the instructions contained in this manual.
Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) MUST BE WORN AT ALL
TIMES when servicing and maintaining any of the HEATMOR™ Stainless
Steel Outdoor Furnace product line.
This manual describes the installation and operation of the HEATMOR™
200X and the HEATMOR™ 350X cataytic equipped wood heater. These
heaters meet the 2015 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s crib wood
emission limits for wood heaters sold after May 15, 2015. Under specic
test conditions the 200X can output 54,019 Bru/hr. Under specic test con-
ditions the 350X catalytic equipped wood heater can output 89,753 Bru/hr.
This wood heater has a manufacturer-set burn rate that must not be altered.
It is against federal regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate
this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instructions in
this manual.
The 350X contains a catalytic combustor, which needs periodic inspection
and replacement for proper operation. It is against federal regulations to
operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instruc-
tions in this manual, or if the catalytic element is deactivated or removed.

Installation
Installation should be performed by a qualied installer and will comply with all the require-
ments of the authority having jurisdiction over the installation.
1. The HEATMOR™ furnace is designed for outside installations, away from other build-
ings.
2. Please observe the following “Clearance to Combustibles” guidelines.
3. Before installing the furnace, always check any and all applicable state, provincial, and
local regulations.
4. HEATMOR™ Inc. strongly recommends not installing a HEATMOR™ Stainless Steel
Outdoor Furnace within 50’ of any ammable structure.
5. A HEATMOR™ Stainless Steel Outdoor Furnace should be located with consideration
to your neighbor’s property and in accordance with local ordinances. The HEATMOR™
Outdoor Furnace is not designed to be located in densely populated areas.
6. HEATMOR™ suggests the use of brass ttings when installing the unit.
7. Before installing the HEATMOR™ furnace, contact and inform your insurance agent.
8. The HEATMOR™ Outdoor Furnace is to be installed on a concrete base only. Any
attempt to place the furnace on any other surface may void the warranty.
9. Do not connect the HEATMOR™ furnace to the chimney of an existing heating sys-
tem.
10. This unit was not designed, nor is it recommended, for use as a stand-alone heating
system. A back up source of heat must be in place to prevent the outdoor furnace from
freezing and to provide supplementary heat for the heated buildings.
11. Do not pressurize the HEATMOR™ Outdoor Furnace. This unit is designed to operate
under atmospheric pressure only.
12. Place the in-line ll/drain assembly in a location where the drained contents of the
HEATMOR™ will not cause damage to the surrounding areas or its content.
To unit back = 96"
To unit front = 48"
To unit top = 18"
To unit sides = 6"
To chimney = 18"

Electrical
1. Do not connect the electrical components of the HEATMOR™ Outdoor Furnace to any
other electrical appliance.
2. This HEATMOR™ Outdoor Furnace operates on 115-volt power only. Do not connect
the furnace to a 220-volt electrical supply.
3. HEATMOR™ Inc. recommends a licensed professional electrician make all the
necessary electrical connections involved with the installation of the furnace.
4. Always disconnect the HEATMOR™ Outdoor Furnace from the main electrical supply
before servicing any of the electrical components of the HEATMOR™ Outdoor Fur-
nace.
5. Always disconnect any existing electrical connections to any in-house heating system,
before installing the outdoor furnace to any existing indoor heating system or applianc-
es.
6. The red wire from the high-limit aquastat on the back of the HEATMOR™ should
be wired to a 120v indoor temperature control to override the thermostat. This will
dissipate excess heat in the event of a possible malfunction with the HEATMOR™.
The red wire is capped off in the electrical junction box when the HEATMOR™ is
new.
Other
1. The unit may be connected to an existing indoor boiler system by installing a wa-
ter-to-water heat exchanger.
2. HEATMOR™ INC. recommends that you contact a licensed professional plumber to
make all necessary plumbing installations between the HEATMOR™ furnace and the
existing heating system of your building(s).
3. Do not operate the HEATMOR™ furnace until all electrical and water line connections
have been properly installed and tested.
4. Do not allow any re in the rebox until the HEATMOR™ has the correct amount of
water and sand installed.
5. DO NOT OVER-FIRE THIS HEATER. Attempts to achieve heat output rates that ex-
ceed heater design specications can result in permanent damage to the heater and
to the catalytic combustor if so equipped.
