manual abstract


This is a naturally clean portion of the burn. The coals burn with hot blue flames. It is very important to reload your stove while enough lively hot coals remain in order to provide the amount of heat needed to dry and rekindle the next load of wood. It is best to open the air controls for a short while before reloading. This livens up the coalbed. Open door slowly so that ash or smoke does not exit stove through opening. You should also break up any large chunks and distribute the coals so that the new wood is laid on hot coals. Air quality is important to all of us, and if we choose to use wood to heat our homes we should do so responsibly. To do this we need to learn to burn our stoves in the cleanest way possible. Doing this will allow us to continue using our wood stoves for many years to come. AIR CONTROLS START-UP AIR SYSTEM The combustion air enters at the rear of the firebox through the rear air tubes. This air supply is controlled by the Startup Air Control. For more air push control in, for less air pull control out. PRIMARY AIR SYSTEM The primary air enters below the ash catcher and is directed to the upper front of the firebox, near the top of the glass door and to the lower front of firebox. This preheated air supplies the necessary fresh oxygen to mix with the unburned gases, helping to create secondary, tertiary and quaternary combustions. This air is regulated by the Primary Air Slide Control. For more primary air slide control left, for less air, slide control to the right.
