutandageofyourhomeandyourclimatezone.Three‐season
vacationhomescanusuallybeheatedwithsmallerinsertsthanhousesthatareheatedallwinter.
2.3 THEBENEFITSOFLOWEMISSIONSANDHIGHEFFICIENCY
ThelowsmokeemissionsproducedbythespecialfeaturesinsidetheDestination1.5insertmean
thatyourhouseholdwillreleaseupto90percentlesssmokeintotheoutsideenvironmentthanif
youusedanolderconventionalinsert.Butthereismoretotheemissioncontroltechnologiesthan
protectingtheenvironment.
Thesmokereleasedfromwoodwhenitisheatedcontainsabouthalfoftheenergycontentofthe
fuel.Byburningthewoodcompletely,yourinsertreleasesalltheheatenergyfromthewood
insteadofwastingitassmokeupthechimney.Also,thefeaturesinsidethefireboxallowyouto
reducetheairsupplytocontrolheatoutput,whilemaintainingcleanandefficientflaming
combustion,whichbooststheefficientdeliveryofheattoyourhome.
Theemissioncontrolandadvancedcombustionfeaturesofyourinsertcanonlyworkproperlyif
yourfuelisinthecorrectmoisturecontentrangeof15to20percent.
2.4 THEENERZONE’SCOMMITMENTTOYOUANDTHEENVIRONMENT
TheEnerzoneteamiscommittedtoprotectingtheenvironment,sowedoeverythingwecanto
useonlymaterialsinourproductsthatwillhavenolastingnegativeimpactontheenvironment.



2.4.1 WHATISYOURNEWINSERTMADEOF?
Thebodyofyourinsert,whichismostofitsweight,iscarbonsteel.Shoulditeverbecome
necessarymanyyearsinthefuture,almosttheentireinsertcanberecycledintonewproducts,
thuseliminatingtheneedtominenewmaterials.
Thepaintcoatingonyourinsertisverythin.ItsVOCcontent(VolatileOrganicCompounds)isvery
low.VOCscanberesponsibleforsmog,soallthepaintusedduringthemanufacturingprocess
meetsthelatestairqualityrequirementsregardingVOCreductionorelimination.
Theairtubesarestainlesssteel,whichcanalsoberecycled.
TheC‐Castbaffleismadeofanaluminosilicatefibrematerialthatiscompressedwithabinderto
formarigidboard.C‐Castcanwithstandtemperaturesabove1,093°C.Itisnotconsidered
hazardouswaste.Disposalatalandfillisrecommended.
Firebrickismainlycomposedofsilicondioxide,alsoknownassilica,aproductprocessedfroma
minedmineral.Itismostcommonlyfoundinnatureintheformofsandandclay.Disposalata
landfillisrecommended.
Thedoorandglassgasketsarefibreglasswhichisspunfrommeltedsand.Blackgasketshavebeen
dippedintoasolvent‐freesolution.Disposalatalandfillisrecommended.
Thedoorglassisa5mmthickceramicmaterialthatcontainsnotoxicchemicals.Itismadeof
naturalrawmaterialssuchassandandquartzthatarecombinedinsuchawaytoformahigh
temperatureglass.Ceramicglasscannotberecycledinthesamewayasnormalglass,soitshould
notbedisposedofwithyourregularhouseholdproducts.Disposalatalandfillisrecommended.

3.1 YOURFIRSTFIRES
Twothingswillhappenasyouburnyourfirstfewfires;thepaintcuresandtheinternal
componentsoftheinsertareconditioned.


12Destination1.5InsertInstallationandOperationManual
Asthepaintcures,someofthechemicalsvaporize.Thevaporsarenotpoisonous,buttheydo
smellbad.Freshpaintfumescanalsocausefalsealarmsinsmokedetectors.So,whenyoufirst
lightyourinsert,bepreparedbyopeningdoorsand/orwindowstoventilatethehouse.Asyou
burnhotterandhotterfires,moreofthepaintedsurfacesreachthecuringtemperatureofthe
paint.Thesmellofcuringpaintdoesnotdisappearuntilyouhaveburnedoneortwoveryhot
fires.
Burnoneortwosmallfirestobeginthecuringandconditioningprocess.Thenbuildbiggerand
hotterfiresuntilthereisnolongeranypaintsmellfromtheinsert.Oncethepaintsmell
disappears,yourinsertisreadyforseriousheating.
3.2 LIGHTINGFIRES
Eachpersonwhoheatswithwooddevelopstheirownfavoritewaytolightfires.Whatever
methodyouchoose,yourgoalshouldbetogetahotfireburningquickly.Afirethatstartsfast
produceslesssmokeanddepositslesscreosoteinthechimney.
3.3 MAINTAININGWOODFIRES
3.3.1 GENERALADVICE
Woodheatingwithaspaceheaterisverydifferentthanotherformsofheating.Therewillbe
variationsinthetemperatureindifferentpartsofthehouseandtherewillbevariationsin
temperaturethroughoutthedayandnight.Thisisnormal,andforexperiencedwoodburners
theseareadvantagesofzoneheatingwithwood.
Donotexpectsteadyheatoutputfromyourinsert.Itisnormalforitssurfacetemperaturetorise
afteranewloadofwoodisignitedandforitstemperaturetograduallydeclineasthefire
progresses.Thisrisingandfallingoftemperaturecanbematchedtoyourhouseholdroutines.For
example,theareatemperaturecanbecoolerwhenyouareactive,suchaswhendoinghousework
orcooking,anditcanbewarmerwhenyouareinactive,suchaswhenreadingorwatching
television.
Woodburnsbestincycles.Acyclestartswhenanewloadofwoodisignitedbyhotcoalsandends
whenthatloadhasbeenconsumeddowntoabedofcharcoalaboutthesamesizeasitwaswhen
thewoodwasloaded.Donotattempttoproduceasteadyheatoutputbyplacingasinglelogon
thefireatregularintervals.Alwaysplaceatleastthree,andpreferablymore,piecesonthefireat
atimesothattheheatradiatedfromonepiecehelpstoignitethepiecesnexttoit.Eachloadof
woodshouldprovideseveralhoursofheating.Thesizeofeachloadcanbematchedtothe
amountofheatneeded.
Whenyouburnincycles,yourarelyneedtoopentheinsert’sloadingdoorwhilethewoodis
flaming.Thisisanadvantagebecausethereismorechancethatsmokewillleakfromtheinsert
whenthedoorisopenedasafullfireisburning.
IFYOUMUSTOPENTHEDOORWHILETHEFUELISFLAMING,OPENTHEAIRCONTROLFULLYFOR
AFEWMINUTES,THENUNLATCHANDOPENTHEDOORSLOWLY.


Destination1.5InsertInstallationandOperationManual13
3.3.2 ASHREMOVAL
Ashshouldberemovedfromthefireboxeverytwoorthreedaysoffulltimeheating.Donotlet
theashbuildupinthefireboxbecauseitwillinterferewithproperfiremanagement.
Thebesttimetoremoveashisafteranovernightfirewhentheinsertisrelativelycool,butthereis
stillsomechimneydrafttodrawtheashdustintotheinsertandpreventitfromcomingintothe
room.
Afterasheshavebeenremovedfromtheinsertandplacedinatightlycoveredmetalcontainer,
theyshouldbetakenoutsideimmediately.Theclosedcontainerofashesshouldbeplacedona

3.3.3 RAKINGCHARCOAL
Rekindlethefirewhenyounoticethattheroomtemperaturehasfallen.Youwillfindmostofthe
remainingcharcoalatthebackofthefirebox,furthestfromthedoor.Rakethesecoalstowards
thedoorbeforeloading.Therearetworeasonsforthisrakingofthecoals.First,itconcentrates
themnearwheremostofthecombustionairentersthefireboxandwheretheycanignitethenew
loadquickly,andsecond,thecharcoalwillnotbesmotheredbythenewloadofwood.Ifyouwere
tosimplyspreadthecharcoalout,thenewloadwillsmoulderforalongtimebeforeigniting.

Removeashfirst,andthenrakecharcoaltowardsthefrontofthefireboxbeforeloadingsothatit
willignitethenewload.
3.3.4 FIRINGEACHNEWLOADHOT
Placethenewloadofwoodonandbehindthecharcoal,andnottooclosetotheglass.Closethe
doorandopentheaircontrolfully.Leavetheaircontrolfullyopenuntilthefireboxisfullof
flames,thewoodhascharredtoblackanditsedgesareglowingred.Firingeachloadofwoodhot
accomplishesafewthings:
•drivesthesurfacemoisturefromthewood,
•createsalayerofcharonthewood,whichslowsdownitsreleaseofsmoke,
•heatsthefireboxcomponentssotheyreflectheatbacktothefire,and
•heatsthechimneysoitcanproducestrong,steadydraftfortherestofthecycle.

Althoughitisimportanttofireeachnewloadhottoprepareforacleanburn,donotallowthefire
toburnatfullintensityformorethanafewminutes.
DONOTLEAVETHEINSERTUNATTENDEDWHILEANEWLOADISBEINGFIREDHOT.
DONOTOVERFIRE.
Whenyouburnanewloadofwoodhottoheatupthewood,theinsertandthechimney,the
resultwillbeasurgeofheatfromtheinsert.Thisheatsurgeiswelcomewhentheroom
temperatureisalittlelowerthandesirable,butnotwelcomeifthespaceisalreadywarm.
Therefore,alloweachloadofwoodtoburndownsothatthespacebeginstocooloffalittle
beforeloading.Lettingthespacecoolbeforeloadingisoneofthesecretstocleanburningand
effectivezoneheating.
3.3.5 TURNINGDOWNTHEAIRSUPPLY
Oncethefirewood,fireboxandchimneyarehot,youcanbegintoreducetheairsupplyfora
steadyburn.
Asyoureducetheairsupplytothefire,twoimportantthingshappen.First,thefiringrateslows
downtospreadtheheatenergyinthefueloveralongerperiodoftime.Second,theflowrateof
exhaustthroughtheinsertandfluepipeslowsdown,whichgivesmoretimeforthetransferof
heatfromtheexhaust.Youwillnoticethatasyoureducetheairsetting,theflamesslowdown.
Thisisyourindicationthattheinsertisburningatitspeakefficiency.
Iftheflamesgetsmallandalmost
disappearwhenyouturndowntheair,
youhaveturneddowntheairtooearly,or
yourfirewoodiswetterthanitshouldbe.
Withgoodfuelandcorrectaircontroluse,
theflamesshouldslowdown,butshould
staylargeandsteady,evenastheair
supplyisreduced.

3.3.6 BUILDING DIFFERENT FIRES FOR DIFFERENT NEEDS
Usingtheaircontrolisnottheonlywaytomatchthewoodinsert’sheatoutputtotheheat
demand.YourhousewillneedfarlessheatinAprilthaninJulytobekeptatacomfortable
temperature.Ifyoufillthefireboxfullinfallweather,youwilleitheroverheatthespaceorturn
thewoodinsertdownsomuchthatthefirewillbesmokyandinefficient.Herearesome
suggestionsforbuildingfirestomatchdifferentheatdemand.
3.3.6.1 SmallFirestoTaketheChillOfftheHouse
Tobuildasmallfirethatwillproducealowheatoutput,usesmallpiecesoffirewoodandload
themcrisscrossinthefirebox.Thepiecesshouldbeonly75mmto100mmindiameter.After
rakingthecoals,youcanlaytwopiecesparalleltoeachothercornertocornerinthefireboxand
laytwomoreacrossthemintheotherdirection.Opentheaircontrolfullyandonlyreducetheair
afterthewoodisfullyflaming.Thiskindoffireisgoodformildweatherwhenyouarearoundto
tendthewoodinsertandshouldprovideenoughheatforfourhoursormore.Smallfireslikethis
areagoodtimetousesofterwoodspeciessotherewillbelesschanceofoverheatingthehouse.
3.3.6.2 LongLastingLowOutputFires
Sometimesyouwillwanttobuildafiretolastuptoeighthours,butdon’tneedintenseheat.In
thiscaseusesmallerpiecesofhardwoodandplacethelogscompactlyinthefireboxsothepieces
arepackedtightlytogether.Youwillneedtofiretheloadhotforlongenoughtofullycharthelog
surfacesbeforeyoucanturntheairdown.Makesurethefireisflamingbrightlybeforeleavingthe
firetoburn.
3.3.6.3 HighOutputFiresforColdWeather
Whentheheatdemandishighduringcoldweather,you’llneedafirethatburnssteadilyand
brightly.Thisisthetimetouseyourbiggestpiecesofhardwoodfuelifyouhaveit.Putthebiggest
piecesatthebackofthefireboxandplacetherestofthepiecescompactly.Adenselybuiltfirelike
thiswillproducethelongestburnyourwoodinsertiscapableof.
Youwillneedtobecautiouswhenbuildingfireslikethisbecauseiftheairisturneddowntoo
much,thefirecouldsmoulder.Makesurethewoodisflamingbrightlybeforeleavingthefireto
burn.Thewoodshouldbepositionedinanorth/southfashion,thatis,fromthefronttotheback
ofthefirebox.
3.3.6.4 MaximumBurnCycleTimes
Theburncycletimeistheperiodbetweenloadingwoodonacoalbedandtheconsumptionof
thatwoodbacktoacoalbedofthesamesize.Theflamingphaseofthefirelastsforroughlythe
firsthalfoftheburncycleandthesecondhalfisthecoalbedphaseduringwhichthereislittleor
noflame.Thelengthofburnyoucanexpectfromyourwoodinsert,includingboththeflamingand
coalbedphases,willbeaffectedbyanumberofthings,suchas:
•fireboxsize,
•theamountofwoodloaded,
•thespeciesofwoodyouburn,
•thewoodmoisturecontent,
•thesizeofthespacetobeheated,
•theclimatezoneyoulivein,and
•thetimeofyear.

gasconnectorandthechimneyflue.
Maintenanceshouldbeperformedbyacompetentengineer.
4.1 INSERTMAINTENANCE
Yournewinsertwillgivemanyyearsofreliableserviceifyouuseandmaintainitcorrectly.Some
oftheinternalcomponentsofthefirebox,suchasfirebricks,bafflesandairtubes,willwearover
timeunderintenseheat.Youshouldalwaysreplacedefectivepartswithoriginalparts(see
Appendix7:ExplodedDiagramandPartsList).Firingeachloadhottobeginacycleasdescribed
abovewillnotcauseprematuredeteriorationoftheinsert.However,lettingtheinsertrunwith
theaircontrolfullyopenfortheentireburncyclescancausedamageovertime.Thehotteryou
runtheinsertthroughoutburncycles,themorequicklyitscomponentswilldeteriorate.Forthat
reason,neverleavetheinsertunattendedwhileanewloadisbeingfiredhot.
4.1.1 CLEANING DOOR GLASS
Undernormalconditions,yourdoorglassshouldstayrelativelyclear.Ifyourfirewoodisdry
enoughandyoufollowtheoperatinginstructionsinthismanual,awhitish,dustydepositwillform
ontheinsideoftheglassafteraweekorsoofuse.Thisisnormalandcanbeeasilyremovedwhen
theinsertiscoolbywipingwithadampclothorpapertowelandthendrying.Nevertrytoclean
theglasswhentheinsertishot.
Inspringandfallwhentheinsertisrunatlowertemperatures,youmayseesomelightbrown
stainsforming,especiallyatthelowercornersoftheglass.Thisindicatesthatthefirehasbeen
smokyandsomeofthesmokehascondensedontheglass.Whentheweatherismild,youmay
findthatlettingthefiregooutisbetterthantryingtomaintainacontinuousfire.Usethe
techniquedescribedaboveforbuildingafiretotakethechilloffthehouse.
Ifyoudogetbrownstainsontheglassyoucanremovethemwithspecialcleanersforwoodheater
glassdoors.Donotuseabrasivestocleanyourinsert’sdoorglass.
Thedepositsthatformontheglassarethebestindicationofthequalityofyourfuelandhowwell
youaredoinginoperatingtheinsert.Yourgoalshouldbeclearglasswithnobrownstains.Ifyou
continuetoseebrownstainsontheglass,somethingaboutyourfuelandoperatingprocedure
needstobechanged.Stainsontheglassindicateincompletecombustionofthewood,whichalso
meansmoresmokeemissionsandfasterformationofcreosoteinthechimney.
Ifyouseebrownstreakscomingfromtheedgeoftheglass,itistimetoreplacethegasketaround
theglass.Visityourinsertretailertogettheself‐adhesiveglassgasketandfollowtheinstructions
ofSection4.1.4:ReplacingtheGlassGasketand/ortheGlassforinstallation.

4.1.2 DOORADJUSTMENT
Inorderforyourstovetoburnatitsbestefficiency,thedoormustprovideaperfectsealwiththe
firebox.Therefore,thegasketshouldbeinspectedperiodicallymakingsuretoobtainanairtight
fit.Airtightnesscanbeimprovedwithasimplelatchmechanismadjustment.Toadjust:
1. Slightly unfasten the bolts (A) using a ratchet and a 3/8” (10 mm) hexagonal socket.
2. Adjust to the desired tension. Increase the mechanism tension by sliding it backward.
3. Fasten the bolts (A)

4.1.3 REPLACING THE DOOR GASKET
Itisimportanttomaintainthegasketingoodcondition.Afterayearormoreofuse,thedoor
gasketwillcompressandbecomehard,whichmayallowairtoleakpastit.Youcantestthe
conditionofthedoorgasketbyclosingandlatchingthedooronastripofpaper.Testallaround
thedoor.Ifthepaperslipsouteasilyanywhere,itistimetoreplacethegasket.
Usethecorrectreplacementgasketthatyoucanpurchasefromyourretailer.Thediameterand
densityofthegasketisimportanttogettingagoodseal.
Placethedoorface‐downonsomethingsoftlikeacushionofragsorpieceofcarpet.Removethe
oldgasketfromthedoorbypullingandpryingitoutwithanoldscrewdriver.Thenusethe
screwdrivertoscrapetheoldgasketadhesivefromthedoor.Nowruna1/4”(6mm)beadofhigh
