. Design, Installation & Location Considerations
Consideration must be given to:
• Safety
• Convenience
• Traffi c fl ow
• Chimney and chimney connector required
It is a good idea to plan your installation on paper, using exact
measurements for clearances and fl oor protection, before
actually beginning the installation. If you are not using an
existing chimney, place the appliance where there will be a
clear passage for a factory-built listed chimney through the
ceiling and roof.
We recommend that a qualifi ed building inspector and your
insurance company representative review your plans before
and after installation
If this appliance is in an area where children may be near it
is recommended that you purchase a decorative barrier to go
in front of the appliance.
away while it is operating and do not let anyone operate
this appliance unless they are familiar with these operating
instructions.
Getting Started
Remember to always keep children
B. Fire Safety
To provide reasonable fi re safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
1. Install at least one smoke detector on each fl oor of
your home to ensure your safety. They should be
located away from the heating appliance and close
to the sleeping areas. Follow the smoke detector
manufacturer’s placement and installation instructions,
and be sure to maintain regularly.
2. A conveniently located Class A fi re extinguisher to
contend with small fi res resulting from burning embers.
3. A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least two
escape routes.
4. A plan to deal with a chimney fi re as follows:
In the event of a chimney fi re:
a Evacuate the house immediately
b. Notify fi re department
WARNING
CAUTION
Check building codes prior to installation.
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations.
• Consult insurance carrier, local building, fi re offi cials or
authorities having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation
inspection, and permits.

Marginal Location:

C. Negative Pressure
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent appliances
successfully. Considerations for successful draft include:
• Preventing negative pressure
• Location of appliance and chimney
Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air available for the stove to operate properly. Causes for this imbalance include:
• Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath) etc.)
• Range hoods
• Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water
heaters and other combustion appliances
• Clothes dryers
• Location of return-air vents to furnace or air conditioning
• Imbalances of HVAC air handling system
• Upper level air leaks
• Recessed lighting
• Attic hatch opening
• Duct leaks
To minimize the affects of negative air pressure the following
must be considered:
• Install the outside air kit. Install the intake on the
side of the house towards prevailing winds during the
heating season.
• Ensure adequate outdoor air is supplied for combustion appliances and exhaust equipment.
• Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are
not located in the immediate vicinity of the appliance,
• Avoid installing the appliance near doors, walkways
or small isolated spaces.
• Recessed lighting should be of “sealed can” design;
attic hatches weather stripped or sealed; and attic
mounted ductwork and air handler joints and seams
taped or sealed.
WARNING
Asphyxiation Risk.
• Negative pressure can cause spillage of
combustion fumes, soot and carbon monoxide.
• Appliance needs to draft properly for
safety.

R
D. Flue Draft Considerations
Location of the appliance and chimney will affect performance. As shown in Figure 6.1 on page 6 the chimney
should:
• Be installed through the warm space enclosed by the
building envelope. This helps to produce more draft,
especially during lighting and die down of the fi re.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes
the affects of wind turbulence and down drafts.
• Consider the appliance location in order to avoid
fl oor and ceiling attic joists and rafters.
Exterior conditions such as roof line, surrounding trees,
prevailing winds and nearby hills can influence stove
performance. Your local dealer is the expert in your geographic
area and can usually make suggestions or discover solutions
that will easily correct your fl ue problem.
T
o be sure that your appliance burns properly, the chimney
draft (static pressure) should be approximately -.04 inch water
column (W.C.) during a low burn and -.10 inch W.C. during a
high burn, measured 6 inches (152mm) above the top of the
appliance after one hour of operation at each burn setting.
NOTE: These are guidelines only, and may vary somewhat
for individual installations.
E. Venting Systems
The venting system consists of a chimney connector (also
known as stove pipe) and a chimney. These get extremely
hot during use. Temperatures inside the chimney may
exceed 2000°F (1100°C) in the event of a creosote fi re. To
protect against the possibility of a house fi re, the chimney
connector and chimney must be properly installed and
maintained. An approved thimble must be used when a
connection is made through a combustible wall to a chimney.
A chimney support package must be used when a connection
is made through the ceiling to a prefabricated chimney.
These accessories are absolutely necessary to provide
safe clearances to combustible wall and ceiling material.
Follow venting manufacturer’s clearances when installing
venting system.
F. Tools And Supplies Needed
Before beginning the installation be sure that the following
tools and building supplies are available.
Reciprocating saw
Pliers
Hammer
Phillips Head Screwdriver
Flat Blade Screwdriver
Plumb Line
Level
Tape Measure
Framing Material
Hi-Temp Caulking Material

Chimney Height / Rise and Run
This product was designed for and tested on a 6 inch
(152mm) chimney, 12 to 14 feet (420-480cm) high, (includes
stove height) measured from the base of the appliance to
the the top of the chimney (not including chimney cap).
The further your stack height or diameter varies from this
confi guration, the possibility of performance problems exists.
Chimney height may need to be increased by 2
each 1000 feet above sea level. It is not recommended to
use offsets or elbows at altitudes above 4000 feet above sea
level or when there are other factors that affect fl ue draft.
- 3% per
Masonry Chimney Liner
For optimal performance, masonry chimneys used to vent
this appliance should be:
1. Lined with a 6 inch (152mm) stainless steel liner.
• Installations into a clay fl ue without a stainless steel
liner may reduce draw which affects performance,
cause the glass to darken and produce excessive
creosote.
2. It is recommended that a chimney with a larger diameter
than 6 inches (152mm) be relined.
• The oversized fl ue can cause poor performance and
contribute to the accumulation of creosote.
3. Have the chimney cleaned before the stove is installed
and operated.
The following bullets list the more critical requirements for a
properly constructed chimney:
• The masonry wall of the chimney, if brick or modular
block, must be a minimum of 4 inches (102mm) nominal
thickness.
• A chimney of rubble stone must be at least 12 inches
(305mm) thick.
• The chimney must have a fi re clay fl ue liner (or equivalent)
with a minimum thickness of 5/8 inch (16mm) and must
be installed with refractory mortar.
• An equivalent liner must be a listed chimney liner system
or other approved material.

A. Over-Firing Your Appliance
WARNING
Fire Risk
Do not over-fi re.
Over-fi ring may ignite creosote or will damage
the stove and chimney.
To prevent over-fi ring your stove, DO NOT:
• Use fl ammable liquids
• Overload with wood
• Burn trash or large amounts of scrap lumber
• Permit too much air to the fi re
1. Symptoms of Over-Firing
Symptoms of over-fi ring may include one or more of the
following:
• Chimney connector or appliance glowing
• Roaring, rumbling noises
• Loud cracking or banging sounds
• Metal warping
• Chimney fi re
2. What To Do if Your Stove is Over-Firing
• Immediately close the door and air controls to reduce
air supply to the fi re.
• If you suspect a chimney fi re, call the fi re department
and evacuate your house.
• Contact your local chimney professional and have
your stove and stove pipe inspected for any damage.
• Do not use your stove until the chimney professional
informs you it is safe to do so.
Hearth & Home Technologies WILL NOT warranty stoves
that exhibit evidence of over-fi ring. Evidence of over-fi ring
includes, but is not limited to:
• Warped air tube
• Deteriorated refractory brick retainers
• Deteriorated baffl e and other interior components
B. Wood Selection and Storage
WARNING
FIRE RISK.
• DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE
FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPTHA OR
ENGINE OIL.
• DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START A
FIRE.
• Do NOT burn treated wood or wood with salt (driftwood).
• May generate carbon monooxide if burn material other
than wood.
May result in illness or possible death.
Hardwood vs Softwood
Your appliance performance depends on the quality of the
fi rewood you use.
• Seasoned wood contains about 8,000 BTUs per pound .
• Hard woods are more dense than soft woods.
• Hard woods contain 60% more BTUs than soft woods.
• Hard woods require more time to season, burn slower and
are harder to ignite.
• Soft woods require less time to dry, burn faster and are
easier to ignite.
• Start the fi re with softwood to bring the appliance up to
operating temperature and to establish draft.
• Add hardwood for slow, even heat and longer burn time.
Soft woods Hard woods
• Douglas Fir • Oak
• Pine • Maple
• Spruce • Apple
• Cedar • Birch
• Poplar
• Aspen

Moisture
The majority of the problems appliance owners experience
are caused by trying to burn wet, unseasoned wood.
• Wet, unseasoned wood requires energy to evaporate the
water instead of heating your home, and
• Causes evaporating moisture which cools your chimney,
accelerating formation of creosote.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
• Do NOT burn wet or green wood.
• Store wood in dry location.
• Stack wood so both ends are exposed to air.
Wet, unseasoned wood can cause accumulation of
creosote.
Seasoned Wood
• Cut logs to size
• Split to 6 inches (152 mm) or less in diameter
• Air dry to a moisture content of not more than 20%
- Soft wood - about nine months to dry
- Hard wood - about eighteen months to dry
NOTICE: Seasoning time may vary depending on drying
conditions.
Storing Wood
Steps to ensure properly seasoned wood:
• Stack wood to allow air to circulate freely around and
through woodpile.
• Elevate wood pile off ground to allow air circulation
underneath.
• Smaller pieces of wood dry faster. Any piece over 6 in.
(152 mm) in diameter should be split.
• Wood (whole or split) should be stacked so both ends of
each piece are exposed to air. More drying occurs through
the cut ends than the sides.
• Store wood under cover to prevent water absorption
from rain or snow. Avoid covering the sides and ends
completely.
WARNING
Fire Risk
Do NOT store wood:
• In front of the appliance.
• In space required for loading or ash
removal.
C. Burning Process
In recent years there has been an increasing concern about
air quality. Much of the blame for poor air quality has been
placed on the burning of wood for home heating.
In order to improve the situation, we at Quadra-Fire have
developed cleaner-burning wood appliances that surpass
the requirements for emissions established by our governing
agencies.
These wood appliances must be properly operated in order
to ensure that they perform the way they are designed to
perform.
NOTICE: Improper operation can turn any wood appliance into a smoldering environmental hazard.
1. Kindling or First Stage
It helps to know a little about the actual process of burning in
order to understand what goes on inside the appliance. The
fi rst stage of burning is called the kindling stage.
In this stage:
• Wood is heated to a temperature high enough to evapo-
rate the moisture present in all wood.
• Wood will reach the boiling point of water (212°F) and will
not get any hotter until the water is evaporated.
This process takes heat from the coals and tends to cool the
appliance.
Fire requires three things to burn:
• Fuel
• Air
• Heat
If heat is robbed from the appliance during the drying stage,
the new load of wood has reduced the chances for a good
clean burn.
It is always best to burn dry, seasoned fi rewood. When the
wood isn’t dry, you must open the air controls and burn at a
high burn setting for a longer time to start it burning.
The heat generated from the fi re should be warming your
home and establishing the fl ue draft, not evaporating the moisture out of wet, unseasoned wood, resulting in wasted heat.
2. Second Stage
In the secondary stage wood gives off fl ammable gases which
burn above the fuel with bright fl ames.
During this stage of burning:
•
The fl ames must be maintained and not allowed to go out
ensure the cleanest possible fi re.
to
• If the fl ames tend to go out, it is set too low for your burn-
ing conditions.

Primary Air
Slide Control
Start-Up Air
Control
The Primary Air Slide Control located under the ashlip adjusts the burn rates. Figure 23.1.
3. Final Stage
The fi nal stage of burning is the charcoal stage. This occurs
when the fl ammable gases have been mostly burned and
only charcoal remains. This is a naturally clean portion of
the burn. The coals burn with hot blue fl ames.
• It is very important to reload your appliance 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 Primary Air Slide Control and the
Start-Up Air Controls before reloading. This livens up
the coalbed and reduces excessive emissions (opacity/
smoke).
• Open door slowly so that ash or smoke does not exit appliance through opening.
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.
We need to learn to burn in the cleanest way possible allowing us to continue using our wood appliances for many
years to come.
E. Air Controls
Start-Up Air System
The combustion air enters at the rear of the fi rebox 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 fi rebox, near the top of the glass
door and to the lower front of fi rebox. 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.
D. Combustible/Non-Combustible Materials
• Combustible Material
Material made of or surfaced with wood, compressed
paper, plant fi bers, plastics, or any material capable
of igniting and burning, whether fl ame-proofed or not,
plastered or unplastered.
• Non-Combustible Material
Material which will not ignite and burn. Such materials are
those consisting entirely of steel, iron, brick, tile, slate,
glass or plasters, or any combination thereof.
Materials that are reported as passing ASTM E 136,
Standard Test Method for Behavior of Materials in a
Vertical Tube Furnance at 750 oC and UL763 shall be
considered non-combustible materials.
• Non-Combustible Sealant Material
Sealants which will not ignite and burn: Rutland, Inc.
Fireplace Mortar #63, Rutland 76R, Nuflex 304, GE
RTV106 or GE RTB116 (or equivalent).

I. Building A Fire
Before lighting your fi rst fi re make certain that the
baffl e is correctly positioned. It should be resting
against the rear support.
There are many ways to build a fi re. The basic principle
is to light easily-ignitable tinder or paper, which ignites the
fast burning kindling, which in turn ignites the slow-burning
fi rewood. Here is one method that works well:
1. Place several wads of crushed paper on the fi rebox fl oor.
Heating the fl ue with slightly crumpled newspaper
before adding kindling keeps smoke to a minimum.
2. Lay small dry sticks of kindling on top of the paper.
3. Open Start-Up Air Control and Primary Air Slide Control
fully. After 5 to 15 minutes, when the fi re is well established,
gently pull Start-Up Air Control forward until resistance is
felt. Do not allow control to "spring back" into the open
position.
4. Make sure that no matches or other combustibles are
in the immediate area of the stove. Be sure the room is
adequately ventilated and the fl ue unobstructed.
5. Light the paper in the stove. NEVER light or rekindle stove
with kerosene, gasoline, or charcoal lighter fl uid; the results
can be fatal.
6. Once the kindling is burning quickly, add several full-length
logs 3 inches (76mm) or 4 inches (102mm) in diameter.
Be careful not to smother the fi re. Stack the pieces of
wood carefully: near enough to keep each other hot, but
far enough away from each other to allow adequate air
fl ow between them.
7. When ready to reload the stove, add more logs. Large
logs burn slowly, holding a fi re longer. Small logs burn fast
and hot, giving quick heat.
8. Adjust the Start-Up Air Control and Primary Air Slide Control; the more you close down (slide right) the Primary Air
Slide Control, the lower and slower the fi re will burn. The
more you open (slide left) the Primary Air Slide Control,
the more heat will be produced. The Start-Up Air Control
is only used for the fi rst 5 to 15 minutes.
9. As long as there are hot coals, repeating steps 7 and 8 will
maintain a continuous fi re throughout the season.
NOTE: The special high temperature paint that your stove is
fi nished with will cure as your stove heats. You will
notice an odor and perhaps see some vapor rise from
the stove surface; this is normal. We recommend that
you open a window until the odor dissipates and paint
is cured.
NOTE: Stove should be run full open for 15 minutes a day to
keep air passages clean.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
• DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE
FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPTHA OR
ENGINE OIl.
• Do NOT burn treated wood or wood with salt (driftwood).
• May generate carbon monoxide if burn material other
than wood.
May result in illness or possible death.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Keep combustible materials, gasoline
and other fl ammable vapors and liquids
clear of appliance.
• Do NOT store fl ammable materials in the appliance’s
vicinity.
• DO NOT USE GASOLINE, LANTERN FUEL,
KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID OR
SIMILAR LIQUIDS TO START OR “FRESHEN UP” A
FIRE IN THIS HEATER.
• Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it
is in use.
• Combustible materials may ignite.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
• Do not leave the fi re unattended when the door
is unlatched or when using the fi rescreen.
• Unstable fi rewood could fall out of the fi rebox
creating a fi re hazard to your home.
CAUTION
Odors and vapors released during initial operation.
• Curing of high temperature paint.
• Open windows for air circulation.
Odors may be irritating to sensitive individuals.
NOTE:
• Build fi re on brick fi rebox fl oor.
• Do NOT use grates, andirons or other methods to support
fuel.
It will averserly affect emissions.

J. Optional Blower Operating Instructions
1. Initial (cold) start-up: Leave blower off until your stove
is hot and a good coalbed is established. The blower
may be turned on approximately 30 minutes after a good
coalbed is established.
2. High burn setting: The blower may be left on through-
out the burn at your desired setting.
3. Medium burn settings: The blower should be left off
until a good burn is established, then turned on at your
desired setting.
4. Low burn setting: The blower tends to cool off the
stove. Leave blower off until burn is well established.
Then turn on at your desired rate.
5. The highest blower speed is obtained by turning the
speed control on and then adjusting counterclockwise
towards "OFF" as far as possible without turning the
blower off. For a low blower speed, turn the control knob
clockwise as far as possible.
K. Opacity (Smoke)
Opacity is the measure of how cleanly your appliance is
burning.
Opacity is measured in percent:
• 100% opacity is when an object is totally obscured by
the smoke column from a chimney, and
• 0% opacity means that no smoke column can be seen.
As you become familiar with your appliance, you should periodically check the opacity. This will allow you to know how to
burn as nearly smoke-free as possible (goal of 0% opacity).

A. General Maintenance
1. Creosote (Chimney) Cleaning
• Frequency: Every 2 months during heating season or as
recommended by a certifi ed chimney sweep; more frequently
if chimney exceeds or is under 12-14 ft. (measured from base
of appliance)
• By: Certified Chimney Sweep
1. Remove all ash from the fi rebox and extinguish all hot embers
before disposal. Allow the appliance to cool completely. It is
also recommended that before each heating season the entire
system be professionally inspected, cleaned and repaired if
necessary.
2. Close the door tightly and proceed with sweeping the chimney.
3. Sweep the collected ashes into the ash removal box, and empty.
Clean out the remaining ashes from fi rebox.
4. Open top-loading door and vacuum out.
Inspection: Inspect the system at the appliance connection and at
the chimney top. Cooler surfaces tend to build creosote deposits
quicker, so it is important to check the chimney from the top as well
as from the bottom.
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 fl ue
of a newly-started or a slow-burning fi re. As a result, creosote
residue accumulates on the fl ue lining. When ignited, this creosote
creates an extremely hot fi re which may damage the chimney or
even destroy the house.
The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected once
every 2 months during the heating season to determine if a creosote
or soot buildup has occurred. If creosote or soot has accumulated,
it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fi re.
2. Ash Removal System (ARS) Operating and Cleaning
• Frequency: Weekly when in constant operation or as
needed.
• By: Homeowner
CAUTION
Injury Risk.
• Gloves recommended
• Ash coals can remain extremely hot for
several days.
1. The stove and ashes must be completely cooled down before
using the Ash Removal System.The hinged door will open
from the right hand side. Pull ash pan out carefully.
2. Clean ash down through the ash removal system grate into
the drawer below. If there are large pieces in the ashes, you
can remove the grate before brushing the ash into the drawer.
3. Be sure to replace the grate before operating the stove.
Remember to leave 1/4 to 1/2 inch (6-13mm) of ash on the
fi rebox fl oor to act as a natural grate, allowing air to fl ow freely
underneath wood
4. Replace ash pan and close ash door handle. Dispose of the
ashes following the directions on page 23.
Fire Risk.
Prevent creosote buildup.
• Inspect chimney connector and chimney once
every two months during heating season.
• Remove creosote to reduce risk of chimney fi re.

3. Disposal of Ashes
• Frequency:
When ash is within 1-3/4 in. (44mm) of firebox

• By: Homeowner
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a
tight fi tting lid. The closed container of ashes should
be placed on a non-combustible fl oor or on the ground,
well away from all combustible materials, pending fi nal
disposal.
If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed
container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Disposal of Ashes
• Ashes should be placed in metal container with tight
fi tting lid.
• Do not place metal container on combustible surface.
• Ashes should be retained in closed container until all
cinders have thoroughly cooled.
5. Glass Cleaning
• Frequency: As desired
• By: Homeowner
Clean glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Abrasive
cleaners may scratch and cause glass to crack. If the
deposits on the glass are not very heavy, normal glass
cleaners work well. Heavier deposits may be removed
by using a damp cloth dipped in wood ashes or by using
a commercially available oven cleaner.
After using an oven cleaner, it is advisable to remove any
residue with a glass cleaner or soap and water. Oven
cleaner left on during the next fi ring can permanently
stain the glass and damage the fi nish on plated metal
surfaces.
A portion of the combustion air entering the fi rebox is defl ected
down over the inside of the door glass. This air fl ow “washes”
the glass, helping to keep smoke from adhering to its surface.
When operated at a low burn rate, less air will be fl owing over
the glass and the smokey, relatively cool condition of a low
fi re will cause the glass to become coated.
Operating the appliance with the Primary Air Control all
the way open for 15-20 minutes should remove the built up
coating.
4. Cleaning Plated Surfaces
• Frequency: Prior to first burn and then as desired
• By: Homeowner
Clean all the fi ngerprints and oils from plated surfaces
BEFORE fi ring the appliance for the fi rst time. If not
cleaned properly before lighting your fi rst fi re, the oils
can cause permanent markings on the plating.
After the plating is cured, the oils will not affect the
fi nish and little maintenance is required. Wipe clean
as needed.
CAUTION
• Do not use polishes with abrasives.
It will scratch plated surfaces.
CAUTION
Handle glass assembly with care.
When cleaning glass:
• Avoid striking, scratching or
slamming glass.
• Do NOT clean glass when hot.
• Do NOT use abrasive cleaners.
• Use a hard water deposit glass cleaner on white fi lm.
• Use commerical oven cleaner on heavier deposits.
• Remove all residue of oven cleaner or will permanently
stain glass on next fi ring.
•

Instructions
• Frequency: After each ash removal
• By: Homeowner
Replace the fi rebrick if they become crumbly and/or if there
is a 1/4 inch (6.35mm) gap between the bricks.
The fi rebox is lined with fi rebrick, which has exceptional insulating properties. Do not use a grate; simply build a fi re on
the fi rebox fl oor. Do not operate appliance without fi rebrick.
Ensure that the fi rebricks are correctly positioned and that
the fi rebox does not contain any broken brick prior to operating the unit.
1. After the coals have completely cooled, remove all old
brick and ash from unit and vacuum out fi rebox.
2. Remove new brick set from box and lay out to the
diagram shown in the instructions that come with the
replacement brick set
3. Lay bottom bricks in unit.
4. Install rear bricks on the top of the bottom bricks. Slide
top of bricks under clip on back of fi rebox wall and push
bottom of bricks back.
5. Install side bricks. Slide top of brick under clips on side
of fi rebox and push the bottom of the brick until it is fl ush
with the side of the unit.

the edge so the door lays fl at on a soft surface.
5. Remove the screws from each glass retainer and
remove the glass. (If screws are diffi cult to remove,
soak with penetrating oil fi rst).
6. Center the glass with edges evenly overlapping the
opening in the door, (i.e. same space top and bottom,
left and right sides).
7. Replace the glass retainers. Be careful not to cross
thread the screws.
8. Tighten each retainer just a few turns until each is
secured. Check again for centering of glass in door
frame. Continue to tighten each retainer alternately,
a few turns at a time, until the glass is snug. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
9. Replace the door on the appliance.
Quadra-Fire stoves are equipped with ceramic super
heat-resistant glass, which can only be broken by impact
or misuse.
Do not slam stove door or impact the glass. When closing
door, make sure that logs do not protrude against the
glass. Inspect glass regularly.
If you fi nd a crack or break, immediately put the fi re out
and return the door to your dealer for replacement of glass
before further use.
WARNING
Handle glass with care.
• Inspect the gasket to ensure it is
undamaged.
• Do NOT strike, slam or scratch glass.
• Do NOT operate appliance with glass
& door assembly removed.
• Do NOT operate with glass cracked, broken or scratched.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Injury Risk.
• Use only glass specifi ed in manual.
• DO NOT REPLACE with any other material.
Glass breakage will occur.

Start the fi rst inspection after the fi rst 2 months of use,

accordingly. Maintenance is required for safe operation
and must be performed to maintain your warranty.
Task
Baffl e placement is critical to heat output, effi ciency and overall life of the unit. Make sure
the baffl e is pushed all of the way to the back
of the fi rebox. Inspect baffl e for cracks.
Vacuum the blower impellers.
The chimney and chimney cap must be inspected for soot and creosote every two months
during the burn season or more frequency if
chimney exceeds or is under 14-16 ft. (4.3m-
4.8m) measured from bottom of appliance.
This will prevent pipe blockage, poor draft, and
chimney fi res.

Always burn dry wood to help prevent cap
blockage and creosote build-up.
Ashes must be cool before you can dispose of
the ashes in a non-combustible container.
Firebrick is designed to protect your fi rebox.
After ashes are removed, inspect the fi rebrick
and replace fi rebricks that are crumbling,
cracked or broken.
Keep door and glass gasket in good shape to
maintain good burn times on a low burn setting.
To test: place a dollar bill between the stove and
door and then shut the door. If you can pull the
dollar out, remove one washer from door handle
behind latch cam and try again. If you can still
pull it out, replace the door gasket.
Check the glass frame for loose screws to prevent air leakage. Check glass for cracks.
Check the door latch for proper adjustment.
This is very important especially after the door
rope has formed to the stove face.
Check door handle for smooth cam operation.

Troubleshooting Guide
10
With proper installation, operation, and maintenance your woodstove will provide years of trouble-free service. If you do
experience a problem, this troubleshooting guide will assist you or a qualifi ed service person in the diagnosis of a problem
and the corrective action to be taken.
Start Fire Problems Possible Cause Solution
Can not get fi re started
Excessive smoke or spillage
Burns too slowly
Not enough heat output
Not enough kindling/paper or no
kindling/paper
Not enough air for fi re to ignite
Use dry kindling, more paper. Arrange kindling &
wood for air movement.
Check for restricted termination cap
Check for blockage of outside air kit (if installed).
Check for fl ue blockage.
Pre-warm fl ue before starting fi re (refer to Building
a Fire Section).
Fire burns too fast
Wood condition is too wet, too
large
Bed of coals not established
before adding wood
Flue blockage such as birds’
nests or leaves in termination
cap
Down draft or negative pressure
Competition with exhaust
devices
Extremely dry or soft wood
Overdrafting
Check for adequate vent height (refer to Chimney
Height Section).
Open window below the appliance towards the
wind.
Use dry, seasoned wood (refer to Seasoned Wood
Section).
Start with paper & kindling to establish bed of
coals (refer to Building a Fire Section).
Have chimney inspected for creosote and cleaned
by a certifi ed chimney sweep.
Do not use exhaust fans during start-up (refer to
Negative Pressure Section).
Open window below the appliance towards the
wind.
Mix in hardwood.
Mix in less seasoned wood after fi re is established
(refer to Wood Fuel Section).
Check for correct vent height; too much vertical
height creates overdrafting.
Check location of vent termination (refer to
Chimney Termination Requirement Section).
