 NOTE: When burning any unit or appliance that combusts fuel for heat, such as coal, oil,

wood or natural and (L.P.) liquid petroleum gas. We highly recommend the use of

smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in your home.

 Incase of room air starvation, example; if there are exhaust fans running in the house for

kitchen, bathrooms, ect., enough negative pressure could be created in the house to cause
back drafting of smoke from the stove, an outside air kit may have to be used. For outside
air installation see (Page 15).

CAUTION

DO NOT USE MORE THAN ONE STOVE TO A CHIMNEY. DO NOT USE A FLUE
INTENDED FOR A GAS APPLIANCE.

THAT IS TOO SMALL OR LARGE IN DIAMETER, OR TOO SHORT, CAN CAUSE
YOUR STOVE TO SPILL SMOKE WHEN DOOR IS OPENED.

SECTION I

INTRODUCTION

Your new MODEL 21 ELITE is a non-catalytic unit designed to meet the most stringent
emissions standards without the use of a catalytic combustor. This effect is achieved through
the use of secondary air which is mixed with primary air in the units firebox.

For peak performance, we suggest the use of hard seasoned natural wood, loading wood from
front to rear.

NOTE: Soft woods such as pine, create more creosote, clogging of chimney and produce a less efficient
burn performance.

You should not burn trash or garbage, artificial or paper logs, gift wrapping, treated or painted
wood or any type of coal.

DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START FIRE.
DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS.

The primary air, which is controlled by the user, burns the wood. Secondary air is admitted into
the firebox through secondary air tubes at the top of the firebox. This secondary air burns the
impurities in the smoke released from the initial wood burning. The temperature necessary for
this combustion is maintained through the firebrick refractory. If any more technical
information is necessary, contact your local dealer.

SECTION II

INSTALLATION AND CLEARANCES

Select an installation location that will give the best airflow from the front of the heater to

the remainder of the home

PREPARING THE STOVE FOR INSTALLATION

1. Inspect unit for any obvious physical damage.

2. Plug power cord into a 115V AC outlet to test motor and fan. Do not run cord under unit or
in high traffic areas.

3. Check primary air draft control to ensure that it slides freely.

4. Remove any items from within firebox.

Chimney

This model is designed for connection to any listed 2100º UL103 HT chimneys and parts.
This room heater must be converted to a chimney complying with the requirements for Type
HT chimneys in the Standard for chimneys, Factory-Built, Residential, Type and
Building Heating Appliance, UL 103, or liner.

Floor Protection:

Floor protection must be 3/8” minimum thickness non-combustible material or equivalent.

How to use alternate materials and how to calculate equivalent thickness:

An easy means of determining if a proposed alternate floor protector meets requirements listed
in the appliance manual is to follow this procedure:

1. Convert specification to R-value:
R-value is given—no conversion is needed.
K-factor is given with a required thickness (T) in inches:
C-factor is given: R=1/C

2. Determine the R-value of the proposed alternate floor protector.
Use the formula in step (1) to convert values not expressed as “R”
For multiple layers, add R-values of each layer to determine the overall R-value.

3. If the overall R-value of the system is grater than the R-value of the specified floor protec­tor, the alternate is acceptable.

Example:

The specified floor protector should be 3/4” thick material with a K-factor of 0.84.
The proposed alternate is 4” brick with a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8” mineral board with a

K-factor of 0.29.
Step (a): Use formula above to convert specification to R-value. R= 1/K x T = 1/0.84 x .75 =

0.893

Step (b): Calculate R of proposed system. 4” brick of C=1.25, therefore Rbrick = 1/C = 1/1.25

=0.80 1/8” mineral board of K = 0.29, therefore Rmin.bd. =1/029 x0.125 = 0.431

Step (c): Compare proposed system R of 1.231 to specified R of 0.893. Since proposed

system R is greater than required , the system is acceptable.

FINAL CHECK

1. Recheck specified clearances.

2. Remove all foreign material from firebox area.

3. Open primary air draft.

4. Plug power cord into a 115V AC outlet.

5. Place crumpled pieces of newspaper in the stove. Light it and close door. Ensure that stove
draws properly through primary draft.

6. Check for smoke leaks around door.

Open door and check for smoke escaping from front of stove. Smoking usually indicates a
defective or poorly positioned chimney. Some chimneys with a marginal draft can be
preheated by lighting newspaper and holding it near the open damper with a poker or
fire tong. Once chimney heats up, a proper draft can usually be obtained.

If a thorough review of the Troubleshooting Guide manual does not reveal problem, contact
your dealer for assistance.

The unit is painted with a specially formulated high temperature paint that cures during
the first two or three firings. You may notice a slight smoking effect and an odor of
burning pain when you build the first fires. This is normal and is not a cause for
alarm. In some cases, these fumes will activate a smoke alarm. Opening a window near
the unit will allow these fumes to escape. DO NOT build a large, roaring fire until this
curing is complete or the heater finish may be damaged.

Floor Protection:

Floor protection must be 3/8” minimum thickness non-combustible material or equivalent.

How to use alternate materials and how to calculate equivalent thickness

An easy means of determining if a proposed alternate floor protector meets requirements listed
in the appliance manual is to follow this procedure:

1. Convert specification to R-value:

R-value is given—no conversion is needed.
K-factor is given with a required thickness (T) in inches:
C-factor is given: R=1/C

2. Determine the R-value of the proposed alternate floor protector.

Use the formula in step (1) to convert values not expressed as “R”
For multiple layers, add R-values of each layer to determine the overall R-value.

3. If the overall R-value of the system is grater than the R-value of the specified floor protec-

tor, the alternate is acceptable.

Example:

The specified floor protector should be 3/4” thick material with a K-factor of 0.84.
The proposed alternate is 4” brick with a C-factor of 1.25 over 1/8” mineral board with a

K-factor of 0.29.
Step (a): Use formula above to convert specification to R-value. R= 1/K x T = 1/0.84 x .75 =

0.893

Step (b): Calculate R of proposed system. 4” brick of C=1.25, therefore Rbrick = 1/C = 1/1.25

=0.80 1/8” mineral board of K = 0.29, therefore Rmin.bd. =1/029 x0.125 = 0.431

Step (c): Compare proposed system R of 1.231 to specified R of 0.893. Since proposed

system R is greater than required , the system is acceptable.

FINAL CHECK

1. Recheck specified clearances.

2. Remove all foreign material from firebox area.

3. Open primary air draft.

4. Plug the power cord into a 115V AC outlet.

5. Place crumpled pieces of newspaper in stove. Light it and close door. Ensure that
stove draws properly through primary draft.

6. Check for smoke leaks around door.

CAUTION

Open door and check for smoke escaping from the front of stove. Smoking usually
indicates a defective or poorly positioned chimney. Some chimneys with a marginal draft
can be preheated by lighting newspaper and holding it near open damper with a poker or
fire tong. Once chimney heats up, a proper draft can usually be obtained.

If a thorough review of Troubleshooting Guide in the manual does not reveal problem, contact
your dealer for assistance.

The unit is painted with a specially formulated high temperature paint that cures during
first two or three firings. You may notice a slight smoking effect and an odor of burning
paint when you build first fires. This is normal and is not a cause for alarm. In some
cases, these fumes will activate a smoke alarm. Opening a window near unit will allow
these fumes to escape. DO NOT build a large, roaring fire until this curing is complete or
heater finish may be damaged.

CAUTION

SECTION IV

OPERATION

This section of manual is to help you get maximum efficiency and maximum smoke
(particulate) reduction from your heater. If you should experience any difficulty or
have any questions concerning your heater, contact your dealer for assistance. The manufacturer
recommends that for maximum performance burn dried natural seasoned hard wood.
Build a fire for maximum efficiency. These models burn wood and extract heat so efficiently,
a large fire is not necessary. A large fire not only wastes energy, it usually results in home being
too warm for comfort.

BUILDING A FIRE

1. Open door.

2. Primary air control. The Primary Control Rod is located in front under the hearth.

FULL OPEN, push the primary control rod all the way in.

3/4 OPEN, pull 7/16”

3. Twist two pieces of non-colored newspaper into a roll and place them on the floor of

firebox.

4. These models are not designed for use of grates, andirons or other methods of supporting

fuel.

NOTE: Do not use grate or elevate fire. Build wood fire directly on inner bottom of fire box.

5. Lay several pieces of dry kindling on top of newspaper.

6. Place three or four small pieces of firewood, 2-3" in diameter, on top of kindling.

7. Light newspaper in front. Close and latch door. Don't leave fire unattended at this point.
The draft system of heater should start quickly. It may be necessary to preheat chimney to
get draft started. To do this, open door and add newspaper to top backside of wood. Light or
let paper ignite and allow to burn while holding door slightly cracked. Once draft has
started, close and lock door. You are over heating unit if chimney and or connector glows
red.

8. After embers and a coal bed have been established, load heater with dried natural seasoned
hard wood.

NOTE: THE FUELING DOOR MUST REMAIN CLOSED DURING OPERATION.
NOTE: If blower is being used on the Model 21 Elite, your stove is equipped with a automatic

thermostat. When stove gets hot enough, thermostat will activate room air blower. Set
fan speed using rheostat according to desired heat output. Rheostat is located on back
left side facing unit.

NOTE: When refueling or removing ashes turn “OFF” room air blower. Be sure to turn room

air blower back on when finished.

NOTE: Do not run power cord underneath heater or in walk way or heavy traffic areas.

DOOR GASKET REPLACEMENT (COLD HEATER)

To replace deteriorated gaskets, following steps must be taken to ensure proper installation of
gaskets.

1. Obtain proper gaskets and silicone glue from your local dealer.

2. Using pliers, remove any worn and deteriorated gaskets.

3. Using a scraper, wire brush and sandpaper or steel wool, clean glue and gasket residue from
door frame.

4. Measure and cut gaskets to length. Care should be taken not to stretch gaskets. What you
want is a full and loose gasket weave after attachment to framing.

5. Obtain silicone glue and run a 3/16” bead inside door frame.

6. Obtain gasket (s) and place in gasket channel areas starting at lower right corner, See below.
Use a technique which assures that gasket is applied in a loose like manner. DO NOT
STRETCH GASKETS.

7. After gasket (s) are applied to glue, use your finger and go over all gasket gently pressing
gasket to the channel. Use same pressure against gasket so that final result is an evenly
applied gasket.

8. Leave door open and allow at least two (2) hours for glue to dry.

9. Once gaskets are checked, heater is ready for use.

10. This should be done annually. Allowing gaskets to deteriorate can cause over-firing and
shorten burn time.

SECTION VI

WOOD HEATER SAFETY

Certain safety hazards are inherent in any wood heater installation. You should be aware of
these so that a safe and proper installation can be made.

1. FAULTY FLUE: An older flue should be thoroughly checked to be sure there are no holes
or weak spots which could allow sparks or hot gases to escape.

2. HEAT CONDUCTION: Placing combustible materials too close to a heater or chimney can
be a fire hazard.

By keeping these particular hazards in mind as you install and use your room heater you can
ensure a safe, reliable installation.

When burning wood the chimney and chimney connector should be inspected once every two
months during the heating season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. Any build­up of soot should be removed to prevent risk of a chimney fire. To remove chimney or chimney
connector: remove screws or fasteners then remove pipe and clean with steel brush. Replace
chimney or chimney connector and replace screws and/or fasteners.

NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE TYPE LANTERN FUEL KEROSENE,
CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR "FRESHEN
UP" A FIRE IN THE HEATER. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM
STOVE WHEN IT IS IN USE. ALL FLUIDS OF THIS TYPE GIVE OFF
VOLATILE FUMES AND CAN AND WILL EXPLODE! DON'T TAKE A CHANCE
WITH SAFETY OF YOUR HOME AND FAMILY.

CAUTION: Never remove ashes from heater with blower running.
DISPOSAL OF ASHES: Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid.

The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground,
well away from all combustible materials pending final disposal. If 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.

CREOSOTE—FORMATION AND NEED FOR REMOVAL: When wood is burned
slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form
creosote.The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning
fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes
an extremely hot fire.
