Safety Precautions
FOR SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION OF YOUR “ENVIRO” WOOD STOVE,
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
● Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new wood stove. Failure to
follow instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury or even death. Be aware
that local Codes and Regulations may override some items in this manual. Check with your
local inspector.
● If this appliance is not properly installed, operated and maintained, a serious house re could result.
Makeshift compromises during installation are prohibited and could also result in a serious house re.
● HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING, AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY
CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
● Operate only with the door tightly closed and burn wood directly on the stove hearth. Do not operate
if the door glass is broken or a gasket is missing or damaged. Do not alter the combustion air control
valves. Dangerous over-ring could occur which could ignite creosote in the chimney or cause a house
re.
● There needs to be an opening of at least 12 square inches (77.4 cm2) to allow fresh air into the room.
● Do not burn coal or charcoal as there is danger of carbon monoxide being produced. DO NOT USE
CHEMICAL FLUIDS TO START OR RE-FRESH THE FIRE. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE
FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, GREASE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL. Never let the stove become hot
enough to get any part red or glowing red.
● Never store gasoline or other ammable liquids near the stove.
● Burning wet, unseasoned wood could cause excessive creosote accumulation in the ue pipe. When
ignited, it could cause a chimney re that could result in a serious house re.
● Do not use grates, irons or any other methods to support or raise the re up off the hearth of the
appliance.
● This appliance is tested to ULC-S628-93 Standard for Fireplace Inserts, & UL 1482 Standard for Safety
for Solid-Fuel Type Room Heaters.
● Both the 1200-C & 1700-C Fireplace Inserts are approved for installation into a zero-clearance replace
in the USA. In Canada refer to local building or re ofcials for restrictions and installation inspection
● A chimney connector shall not pass through an attic, roof space, oor, ceiling, closet or similar concealed
space.
● Where passage through a wall, or partition of combustible construction is desired, the installation shall
conform to CAN/CSA-B365.
● In the event of component failure, only manufacturer specied replacement parts may be used.
● DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
● DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
● DO NOT INSTALL IN A MOBILE HOME.

Operating Instructions
FIRST START
When rst installed, the chimney, rebricks and steel are cold and it usually takes several hours on a fairly
high burn for them to become hot and dry enough for the stove to function properly. We recommend
during the unit’s rst burn that a door or window are opened to vent the smoke and fumes created from
the unit’s paint curing. The paint will smell a little for the rst burn or two as it cures.
DISPOSAL OF ASHES:
If you let the ashes accumulate two or three inches at the bottom of the rebox they tend to burn
themselves up. Wait until the replace has completely cooled before removing ashes. Ashes should be
placed in a metal container with a tight tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a
noncombustible 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 disposed, they should be retained in the
closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other waste shall not be placed in this container.
FAN OPERATION:
All models have been approved for operation with the manufacturer supplied fan. On medium or high
burns, using a fan will increase the heat transfer slightly. Route the electrical cord along the oor in front
of the surround panel. There are cutouts in the castings to tuck the cord under.
1. Plug the fan power cord into a standard three (3) prong grounded electrical receptacle.
2. The fan has three modes of operation manual, off, and auto. Fan modes are controlled by a three
position switch located on the lower left side of the unit. See wiring diagram for clarication.
3. The fan is controlled by a rotary dial located at the lower left side of the unit. The dial rotation is as
follows: OFF>HIGH>LOW
4. If the dial is in any position other than off and is switched to auto mode, the fan will automatically
turn on once the stove has reached operating temperature (roughly 25 minutes from a cold start).
When the unit cools down, the fan temperature sensor will shut the fan off automatically if in auto
mode. The fan can also be turned off manually at any time by rotating the dial to the off position or
by setting the switch to the off position. Manual mode will turn on the fan instantly if the dial is not
in the off position.
REPLACING THE GLASS:
Never strike or slam the door, hit the glass or let burning wood rest against it as this may
cause the glass to crack and cause possible injury. If the glass cracks when the re is burning,
do not open the door until the re is out and do not operate the stove again until the glass has been
replaced. If the glass is damaged in any way, a factory replacement is required (see “Parts List”). To
replace the glass, remove the steel retaining clips and all loose glass. Replace only with Neoceram 5 mm
glass 16.61” (422 mm) x 10.63” (270 mm) and wrap the edges with 0.125” (3.2 mm) x 0.5” (13 mm)
self-adhesive berglass gasket.
Wear gloves when handling damaged glass door assembly to prevent personal injury. When the glass
door assembly is being transported, it must be wrapped in newsprint and tape and/or a strong plastic bag.
The glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer. No substitute materials are allowed.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND SMOKE DETECTION:
All homes with a solid fuel burning stove should have at least one re extinguisher in a central location
known to all in the household and a smoke detection device in the room containing the stove. If it sounds
the alarm, correct the cause but do not deactivate. You may choose to relocate the smoke detection
device within the room; DO NOT REMOVE THE SMOKE DETECTOR FROM THE ROOM.
4

CREOSOTE - ITS FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL:
When wood is burned slowly, it may produce tar and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled
moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney 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 biweekly during the heating
season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated (3mm or more) it
should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re.
MAINTENANCE:
At the end of each heating season clean the chimney and the smoke pipe. If soot has accumulated above
the top bafe bricks, remove, clean, and then replace them. If a secondary air tube is badly corroded,
replace it. Replace worn door gaskets and broken bricks as needed.
FAILURE TO INSPECT AND CLEAN YOUR CHIMNEY SYSTEM REGULARLY CAN RESULT IN A
CHIMNEY FIRE, WHICH COULD DAMAGE THE CHIMNEY OR CAUSE A HOUSE FIRE.
CHIMNEY OR RUN AWAY FIRE:
1. Call local re department (or dial 911)
2. Close the draft fully
3. Examine the ue pipes, chimney, attic, and roof of the house, to see if any part has become hot
enough to catch re. If necessary, spray with re extinguisher or water from the garden hose.
4. Do not operate the stove again until you are certain the chimney and its lining have not been damaged.
Building Your Fire:
Proper operation of your stove will help to ensure safe, efcient heating. Please take a few moments to
review these simple operating procedures.
IMPORTANT: Please be aware when loading your stove that the air tubes in the rear are lower.
1. Fuel Selection:
This stove is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efciencies and lower emissions generally result
when burning air-dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or too green or freshly cut
hardwoods. DO NOT BURN the following: treated wood, coal, garbage, solvents, colored papers or trash.
Burning these may result in the release of toxic fumes and may poison or render the secondary air tubes
ineffective. Burning coal, cardboard or loose paper can produce soot, or large akes of char or y ash that
can coat the combustor, causing smoke spillage into the room, and rendering the combustor ineffective.
2. Building/Maintaining a Fire:
a) Open the primary air slide by pulling it all the way to the right.
b) Place a base of crumpled uncolored newspaper in the bottom of the stove. Lay pieces of kindling on
top of the newspaper and light it.
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 heater while it is in use.
c) As the kindling begins to burn, add several larger pieces of wood until the re is burning well. At this
point, regular size logs may be added.
NOTE: Until the re is burning well, leave the air controls fully open.

Operating Instructions
d) Regulate the heat output of the stove by adjusting the air controls to allow a larger re and vice versa.
A short period of experimentation with the control settings will allow you to regulate the heat output
to keep your home comfortable.
Do not use a grate or elevate the re. Build wood re on the stove rebox hearth oor.
3. Refueling the Stove:
Use supplied re gloves when feeding the re for burn protection. . Keep a small steel shovel and poker
nearby for moving a log or lifting a fallen ember and for keeping the hearth clean.
a) Before attempting to add fuel to the stove, OPEN the damper control fully by pulling it all the way out.
This allows the chimney to carry away any additional smoke, which keeps it from spilling in to the room.
b) DO NOT OVERLOAD THE STOVE. Normally, three or four logs will provide heat for several hours.
Remember secondary air tube are lower in the back.
c) DO NOT OVERFIRE. If any part of the heater or chimney starts to glow red, you are overring.
Overring could ignite creosote in the chimney and cause a house re.
d) CAUTION: DO NOT PLACE FUEL OR COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL WITHIN SPACE HEATER INSTALLATION
CLEARANCES OR WITHIN THE SPACE REQUIRED FOR CHARGING AND ASH REMOVAL. LOGS SHOULD BE
KEPT IN A BIN OR CONTAINER TO REDUCE THE RISK OF LOGS ROLLING INTO THE UNIT’S CLEARANCES.
e) KEEP THE ASH LIP CLEAR OF EMBERS AND ASH. If the door is closed with debris in the way,
the door gasket seal could be compromised.
4. For Maximum Efciency:
When the stove is hot, load it fully to the top of the door opening and burn at medium low settings. When
the fuel is mostly consumed, leaving a bed of red coals, repeat the process. Maximum heat for minimum
fuel occurs when the stove top temperature is between 250°F (120°C) and 550°F (290°C). The most
likely causes of dirty glass are: not enough fuel to get the stove thoroughly hot, burning green or wet
wood, closing the draft until there is insufcient air for complete combustion, or a weak chimney draw.
Indeed, the cleanliness of the glass is a good indicator of the stove operating efciently.
Helpful Hints Worth Repeating
1. Helpful advice on the correct way to start your re.
a) You will need small pieces of dry wood, called kindling, and paper. Use only newspaper or paper
that has not been coated or had other materials glued or applied to it. Never use coated (typically
advertising yers) or coloured paper.
b) Always open the door of the wood stove slowly to prevent suction and drawing smoke into the
room.
c) Crumple several pieces of paper and place them in the center of the rebox, directly on top of the
rebricks in the wood stove. Never use a grate to elevate the re.
d) Place small pieces of dry wood (kindling) over the paper in a “teepee” manner. This allows for good
air circulation, which is critical for good combustion.
e) Light the crumpled paper in 2 or 3 locations. Note: It is important to heat the air in the stovepipe for
draft to start.

7
Operating Instructions
f) Fully open the air controls of the wood stove and close the door until it is slightly open, allowing for
much needed air to be introduced into the rebox. Never leave the door fully open, as sparks from
the kindling may y out of the stove, causing damage or injury. As the re begins to burn the kindling,
some additional kindling may be needed to sustain the re. DO NOT add more paper after the re has
started.
g) Once the kindling has started to burn, add some smaller pieces of seasoned, dry rewood. Note:
Adding large pieces at the early stages will only serve to smother the re. Continue adding small pieces
of seasoned dry rewood, keeping the door slightly open until each piece starts to ignite. Remember
to always open the door slowly between placing wood into the re.
h) Once the wood has started to ignite and the smoke has reduced, close the wood stove door fully. The
reduction of smoke is a good indication that the draft in the chimney has started to heat up and good
combustion is now possible. Larger pieces of seasoned, dry rewood can now be added when there
is sufcient space in the rebox. Adjust the air control setting to desired setting. Note: The lower the
air control setting, the longer the burn time of your rewood.
2. What type of wood is best to use as rewood?
Both hardwood and softwood burn well in this stove. Both woods contain about 8,000 BTU/lb (18,570
KJ/Kg), but hardwood is generally more dense, will weigh more per cord, and burns a little slower and
longer. Cutting rewood so that it will t horizontally, front to back, makes it easier loading and less likely
for the fuel to roll on the glass. Except for a cold start, there is no need to crisis-cross the logs. Ideal
length for the logs used in the 1200-C would be about 16“ (381 mm) but it can burn pieces up to 18”
long. Ideal length for the logs used in the 1700-C would be about 18“ (381 mm) but it can burn pieces
up to 20” long logs. Burn only dry, seasoned wood. It produces more heat and less soot or creosote.
Freshly cut wood has about 50% moisture. A 10 pound (4.5 Kg) log contains 5 pounds (2.3 Kg) of water.
To season rewood, split and stack it so that air can get to all parts of the wood. Burn beach wood only
if its salt content has been washed away in a season of rain and then the wood dried. To prevent smoke
spillage when refueling, fully open the damper and open the door slowly.
3. What does dry, seasoned wood mean?
Wood that has been dried for a period of one year in a well-ventilated and sheltered area would be
considered dry, seasoned wood. Wood from slow-growing trees is generally considered better than wood
from fast-growing trees. To season rewood, split and stack it so that air can get to all parts of the
wood.
4. Will following the above-listed steps for starting a re mean perfect results every time?
The quick answer is ‘most of the time’. There are many variables that may affect your success when
starting a re. Most of those variables and how to deal with them will be learned through experience.
Your ability to start a good re will signicantly increase with time and patience. Some of the reasons for
poor stove performance will be covered in the next section of these instructions.
5. Why can’t I get the re lit?
Damp or wet wood and poor drafts are the main reasons for poor results in starting a re. Always use
dry, seasoned wood for your re. Even wood dried for two years will be difcult to ignite if it has become
wet.

8
Operating Instructions
6. Is it normal for soot to cover the glass at the beginning of a re?
Your stove has been built with an air-wash system that will help keep the glass clear when the rebox
has reached a good operating temperature and has a good draft. Normally, a hot stove will keep the glass
clean, but if you must clean the glass, use a soft cloth with no abrasive and clean only when the unit is
cold. Cold rebox temperature and poor draft cause sooting of the glass. Once the rebox temperature
and the draft increase, the soot will burn off.
7. What is draft?
Draft is the ability of the chimney to exhaust or draw smoke produced during the normal combustion
process. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance and may damage the
appliance. Inadequate draft may cause backpufng or “plugging” of the chimney. There is a certain
amount of draft that is required to allow for your stove to function at its’ highest efciency. A water
column gauge can be used to reference this amount.
8. What can cause a poor draft?
The most common factors for poor draft are:
a) Air supply
b) Environmental conditions
c) Cold chimney temperature
d) Poor chimney installation and maintenance
e) Atmospheric pressure
a) Air supply – Inside the home, normal household appliances such as clothes dryers and forced-air
furnaces compete for air, resulting in air starvation to the re. This creates a condition in the house
known as negative pressure. When a house experiences negative pressure, the combustion gases
can be drawn from the chimney and into the house. This condition is commonly referred to as down-
drafting. Increased amounts of insulation, vinyl windows, extra caulking in various places and door
seals can all keep heat in but may also make a home too airtight. An easy way to stop negative
pressure in a home is to crack a window in the room containing the stove.
b) Environmental Conditions - High trees, low-lying house location such as in a valley, tall buildings or
structures surrounding your house and windy conditions can cause poor draft or down-drafting.
c) Cold Chimney Temperature - Avoid cold chimney temperatures by burning a hot re for the rst fteen
to forty minutes, being careful not to over-re the stove. If any part of the chimney or parts of the
stove start to glow, you are over-ring the stove. Where possible, install a temperature gauge on the
chimney so temperature drops can be seen.
d) Chimney Installation and Maintenance - Avoid using too many elbows or long horizontal runs. If a
chimney run is too short this can cause difcult start-up, dirty glass, back smoking when door is open,
and even reduced heat output. Too tall a chimney may prompt excessive draft, which can result in
very short burn times and excessive heat output. If in doubt, contact a chimney expert and/or chimney
manufacturer for help. To prevent creosote build up clean the chimney, rain cap, and spark arrestor
regularly.
Note: These instructions are intended as an aid and do not supercede any local, provincial or state
requirements. Check with ofcials or authorities having jurisdiction in your area.

air control:
The primary air is controlled by the rod located on the
right side of the unit. To increase your air, pull the rod
out and to decrease, push the rod in. All the units have
a secondary air that ows through the tubes at the top
of the rebox, just below the bafes.
Pull this control all the way out when rst starting the
stove. Once the re has been established you may
adjust this control to set the burn rate of the re. For
optimal efciency, use a low to medium setting. If this
damper is closed at rst start-up, the re will burn very
slowly and could soot the appliance.
When shutting down the stove, fully open the air control. This allows the chimney temperatures to remain
as high as possible for as long as possible. Cold chimney temperatures create creosote.

Surround panel Sealed inStallation For uSa onlY:
Note: Though this is an allowable installation, we do not recommend it because of the possibility of poor
draft, and therefore poor stove performance.
Before starting this type of installation refer
to instaLLation - Masonry firePLace instaLLation
- insert for additional information. For
clearances refer to sPecifications - cLearances to
coMbustibLes - 1200-c insert and sPecifications
- cLearances tocoMbustibLes - 1700-c insert.
1. Before the face plate is installed onto
the unit, glue a 6” (150mm) wide R20
berglass insulation strip around the
perimeter of the back of the panels using
RTV silicon or stove gasket cement.
When the face plate is installed onto
the unit the insulation must overlaps the
replace opening to form a seal between
the masonry replace and the unit’s face
plate. Let the silicon or cement dry.
2. To make the installation of the surround
panel onto the unit easy have the unit 6”
(150mm) out from the replace,
3. Push the insert into the replace, allowing
the insulation to form a seal between the
panels and the replace. Tuck any exposed
insulation behind the face plate.

your chimney may not have sufficient draw
for the fireplace to operate correctly.The
required cross-section may vary depending
on climate and if the chimney is inside (better)
or outside.

Installation
inStallation uSing a Block-oFF plate For uSa onlY:
If this unit is to be installed into a masonry replace or a zero-
clearance replace with a direct connection you must install a
non-combustible seal-off device such as a block-off plate or
damper adapter. By installing a block-off plate you seal the
chimney, ensuring that no smoke enters the home and sealing
the chimney to encourage draft. To construct a block-off plate
follow the below steps.
Before starting this type of installation refer to instaLLation -
Masonry firePLace instaLLation - insert for additional information.
For clearances refer to sPecifications - cLearances tocoMbustibLes
- 1200-c insert and sPecifications - cLearances tocoMbustibLes -
1700-c insert. See Figure 19 and 20 for examples of a masonry
replace and a zero-clearance replace with a direct connection.
1. Determine where the block-off plate will be installed; above
the top of the rebox (it must be high enough to easily
install the connection pipe) but below the damper area.
Look for a location that is level and in an area where the
plate can be mounted easily.
The measurement that will be needed are as followed (refer
to Figure 17 and 18):
A - The width at the front of the rebox at the height where
the block-off plate will be installed.
B - The width at the back of the rebox at the height where
the block-off plate will be installed.
C - Then depth of the block-off needed (the distance between A and B).
D - The distance of the center of the ue to the front of the replace opening. Refer to Step 3.
NOTE: In general masonry replaces have square reboxes while zero-clearance (metal) replaces
have domed rebox tops. Therefore zero-clearance block-off plates may be more difcult to install.
Insulation may be used around the edges to simplify sealing
the plate.
2. Create a cardboard template of the dimensions with 2” (51
cm) wide anges on each side. These anges will be used to
mount the block-off plate to the inside of the rebox. Bend
the anges downwards on the template and place it inside
the replace. Continue on if the template ts correctly in
its planned location. If the template does not t, make a
new template with the required corrections until it does t
correctly.
3. With the template in place, mark the location for the center
of the ue pipe when the unit is in place. If installing a
1200-C the distance will be approximately 8¼” or 9 15/16”
back from the replace opening. If installing a 1700-C the
distance will be approximately 12¾” or 14 7/16” back from

the replace opening. Remove the template and
cut a 6¼” diameter hole centered on this mark.
4. Using the template make the block-off plate of 24
gauge or thicker steel. Drill two (2) holes in each
ange for mounting the plate.
5. Mount the block-off plate using masonry screws in
a masonry replace and sheet metal screws on a
zero-clearance replace (screws need only be long
enough to penetrate the rst layer of metal).
6. Insulate the block-off plate using high -
temperature berglass insulation and furnace
cement.
7. After installing the unit into place and the pipe
through the block-off plate, use high - temperature
berglass insulation and furnace cement to seal
any gaps between the pipe and block-off plate
(allow the cement to dry for at least 24 hours
before burning).
Zero Clearance Notes:
The replace must not be altered, except for the
exceptions below. The permanent metal warning
label provided must be attached to the back of
the replace, stating that the replace may have
been altered to accommodate the insert, and
must be returned to original condition for use as a
conventional replace. The following modication of
factory built replaces are permissible: removal of
damper, removal of smoke shelf or bafe, removal
of ember catches, removal of re grate, removal of
viewing screen/curtain, and removal of doors. The
factory built chimney must be listed per UL 127
(US), and meet type HT requirements of UL 103
(US). Factory built replace chimneys tested to UL
127-1998, may be at the replace manufacturer’s
option, tested to the same criteria as UL 103 HT
requirements. If the chimney is not listed as meeting
HT requirements, or if the factory built replace was
tested prior to 1998, a full height listed chimney
liner must be installed from the appliance ue collar
to the chimney top. The liner must meet type HT
requirements (2100°F) per UL 1777 (US). The liner
must be securely attached to the insert ue collar
and the chimney top. To prevent room air passage
to the chimney cavity of the replace, seal either the damper area around the chimney liner with
high temperature sealant or the replace front with berglass batting.
