CAUTION

[

If you have any doubt concerning your ability to complete your installation in a professional-like
manner after reading these instructions, you should obtain the services of an installer who is versed in
all aspects as to the correct and safe installation. Do not use temporary, makeshift compromises
during installation.

BEFORE INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE

1. HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE

AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS.

2. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS.

3. Check with the building inspector’s office for compliance with local codes; a permit may be

required.

4. This appliance requires a masonry or prefabricated chimney listed to ULC S629 (Canada) and

UL103HT (U.S.) sized correctly.

5. A 6” diameter flue is required for proper performance.

6. Always connect this unit to a chimney and NEVER vent to another room or inside a building.

7. DO NOT connect to any duct work to which another appliance is connected, such as a furnace.

8. DO NOT connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance.

9. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE.

10. The connector pipe and chimney should be inspected periodically and cleaned if necessary.

11. Remember the clearance distances when you place furniture or other objects within the area. DO

NOT store wood, flammable liquids or other combustible materials too close to the unit.

12. Contact your local fire authority for information on how to handle a chimney fire. Have a clearly

understood plan to handle a chimney fire. In the event of a chimney fire, turn air control to a
closed position and CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

13. DO NOT tamper with the combustion air control beyond normal adjustment.

14. Once the required draw is obtained, operate only with doors closed; open doors slowly when re-

fueling (this will reduce or eliminate smoke from entering the room).

15. Visit our web site at www.englanderstoves.com for helpful information, frequently asked

questions, parts/accessory orders and more. Customer Service: [phone].

Note on Outside Air Hookup: You can use an outside air hookup with this stove. We highly recommend it for homes
built since the more air-tight construction standards went into effect. This involves connecting a metal pipe (usually
three inches (3”) in diameter - check your stove - and the pipe can be flex or rigid) from the air inlet pipe located on the
bottom rear of the stove through your floor or wall. The outside en d of this pipe should be covered in some manner (i.e.
with a screen) to keep it clear of foreign matter. Be sure to keep it above the snowd rift line and clear of leaves an d other
debris. It is necessary to use this hookup if installing in a mobile home or double-wide.
A kit is available from England’s Stove Works, Inc. designed for connecting this unit to outside combustion air.

WHY THE CORRECT FLUE SIZE IS IMPORTANT: 6”

“Draft” is the force that moves air from the appliance up through the chimney. The amount of draft in
your chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions, and other
factors. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. An uncontrolled burn or
a glowing red part or chimney connector can indicate excessive draft. Inadequate draft may cause
back puffing into the room and “plugging” of the chimney and/or cause the appliance to leak smoke
into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints.

Today’s solid fuel appliances are much more efficient than in the past. The units are designed to give
you controlled combustion, as well as maximum heat transfer, using less fuel to do so.

The design of this heater is such that the exhaust "smoke" is now at lower temperatures than
in the past, requiring proper chimney size to provide adequate draft. If your chimney is too
large, the heater will have a difficult time raising the temperature of the flue enough to provide
adequate draft, which can cause a "smoke back," poor burn, or both

Should you experience such problems, call in a local chimney expert.

With the door closed, the rate of burning is regulated by the amount of air allowed to enter the unit
through the air control. With experience, you will be able to set the control for heat and burning time
desired.

Attempts to achieve higher output rates that exceed heater design specifications can result in
permanent damage to the heater. The recommended wood load is level with the top of the firebricks.
Overloading may prevent sufficient air entering the heater to properly fuel the fire.

Do not tamper with the combustion air control beyond the normal adjustment capacity.
Operate this heater only with the door closed.

ALWAYS PROVIDE A SOURCE OF FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM WHERE THE UNIT IS
INSTALLED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN AIR STARVATION OF OTHER FUEL
BURNING APPLIANCES AND THE POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF HAZARDOUS
CONDITIONS.

THIS HEATER IS EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. SERIOUS BURNS CAN RE SUL T
FROM CONTACT. CAUTION SHOULD BE OBSERVED, ESPECIALLY WHEN CHILDREN ARE
PRESENT.

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING UNIT.

OPTIONAL BLOWER MOTOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:

This unit is set up for installation of an optional 2-speed blower motor. The fan speed should be
run on “Low” when the unit is operating at lower burn settings, and set to “High” for high burns.
See Illustration 3 (later in this manual) for installation location of your optional blower. Fasten
blower motor to rear heat shield with the four screws that are already provided on your stove. When
routing the power cord, be sure that the cord does not come into contact with any hot surface.

OPTIONAL BLOWER: MODEL AC-16

120 VOLTS, 60Hz, 0.75 AMPS, 2900 RPM

.

The optional heat circulation blower on this stove requires periodic lubrication; this lubrication should be performed no
less than every three months of normal operation. To properly lubricate the blower, use an eye dropper or similar
dispensing device to drip 5-7 droplets of SAE 20 oil into the oil port on the side of the blower motor.

FLUE SYSTEM

1. Existing Flue System

If you have chosen a freestanding unit, this stove is designed to connect to an existing flue system,
such as masonry or a pre-manufactured Class A flue system. If you have a masonry flue system, the
inner liner should be inspected carefully for cracks; if there is no liner in your chimney, we recommend
you install a steel liner or have one installed. If you have an existing pre-manufactured system the
inner liner should be inspected for warping or buckling. Either type chimney system should be
thoroughly cleaned before installing your new stove. We strongly recommend you have a qualified
chimney sweep clean and inspect your entire system, as the sweep can spot problems you might
overlook. The sweep in most cases can make any necessary repairs or recommend a qualified
person to do so. It is not permissible to connect this unit to a chimney that is servicing another

unit.

2. Flue Size

The proper flue size is determined by measuring the inside diameter of the flue collar on the unit.
This stove is equipped with a six inch (6”) TOP EXHAUST FLUE COLLAR. Therefore, the connector
pipe should be six inches (6”) and never less in diameter than the collar on the stove. Your unit may
require an adapter (AC-1677) which will reduce the 6” connector pipe by
accommodate pipe variation from different manufacturers and maintain a good seal. The area of the
chimney liner must also be equal to or greater than the area of the flue collar on the stove. If the area
of the flue is greater than the collar, it should never be more than two and

The black connector pipe should be 24 gauge steel and a minimum of thirteen inches (13.0”) from
a combustible wall and eighteen inches (18.0”) from ceiling.

3. Installation of a New Flue System

Note: Flue systems and flue pipe are not furnished with the unit.

Masonry Flue: In the event that you plan to install or have a system installed, there are several
approaches that you can take. In the middle and late seventies masonry flue systems became very
popular, and today this type system is satisfactory. If you are considering a masonry system, you
should consult with your local building officials for the proper procedures on this type chimney. We
recommend you consult with and have your flue built by a licensed, bonded contractor. Most masonry
chimney systems are placed against an outside wall and extend upward beside the house. The flue
thimble is then inserted through the wall, making the connection with the stovepipe and the vertical
flue. Exercise extreme caution when drilling through the wall -- you must maintain proper clearance
between the connecting liner and any combustible material in the wall.

We also recommend you have a flue clean-out door located at least two feet (2’) below your
thimble for easy cleaning of the system. This door should be made as airtight as possible. It is the
consumer’s responsibility to ensure the chimney system is safe and in good operating condition.
The manufacturer will not be held responsible for an accident attributed to a unit connected to a faulty
chimney system.

*IMPROPER INSTALLATION: The manufacturer will not be held responsible for damage caused by
the malfunction of a stove due to improper installation. Do not use makeshift methods or material
which may compromise the installation. England’s will not be liable for consequential or indirect
damages to property or persons resulting from the use of this product.
Call (800-245-6489) and/or consult a professional installer if you have any questions.

Pre-Manufactured Flue System: In the past few years pre-manufactured flue systems have
become very popular, because this type system is easily installed and, when done correctly, is very
safe. There are many pre-manufactured flue systems on the market, and when making your choice it
should be U.L., B.O.C.A. or I.C.B.O. approved. Any of these systems are constructed of the proper
materials and meet the proper safety standards. Your local dealer normally handles an approved
brand of flue pipe. There are two very popular methods for installation of this type system.

The first, most popular and least expensive is through the ceiling and out the roof. This is the
most direct route and creates a good draw because it requires less pipe. It is less expensive because
insulated pipe is needed only from the ceiling to the roof and above -- single wall 24 gauge or thicker
pipe is used from the unit to the ceiling if you maintain the proper clearance from all combustible
material.

The second method for installing a pre-manufactured system is to exit through the wall and run
the system vertically up the outside of the structure. This method is more expensive because more
insulated pipe is required -- you must use insulated pipe through the wall and up the outside of the
structure. In either installation, proper clearances to combustibles should be maintained. Your flue
pipe manufacturer furnishes a wall thimble or ceiling support box and, when installed properly, the
correct clearances are achieved. If you are unable to install this type system your local dealer may be
able to recommend a qualified contractor for this installation. It is the customer’s responsibility to
ensure that his system is installed properly and is in good operating condition.

The manufacturer will not be responsible for an accident caused by a unit connected to a faulty
flue system.

FLOOR AND WALL PROTECTION

1. Floor Protection

You will not need any floor protection if your floor

is constructed of a non-combustible material such
as brick or concrete. If your floor is constructed with
a combustible material such as hardwood, carpet or
linoleum, you must place protection between the

8”

stove and the combustible material.

There are many floor and wall board

manufacturers, and you should be very cautious in
choosing the proper protection. The type board you
choose should be U.L. rated and listed. After
examining the area you plan to place your stove
and determining it requires a board, the next step is
to select the proper size. The stove you choose will
determine the size board that is required. The
approved protector board should be large enough to provide a minimum of eight inches (8”) behind
the unit, eight inches (8”) on either side and sixteen inches (16”) in the front where the door is
located. This stove requires a minimum of 42.0” D x 41.25” W floor protection.

Installation on a Concrete Floor

An appliance mounted on a concrete floor does not require floor protection.

Carpeting and any other combustible material must not cover the Floor Protector.

If a combustible surface is applied to the concrete floor, a clearance must be maintained

equivalent to the area reserved for the floor protector.
