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 fires
and the importance of following the steps outlined "In Case of Chimney Fire".
Chimney Smoke and Creosote Formation
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 periodically (at least once
every two months) during the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has
accumulated (3 mm. or more), it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re.
1. Highest smoke densities and emissions 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 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 the 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 difcult for the tars and gases 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. Regular inspection and cleaning is the solution. The
use of dry, seasoned wood and ample combustion air will help to minimize annoying smoke emissions and
creosote buildup.
Chimney Fires
The dangerous side effect of excessive creosote buildup is a chimney re. This causes much higher than
normal temperatures in the chimney and on its exterior surfaces. Temperatures inside the chimney can
exceed 2000°F (1100°C). Ignition of nearby or touching combustible material is more likely during a chimney
re. Proper clearances are critical to prevent damage during such a re.
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
CAUTION: Never use 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 it is in
use.
Safety

5
SUPER INSERT LE 210619-28 100002686
To Avoid a Chimney Fire
1. Burn wood cleanly. Do not burn wet wood or turn down the unit too quickly after loading.
2. Do not let creosote build up to a point where a chimney re is possible.
3. Do not have res in the heater that may ignite chimney res. These are excessively 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 for more time than is needed to completely char a
fresh fuel load.)
4. The Chimney and connector pipe should be inspected /cleaned periodically.
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 air inlet on stove.
3. Call local re department. Have a re extinguisher handy. Contact your local municipal or provincial 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 cracks before
starting another re. Also check combustibles around the chimney and the roof.
• We recommend the services of professionals who are certied by a “Qualied agency”;such as
NFI (National Fireplace Institute®) in the United States,
CSIA (Chimney Safety Institute of America) in the United States and Canada,
WETT (Wood Energy Technology Transfer) in Canada or
APC (Association des Professionnels du Chauffage) in Quebec
Curing of the Paint Finish
To achieve the best nish, the paint on your stove must be baked on. When burning your stove for the rst
few times it is very important that the room be well ventilated. Open all windows and doors. Smoke and
fumes caused by the curing process may cause discomfort to some individuals. See Hang Tag from Forrest
Paint.
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 closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Other waste should not be placed in this
container.

6
SUPER INSERT LE 210619-28
100002687
CAUTION: Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin
burns.
WARNING: Always keep loading door closed when burning. This heater is not designed for open door
burning.
WARNING: No alteration or modification of the combustion air control assembly is permitted. Any
tampering will void warranty and could be very hazardous.
WARNING: Do not use grates or andirons to elevate the fuel. Burn directly on the fire bricks. Replace
broken or missing bricks. Failure to do so may create a hazardous condition.
Wood Selection
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efciency and lower emissions generally result when
burning air-dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods.
Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months or more. Wet or undried wood will cause
the fire to smoulder and produce large amounts of smoke and creosote. Wet wood also produces very
little heat and tends to go out often. Wood should be stored under cover away from open flame or heat
sources.
DO NOT BURN :
• Salt water wood * • Treated wood
• Wet or green wood • Coal/charcoal
• Garbage* • Solvents
• Lawn clippings/yard waste • Unseasoned wood
• Railroad ties • Manure or animal remains
• Materials containing rubber, including tires • Materials containing plastic
• Construction or demolition debris • Materials containing asbestos
• Waste petroleum products, paints, paint thin-
ners, or asphalt products
• Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or
particleboard.
* These materials contain chlorides which will rapidly destroy metal surfaces and void warranty.
Burning these materials may result in the release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause
smoke.
Do not burn anything but wood. Other fuels, eg. 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.
The prohibition against burning these materials does not prohibit the use of re starters made from paper,
cardboard, saw dust, wax and similar substances for the purpose of starting a re in an affected wood 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.
Operation

7
SUPER INSERT LE 210619-28 100002686
Lighting a fire
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a fire. Do not burn garbage, or
flammable fluids such as gasoline, naptha, or engine oil.
1. Adjust air control to “High” position(all the way to the left) and open door.
2. Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater and crisscross with several pieces of dry kindling.
Add a few small pieces of dry wood on top.
3. Ignite the paper and leave the door ajar approximately 1/2"(13mm) - 1"(25mm) until the wood kindling is
fully engulfed in ame. CAUTION: Do NOT leave the stove unattended while door is open.
4. After the kindling is fully engulfed add a few small logs. Close door.
5. Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and wood has charred.
Normal Operation
WARNING: This Insert has a manufacturer-set minimum low 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 the operating instructions in this manual.
1. Set air control to a 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. The wide range control panel
makes nding the desired setting for your application easy. As every home's heating needs vary (ie.
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 high, and give the re time to brighten. Open the door slowly, this will
prevent back pufng.
3. Use wood of different shape, diameter and length (up to 18"(457mm)). Load your wood endwise and try
to place the logs so that the 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
maximum setting before adjusting air control for overnight burn.
• 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 wood or wet wood. Wet wood can cause up to 25% drop in heater output, as well
as contributing signicantly to creosote buildup.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER:
Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specifications can result in
permanent damage to the heater and chimney. A glowing red top or vent pipe are indications of overring.
Failure to rectify an over ring condition can be hazardous and may void the manufacturer's warranty.

8
SUPER INSERT LE 210619-28
100002687
Convection Blower Operation
The Insert comes equipped with twin variable speed circulating air blowers. The blower system is
thermostatically controlled for automatic operation, as well as manually with a convenient bypass switch.
Automatic Blower Operation: Allows the blowers to turn on automatically once the Insert has come up to
operating temperature. It will also shut the blowers off after the re has gone out and the appliance has
cooled to below a useful heat output range. Push the rocker switch to the “OFF” position and set the fan
speed control to a desired setting.
Manual Blower Operation: 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 blowers.
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.
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 high and in just a few minutes, logs should begin burning.
3. After wood has charred, reset air control to desired setting.
4. To achieve maximum ring rate, set control to high "H". Do not use this setting other than for starting or
preheating fresh fuel loads.
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.
Recommended draft is between .06"w.c. - .09" w.c. when hot, on high
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 back pufng into the room and plugging of the chimney. Smoke leaking into
the room through appliance and chimney connector joints indicates inadequate draft.
Remember the correct air inlet setting is affected by variables such as type of wood, outside temperature,
chimney size and weather conditions.
Ash Removal
Caution: Ashes are to be removed only when the heater is cold. Whenever ashes get 3"(76mm) to 4"(102mm)
deep in your rebox, and when re has burned down and cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash bed
approximately 1" (25 mm) deep on the rebox bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.
See section "Disposal of Ashes" on page 5.

SUPER INSERT LE 210619-28 100002686
Door Gaskets -
The gasket used by Pacic Energy (7/8"(22mm) medium density berglass rope) 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. Follow the instructions included in the kit (prt# 80000156). The kit can
be obtained from your nearest Pacic Energy dealer.
Door Glass -
Do not slam loading door or otherwise impact glass. When closing door, make sure that no logs pro-
trude to impact 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. Use 8-13/16"(224mm) x 15-1/4"(387mm) x 5 mm.
Ceramic glass only. Do not substitute with any other type.
To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws and remove the clamps and frame, noting position
for re-assembly. Remove all particles of glass . Be careful as they are very sharp. Install new glass complete
with gasket. Replace frame, clamps and screws.
CAUTION:
- do not overtighten, tighten screws very carefully
- do not clean glass when hot
- do not use abrasive cleaners on glass
1. If glass becomes darkened through slow burning or poor wood, it can readily be cleaned with 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 the 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 difcult 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.
2. 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.
3. 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 loose combustibles, furniture,
newspapers, etc.
4. If the plated door requires cleaning, use mild soap and water only. Use of abrasive cleaners will void
warranty.
5. 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.
6. 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. When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which combine with
expelled moisture to form creosote.

Full Flue Liner - (Required in Canada)
In Canada, this Fireplace Insert must be installed with a continuous chimney liner extending from the Fireplace
Insert's Flue Collar to the top of the chimney. The chimney liner must conform to the class 3 requirements of
CAN/ULC-B365, Standard for Lining Systems for Existing Masonry or Factory-Built Chimneys and Vents, or
CAN/ULC-S640, Standard for Lining Systems for New Masonry Chimneys. The Insert is equipped with a 6"
I.D. Flue Collar.
1. Measure the chimney height from the top of the existing Chimney 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 top of the chimney, through the damper area and into the replace cav-
ity. Attach a "stove to liner" adapter to the bottom of the liner as per the liner manufacturer's instructions.
3. The Flue Collar is packaged in the stove. Attach
the Flue Collar to the liner adapter and secure
with three Stainless screws. Caulk around
connections with high temp stove cement.
Ensure the gasket is in good working shape.
4. Remove both the right & left blower covers.
Remove the Torx screw on each side, located in
the top rear corner. Lift up and pull the covers
towards you, to release the tabs.
5. Remove the Cast Top by loosening the two
wing bolts and pulling toward you. Remove the
Bafe.
6. Push unit into the replace. Use the front or rear
adjustment legs, level the insert depending on
your hearth conguration. (NOTE: Adjustment
legs are located in the bottom, sides, front and
rear of the insert).
7. Reach through the ue opening and pull down
on the Flue Collar with the tool provided until
the bolts pass through the mounting holes in the
ue opening. Install the clamps and nuts. Center
the collar on the opening and tighten the nuts.
8. Measure, trim and shape a Chimney top ashing
to t the existing chimney ue. Plan for a 1” to
1-1/2” overlap on each side. Place ashing over
top of the liner and seat rmly against the ue
tile.
9. Attach a rain cap to the end of the liner. A storm
collar may be used if desired.
10. Install the surround See "Surround Assembly and Installation" on page 20, Re-Install the top and
Blower covers in the reverse order they were removed.

Direct Flue Connection (permitted only in the USA)
Pacic Energy highly recommends the use of a full liner as the safest installation and providing optimum
performance. When connected to a full liner, the Insert is able to draft correctly and will prevent problems
such as difcult start-ups and smoking out the door.
Note: A clean-out door may be required under local codes, when a direct ue connection is used. Consult
local codes. A seal must be provided in the chimney throat.
1. Measure from the top of the rst chimney ue liner tile to the top of the Insert. Allow extra length of liner to
insert into ue tile.
2. Feed the stainless steel liner through the damper area and into the rst chimney ue tile. Attach a “stove
to liner” adapter to the bottom of the liner as per the liner manufacturer’s instructions. Seal around where
the liner passes thru in the Chimney Throat.
3. Follow steps 3-9 on the previous page.

Combustion Air
Consult local building codes regarding combustion air supply. Intake or combustion air can be supplied to the
Insert in one of two ways:
1. Outside air supply: Remove the cover from ash clean out in your 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 intake on the bot-
tom of the appliance.
2. Room air supply: Remove the two screws securing the Decorative Cover under the ashlip. Remove
the screws holding the Room Air Cover to the Base bottom and discard the this cover. Re-install the
Decorative Cover and tighten screws (Figure 7). Combustion Air will be drawn from the room through the
front of the unit.
Into a Factory Built Fireplace
Your Insert may be installed into a factory built replace (size permitting) with the following requirements:
1. Inspect your replace for damage or other physical defects. The replace must be in good working
condition. If in doubt about its condition, seek professional advice. Check for creosote build up or other
obstructions inside the chimney, especially if it has not been in use for some time. Before installing, clean
your chimney system thoroughly.
2. A full stainless steel rigid or exible ue liner meeting type HT requirements (2100°F) per UL1777 (U.S.) or
ULC S635 (Canada) must be used for both safety and performance. The liner must be securely attached
to the Insert ue collar and the chimney top.
3. The surround must be sealed to the replace front or the damper area around the chimney liner must be
sealed to prevent room air entering the chimney cavity of the replace.
4. The air ow within and around the replace must not be altered by the installation of the Insert (i.e. no
blockage of louvers or cooling air inlet or outlet ports). This includes the circulating air chambers in a steel
replace or metal heat circulator.
5. Alteration of the replace in any manner is not permitted with the following exceptions:
• External trim pieces which do not affect the operation of the replace may be removed and stored on or
within the replace for re-assembly if the Insert is removed.
• The chimney damper may be removed to install the liner.
