Maintenance Checks

Maintenance
1. Burn wood only, dry and well seasoned. The denser or heavier
the wood when dry, the greater its heat value. This is why
hardwoods are generally preferred. Green or wet wood will
cause a rapid buildup of creosote. If you feel it is necessary
to burn wet or unseasoned wood, do so only with the air inlet
set open enough to maintain a good strong re and fairly high
chimney temperatures. Do not attempt to burn overnight using
green or wet wood. Wet wood can cause up to 25% drop in
heater output, as well as contributing signicantly to creosote
buildup.
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid
to start a re. Do not burn garbage, or ammable uids such
a gasoline, naptha, or engine oil. We strongly recommend
that smoke detectors be installed.
2. Remove ashes frequently. Embers can roll out the door and
create a re hazard. Maintain a 25mm minimum ash base.
3. If glass becomes darkened through slow burning or poor
wood, it can readily be cleaned with any replace glass cleaner
when stove is cold. Never scrape with an object that might
scratch the glass. The type and amount of deposit on the
glass is a good indication of ue pipe and chimney buildup.
A light brown, dusty deposit that is easily wiped off usually
indicates good combustion and dry, well-seasoned wood and,
therefore, relatively clean pipes and chimney. On the other
hand, a black, greasy deposit that is difficult to remove is a
result of wet and green wood and too slow a burning rate.
This heavy deposit is building up at least as quickly in the
chimney.
WARNING: Only use materials supplied by the manufacturer
when doing maintenance or replacements.
4. DOOR GASKET -The gasket used by Pacic Energy requires
only light pressure to seal. This will prolong seal life. It is
important that the door seal be maintained in good condition.
Periodically inspect seals and replace if necessary.
5. DOOR GLASS - Do not slam loading door or otherwise impact
glass. When closing door, make sure that no logs protrude
to contact the glass. If the glass gets cracked or broken,
it must be replaced before using the stove. Replacement
glass can be obtained from your Dealer. The size required
is 289mm x 438mm x 5 mm. Ceramic glass must be used.
Do not substitute with any other type.
To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws and
remove the clamps, noting position for re-assembly. Remove all
particles of glass. Be careful, as they are very sharp. Install new
glass complete with gasket. Replace clamps and screws.
WARNING: Do not overtighten, tighten screws very
carefully.
- Do not clean glass when hot
- Do not use abrasive cleaners on glass
6. The area where boost combustion air enters the rebox must
be kept clear of excessive ash buildup which will block air
ow. This area is at the front of the rebox.
7. Do not store wood within heater installation clearances, or
within the space required for fuel loading and ash removal.
Keep the area around the heater clean and free of all
combustibles, furniture, newspapers, etc.
8. If a plated door requires cleaning, use mild soap and water
only. Use of abrasive cleaners will void warranty.
9. Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burning and ring
technique. Check daily for creosote buildup until experience
shows how often you need to clean to be safe.
10. Be aware that the hotter the re, the less creosote is deposited.
Weekly cleaning may be necessary in mild weather, even
though monthly cleaning is usually enough in the coldest
months when burning rates are higher.
11. Instruct all members of your family on the safe operation of
the heater. Ensure they have enough knowledge of the entire
system if they are expected to operate it. Stress the section
on chimney res and the importance of following the steps
outlined in “In Case of Chimney Fire”.
Baffle Removal
The baffle should be removed from the replace to clean and
inspect the chimney liner.
DO NOT OPERATEWITH BAFFLEASSEMBLY OR INSULATION
REMOVED.
Baffle Assembly Removal
Remove retaining pin at the back top of the rebox, just under
the baffle. Lift baffle up and pull forward to disconnect from the
supply tube. Tilt baffle sideways to drop down and remove from
rebox.
Inspect gasket between baffle and supply tube. If necessary,
replace with gasket # 139.5 available from your nearest Pacic
Energy Dealer.
Re-install baffle assembly and insulation by reversing order.
It is recommended to inspect the liner and connector monthly
and to have the liner cleaned annually or more frequently
if required.
Cover the opening in the top of the rear upow tube when
cleaning the chimney liner. If debris gets into the tube it can
cause the tube to prematurely burn out.

In Case of a Chimney Fire
1. Prepare to evacuate to ensure everyone’s safety. Have a
well understood plan of action for evacuation. Have a place
outside where everyone is to meet.
2. Close down the damper on stove.
3. Call local re department. Have a re extinguisher handy.
Contact your local re authority for further information on how
to handle a chimney re. It is most important that you have
a clearly understood plan on how to handle a chimney re.
4. After the chimney re is out, the chimney must be cleaned
and checked for stress and cracking before starting another
re. Also check combustibles around chimney and the roof.
This should be done by a certied inspector/chimney sweep.
Avoiding a Chimney Fire
There are two ways to avoid chimney res:
1. Do not let creosote build up to a point where a chimney re
is possible.
2. Do not have res in the heater that may ignite chimney res.
These are hot res, such as when burning household trash,
cardboard, Christmas tree limbs, or even ordinary fuel wood;
(eg. with a full load on a hot bed of coals and with the air inlet
wide open).
Creosote
Formation and Need for Removal
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic
vapours, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote.
The creosote vapours condense in the relatively cool chimney ue
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
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 a
chimney re.
1. Highest smoke densities occur when a large amount of wood
is added to a bed of hot coals and the air inlet is closed. The
heated wood generates smoke, but without ample air, the
smoke cannot burn. Smoke-free, clean burning requires small
fuel loads, two or three logs at a time or 1/4 to 1/2 of a fuel
load and leaving the air inlet relatively wide open, especially
during the rst 10 to 30 minutes after each loading, when most
of the smoke generating reactions are occurring. After 30
minutes or so, the air inlet can be turned down substantially
without excessive smoke generation.Wood coals create very
little creosote-producing smoke.
2. The cooler the surface over which wood smoke is passing,
the more creosote will be condensed. Wet or green wood
contributes signicantly to creosote formation as the excess
moisture that is boiled off cools the re, making it difficult for
the tars and gasses to ignite, thus creating dense smoke
and poor combustion. This moisture-laden smoke cools the
chimney, compounding the problem by offering the smoke
the ideal place to condense.
In summary, a certain amount of creosote is inevitable and must
be lived with. Regular inspection and cleaning is the solution.
The use of dry, seasoned wood and ample combustion air will
help to minimize the buildup.
Chimney Fires
The result of excessive creosote buildup is a chimney re.
Chimney res are dangerous. Chimney inside temperatures can
exceed 2000 degrees F. This causes much higher than normal
temperatures in the chimney and on its exterior surfaces thus
ignition of nearby or touching combustible material is more likely
during a chimney re. Proper clearances are critical if such a
re should occur.
Chimney res are easy to detect; they usually involve one or
more of the following:
- Flames and sparks shooting out of the top of the chimney
- A roaring sound
- Vibration of the chimney

Operation
Wood Selection
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiency
and lower emissions generally result when burning air-dried
seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or too green
or freshly cut hardwoods.
Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months or
more. Wet or undried wood will cause the re to smoulder and
produce large amounts of creosote. Wet wood also produces
very little heat and tends to go out often.
DO NOT BURN:
-*Salt water wood -Coal/charcoal
-Treated wood -*Garbage/Plastics
-Wet or green wood -Solvents
* These materials contain chlorides which will rapidly destroy
metal surfaces and void warranty.
Do not burn anything but wood. Other fuel, e.g. charcoal, can
produce large amounts of carbon monoxide, a tasteless, odourless
gas that can kill. Under no circumstances should you attempt to
barbecue in this heater.
How to Test Your Wood
Add a large piece of wood to the stove when it has a good, large
bed of coals. It is dry if it is burning on more than one side within
one minute. It is damp if it turns black and lights within three
minutes. If it sizzles, hisses and blackens without igniting in ve
minutes it is soaked and should not be burnt.
WARNING: Do not use grates or andirons to elevate the fuel.
Burn directly on the rebricks. Replace broken or missing
bricks. Failure to do so may create a hazardous condition.
Your Pacic Energy heater is designed for maximum overall
efficiency at a moderate ring rate. Overring is hazardous and
a waste of fuel. Too slow a burn contributes to creosote buildup
and lowers combustion efficiency.
Lighting the Fire
WARNING: 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 the heater while in use.
1) Adjust air control to "H" (high) position (pushed to the far left)
and open door.
2) Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater and
criss-cross with several pieces of dry kindling. Add a few
small pieces of dry wood on top.
3) Ignite the paper and close the door.
4) After the re has established itself, open the door and add a
few small logs. Close door.
5) Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and
wood has charred.
Normal Operation
1) Set air control to desired setting. If smoke pours down across
the glass (waterfall effect), this indicates you have shut the
control down too soon or you are using too low a setting. As
every home’s heating needs vary (i.e. insulation, windows,
climate, etc.), the proper setting can only be found by trial
and error and should be noted for future burns.
2) To refuel, adjust air control to "H" (high) position (pushed
to the far left) and give the re time to brighten. Open door
slowly, this will prevent backpuffing.
3) Use wood of different shape, diameter and length (up to 19").
Load your wood endwise and try to place the logs so that air
can ow between them. Always use dry wood.
4) Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that would
be hazardous when opening the door.
5) For extended or overnight burns, unsplit logs are preferred.
Remember to char the wood completely on "H" (high) setting
before adjusting air control for overnight burn.
WARNING: Always keep loading door closed when burning.
If the door is left partly open, gas and ames may be drawn
out of the replace stove opening creating risks from re and/
or smoke.This heater is not designed for open door burning,
unless a manufacturer supplied screen is used.
WARNING: This method is not a substitute for regular chimney
inspections and cleaning.
5) To achieve maximum ring rate, set control to “H” (high)
position (pushed to the far left). Do not use this setting other
than for starting or preheating fresh fuel loads.
DO NOT OVERFIRETHIS HEATER: Attempts to achieve heat
output rates that exceed heater design specications can
result in permanent damage to the heater and chimney.
WARNING: No alteration or modication of the combustion
air control assembly is permitted. Any tampering will void
warranty and could be very hazardous.
Do not store/place wood or other combustibles within the
required clearances surrounding the unit.

Blower
The Alderlea Insert comes equipped with twin variable speed
circulating air blowers. The blower system is thermostatically
controlled for automatic operation, as as well manually with a
convenient bypass switch.
Blower Operation
Automatic: To operate the blowers automatically, push the rocker
switch to the “OFF” position and set the fan speed control to a
desired setting.
This will allow the blowers to turn on automatically once the Insert
has come up to operating temperature. It will also shut the blower
off after the re has gone out and the appliance has cooled to
below a useful heat output range.
Manual: To manually operate the blowers, push the rocker switch
to the “ON” position and set the fan speed control to a desired
setting. This will bypass the temperature switch and allow full
control of the blower.
Suggested settings:
- Combustion air control setting of “L” (low) position (pushed
to the far right), operate blower speed control on “Low”.
- Combustion air control set at anything above “L” (low),
operate blower speed control at desired setting.
Electrical Supply
Circulating air blower electrical rating; 115V, 60 Hz, 1.1 A. For
your protection against shock hazard, use only a properly
grounded outlet that will accept a three-pronged plug. Do not cut
or remove the grounding prong. Do not route power cord under
unit. Power cord must be routed to avoid contact with any hot or
sharp surfaces.
All electrical connections to and within an appliance shall be in
accordance with the requirments od AS/NZS 3000,AS/NZS 3100
or ER 93 and the regulatory auhtority as appropriate.
Restarting After Extended or Overnight Burns
1) Open door and rake hot embers towards the front of the heater.
Add a couple of dry, split logs on top of embers, close door.
2) Adjust air control to “H” (high) position (pushed to the far left)
and in just a few minutes, logs should begin burning.
3) After wood has charred, reset air control to desired setting.
4) When burning at a slow rate for extended periods, occasionally
maintain a strong re under supervision for a couple of hours
to relieve rebox and chimney deposits as well as any of the
deposits on the glass.
More Wood, More Heat
Seasoned wood has approximately 7500 BTU’s per pound. If
you put 10 pounds of wood in your stove for an eight hour burn
the wood will be producing 9375 BTU’s per hour. (7500 BTU x
10 lbs / 8 hrs. = 9375 BTU’s per hr.). If you put 20 lbs of wood in
your stove for an eight hour burn you will get 18,750 BTU’s per
hr. (7500 BTU x 20 lbs / 8 hrs. = 18,750 BTU’s per hr.). This is
only an example and is based on 100% efficiency. In reality, your
stove should perform in the 70% efficiency range.
Experience will give you the right settings for proper combustion
and efficient burning. Remember, the air inlet setting is affected
by variables such as type of wood, outside temperature, chimney
size and weather conditions. With practice, you will become
procient in operating your heater and will obtain the performance
for which it was designed.
Proper Draft
1) Draft is the force which 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.
2) Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the
appliance. An uncontrollable burn or a glowing red stove part
or chimney indicates excessive draft.
3) Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing into the room and
plugging of the chimney. Smoke leaking into the room through
appliance and chimney connector joints indicates inadequate
draft.
Ash Removal
Whenever ashes get 3 to 4 inches deep in your rebox, and when
re has burned down and cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave
an ash bed approximately 1 inch deep on the rebox bottom to
help maintain a hot charcoal bed.
Disposal of Ashes
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight tting
lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-
combustible 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 dispersed, they should be
retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly
cooled. Other waste should not be placed in this container!

Inspect your replace for cracks, loose mortar or other physical
defects. If repairs are required, they should be completed before
installing your insert.
The replace chimney must be suitable for wood burning use.
Check for creosote build up or other obstructions, especially if it
has not been in use for some time - have chimney swept.
The existing replace damper is to be locked open or removed
completely.
The services of a competent or certied installer are strongly
recommended to install or commission this installation.
WARNING: Do not remove bricks or mortar from your
existing replace.
Exception: Masonry or steel, including the damper plate, may

12 ALT5.ASCINSB 150714-24

be removed from the smoke shelf and adjacent damper frame if
necessary to accommodate a chimney liner, provided that their
removal will not weaken the structure of the replace and chimney,
and will not reduce protection for combustible materials to less
than that required by the National Building Code.
The Insert must be installed in accordance with local and or
national building codes. The two methods of ue connection
that are acceptable in most areas are:
Full Flue Liner: (Fig.2) where a stainless steel rigid or exible
liner extends from the Insert ue collar to the top of the chimney.
For difficult installations, this insert is approved for use with
a SPND.3OFFSETA - 3” ue offset box. Only this offset box
is approved for use with this insert. The use of any other
offset box may cause a hazard and/ or void any warranty.
Full Flue Liner (Fig #2)
This replace insert must be installed with a continuous liner of
150mm diameter extending from the replace insert to the top
of the chimney.
Consult your local Dealer about relining your replace chimney.
1) Measure the chimney height from the top of the existing ue
to the oor of the hearth. This will allow extra length of liner
for ashing and rain cap.
2) Feed the stainless steel liner from the top of the chimney,
through the damper area and into the replace cavity.
3) Attach a stove connector to the bottom of the liner, as per the
instructions provided with the chimney liner.
4) To mount optional rear leveling leg bolts, prop unit up to access
threaded inserts under rear of unit.Thread supplied bolts into
inserts, set depth to correspond to depth of replace drop.
5) Push the Insert into position inside the replace and attach
the connector to the stove collar and secure with screws.
Use the rear adjusting legs to level the Insert.
Note: To access the holes for securing connector to the stove
collar, remove the top front casing.To remove, undo the screws
located on both sides of the top front(Fig #3) then pull casing
toward you and up. Reverse these steps to install casing top.
If it is necessary to get access to the connector pipe through
the ue outlet of the Insert, the baffle can be removed (see
Baffle Removal section).
6) Measure, trim and shape a top ashing to t the existing
chimney ue. Plan for a 25mm to 38mm overlap on each
side. Place ashing over top of the liner and seat rmly
against the tile.
7) Screw ashing collar to liner. Caulk gap around ashing with
RTV silicone.
8) Attach a rain cap to the end of the liner. A storm collar should
be used. (Follow vent manufacturers instructions.)

Connect to a listed chimney complying with the requirements of AS/NZS2918/2001 and a
chimney suitable for use with solid fuel that is lined and in good condition and meets local
building codes. The chimney ue size should be the same as the stove outlet for optimal
performance. Reducing or increasing the ue size may adversely affect stove performance.
Chimney ue exit is to be minimum 1000mm above roof and 600mm above highest projec-
tion within 3000mm. The installation must meet all local codes. Do not connect this unit to
a chimney ue serving another appliance. Minimum system height is 4600mm (measured
from base of appliance).

two ways:
1) Outside air (O/A) supply: Remove cover from ash clean
out in existing replace. Place a rodent screen in place of
the cover. Install the Insert as described in the installation
section, making sure not to cover the opening of the air inlet.
When installation is complete, seal surround to replace and
anywhere else air may enter. This will ensure combustion air
is drawn from outside the house and into the 229mm x 51mm
intake at the lower rear of the appliance.
2) Room air supply: Install the Insert as described in the
installation section. When the installation is complete, do not
seal surround to replace.This will allow enough combustion
air to enter the replace cavity and the Insert. The knockouts
in the casing sides and the O/A cover can be removed to
supplement air supply (Fig.6 & 7).Once removed, combustion
air is drawn from the room into the lower front of the Insert.
Removal: The O/A cover should be removed prior to installation.
For better access, tip the Insert onto its back.
1. Using a 5/16” wrench, remove the screw securing the O/A
cover to the rebox (Fig. #5 & 6).
This unit is not designed to be operated with the ring door open.In
addition to the obvious hazard of sparks landing on combustibles,
an open re door will cause the heater to draw air from the living
space and possibly cause suffocation.
The living space around the heater must be well ventilated with
good air circulation.Anything that may cause a negative pressure
can cause gases or fumes to be pulled into the living area.
Fan Speed Controller Relocation
