Introducing Your Bari Wood Stove
Thank you for purchasing a HASE Collection Bari
woodstove from Hearthstone Quality Home Heating
Products. This stove will provide years of comfortable heat.
This stove also provides the benefits of advanced
technology in wood burning without the cost and
maintenance requirements of a catalytic device. The Bari
blends modern technology with the unique beauty and
qualities of steel and soapstone. We trust that you will
appreciate the quality of this handcrafted product.
Your Bari woodstove is designed to burn efficiently, and
produce a large amount of heat. However, you should not
consider your Bari the primary heat source for your home.
The Bari’s unique ability to rotate 180 degrees, and the
very large curved glass window allow you to enjoy the fire
from a variety of locations in the room.
Please read this manual in its entirety. Its purpose is to
familiarize you with your stove's safe installation, proper
break-in, operation and maintenance. It contains extremely
important information so keep it handy and refer to it often.
A qualified heating technician may need this owner’s
manual as a reference when installing this stove in your
home. There are national, state, and local building codes
that direct the technician on how to install your stove.
These codes stipulate the dimension of stovepipe and
clearances to walls, ceilings, hearth, and other combustible
surfaces. The codes exist to reduce the risk of fire. Failure
to follow these instructions can result in fire, property
damage, bodily injury, and even death.
Install the stove in a safe, open area, away from traffic
flow, doors, and hallways. If possible, try to install the
stove near an existing chimney and chimney connector. It
is extremely important to install this stove with the proper
clearance from combustible surfaces. You can purchase
specific connector pipe and special wall coverings as
specified by this manual and the NFPA 211 code to protect
combustible surfaces. Keep furniture, drapes, curtains,
wood, paper, and other combustibles at least 36 inches (92
cm) away from the stove. Never install the stove in a
location where gasoline, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or
other flammable liquids are used or stored.
Install the stove in your living area to allow heat to radiate
naturally to distant rooms. Do not install your stove in a
poorly insulated area. This is inefficient and would likely
result in higher fuel usage and possibly unsafe burning
conditions.
SAFETY NOTICE:
AN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED STOVE CAN
RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE. FOR YOUR
SAFETY, CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE
INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS. CONTACT
LOCAL BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS
ABOUT RESTRICTIONS AND
INSTALLATION INSPECTION IN YOUR
AREA.
The safety of your stove will depend on many factors,
some of which include: distance to combustible objects,
correct venting, and adequate chimney maintenance.
Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact
your dealer for additional information.
Contact your dealer for any necessary warranty service.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Read and understand this Owner's Manual thoroughly
before installing and using this stove.
Make sure to install your stove
According to the manufacturer's recommendations,
In accordance with all applicable codes, and
With the proper sized chimney.
When using your stove:
Warn children and others of the danger of touching
hot, radiating surfaces of your woodstove. For your
additional safety, you can purchase hearth and stove
guards through your local dealer.
Burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower
emissions result when burning air-dried, seasoned
wood, as compared to green or freshly cut wood.
Use caution when loading firewood into a hot stove.
Keep the front door closed and secured at all times
except when loading wood.
Keep the ash pan tray fully inserted and the handle
tightly latched.
Inspect the stovepipe, chimney connector and
chimney, as recommended.
Follow these safety precautions:
Never modify this stove in any way.
Never burn kiln dried, painted or treated wood in this
stove.
Never burn garbage or trash, colored or glossy paper,
solvents, plywood, artificial logs, cardboard, or
driftwood, in this stove.
Never burn coal in this stove.
Never use gasoline, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or
other flammable fluids to start or invigorate the fire.
These fuels will cause dangerous burning conditions in
the stove. Keep all such materials away from the stove.
Never use the stove if the ash pan is open, damaged,
not present, or does not fully seal. The ash pan cover
must be present under the pan to ensure the pan seals
properly.
Never use a wood grate or other device to elevate the
fire.
Never allow logs in the firebox to contact with the
glass when the door is closed.
Never slam the door or use the door to force wood in
to the stove.
Never over-fire your stove. (See page 17)
Never put articles of clothing or candles on a hot
stove.
Never connect the stove to a flue used by another
appliance.
Other safety guidelines
Keep all combustible items such as furniture, drapes,
clothing, and other items, at least 36" (0.92 m) from
the stove (See page 8)
Install a smoke detector, preferably in an area away
from your wood stove.
Keep a fire extinguisher handy. We recommend the
type rated "A B C."
Dispose of ashes properly. (See page 17)
Keep children and pets away from the stove when it is
burning; they could be seriously injured by touching a
hot stove.
Clean your chimney system as needed. (See page 18)

PERIODIC CHECKLIST Floor Size of Heated Area
Up to a maximum of 1,200 square feet. Factors unique
to your home can reduce the square footage the stove
will heat. Home insulation value, number and
efficiency of windows, floor plan, stove placement,
quality of the fuel and other conditions may limit the
heating ability of the stove.
Perform each of these tasks at the specified intervals.
At the End of Every Week:
•Empty ashes from the firebox and ash pan, sooner if
the firebox or the ash pan are full.
At the Beginning of Every Other Month: Firebox Capacity
•Depending upon your use of the stove, visually inspect
the chimney connector and chimney for creosote.
(Please see page 18)
1.25 cubic feet or 46 pounds of wood (The amount and
weight of wood contained per cubic foot of firebox
volume can vary from 15 to 36 lbs. per cubic foot
depending on type of wood, moisture content, packing
density and other factors. As a constant for comparison
and test purposes, we are assuming 20 lbs. of seasoned
hardwood per cubic foot of firebox volume).
•Check door seals using the "dollar bill test." - When
the stove is cool, shut the door on a dollar bill. If the
bill pulls out without any resistance, then your stove’s
door is not sealing properly. To tighten the seal, adjust
the door latch mechanism or change the door gasket.
(Refer to page 18.)
Maximum Log Length: 17” (43 cm), vertically

thoroughly. Replace any pieces that show signs of rust
or deterioration.
Height: 41.5" (105 cm)
Diameter: 19.5" (49.5cm)
•Inspect and, if necessary, clean your chimney.
•Thoroughly clean out the inside of the stove.
•Inspect all door gasket material and replace if worn,
frayed, cracked or extremely hard.
•Inspect and replace cracked or damaged vermiculite
panels.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

Setting Up Your Bari Wood Stove
UNPACKING
HearthStone packages your Bari stove with the greatest
care so that it ships safely. Under certain circumstances,
however, damage may occur during transit and handling.
When you receive the Bari, carefully unpack and inspect
the stove and all accompanying parts. Make sure that all
parts are included in the box. If any parts are damaged or
missing, please contact your dealer immediately.
The stone panels on this stove are large and heavy (150
pounds total). Use a second person to assist in handling
the panels to avoid injury, or damaging the panels.
Despite the mass of each piece of soapstone, they will
break if dropped.
INSTALLING YOUR STOVE
Choose a place to install your Bari woodstove. Inspect
this location to make sure that the stove and stovepipes
will have the required clearance from combustible
materials that are near the stove. Combustibles include
walls, floor, ceiling, and chimney chase. You must
carefully consider the clearances to all of these
combustibles before actually connecting your stove.
If the floor is made of combustible material, then a non-
combustible floor protector is required between the floor
and the stove. An example of a non-combustible floor
protector is a hearth constructed with a continuous layer
of a listed backer board (such as Micore, Wonder-Board
or Durock) used for ember protection with a tile, brick,
slate, or another non-combustible facing.
If you use a close clearance connector pipe, ensure it is
listed with Underwriter’s Laboratories. Check the listing
of your pipe with UL for the correct clearances.
The diagrams in this manual represent typical
installations, but are specific to the Simpson Dura-Vent
DVL brand.
Clearances to NFPA Code 211 Protected Surfaces
You can reduce the clearances to combustible surfaces by
using any National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA)
approved wall protection system. Please refer to NFPA
Code 211 for specifications and complete details. You can
obtain this information directly from the NFPA.

HEARTH REQUIREMENTS AND FLOOR
PROTECTION
Ensure combustible flooring is protected with a covering of
noncombustible material. The floor protection must extend
beyond the body of the stove at the minimum as follows:
In Figures 1 and 2 you will find two hearth options; one
hearth for the freely rotating stove and the other for the
locked stove.
* Installations in Canada require 18” (45.72 cm) of floor
protection on both side and front.
** Rear clearance required only if stovepipe runs horizontally
back above the top of the stove.

The Bari wood stove has a unique feature that allows it to
rotate. This rotation allows the body of the stove to spin a
full 90 degrees to either side. In order to install the Bari onto
the smaller hearth protector shown in Figure 2, you must
lock the stove in place. To do this, follow the instructions
below:
ROTATION LOCK INSTALL PROCEDURE
1. Open the lower control door and locate the rotation control.
2. Ensure the stove is in its 0-degree orientation (line up the index marks)(see fig. 3), and then position the stove to center
the door on the hearth.
3. Lift the control lever and remove the allen head screw (see fig. 4).
4. Rotate the control clockwise until the tangs release, and then lift the control out of its position (see fig. 5).
5. Insert the rotation lock, and line up the mounting screw holes (fig. 6).
6. Insert the screw and tighten securely with the allen wrench (fig. 7).

OUTSIDE AIR SUPPLY
(Kit #91- 53700)
You can connect an outside air source directly to this
stove using an optional outside air kit. The advantage of
providing outside air directly to the stove is that the air
used by the stove for combustion is taken from outside the
residence rather than from within the room where the
stove is located.
The outside air kit for this stove allows for the direct
connection of the stove's air intake to a minimum 3" (76
mm) diameter duct (supplied by others) which leads to the
outside of the house. When considering placement of the
duct from the outside of the house to the hearth, keep in
mind the need to avoid structural members of the house.
The outside air kit will attach to the back of the stove.
The International Residential Code (IRC) does not allow
the outside air duct to terminate higher than the appliance.
Some building officials also do not like to see any vertical
rise in the duct’s termination. HearthStone recommends
the termination be at the same level, or lower than the air
intake on the stove.
Locate the termination of the duct on the outside wall of
the home in such a manner to avoid the possibility of
obstruction by snow, leaves or other material. Screen the
termination using ¼” x ¼” mesh rodent screen and cover
it with a rain/wind proof hood (flex pipe, outside
termination, mesh, and hood supplied by others) Contact
your dealer for availability).
VENTING COMPONENTS AND CONFIGURATION
REQUIREMENTS
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A
CHIMNEY FLUE USED BY ANOTHER
APPLIANCE
•Single wall connector that is 24 MSG or 25 MSG
blued steel stovepipe.
•Double wall connector (close clearance pipe) which is
used with a listed, factory-built “Type HT" chimney or
with a masonry chimney to reduce clearances, is
available from several manufacturers, your dealer can
help you choose. Some air insulated connector pipe
models available are Simpson Dura Vent DVL and
Metalbestos DS. Security, GSW and Ameritec also
have acceptable close clearance connector pipe.
•When used in a mobile home, a spark arrester is
required. (See page 14)
•The chimney connector cannot pass through a floor or
ceiling, nor any attic or roof space, closet or similar
concealed space. Where venting requires passage
through a wall or partition of combustible
construction, the installation must conform to NFPA
Code 211 or CAN/CSA - B365.
•It is very important to follow minimum clearances for
chimney connectors to combustibles such as walls and
ceilings when installing the stove. Typical chimney
connector clearances are outlined below. The single wall
clearances are generic; the double wall clearances shown
are for Simpson DuraVent DVL. CHECK THE
SPECIFICATIONS FROM THE MANUFACTURER
OF YOUR CONNECTOR.
Components of a Venting System
The complete venting system consists of several
components: chimney connector, wall thimble, wall pass-
through, chimney, and liner. It is absolutely necessary that
you install all of these components and maintain the
clearances to combustibles discussed earlier to ensure a safe
stove installation.
To protect against the possibility of a house fire, you must
properly install and constantly maintain the venting system.
Upon inspection, immediately replace rusted, cracked, or
broken components.
•The chimney connector is the stovepipe from the
woodstove to the chimney. The chimney connector
stovepipe is 6" (152 mm) diameter, 24 MSG or 25 MSG
blued steel connector pipe. Do not use aluminum or
galvanized steel pipe - they cannot withstand the
extreme temperatures of a wood fire.
•The thimble is a manufactured (or site-constructed)
device installed in combustible walls through which the
chimney connector passes to the chimney. It keeps the
walls from igniting. You must use a wall thimble when
installing a chimney connector through a combustible
wall to the chimney.
•A wall pass-through (or chimney support package) also
keeps the walls from igniting. You must use one when
connecting through a wall or ceiling to a prefabricated
chimney.
•Only install this stove to a lined masonry chimney or an
approved high temperature prefabricated residential
type building heating appliance chimney. Do not
connect this stove to a chimney serving another
appliance; you will compromise the safe operation of
both the wood stove and the connected appliance.
WARNING:
DO NOT CONNECT THIS APPLIANCE TO ANY
AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
•A liner is the UL 1777 or ULC S635 (for factory built
fireplace or masonry) chimney.
You must connect your stove to a chimney comparable to
those recommended in this manual. Do not use stovepipe as
