ENW415-1468 / A / 09.30.167Your appliance has been specifically designed to meet the 2015 U.S.A. EPA particulate emission standards andhas been extensively tested in Canadian and American laboratories. This system is the most efficient, simple andtrouble free we know and works as follows:The chimney vent system used on your wood burning appliance should be designed with the least amount ofrestriction possible to enable the exhaust products to easily flow through it. Chimney vent systems that are tooshort or too long can also have an adverse affect on the flow of exhaust through it. The wood burning applianceand chimney vent system also require a sufficient supply of combustion air not only to support the combustion inthe combustion chamber but to replace the exhaust leaving it so it can flow freely up through the vent system andout into the atmosphere. It is the correct balance of combustion air and the chimney vent system that will ensurethe appliance provides you with its optimum performance.Combustion air enters through two holes in the bottomwhich can be adjusted by a single air control. Air fromthe front hole goes up on either side of the door intoa preheating airwash located across the top and thendown the window to feed the fire and also to ensure thatthe glass remains clean. Air from this hole also feedsdirectly into the combustion chamber at hearth level.Secondary air from the rear hole travels up the back inthe secondary air housing to the manifold located at thetop and shoots out laterally to oxidize the gases belowthe smoke exit.The combustion chamber is lined with high temperaturefirebrick on both sides, the back and across the bottom,with a layer of fibre baffles at the top to maintain ahigh temperature in the combustion chamber so thatgases mixing with the preheated air from the secondaryair manifold tube are easily ignited and burned. Theappliance sides and back are shielded to direct the heatupwards and forwards into the room.Be sure to provide sufficient combustion air. There are many other appliances in your home competing for air suchas: a kitchen range hood, forced air heating devices or a bathroom exhaust fan.Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and to be expected.After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the appliancemay emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles on the firebox burning off. Open a windowto sufficiently ventilate the room.CALIFORNIA PROP 65 WARNING:Use of this product may produce smoke which containschemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer,birth defects, or other reproductive harm.If optional ash drawer is purchased, ensure that the ashdump door is tightly closed, allow the door to snap shutdislodging anything (ashes or pieces of coal) that may bestuck in the opening.If outside air is utilized, you should never experience a shortage of combustion air. If you choose not to utilizeoutside air and experience draft or smoking problems, you may need to open a door, a window or otherwiseprovide some method of supplying combustion air to the appliance.HOT SECONDARY AIRFIBRE BRICKSREFRACTORY2 SIDES, BACK& BOTTOMSECONDARY AIRPRIMARY AIRFLUE GLASSCERAMICGLASSAIR CONTROLCOMBUSTION AIRINTAKEOPEN CLOSED2.4 GENERAL INFORMATIONDO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITHOUT THE PEDESTAL INSTALLED.!
