2.2 ZoneHeatingandHowtoMakeitWorkforYou
YournewEcoMaxxDecozeroclearancewoodinbuiltisaspaceheater,whichmeansitisintendedtoheat
theareaitisinstalledin,aswellasspacesthatconnecttothatarea,althoughtoalowertemperature.This
iscalledzoneheatinganditisanincreasinglypopularwaytoheathomesorspaceswithinhomes.
Zoneheatingcanbeusedtosupplementanotherheatingsystembyheatingaparticularspacewithina
home,suchasabasementfamilyroomoranadditionthatlacksanotherheatsource.
Housesofmoderatesizeandrelativelynewconstructioncanbeheatedwithaproperlysizedandlocated
zeroclearancewoodinbuilt.Wholehousezoneheatingworksbestwhenthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltis
locatedinthepartofthehousewherethefamilyspendsmostofitstime.Thisisnormallythemainliving
areawherethekitchen,diningandlivingroomsarelocated.Bylocatingthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltin
thisarea,youwillgetthemaximumbenefitoftheheatitproducesandwillachievethehighestpossible
heatingefficiencyandcomfort.Thespacewhereyouspendmostofyourtimewillbewarmest,while
bedroomsandbasement(ifthereisone)willstaycooler.Inthisway,youwillburnlesswoodthanwith
otherformsofheating.
Althoughthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltmaybeabletoheatthemainlivingareasofyourhousetoan
adequatetemperature,westronglyrecommendthatyoualsohaveaconventionaloil,gasorelectric
heatingsystemtoprovidebackupheating.
Yoursuccesswithzoneheatingwilldependonseveralfactors,includingthecorrectsizingandlocationof
thezeroclearancewoodinbuilt,thesize,layoutandageofyourhomeandyourclimatezone.Three‐season
vacationhomescanusuallybeheatedwithsmallerzeroclearancewoodinbuiltsthanhousesthatare
heatedallwinter.

2.3 TheBenefitsofLowEmissionsandHighEfficiency
ThelowsmokeemissionsproducedbythespecialfeaturesinsidetheEcoMaxxDecofireboxmeanthatyour
householdwillreleaseupto90percentlesssmokeintotheoutsideenvironmentthanifyouusedanolder
conventionalstove.Butthereismoretotheemissioncontroltechnologiesthanprotectingthe
environment.
Thesmokereleasedfromwoodwhenitisheatedcontainsabouthalfoftheenergycontentofthefuel.By
burningthewoodcompletely,yourzeroclearancewoodinbuiltreleasesalltheheatenergyfromthewood
insteadofwastingitassmokeupthechimney.Also,thefeaturesinsidethefireboxallowyoutoreducethe
airsupplytocontrolheatoutput,whilemaintainingcleanandefficientflamingcombustion,whichboosts
theefficientdeliveryofheattoyourhome.
Theemissioncontrolandadvancedcombustionfeaturesofyourzeroclearancewoodinbuiltcanonlywork
properlyifyourfuelisinthecorrectmoisturecontentrangeof15to20percent.SeeSection3:Fuelofthis
manualforsuggestionsonpreparingfuelwoodandjudgingitsmoisture.
2.4 TheEcoMaxxWoodheating’sCommitmenttoYouandtheEnvironment
TheEcoMaxxWoodheatingteamiscommittedtoprotectingtheenvironment,sowedoeverythingwecan
touseonlymaterialsinourproductsthatwillhavenolastingnegativeimpactontheenvironment.
2.4.1 WhatisYourNewZeroclearancewoodinbuiltMadeOf?
Thebodyofyourzeroclearancewoodinbuilt,whichismostofitsweight,iscarbonsteel.Shoulditever
becomenecessarymanyyearsinthefuture,almosttheentirezeroclearancewoodinbuiltcanberecycled
intonewproducts,thuseliminatingtheneedtominenewmaterials.
Thepaintcoatingonyourzeroclearancewoodinbuiltisverythin.ItsVOCcontent(VolatileOrganic
Compounds)isverylow.VOCscanberesponsibleforsmog,soallthepaintusedduringthemanufacturing
processmeetsthelatestairqualityrequirementsregardingVOCreductionorelimination.
Theairtubesarestainlesssteel,whichcanalsoberecycled.
Thebaffleismadeofsteel.Shoulditeverbecomenecessary,itcanberecycledintonewproducts.
Firebrickismainlycomposedofsilicondioxide,alsoknownassilica,anearthderivedproduct.Itismost
commonlyfoundinnatureintheformofsandandclay.Disposalatalandfillisrecommended.
Thedoorandglassgasketsarefibreglasswhichisspunfrommeltedsand.Blackgasketshavebeendipped
intoasolvent‐freesolution.Disposalatalandfillisrecommended.
Thedoorglassisa5mmthickceramicmaterialthatcontainsnotoxicchemicals.Itismadeofnaturalraw
materialssuchassandandquartzthatarecombinedinsuchawaytoformahightemperatureglass.
Ceramicglasscannotberecycledinthesamewayasnormalglass,soitshouldnotbedisposedofwithyour
regularhouseholdproducts.Disposalatalandfillisrecommended.

MARKINGSONPACKAGING.
3.2 HowtoPrepareorBuyGoodFirewood
3.2.1 WhatisGoodFirewood?
Goodfirewoodhasbeencuttothecorrectlengthforthewoodfire,splittoarangeofsizesandstackedin
theopenuntilitsmoisturecontentisreducedto11to16percent.
3.2.2 TreeSpecies
Thetreespeciesthefirewoodisproducedfromislessimportantthanitsmoisturecontent.Themain
differenceinfirewoodfromvarioustreespeciesisthedensityofthewood.Hardwoodssuchasgums,
Manukaorironbarkaredenserthansoftwoods.Hardwoodwillproducelong‐lastingcoalbedscombinedto
moreheatandlongerburncycles.
Old,leakycastironwoodfireswouldn’tholdafireovernightunlesstheywerefedlargepiecesof
hardwood.Thatisnolongertrue.Youcansuccessfullyheatyourhomebyusinglesswoodandgivethe
forestabreakatthesametime.
3.2.3 LogLength
Logsshouldbecutabout25mmshorterthanthefireboxsotheyfitineasily.
Piecesthatareslightlytoolongmakeloadingthewoodfireverydifficult.The
mostcommonstandardlengthoffirewoodis400mm.
Thepiecesshouldbeaconsistentlength,withamaximumof25mmvariation
frompiecetopiece.


OPERATING&INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONSFORECOMAXXDECOZEROCLEARANCEWOODHEATER11
3.2.4 PieceSize
Firewooddriesmorequicklywhenitissplit.Largeunsplitroundscantakeyearstodryenoughtoburn.
Evenwhendried,unsplitlogsaredifficulttoignitebecausetheydon’thavethesharpedgeswherethe
flamesfirstcatch.Logsassmallas75mmshouldbesplittoencouragedrying.
 
Woodshouldbesplittoarangeofsizes,fromabout75mmto150mmincrosssection.Havingarangeof
sizesmakesstartingandrekindlingfiresmucheasier.Often,thefirewoodpurchasedfromcommercial
suppliersisnotsplitfinelyenoughforconvenientstoking.Itissometimesadvisabletoresplitthewood
beforestackingtodry.
3.2.5 HowtoDryFirewood
Firewoodthatisnotdryenoughtoburnisthecauseofmostcomplaintsaboutwoodfires.Thecomplaints

4.1 YourFirstFires
Twothingswillhappenasyouburnyourfirstfewfires;thepaintcuresandtheinternalcomponentsofthe
zeroclearancewoodinbuiltareconditioned.
Asthepaintcures,someofthechemicalsvaporize.Thevaporsarenotpoisonous,buttheydosmellbad.
Freshpaintfumescanalsocausefalsealarmsinsmokedetectors.So,whenyoufirstlightyourzero
clearancewoodinbuilt,bepreparedbyopeningdoorsand/orwindowstoventilatethehouse.Asyouburn
hotterandhotterfires,moreofthepaintedsurfacesreachthecuringtemperatureofthepaint.Thesmell
ofcuringpaintdoesnotdisappearuntilyouhaveburnedoneortwoveryhotfires.
Burnoneortwosmallfirestobeginthecuringandconditioningprocess.Thenbuildbiggerandhotterfires
untilthereisnolongeranypaintsmellfromthezeroclearancewoodinbuilt.Oncethepaintsmell

4.2.1 ConventionalFireStarting
Theconventionalwaytobuildawoodfireistobunchup5
to10sheetsofplainnewspaperandplacetheminthe

4.2.2 TheTopDownFire
Thetopdownfirestartingmethodsolvestwoproblemswiththeconventionalmethod:first,itdoesnot
collapseandsmotheritselfasitburns;andsecond,itisnotnecessarytobuildupthefiregraduallybecause
thefireboxisloadedbeforethefireislit.Atopdownfirecanprovideuptotwohoursofheatingormore.
Thetopdownmethodonlyworksproperlyifthewoodiswell‐seasoned.
Startbyplacingthreeorfourfull‐sizedsplitpiecesofdryfirewoodinthefirebox.Next,place4or5more
finelysplitpiecesoffirewood(2”to3”[50mmto75mm]india.)onthebaselogsatrightangles(logcabin
style).Nowplaceabout10piecesoffinelysplitkindlingonthesecondlayeratrightangles.
Thefireistoppedwithabout5sheetsofnewspaper.Youcanjustbunchthemupandstuffthemin
betweenthekindlingandtheundersideofthebaffle.Oryoucanmakenewspaperknotsbyrollingupsingle
sheetscornertocornerandtyingaknotinthem.Theadvantageofknotsisthattheydon’trolloffthefire
astheyburn.Lightthenewspaperandwatchasthefireburnsfromtoptobottom.
4.2.3 TwoParallelLogs
Placetwospitlogsinthefirebox.Placeafewsheetsoftwistednewspaperbetweenthelogs.Nowplace
somefinekindlingacrossthetwologsandsomelargerkindlingacrossthose,logcabinstyle.Lightthe

4.2.4 UsingFireStarters
Manypeopleliketousecommercialfirestartersinsteadofnewspaper.Someofthesestartersaremadeof

4.3 MaintainingWoodFires
4.3.1 GeneralAdvice
Woodheatingwithaspaceheaterisverydifferentthanotherformsofheating.Therewillbevariationsin
thetemperatureindifferentpartsofthehouseandtherewillbevariationsintemperaturethroughoutthe
dayandnight.Thisisnormal,andforexperiencedwoodburnerstheseareadvantagesofzoneheatingwith
wood.
Donotexpectsteadyheatoutputfromyourzeroclearancewoodinbuilt.Itisnormalforitssurface
temperaturetoriseafteranewloadofwoodisignitedandforitstemperaturetograduallydeclineasthe
fireprogresses.Thisrisingandfallingoftemperaturecanbematchedtoyourhouseholdroutines.For
example,theareatemperaturecanbecoolerwhenyouareactive,suchaswhendoinghouseworkor
cooking,anditcanbewarmerwhenyouareinactive,suchaswhenreadingorwatchingtelevision.
Woodburnsbestincycles.Acyclestartswhenanewloadofwoodisignitedbyhotcoalsandendswhen
thatloadhasbeenconsumeddowntoabedofcharcoalaboutthesamesizeasitwaswhenthewoodwas
loaded.Donotattempttoproduceasteadyheatoutputbyplacingasinglelogonthefireatregular
intervals.Alwaysplaceatleastthree,andpreferablymore,piecesonthefireatatimesothattheheat
radiatedfromonepiecehelpstoignitethepiecesnexttoit.Eachloadofwoodshouldprovideseveral
hoursofheating.Thesizeofeachloadcanbematchedtotheamountofheatneeded.
Whenyouburnincycles,yourarelyneedtoopenthezeroclearancewoodinbuilt’sloadingdoorwhilethe
woodisflaming.Thisisanadvantagebecausethereismorechancethatsmokewillleakfromthezero
clearancewoodinbuiltwhenthedoorisopenedasafullfireisburning.
IFYOUMUSTOPENTHEDOORWHILETHEFUELISFLAMING,OPENTHEAIRCONTROLFULLYFORAFEW
MINUTES,THENUNLATCHANDOPENTHEDOORSLOWLY.
4.3.2 AshRemoval
Ashshouldberemovedfromthefireboxeverytwoorthreedaysoffulltimeheating.Donotlettheash
buildupinthefireboxbecauseitwillinterferewithproperfiremanagement.Ashshouldbeclearedor
removedwhenbuildupreachesthelevelofthedooropening.
Thebesttimetoremoveashisafteranovernightfirewhenthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltisrelatively
cool,butthereisstillsomechimneydrafttodrawtheashdustintothezeroclearancewoodinbuiltand
preventitfromcomingintotheroom.
Afterasheshavebeenremovedfromthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltandplacedinatightlycoveredmetal
container,theyshouldbetakenoutsideimmediately.Theclosedcontainerofashesshouldbeplacedona
non‐combustiblefloororonthegroundwellawayfromallcombustiblematerialspendingfinaldisposal.
Ashesnormallycontainsomelivecharcoalthatcanstayhotforseveraldays.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.

4.3.3 RakingCharcoal
Rekindlethefirewhenyounoticethattheroomtemperaturehasfallen.Youwillfindmostoftheremaining
charcoalatthebackofthefirebox,furthestfromthedoor.Rakethesecoalstowardsthedoorbefore
loading.Therearetworeasonsforthisrakingofthecoals.First,itconcentratesthemnearwheremostof
thecombustionairentersthefireboxandwheretheycanignitethenewloadquickly,andsecond,the
charcoalwillnotbesmotheredbythenewloadofwood.Ifyouweretosimplyspreadthecharcoalout,the
newloadwillsmoulderforalongtimebeforeigniting.

Removeashfirst,andthenrakecharcoaltowardsthefrontofthefireboxbeforeloadingsothatitwillignite
thenewload.
4.3.4 FiringEachNewLoadHot
Placethenewloadofwoodonandbehindthecharcoal,andnottooclosetotheglass.Closethedoorand
opentheaircontrolfully.Leavetheaircontrolfullyopenuntilthefireboxisfullofflames,thewoodhas
charredtoblackanditsedgesareglowingred.Firingeachloadofwoodhotaccomplishesafewthings:
•drivesthesurfacemoisturefromthewood,
•createsalayerofcharonthewood,whichslowsdownitsreleaseofsmoke,
•heatsthefireboxcomponentssotheyreflectheatbacktothefire,and
•heatsthechimneysoitcanproducestrong,steadydraftfortherestofthecycle.
Althoughitisimportanttofireeachnewloadhottoprepareforacleanburn,donotallowthefiretoburn
atfullintensityformorethanafewminutes.
DONOTLEAVETHEZEROCLEARANCEWOODINBUILTUNATTENDEDWHILEANEWLOADISBEINGFIRED
HOT.
DONOTOVERFIRE.
Whenyouburnanewloadofwoodhottoheatupthewood,thezeroclearancewoodinbuiltandthe
chimney,theresultwillbeasurgeofheatfromthezeroclearancewoodinbuilt.Thisheatsurgeiswelcome
whentheroomtemperatureisalittlelowerthandesirable,butnotwelcomeifthespaceisalreadywarm.
Therefore,alloweachloadofwoodtoburndownsothatthespacebeginstocooloffalittlebeforeloading.
Lettingthespacecoolbeforeloadingisoneofthesecretstocleanburningandeffectivezoneheating.
4.3.5 TurningDowntheAirSupply
Oncethefirewood,fireboxandchimneyarehot,youcanbegintoreducetheairsupplyforasteadyburn.
Asyoureducetheairsupplytothefire,twoimportantthingshappen.First,thefiringrateslowsdownto
spreadtheheatenergyinthefueloveralongerperiodoftime.Second,theflowrateofexhaustthrough
thezeroclearancewoodinbuiltandfluepipeslowsdown,whichgivesmoretimeforthetransferofheat


16OPERATING&INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONSFORECOMAXXDECOZEROCLEARANCEWOODHEATER
fromtheexhaust.Youwillnoticethatasyoureducetheairsetting,theflamesslowdown.Thisisyour
indicationthatthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltisburningatitspeakefficiency.
Iftheflamesgetsmallandalmostdisappearwhen
youturndowntheair,youhaveturneddownthe
airtooearly,oryourfirewoodiswetterthanit
shouldbe.Withgoodfuelandcorrectaircontrol
use,theflamesshouldslowdown,butshouldstay
largeandsteady,evenastheairsupplyisreduced.
4.3.6 BuildingDifferentFiresforDifferentNeeds
Usingtheaircontrolisnottheonlywaytomatchthezeroclearancewoodinbuilt’sheatoutputtotheheat
demand.YourhousewillneedfarlessheatinJanuarythaninMaytobekeptatacomfortabletemperature.
Ifyoufillthefireboxfullinfallweather,youwilleitheroverheatthespaceorturnthezeroclearancewood
inbuiltdownsomuchthatthefirewillbesmokyandinefficient.Herearesomesuggestionsforbuilding
firestomatchdifferentheatdemand.
4.3.6.1 SmallFirestoTaketheChillOfftheHouse
Tobuildasmallfirethatwillproducealowheatoutput,usesmallpiecesoffirewoodandloadthem
crisscrossinthefirebox.Thepiecesshouldbeonly76mmto102mmindiameter.Afterrakingthecoals,
youcanlaytwopiecesparalleltoeachothercornertocornerinthefireboxandlaytwomoreacrossthem
intheotherdirection.Opentheaircontrolfullyandonlyreducetheairafterthewoodisfullyflaming.This
kindoffireisgoodformildweatherwhenyouarearoundtotendthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltand
shouldprovideenoughheatforfourhoursormore.Smallfireslikethisareagoodtimetousesofterwood
speciessotherewillbelesschanceofoverheatingthehouse.
4.3.6.2 LongLastingLowOutputFires
Sometimesyouwillwanttobuildafiretolastuptoeighthours,butdon’tneedintenseheat.Inthiscase
usesoftwoodspeciesandplacethelogscompactlyinthefireboxsothepiecesarepackedtightlytogether.
Youwillneedtofiretheloadhotforlongenoughtofullycharthelogsurfacesbeforeyoucanturntheair
down.Makesurethefireisflamingbrightlybeforeleavingthefiretoburn.
4.3.6.3 HighOutputFiresforColdWeather
Whentheheatdemandishighduringcoldweather,you’llneedafirethatburnssteadilyandbrightly.This
isthetimetouselargerpiecesofhardwoodfuelifyouhaveit.Putthebiggestpiecesatthebackofthe
fireboxandplacetherestofthepiecescompactly.Adenselybuiltfirelikethiswillproducethelongestburn
yourzeroclearancewoodinbuiltiscapableof.
Youwillneedtobecautiouswhenbuildingfireslikethisbecauseiftheairisturneddowntoomuch,thefire
couldsmoulder.Makesurethewoodisflamingbrightlybeforeleavingthefiretoburn.

4.3.6.4 MaximumBurnCycleTimes
Theburncycletimeistheperiodbetweenloadingwoodonacoalbedandtheconsumptionofthatwood
backtoacoalbedofthesamesize.Theflamingphaseofthefirelastsforroughlythefirsthalfoftheburn
cycleandthesecondhalfisthecoalbedphaseduringwhichthereislittleornoflame.Thelengthofburn
youcanexpectfromyourzeroclearancewoodinbuilt,includingboththeflamingandcoalbedphases,will
beaffectedbyanumberofthings,suchas:
•fireboxsize,
•theamountofwoodloaded,
•thespeciesofwoodyouburn,
•thewoodmoisturecontent,
•thesizeofthespacetobeheated,
•theclimatezoneyoulivein,and
•thetimeofyear.
Thetablebelowprovidesaverygeneralindicationofthemaximumburncycletimesyouarelikelyto
experience,basedonfireboxvolume.
FIREBOXVOLUME MAXIMUM BURNTIME
<0.042cubicmeter 3to5hours

0.071m3to0.085m38to9hours
>0.085m39to10hours
Longburntimesarenotnecessarilyanindicationofefficientzeroclearancewoodinbuiltoperation.When
youarehomeduringthedayandabletotendthefire,itispreferabletobuildasmallerfirethatmight
providethreeorfourhoursofheatingthantofullyloadthefireboxforamuchlongerburn.Shorterburn
cyclesmakeiteasiertomatchtheheatoutputofthezeroclearancewoodinbuilttotheheatdemandof
thespace.
4.3.6.5 Howtoplacethelogs
Infireboxesthatareroughlysquare,woodcanbeloadedsothatlookingthroughtheglassdooryouseethe
endsofthelogs(north‐south)orthesidesofthelogs(east‐west).
East‐westloadsthatarebuiltcompactlybreakdownslowlywhenheated,buttheamountofwoodyoucan
loadislimitedbecauseifyouputintoomanypieces,onemayfallagainsttheglass.East‐westloadsare
excellentforlong,lowoutputfiresforrelativelymildweather.
North‐southloadsbreakdownmorequickly,butmuchmorewoodcanbeloadedatatime.Thismakes
north‐southloadinggoodforhighoutput,longlastingfiresforcoldweather.
5MAINTAININGYOURWOODHEATINGSYSTEM
5.1 ZeroclearancewoodinbuiltMaintenance
Yournewzeroclearancewoodinbuiltwillgivemanyyearsofreliableserviceifyouuseandmaintainit
correctly.Someoftheinternalcomponentsofthefirebox,suchasfirebricks,bafflesandairtubes,willwear
overtimeunderintenseheat.Youshouldalwaysreplacedefectivepartswithoriginalparts(seeAppendix
5:ExplodedDiagramandPartsList).Firingeachloadhottobeginacycleasdescribedabovewillnotcause
prematuredeteriorationofthezeroclearancewoodinbuilt.However,lettingthezeroclearancewood

whenthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltishot.
Inspringandfallwhenthezeroclearancewoodinbuiltisrunatlowertemperatures,youmayseesome
lightbrownstainsforming,especiallyatthelowercornersoftheglass.Thisindicatesthatthefirehasbeen
smokyandsomeofthesmokehascondensedontheglass.Whentheweatherismild,youmayfindthat
lettingthefiregooutisbetterthantryingtomaintainacontinuousfire.Usethetechniquedescribedabove
forbuildingafiretotakethechilloffthehouse.
Ifyoudogetbrownstainsontheglassyoucanremovethemwithspecialcleanersforwoodheaterglass
doors.Donotuseabrasivestocleanyourzeroclearancewoodinbuilt’sdoorglass.
Thedepositsthatformontheglassarethebestindicationofthequalityofyourfuelandhowwellyouare
doinginoperatingthezeroclearancewoodinbuilt.Yourgoalshouldbeclearglasswithnobrownstains.If
youcontinuetoseebrownstainsontheglass,somethingaboutyourfuelandoperatingprocedureneedsto
bechanged.Stainsontheglassindicateincompletecombustionofthewood,whichalsomeansmore
smokeemissionsandfasterformationofcreosoteinthechimney.
Ifyouseebrownstreakscomingfromtheedgeoftheglass,itistimetoreplacethegasketaroundtheglass.
