OPERATION
WHY THE CORRECT FLUE SIZE IS IMPORTANT: 6”
“Draft” is the force that 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. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. An uncontrolled burn or
a glowing red part or chimney connector can indicate excessive draft. Inadequate draft may cause
back puffing into the room and “plugging” of the chimney and/or cause the appliance to leak smoke
into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints.
Today’s solid fuel appliances are much more efficient than in the past. The units are designed to give
you controlled combustion, as well as maximum heat transfer, using less fuel to do so.
The design of your new appliance is such that the exhaust “smoke” is now at lower temperatures than
in the past, therefore requiring proper chimney size to give adequate draft. If your chimney is too
large, the heating appliance will have a difficult time to raise the “chimney flue” temperature to give
adequate draft, therefore causing a smoke back up, poor burn, or both.
Should you experience such problems, call in a local chimney expert.
With the door closed, the rate of burning is regulated by the amount of air allowed to enter the unit
through the air control. With experience, you will be able to set the control for heat and burning time
desired.
Attempts to achieve higher output rates that exceed heater design specifications can result in
permanent damage to the heater. The recommended wood load is level with the top of the firebricks.
Overloading may prevent sufficient air entering the heater to properly fuel the fire.
Do not tamper with the combustion air control beyond the normal adjustment capacity.
Operate this heater only with the door closed, and installed damper in the fully open position.
ALWAYS PROVIDE A SOURCE OF FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM WHERE THE UNIT IS
INSTALLED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN AIR STARVATION OF OTHER FUEL
BURNING APPLIANCES AND THE POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF HAZARDOUS
CONDITIONS.
THIS HEATER IS EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. SERIOUS BURNS CAN RESULT
FROM CONTACT. CAUTION SHOULD BE OBSERVED, ESPECIALLY WHEN CHILDREN ARE
PRESENT.
OPTIONAL BLOWER: MODEL AC-16
120 VOLTS, 60Hz, 0.75 AMPS, 2900 RPM
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING UNIT.
OPTIONAL BLOWER MOTOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
This unit is set up for installation of an optional 2-speed blower motor. The fan speed
should be run on “Low” when the unit is operating at lower burn settings, and set to “High”
for high burns.
See Illustration 3 (later in this manual) for installation location of your optional blower.
Fasten blower motor to rear heat shield with the four screws that are already provided on
your stove. When routing the power cord, be sure that the cord does not come into contact
with any hot surface.
The optional heat circulation blower on this stove requires periodic lubrication; this lubrication should be performed no
less than every three months of normal operation. To properly lubricate the blower, use an eye dropper or similar
dispensing device to drip 5-7 droplets of SAE 20 oil into the oil port on the side of the blower motor.

FLUE SYSTEM
1. Existing Flue System
If you have chosen a freestanding unit, this stove is designed to connect to an existing flue system,
such as masonry or a pre-manufactured Class A flue system. If you have a masonry flue system, the
inner liner should be inspected carefully for cracks; if there is no liner in your chimney, we recommend
you install a steel liner or have one installed. If you have an existing pre-manufactured system the
inner liner should be inspected for warping or buckling. Either type chimney system should be
thoroughly cleaned before installing your new stove. We strongly recommend you have a qualified
chimney sweep clean and inspect your entire system, as the sweep can spot problems you might
overlook. The sweep in most cases can make any necessary repairs or recommend a qualified
person to do so. It is not permissible to connect this unit to a chimney that is servicing another
unit.
2. Flue Size
The proper flue size is determined by measuring the inside diameter of the flue collar on the unit.
This stove is equipped with a six inch (6”) TOP EXHAUST FLUE COLLAR.
Therefore, the connector pipe should be six inches (6”) and never less in diameter than the collar on
the stove. The area of the chimney liner must also be equal to or greater than the area of the flue
collar on the stove. If the area of the flue is greater than the collar, it should never be more than three
(3) times greater.
The black connector pipe should be 24 gauge steel and 10.5” from a combustible wall or ceiling.
This clearance can be reduced to 10.0” if you are using a double wall or shielded pipe. (See “C” in
the clearances diagrams on the following page)
3. Installation of a New Flue System
Note: Flue systems and flue pipe are not furnished with the unit.
Masonry Flue: In the event that you plan to install or have a system installed, there are several
approaches that you can take. In the middle and late seventies masonry flue systems became very
popular, and today this type system is satisfactory. If you are considering a masonry system, you
should consult with your local building officials for the proper procedures on this type chimney. We
recommend you consult with and have your flue built by a licensed, bonded contractor. Most masonry
chimney systems are placed against an outside wall and extend upward beside the house. The flue
thimble is then inserted through the wall, making the connection with the stovepipe and the vertical
flue. Exercise extreme caution when drilling through the wall -- you must maintain proper clearance
between the connecting liner and any combustible material in the wall.
We also recommend you have a flue clean-out door located at least two feet (2’) below your
thimble for easy cleaning of the system. This door should be made as airtight as possible. It is the
consumer’s responsibility to ensure the chimney system is safe and in good operating condition.
The manufacturer will not be held responsible for an accident attributed to a unit connected to a faulty
chimney system.

Pre-Manufactured Flue System: In the past few years pre-manufactured flue systems have
become very popular, because this type system is easily installed and, when done correctly, is very
safe. There are many pre-manufactured flue systems on the market, and when making your choice it
should be U.L., B.O.C.A. or I.C.B.O. approved. Any of these systems are constructed of the proper
materials and meet the proper safety standards. Your local dealer normally handles an approved
brand of flue pipe. There are two very popular methods for installation of this type system.
The first, most popular and least expensive is through the ceiling and out the roof. This is the
most direct route and creates a good draw because it requires less pipe. It is less expensive because
insulated pipe is needed only from the ceiling to the roof and above -- single wall chimney connect, 24
gauge or thicker is used from the unit to the ceiling; maintain 10.5” clearance between single wall
chimney connector and any combustibles.
The second method for installing a pre-manufactured system is to exit through the wall and run the
system vertically up the outside of the structure. This method is more expensive because more
insulated pipe is required -- you must use insulated pipe through the wall and up the outside of the
structure. In either installation, proper clearances to combustibles should be maintained. Your flue
pipe manufacturer furnishes a wall thimble or ceiling support box and, when installed properly, the
correct clearances are achieved. If you are unable to install this type system your local dealer may be
able to recommend a qualified contractor for this installation. It is the customer’s responsibility to
ensure that his system is installed properly and is in good operating condition.
FLOOR AND WALL PROTECTION
1. Floor Protection
You will not need any floor protection if your
floor is constructed of a non-combustible material
such as brick or concrete. If your floor is
constructed with a combustible material such as
hardwood, carpet or linoleum, you must place
protection between the stove and the combustible
material.
There are many floor and wall board
manufacturers, and you should be very cautious in
choosing the proper protection. The type board you
choose should be U.L. rated and listed. After
examining the area you plan to place your stove and determining it requires a board, the next step
is to select the proper size. The stove you choose will determine the size board that is required.
The approved protector board should be large enough to provide a minimum of eight inches (8”)
behind the unit, eight inches (8”) on either side and sixteen inches (16”) in the front where the door
is located. Floor protection should also exist under the chimney connector, and should extend two
inches (50 mm) beyond each side of the chimney connector. This stove requires a minimum
standard floor protector size of 48” x 48”.
Installation on a Concrete Floor
An appliance mounted on a concrete floor does not require floor protection.
Carpeting and any other combustible material must not cover the Floor Protector.
If a combustible surface is applied to the concrete floor, a clearance must be maintained
equivalent to the area reserved for the floor protector.

9
Installation on a Combustible Floor
If the appliance is to be installed on a combustible floor or a combustible floor covering, it must
be installed on a 1” thick non-combustible millboard floor protector or a durable equivalent, with a
“R” factor of no less than “2.” The pad must be installed beneath the unit, extending 16” (U.S.) on
the side equipped with a door, and 8” on all other sides. The pad must cover any horizontal
chimney connector runs and extend 2” beyond each side.
Alternate Floor Protection:
An easy means of determining if a proposed alternate floor protector meets requirements is to
follow this procedure:
1) Convert specification to R-value:
i R-value is given – no conversion is needed
ii k-factor is given with a required thickness (T) in inches: R = 1/k x T
iii C-factor is given: R = 1/C
2) Determine the R-value of the proposed alternate floor protector:
i Use the correct formula given in step 1 (above) to convert values not expressed as
“R.”
ii For multiple layers, add R-values of each layer to determine overall R-value.
3) If the overall R-value of the system is greater than the R-value of the specified floor
protector, the alternate is acceptable.
EXAMPLE:
The specified floor protector should be ¾” thick material with a k-factor of 0.84. The proposed
alternate is 4” brick with a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8” mineral board with a k-factor of 0.29.
Step (a): Use formula above to convert specification to R-value. R = 1/k x T = 1/0.84 x .75 =
0.893
Step (b): Calculate R of proposed system.
4” brick of C = 1.25, therefore R brick = 1/C =1/1.25 = 0.80
1/8” mineral board of k = 0.29, therefore Rmin.bd. = 1/0.29 x 0.125 = 0.431
Total R = Rbrick + Rmineral board = 0.8 + 0.431 = 1.231
Step (c): Compare proposed system of R of 1.231 to specified R of 0.893. Since proposed
system R is greater than required, the system is acceptable.

Thermal conductance = C = Btu = W
(hr)(ft2)(deg F) (m2)(deg K)
Thermal conductivity = k = (Btu)(inch) = W = Btu
(hr)(ft2)(deg F) (m)(deg K) (hr)(ft)(deg F)
Thermal resistance = R = (ft2)(hr)(deg F) = (m2)(deg K)
Btu W
2. Wall Protection
Please see Illustration 1 for clearances to walls. In some areas local codes may require thirty-
six inches (36”) from a combustible, therefore it is very important that you check with local officials.
If you need to place your unit closer to a combustible wall, some protection will be necessary. If an
approved wall board is used this will reduce your clearance by two thirds (2/3); however, a one
inch (1”) air space has to be between the board and the wall. If you have a ceiling flue hook-up,
you will need protection from the floor to the ceiling if you do not meet the normal clearances. If
you have a wall flue hook up, you will need wall protection at least twelve inches (12”) above the
wall thimble.
