INSTALLATION
InstallationOverview
When choosing a location for your new stove, there are a multitude of factors that
should be taken into account before beginning the installation.
1. Traffic Patterns – To help prevent accidents, the stove should be placed in a location
where it is out of the way of normal travel through the home.
2. Heat Flow and Efficiency – When deciding on a location for the stove, consider the
way heat moves throughout your home. Install the stove where you need the heat;
basement installations often do not allow sufficient heat to flow to the upper floors
and a top floor installation will not allow any heat to reach the floors below. Always
consider that heat rises and will take the path of least resistance while it is still hot.
3. Exhaust Location – The engine which drives a wood stove is the chimney system, so
it is important to consider precisely how the chimney system will be integrated into
the stove installation. Ideally, a wood stove chimney will run completely vertical
from the flue collar of the unit all the way to the termination point above the roof
line. Keeping the entire chimney system inside the heated envelope of the home
will ensure a strong, easy to initiate draft in the chimney. Although exterior chimney
systems often function properly, they are more likely to suffer from cold down drafts
at start up or provide weak draft to the unit. Also, consider the cross-sectional area
of the chimney; although existing masonry chimneys can often be used, a large
external masonry chimney will result in a unit that is difficult or impossible to
operate properly. In that case, an insulated chimney liner will often be required to
supply the necessary draft.
4. Wall Construction – Locating the stove so that the exhaust system can pass between
studs will simplify the installation and eliminate the need to reframe any sections of
the wall or ceiling to accommodate the wall thimble or ceiling box.
WARNING
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• Do Not Over-fire – If any external part starts to glow, you are over-firing.
Reduce intake air supply. Over-firing will void your warranty.
• Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as specified.
Failure to comply may result in a house fire.
• Tested and approved for cordwood only. Burning any other fuel will
void your warranty.

Venting Introduction
INSTALLATION
Venting Guidelines
This wood stove operates on a
natural draft system, in which the chimney
system pulls air through the stove. This unit
must be installed in accordance with the
following detailed descriptions of venting
techniques; not installing the stove in
accordance with the details listed here can
result in poor stove performance, property
damage, bodily injury or death. Avoid
make-shift compromises when installing the
venting system. Englander is not
responsible for any damage incurred
due to a poor or unsafe installation.
Be certain that all aspects of the
venting system are installed to the venting
manufacturer’s instructions, particularly the
required clearances to combustibles. Also,
be certain to use an attic radiation shield to
prevent insulation from contacting a
chimney which passes through an attic.
The chimney system is the “engine”
which drives a wood stove, so it is
imperative for proper unit function that the
venting system be installed exactly as
described in the following section.
If questions arise pertaining to the
safe installation of the stove, our Technical
Support line (877 356-6663) is available.
Contact your local code official to be certain
your installation meets local and national
fire codes, and if you’re uncertain about
how to safely install the stove, we strongly
recommend contacting a local NFI certified
installer to perform the installation.
• ALWAYS install vent pipe in strict
adherence to the instructions and
clearances included with your
venting system.
• DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A
CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER
APPLIANCE.
• DO NOT install a flue pipe damper
or any other restrictive device in the
exhaust venting system of this unit.
• USE an approved wall thimble when
passing and a ceiling support/fire
stop when passing through a ceiling.
• INSTALL three sheet metal screws at
every chimney connector joint.
• AVOID excessive horizontal runs and
elbows, as both will reduce the draft
of the venting system and will result
in poor stove performance.
• INSPECT your venting system often,
to be certain it is clear of creosote,
fly-ash and other restrictions.
• CLEAN the venting system as
detailed in the maintenance section
of this manual.
• ADHERE to the 10-3-2 rule regarding
chimney terminations.
• INSTALL single wall chimney
connector with the male end down
to prevent creosote leakage. Follow
double wall chimney connector
manufacturer’s instructions
regarding proper pipe installation.
WARNING: Venting system surfaces get HOT, and can cause burns if
touched. Noncombustible shielding or guards may be required.
Where passage through a wall or partition of combustible construction is desired, the
installation shall conform with CAN/CSA-B365.

Flue Gas Direction
AdditionalVenting Information
INSTALLATION
• Do not mix and match components from different pipe manufacturers when assembling
your venting system (i.e. Do NOT use venting pipe from one manufacturer and a thimble
from another).
• We require a minimum chimney height of 15.0 ft. Chimney systems shorter than this
may not create the amount of draft which is required to operate this wood burning unit.
• Do not use makeshift compromises when installing the venting system; have existing
chimney systems inspected before use and be certain all new chimney systems are
installed to the manufacturer’s specifications and with only UL listed components (ULC if
Canada).
• Prefabricated venting systems used for this stove must be listed to CAN/ULC S629
(Canada) and UL 103HT (US).
• Never install a draft inducer or any other system which increases the natural draft of the
chimney; similarly, do not install a barometric or stovepipe damper with this unit.
• Never use single wall or double chimney connector as a chimney system; never pass
either type of chimney connector through a combustible wall without carefully following
the manufacturer’s instructions and those listed in the following page on Wall Pass-
Throughs. NEVER pass chimney connector through an attic, floor, closet or roof.
• Only use 24 gauge MSG black single wall chimney connector or UL Listed (ULC if Canada)
double wall chimney connector.
Single Wall Chimney Connector Installation
The male end of single wall
chimney connector is
installed facing down so that
any liquid creosote in the
flue will run into the unit
instead of onto the outside
of the pipe (the natural draft
in the chimney system will
prevent smoke leakage at
the joints).
Crimped or male end of
single wall chimney
connector must face down.
Fasten each single wall
chimney connector joint
with three sheet metal
screws.
WARNING
• INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT MANUFACTURER.
• HOT! Do not touch! Severe burns or clothing ignition may result.
• Glass and other surfaces are hot during operation.

• A tight seal at the thimble is crucial for proper unit performance and to create a safe installation. Use the proper
adapter designed for connecting single or double wall chimney connector to a masonry thimble.
• Have existing masonry chimneys inspected for safety and proper clearances to combustibles before putting them into
service; a qualified chimney sweep can perform this inspection.
• External masonry chimneys often suffer cold downdrafts and poor draft performance even when they meet the
cross-sectional area rules. In this case, a 6.0” insulated liner may be necessary.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION INTO A MASONRY FIREPLACE
Preparation
Keep in mind that this type of a installation will make it difficult to change speeds on the blower frequently. We
recommend picking a blower speed and sticking with it, since adjusting the blower will be difficult because of
the tight installation. WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADJUST BLOWER DURING OPERATION. SKIN
BURNS MAY OCCUR WHEN MAKING CONTACT WITH THE UNIT. WAIT FOR UNIT TO COMPLETELY
COOL BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO ADJUST BLOWER.
Measure your hearth to ensure it is large enough to accept the unit.
Unit must have a 36” clearance from the top of the stove to a mantel in accordance with NFPA 211.
For the USA: Hearth must extend at least
16 in. from the front of the fuel opening.
For Canada: Hearth must extend at least 18 in.
(450.0 mm) from the front of the fuel opening.
Inspect your hearth to be sure it is
constructed of a noncombustible material
such as brick or stone. Do not install this
stove on a hearth that is constructed of
wood framework that is covered by brick or
stone and do not install this unit in a zero (0)
clearance fireplace. The manufacturer will
not be held responsible for an accident
resulting from this stove being installed on a
hearth constructed of a combustible
material.
Inspect your fireplace to ensure it is in
proper working order and free of any
obstructions.
Prior to installation, remove the existing
damper or wire it to fasten it open.
Venting Your Stove - Direct Connect
When this unit is direct connected it will
require six inch (6”) diameter 24 gauge pipe
from the stove through the damper opening.
(NOTE: The chimney connector must be
attached to the appliance with a minimum
of three (3) screws, and 3 screws should
be used to attach each adjoining
section.)
We highly recommend having the chimney
fully lined with a 6 inch liner to ensure proper
draft. This will make it necessary to block off
the open area on both sides of the pipe that
passes through the damper opening, which
can be done with sheet metal or by packing
flame retardant fiberglass insulation in the
open areas (no paper or combustibles).
You must be sure the draft from the chimney
is being pulled through the stove, and not
around the connector pipe.
We highly recommend you have this
done by a professional. You should also contact your local authorities to be sure you are following all codes.

TRANSPORTATION

FLOOR PROTECTION
• This wood stove requires a U.L. listed (ULC if Canada) floor protector with a R factor of no less than
1.0, if the stove is to be installed on a combustible floor. If the floor the stove is to be installed on
is already non-combustible (i.e. a concrete floor in a basement), no floor protection is needed
(although a decorative floor protector can still be used for aesthetic reasons).
• When using any floor protector, consider that this stove is not only heavy but will induce heating
and cooling cycles on the floor protector which can damage tile and loosen mortar and grout joints
located near the stove.
• The floor protector should be UL rated and listed, or equivalent (ULC if Canada1) and must be
noncombustible. A hearth rug is NOT an approved substitute for a proper hearth pad.
• For the US: The floor protector must extend at least 16 in. from the front of the fuel opening, 8 in.
from the sides of the door opening and 8 in. from the rear of the unit.
• For Canada: The floor protector must extend at least 450 mm from the front of the fuel opening,
200 mm from the sides of the door opening and 200 mm from the rear of the unit.
• The floor protector must extend 2 in. (50.8 mm.) on either side of any horizontal venting runs and
extend directly underneath any vertical venting pipe.
CAUTION
NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID,
OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A FIRE IN THIS HEATER. KEEP ALL SUCH
LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE HEATER WHILE IN USE. ADDITIONALLY, NEVER APPLY FIRE-
STARTER TO ANY HOT SURFACE OR EMBERS IN THE STOVE.
1In Canada, to comply with CSA B365, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment, any combustible covering beneath the appliance and/or
within the area extending horizontally at least 450 mm (18 in) beyond the appliance on any side equipped with a door, and at least 200 mm (8 in) beyond the appliance
on other sides, shall be protected by a continuous, durable, non-combustible pad that will ember protection. The 450 mm (18 in) ember protection required on any side
with a door shall extend for the full width of the appliance plus the 200 mm (8 in) required on each side of the appliance without a door. Where the appliance is
installed less than 200 mm (8 in) from a wall, the ember pad need only extend to the base of the wall. An ember pad shall not be placed on top of a carpet unless the
pad is structurally supported to prevent displacement and distortion.

OPERATION
Break-In Fires
• This wood burning unit is constructed of heavy gauge
steel and cast iron and is built to last a long time.
However, in order to ensure no excessive thermal stresses are induced on the
metal during the
first fire, three break-in fires should be burned, each one slightly hotter than the last. These
break-in fires will not only help the stove body acclimate to the high temperatures of the fire,
but will also slowly cure the high temperature stove paint, which will ensure the high
quality finish lasts for years.
• This stove has a single air control rod which regulates the wood burn rate; when the primary air
control slide is pushed all the way into the unit, the stove will burn more slowly and put out
heat over a longer time period. Conversely, when the air control slide is pulled all the way out,
the unit will burn more quickly and put out a larger amount of heat over a relatively shorter
time
period. Do not attempt to modify the range of air control adjustment for any reason.
• The first break-in fire should be just a large kindling fire, getting the stove to about 300° . Once
this temperature has been reached, allow the fire to die out with the air control open. The
second and third break-in fires should be a bit larger, with some small dry splits added to the
kindling load. The temperature goal during these fires is about 350°F – 450°F; don’t let the fire
get hotter than that.
Continuous Operation – Daily Operation after your Break-In Fires
Start-up
-Load the firebox with wood, split to moderate size.
-On top of the startup wood, add dry kindling split into very small pieces.
-Ignite the kindling from the top until a flame is established.
-Close the door and set the damper to High (with rod pulled all the way out) to reduce the
amount of smoke.
High Burn
-Be sure the dog box is not covered with ashes or coals (see Brick Layout, page 34, for dog box
location).
-Load wood load onto the coal bed after chopping and packing coals, if necessary.
-Close the door, set the damper to High (with rod pulled all the way out) and set blower to High
speed.
Low Burn
-Be sure the dog box is not covered with ashes or coals (see Brick Layout, page 34, for dog box
location).
-Load wood load onto the coal bed after chopping and packing coals, if necessary.
-Close the door, set the damper to High and set blower to High speed.
-After 15 minutes, set the damper to Low (rod pushed all the way in) and set blower to Low speed.
Medium Burn
-Be sure the dog box is not covered with ashes or coals (see Brick Layout, page 34, for dog box
location).
-Load wood load onto the coal bed after chopping and packing coals, if necessary.
-Close the door, set the damper to ½ closed and set blower to High speed.
-After 15 minutes, set the blower to Low speed.

OPERATION
• The optional room air convection blower was designed to extract the maximum amount of heat
from the stove, for the highest possible heat transfer into the room. Since the blower is so
efficient at removing heat from the unit, it is very important to only operate the room air blower
after a fresh wood load has been allowed to burn for at least thirty (30) minutes. Allowing a fresh
load of wood to burn without the blower on ensures that the entire unit reaches proper
operation temperatures and that the secondary combustion system is functioning properly.
Additionally, follow the guidelines below for acceptable blower speeds.
• When using the optional room air convection blower (Part No. AC-16, or you can upgrade to the
AC-30), the blower should be operated as follows depending on heat output level:
Burn Rate High Medium High Medium Medium Low Low
Blower Speed AC-16

Blower Speed AC-30 High Medium High Medium Medium Low Low
Creosote –Formation and Need for Removal
When wood is burned slowly, it produces 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. The chimney and chimney connector should be
inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to
determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated, it
should be removed to reduce the risk of chimney fire.
DO NOT USE GRATES OR ANDIRONS OR OTHERWISE ELEVATE FIRE – BUILD
WOOD FIRE DIRECTLY ON HEARTH
DO NOT OPERATE WITH THE MAIN DOOR OPEN – OPERATING THE STOVE WITH THE MAIN
DOOR OPEN WILL CREATE AN OVER‐ FIRE
In the event of a creosote or soot fire (chimney fire), close the air control on the stove,
contact the local fire department and get out! Do not throw water on the fire! Contact
your local fire authority for more information on how to handle a chimney fire and
P
develop a safe evacuation plan for you and your family in the event of a chimney fire.
