NOTES ON STOVE OPERATION AND EFFICIENCY
Rating:
You have purchased a Hearthstone Green Mountain 60 tested to EPA Method 28R 4 0 C FR Part 60 where applicable. This
stove is certified to comply with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 2020 particulate emissions standard using crib
wood. It is certified at 0.6 gr/hr. emission rate and under specific test conditi ons has been shown to deliver heat at rates
ranging from 12,600 to 33,600 Btu ( output).
This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum allowable low burn rate that must not be altered. It is against feder al
regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a m anner inconsistent with operating instructions in
this manual.
Please refer to the Warranty section of this manual for registration instr uctions. In case of warranty claims, please contact
the point of original sale or the nearest authorized Hearthstone dealer . Our dealer network processes all warranty claims.
Authorized Hearthstone dealers c an be located at www.hearthstonestoves.com
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower emissions generally result when burning
air-dried seasoned hardwoods , as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods. DO NOT BURN:Garbage,
lawn clippings, material containing rubber (including tires), materials containing plastic, waste petr oleum products paints or
paint thinners, asphalt products, materials containing asbestos , construction or demolition debris, railroad ties, pressure
treated wood, manure or animal remains, salt water driftwood or other previously salt water saturated materials, unseasoned
wood, paper products, cardboard, plywood or particleboard. T his prohibition against burning these materials does not
prohibit the use of fire starters made from paper, cardboard, sawdust, wax and similar substances for t he purpose of starting
a fire in an affected wood heater. Burni ng these materials may result in a release toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective
and cause smoke.
Following the maintenance guidelines set forth in this manual will help insure the efficient use of your wood heater and
minimize visible emissions. Having your stove inspected by a trained professional on a regular basis will greatly increase the
potential for recognizing potential impacts to efficiency.
Proper draft is important to the efficient operation of your heater. Refer to the Normal Operation section of this manual for
information regarding adequate dr aft. Both excessive and sub-minimum draft can affect the efficiency of your wood heater.
Excessive draft can lead to over-consumption of fuel, lower overall heating capacity of the stove and potent ial over firing.
Low draft can result in inefficient bur ns, low heat output, expulsion of smoke into the living area when stove doors are
opened and an increased potential f or build-up of flammable materials i n the flue.
Efficiency:
Efficiency was measured and weighted using EPA Method 28R and CSA B415-10 methodology. A weighted average was
used to calculate the overall efficiency across all of the 4 burn rate categ or ies using the higher heating value (HHV). The
weighted average efficiency is 79% (HHV).
To maximize the efficiency of your wood stove make sure it is sized properl y for the space you plan to heat. An ov ersized
stove will often be forced to burn at a lower and dirtier burn rate. Consult with your dealer for sizing and corr ec tly placing the
stove in your home. An incorrectl y placed stove can greatly reduce efficien cy. Maximizing the efficiency of your s tove will
heat your house quickly, burn cleaner and use less wood.
Refer to the Choosing Firewood sect ion of this manual for appropriate fuel s el ec tion. Seasoned firewood is typically at or
near 20% moisture content. This can be m easured with any number of hand-held moist ure meters available through your
local hearth shop. Follow instructions included in the meter you purchase to measure fuel wood moisture content. Burn only
dry, seasoned wood as using wet woo d will greatly reduce your efficiency.
CO Emissions:
The Green Mountain 60 has the following CO emission rates by burn level: Category 1 (low) –9.0 g/hr., Category 2 (med.
low) – 21.0 g/ hr., Category 3 (med. high) – 33.0 g/hr. and Category 4 – 51.6 g/hr. Wet wood or unapproved fuel described
above can greatly affect the emissions of a wood burning stove.
Smoke/Fire/CO Detectors:
It is highly recommended that smoke and CO detectors be installed throughout the heated space when a wood burning
heater is installed. Be certain to install these devices not only in the area where the wood appliance is located, but also in
bedrooms, hallways leading to other areas of the house and all common areas of the heated space. Check the batteries i n
these devices and assure operation by performing whatever test operations are recommended by the manufacturer.

Install the stove in a safe, open area, away from
traffic flow, doors, and hallways. If possible, try to
install the stove near an existing chimney and
chimney connector. It is extremely important to
install this stove with the proper clearance from
combustible surfaces. You can purchase specific
connector pipe and special wall coverings as
specified by this manual and the NFPA 211 code to
protect combustible surfaces. As a general rule,
keep furniture, drapes, curtains, wood, paper, and
other combustibles at least 36 inches (92 cm) away
from the stove. Never install the stove in or near a
storage location for gasoline, kerosene, charcoal
lighter fluid or any other flammable liquids.
Install the stove in your central living area to allow
heat to radiate naturally to distant rooms. Do not
install your stove in a poorly insulated area. This is
inefficient and would likely result in higher fuel
usage.

PERIODIC CHECKLIST
Perform each of these tasks at the specified
intervals.
At the End of Every Week:
•Empty ashes from the firebox, sooner if the
firebox is full.
At the Beginning of Every Other Month:
•Depending upon your use of the stove, visually
inspect the chimney connector and chimney for
creosote. (see page 29)
•Check door seals using the "dollar bill test." -
When the stove is cool, shut the door on a dollar
bill. If the bill pulls out without any resistance,
then your stove’s door is not sealing properly. To
tighten the seal, adjust the door latch
mechanism or change the door gasket. (Refer to
page 29.)
•Inspect the face of the catalytic combustor for fly
ash and soot. Use a soft-bristled brush to
remove if present. It is recommended to visually
inspect the catalytic combustor at least 3 times
during the heating season, or every 2-3 months.
At the End of Every Season:
•Dismantle the chimney connector and clean it
thoroughly. Replace any pieces that show signs
of rust or deterioration.
• Inspect and, if necessary, clean your chimney.
• Clean out the inside of the stove thoroughly.
• Check and clean the catalytic combustor, if
necessary
•Inspect all door gasket material and replace if
worn, frayed, cracked or extremely hard.
•WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUT OUT A
STOVEPIPE OR CHIMNEY FIRE BY THROWING
WATER ONTO THE STOVE, STOVEPIPE, OR
CHIMNEY. THE EXTREMELY HIGH
TEMPERATURE OF SUCH FIRES CAN CAUSE
INSTANTANEOUS STEAM AND SERIOUS BODILY
HARM.
Once the chimney fire expires, leave the primary air
control and bypass handle closed and let the fire in
the stove die out completely. Inspect the stov e,
stovepipe, and chimney thoroughly for any sign of
damage before firing the stove again. You must
correct any damage before using your stove again.
Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burner and
firing technique. Check daily for creosote build-up
until experience shows how often you need to clean
to be safe. Be aware that the hotter the fire the less
creosote is deposited, and weekly cleaning may be
necessary in mild weather even though monthly
cleaning may be enough in the coldest months.
Contact your local municipal or provincial fire
authority for information on how to handle a chimney
fire. Have a clearly understood plan to handle a
chimney fire.
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
If you have a stovepipe or chimney fire, follow these
instructions:
1. If the fire is too threatening, leave the area and
call the fire department immediately! If not,
perform the next three steps.
2. Close the primary air control.
3. Close the stovepipe damper (if present).
4. Close the bypass damper
5. Keep the stove front door closed!

PACK LIST
Green Mountain 60 Model 8660 Woodstove
Owner’s Manual
Parts Box
The label is attached by a cable to the bottom of t he
stove. Take care when lifting the stove not to
damage the label or cable. After final positioning of
the stove, the label may be stored in the holding clip
on the bottom shield of the stove.
Figure 2 - Label Location
Choose a place to install your Green Mountain 60
woodstove. Consider the location of your stove for
optimum heating efficiency. In general, it is better to
place your stove in a main living area, rather than in
a basement or other confined space.
Inspect this location to make sure that the stove and
stovepipes will have the required clearance from
combustible materials that are near the stove.
Combustibles include walls, floor, ceiling, and
chimney chase. You must carefully consider the
clearances to all of these combustibles before
actually connecting your stove.
If the floor is made of combustible material, then a
non-combustible floor protector is required between
the floor and the stove. An example of a noncombustible floor protector is a hearth constructed
with a continuous layer of tile, brick, slate, glass or
another non-combustible facing. There is no R-value
requirement.
If you use a rear connector pipe, ensure it is listed
with Underwriter’s Laboratories. Check the listing of
your pipe with UL for the correct clearances.
The diagrams in this manual represent typical
installations, but are specific to the Simpson DuraVent DVL brand.
Clearances to NFPA Code 211 Protected
Surfaces
You can reduce the clearances to combustible
surfaces by using any National Fire Protection
Agency (NFPA) approved wall protection system
with additional approval of the regulatory authority
having jurisdiction in your area. Please refer to
NFPA Code 211 for specifications and complete
details. You can obtain this information directly from
the NFPA.
