Safety and Maintenance

Burn only dry, well seasoned wood. The denser or heavier the wood when dry, the

greater its heat value. This is why hardwoods are generally preferred. Green or wet wood

should not be used, as it will reduce heat output, as well as contributing signifi cantly to

creosote buildup.

2. Remove ashes frequently and only when the stove is cold. Too much ash could cause

embers to roll out the door when it is opened. This may pose a fi re hazard. For proper

operation, maintain a 1" minimum ash base.

3. If glass becomes darkened from slow burning or poor wood, it can readily be cleaned with

fi replace glass cleaner when stove is cold. Never scrape with an object or use abrasive

cleaners that might scratch the glass. The type and amount of deposit on the glass is

a good indication of the fl ue pipe and chimney buildup. A light brown dusty deposit that

is easily wiped off usually indicates good combustion and dry, well-seasoned wood,

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 will also create heavy deposit buildup in the chimney.

4. DOOR GASKETS - The gasket used by Pacifi c Energy (5/16" medium density fi 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 instructions included in the door gasket kit obtainable from your

nearest Pacifi c Energy dealer.

5. DOOR GLASS - Do not slam loading door or otherwise impact glass. When closing door,

make sure that no logs protrude 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 ceramic glass only. Do not substitute with any other type.

GLASS SIZE – 17.25" x 11.375" x 5mm

To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws and remove 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.

6. 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.

If the heater requires cleaning, use mild soap and water only. Use of abrasive cleaners

will void warranty.

8. Establish a routine for fuelling and fi ring the heater. Check daily for creosote buildup until

experience shows how often you need to clean the chimney to be safe.

9. Be aware that the hotter the fi 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.

10. 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. Study

the section on chimney fi res and the importance of following the steps outlined "In Case

of Chimney Fire".
