Included are helpful hints and suggestions that will make the operation and maintenance of your new insert an easier and more enjoyable experience.

Please read the entire manual carefully before you install and use your new HWAM woodburning insert. FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. This manual contains important user information. Keep this manual with the insert after installation is complete.

Safety and Environmental Testing

HWAM 3055 has been tested by Intertek Testing Services of Fairview, Oregon, and is safety listed by Intertek to UL 1482, ULC-S627.

The serial number is ﬁ xed to the insert and to the guarantee card. If you need to contact the factory please refer to this serial number.

Items Included:

1 instruction and maintenance manual, 1 guarantee card, 1 oven mitten, ﬂ ue connector with telescopic tube and Ø6 mm gasket, glass for the door, door handle, glass mounting brackets, metal ﬁ replace surround trim kit, door adjustment tool (for upswing door) and screws for the glass mounting brackets and ﬂ ue connector.

CONT ACT YOUR LOCAL BUILDING OFFICIALS FOR INFORMA TION ON RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION AND PERMIT REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR AREA.

WARNINGS!

Keep door closed during ﬁ ring in this insert. Use a metal container with a tight

ﬁ tting lid to dispose of ashes.

Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter ﬂ uid, or

similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a ﬁ re in this insert. Keep all such liquids well

away from the insert while it is in use. Do not burn garbage or ﬂ ammable ﬂ uids such as gasoline, naphtha or engine oil. The insert is hot while in operation. Do not touch. Keep children, clothing and

furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. Use gloves when stoking the ﬁ re. Do not connect this insert to a chimney ﬂ ue connected to another insert or appliance. Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system. Do not install in a mobile home. Be sure to allow an adequate source of fresh air into the room where the insert is

operating. Do not operate the insert without the ﬁ rebox refractory plates properly installed. Build ﬁ res directly on the refractory bottom plates inside the insert. Do not use grates, irons or any other method to elevate the ﬁ re.

What to Do if You Have a Chimney Fire

If you realize a chimney ﬁ re is occurring, follow these steps:

• Get everyone out of the house, including yourself.

• Call the ﬁ re department. If you can do so without risk to yourself, these additional steps may help save your home. Remember, however, that homes are replaceable, lives are not.

• Close the air controls on the insert.

• Use a garden hose to spray down the roof (not the chimney) so the ﬁ re won’t spread to the rest of the structure.

• Once it’s over, call a CSIA Certiﬁ ed Chimney Sweep to inspect for damage. Chimney ﬁ re damage and repair is normally covered by homeowner insurance policies.

2. Installation

WARNING

IF YOUR HW AM WOOD-BURNING INSERT IS NOT PROPERLY INST ALLED, OPERATED AND MAINTAINED, A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. FOR YOUR SAFETY, FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE DIRECTIONS.

Pre-Installation Check List

Before you begin an installation, review your plans and check to see that:

• Your insert will be far enough from combustible material to meet all clearance requirements.

• The ﬂ oor protection is large enough and is constructed properly to meet all requirements.

• You have all necessary permits from your local authorities. Your local building ofﬁ cial is the ﬁ nal authority for approving your installation as safe and in determining that it meets all local and state building and safety codes.

The metal label permanently attached to the back of every HWAM wood-burning insert shows that it has been tested to current UL and ULC safety standards, and gives the name of the testing laboratory. Clearance and installation information is also printed on the label. Local authorities will generally accept the label as evidence that, when the insert is installed according to the information on the label and in this manual, the installation meets codes and can be approved.

This wood insert must be installed in a code-approved masonry chimney with a ﬂ ue liner or a UL 127/ULC S610 approved factory ﬁ replace. The insert must ﬁ t inside the existing ﬁ replace opening with a gap of at least 3/16” (5 mm) on each side and the top. The approved masonry or factory ﬁ replace the combustion chamber and chimney of the ﬁ replace must not be modiﬁ ed by removing bricks, mortar or any metal parts that would affect the thermal characteristics or safety of the ﬁ replace in any way. If the existing ﬁ replace has been modiﬁ ed in any way attach the metal tag stating “This ﬁ replace has been altered to accommodate a ﬁ replace insert and must be re-inspected by a qualiﬁ ed person prior to re- use as a ﬁ replace “ to the back of the existing ﬁ replace with nails or screws where it will be seen by anyone removing the insert. In Canada this ﬁ replace insert must be installed with a continuous chimney liner of 6.0” (153 mm) diameter extending from the ﬁ replace insert to the top of the chimney. The chimney liner must conform to the Class 3 requirements of CAN/ ULC-S636, Standard for Lining Systems for Existing Masonry or Factory-Built Chimneys and Vents, or CAN/ULC-S640, Standard for Lining Systems for New Masonry Chimneys.

For any unresolved questions about installation in the USA, refer to the national Fire Protection Association’s publication ANSI/NFPA 211 Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces,

Vents and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances. For installation in Canada, refer to CSA CAN-B365, Installation Code for Solid Fuel Burning Applications and Equipment. These standards are

the basis for many national codes. They are nationally recognized and are accepted by most local authorities. Your local dealer or your local building ofﬁ cial may have a copy of these regulations.

WARNING!

CHECK ALL LOCAL BUILDING AND SAFETY CODES BEFORE INSTALLATION. THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND APPROPRIATE CODE REQUIREMENTS MUST BE FOLLOWED EXACTLY AND WITHOUT COMPROMISE. ALTERATIONS TO THE INSERT ARE NOT ALLOWED. DO NOT CONNECT THE INSERT TO A CHIMNEY SYSTEM SERVING ANOTHER INSERT, APPLIANCE OR ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCT. F AILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL VOID THE MANUF ACTURER’S W ARRANTY.

NOTE

Before installing the insert into an existing masonry chimney or approved factory ﬁ replace, have the ﬁ replace and chimney inspected by a local ﬁ re marshal or qualiﬁ ed installer. Remember that the chimney and its location on the roof will affect the performance of the insert. An oversized ﬂ ue may not provide effective draft, and a ﬂ ue liner may be required. (Observe draft requirements.) Consult your dealer or qualiﬁ ed installer before ﬁ nal selection is made.

Room Requirements

There must be a constant supply of fresh air to the room in which the insert is to be installed. A window that opens or an adjustable air vent should sufﬁ ce. Please be aware that not all glass parts are heat-resistant. For this reason, a glass wall should sometimes be treated as a ﬂ ammable wall. Contact your local chimney sweep or glass producer to hear at what distance the insert should be kept from glass.

Hearth and Floor Protection The hearth and/or ﬂ oor protection required depends on the height of the insert from the ﬂ oor . If this height, “H”, on the accompanying diagram is 14 inches (356 mm) or less there must be a thermally rated non-combustible hearth/ﬂ oor protector meeting or exceeding a thermal rating of k=.42 or equivalent with a listed thickness of 1” (26 mm) minimum. The covering must extend 12” (305 mm) in front of the insert and 8” (204 mm) to each side (measured from the edge of the glass door).

If H is greater than 14 inches then only ember protection is required and must extend 18” (mm) from the front of the insert and 8” (200mm) to each side (measured from the edge of the glass door).

Using Alternate Material As Floor / Hearth Protection The hearth extension or alternate material used as a ﬂ oor/hearth protector must be constructed

of a durable noncombustible material having an equal or better thermal conductivity value (lower k value) of k =.42 BTU/IN FT2 HR °F or a thermal resistance that equals or exceeds r = 2.38 With these values, determine the minimum thickness of the alternate material required using the formula(s) and shown in Table ?.

Note: Any noncombustible material having a minimum thickness of 1”(26 mm) whose k value is less than .42 or whose r value is more than 2.38 is acceptable. If the alternate material used has a higher k value or lower r value will require a greater thickness of the material used. In some cases, if the k value is less or the r value higher, a thinner material may be used.

Methods of determining ﬂ oor protection equivalents: To determine the thickness required for the alternate material when either the “k” value or “r” value is known, use either the k formula or r formula.

Example: If Micore 300 Mineral Fiber Board is to be used for the ﬂ oor protection, how thick must this material be?

kM = k value per inch of alternate material r

= r value per inch of alternate material

= minimum thickness required for alternate material

= standard thickness of the alternate material

= k value per inch of listed material

= r value per inch of listed material

= minimum thickness of listed material

Chimney Requirements

The chimney must be of a sufﬁ cient height to enable an adequate draft and to prevent smoke problems. The minimum draft should be: approx. .048 inches of water or 12 Pa. The chimney must have a minimum opening equivalent to 6.0” or 150 mm. The chimney opening should always be at least the size of the outlet of the insert. The chimney should have an easily accessible soot door.

Chimney Height Requirements

The chimney must extend 3 feet above the level of roof penetration and a minimum of 2 feet higher than any roof surface within 10 feet. Check with your local building ofﬁ cials for additional requirements for your area.

The condition of the chimney and height is very important; we suggest a total minimum height of 15’ (4.5 m), measured from the ﬂ oor level on which the insert is installed.

Chimney

The chimney is essential to the functioning of the wood-burning insert. The chimney draft provides a partial vacuum in the insert. This vacuum removes the smoke from the insert; provides air for the glass air wash, which keeps the glass free of soot; and brings in air for primary and secondary combustion.

The chimney draft is created by the differences in temperature inside and outside the chimney . The higher the temperature within the chimney, the better the draft. It is crucial, therefore, that the chimney is warmed through properly before closing the air control and limiting the combustion in the insert (a brick chimney takes longer to warm through than a steel chimney).

On days where the weather and wind conditions create insufﬁ cient draft inside the chimney, it is even more important to warm up the chimney as quickly as possible. The trick is to quickly get some ﬂ ames going. Split the wood into extra ﬁ ne pieces, use an extra ﬁ relighter, etc.

If the insert has not been used for a long period, it is important to check that the chimney pipe is not blocked.

Chimney Sweeping

To reduce the risk of chimney ﬁ res, the chimney must be cleaned every year. The ﬂ ue duct and the smoke chamber above the bafﬂ e plate inside the insert must be cleaned together with the chimney. If the chimney’s height makes cleaning from above impossible, a cleaning hatch must be installed in the chimney.

Components

Check the Assembly

Before you start using the insert, you must ensure that all parts are ﬁ tted correctly .

• a. Secondary air baffle plate (1) must lie on the rear plate and on the slanting side plates. It must fall into position in the track on the rear plate.

• b. Steel smoke deflector plate (2) is mounted on two hooks. To mount the plate, lift it up and lead to the right until it is hanging on the two hooks.

3D view of the Skamol refractory plates. Skamol is a very heat-resistant and highlyinsulating material made of processed vermiculite. This material is capable of service temperatures up to 1150 C (2101 F). It is however somewhat fragile. Care should be used when handling these pieces and when fueling the insert.

Automatic Control

Brilliant solutions are often simple little details which nevertheless make a huge difference in our everyday lives. HWAM’s patented automatic system consists of a small spring which automatically regulates the supply of air to the combustion chamber. Simple, convenient operation - The automatic system optimizes the combustion for you. All you need to do is to light up the insert and enjoy the ﬂ ames and the heat to the fullest. When you add more ﬁ rewood, the system will automatically readjust the insert to achieve the optimum combustion.

HWAM Automatic

The control arm starting point on a cold insert should be 75° above horizontal. It should feel easy going and bouncy when you push it. The damper plates must be dry and clean and slide together easily. Control bars and slide gates may be lubricated with WD40 (never oil).

Skamol

Skamol refractory plates are delivered in all HWAM wood-burning inserts. We recommend that you treat the Skamol refractory plates with care because it is a delicate material (not covered by the limited warranty). Small cracks may arise in the Skamol from minor water content, especially if the insert is overheated during the ﬁ rst ﬁ re. These cracks do not inﬂ uence the performance of the insert and are not covered by the limited warranty.

Glass

The glass is a heat-resistant ceramic glass that can withstand continuous temperatures up to 1390°F (754°C). This temperature is well above the temperatures at which you will operate your insert. This insert is designed to provide a ﬂ ow of air over the inside of the glass. This air combined with high temperatures helps keep the glass optimally clean. When operating the insert on low for extended periods of time, the glass may become dirty. A short, hot ﬁ re will help clean off much of the normal soot buildup (see section 5: Troubleshooting). In order to keep glass soot free, the moisture content of the wood must be between 15 and 18%.

Smoke Detectors

HWAM strongly recommends installing smoke detectors throughout your home. However, do not install them too close to the insert as the heat can activate them.

Protected Wall Reduced Clearances

Local codes in some areas will allow reduced clearances when the insert is installed adjacent to a protected wall system. Your local building ofﬁ cial must approve the variance. Check your local building codes or with a qualiﬁ ed installer.

Room Ventilation and Combustion Air Supply

Provide for an adequate supply of air for combustion. Proper ventilation is essential when using a solid fuel-burning appliance. The combustion process uses oxygen from inside the dwelling, and if there is not adequate make-up air (such as in newer homes which are well insulated and weather tight), it may be difﬁ cult to obtain an adequate draft in your chimney (caused by a shortage of air in the house). To correct this, it may be necessary to crack a window on the windward side of the dwelling, or provide combustion air to a nearby ﬂ oor/wall vent (fresh air duct), or directly to the insert. Please refer to your local building codes.

Cross Section of Outer Case

Mounting and Connection (Drawing A1-A3)

The HWAM I 30/55 consists of a moveable, external steel case, as well as an inner cassette that is pushed into place and connected once the external steel case is installed.

1. Mounting and Connecting in an Existing Fireplace (Drawings A1-A3).

• Before mounting the insert in a masonry ﬁ replace, the damper in the existing chimney must be removed, and the smoke neck, if any , should be widened so that the connecting pipe from the insert can be connected directly to the stainless steel chimney liner (supplied by others).

• In advance, decide with a specialist or the chimney sweep where a soot door (1) should be placed, so that the chimney can be cleaned from above while the door of the insert remains closed.

Note: The outer case is not load-bearing. Therefore, stainless steel liners exceeding 6’ or 2 m in length must be secured (using hangers) to avoid putting any load on the outer case.

2. Attach Connector Tube to Stainless Steel Flue Liner.

• The inside diameter of the ﬂ ue liner and connector pipe must not be smaller than 6”(153 mm) diameter single wall 24 gauge MSG (0.58 - 0.71 mm) attach the ﬂ ue liner to the connector tube or between all sections using 3 sheet metal screws. Insert inner tube into the ﬂ anged end of the connector tube. Orient the inner tube so the handle is closer to the inside of the connector tube.

Mounting the Connecting Pipe (Drawing A1)

• Trim approximately 3 fireproof batts (supplied by others) 2.0” or 50 mm thick each (4) so that they fit tightly into the chimney space and cut a hole in the center to fit tightly around the tube.

• Locate the assembled connecting pipe and liner in the ﬁ replace so that the front of the insert is in the correct position. Consult the dimensions in drawing A1.

Distance a. 15 3/8”(39.1 cm) - Distance from front edge of the brick hole, if the insert must be ﬂ ush with the brickwork.

Distance b. 15 7/8” (40.4 cm) - Height from the bottom of the insert to bottom of connector tube.

• Now push the three batts up around the stainless steel ﬂ ue liner and press them up into the chimney, thereby achieving a compact and tight-ﬁ tting seal.

3. Installing the Outer Case (Drawing A2)

• Remove inner cassette from outer case.

• Push the outer case (6) into place at the bottom of the ﬁ replace.

• Shim outer case level to the ash lip of the existing ﬁ replace if necessary.

• Level the outer case. Carefully ensure that the outer casing is level and that its front edge is ﬂ ush with the brickwork. The three adjustment screws in the bottom of the casing can be used for ﬁ ne adjustment so that the casing is completely level.

• Screw the connector pipe to the to the outer case from the inside with the help of the self-tapping screws supplied.

• If the gap between the ﬁ replace opening and the outer case is to be closed with brickwork, there must be a minimum distance of 5 mm (3/16”) around the outer case. Any brickwork above the outer casing must therefore be self-supporting. Attach outer case to the existing ﬁ replace with 3 screws (supplied by others) through the bottom of the outside case.

4. Install Inner Cassette (Drawing A3)

• Check the position and operation of the control arm on the automatic air control system.

• Remove the secondary air bafﬂ e (7) from the inner cassette.

• Remove the smoke deﬂ ector plate (8). place 6 mm gasket in groove of the ﬂ ue outlet.

• Slide the inner cassette inside the outer case. Check the alignment with the connector tube. Pull the handle of the inner tube down into the smoke outlet bushing so that the inner tube makes full contact with the gasket.

• Replace the secondary air bafﬂ e (7) and the smoke deﬂ ector plate (8).

5. Seal the Liner and Chimney

• Seal between the stainless steel liner and chimney on top of the batts using heat-proof mortar (5). This can be done through the soot door (1) of the chimney, and should only be done after the insert is assembled. If there is no soot door you must extend the chimney liner to the top of the chimney where it should be sealed with heat-proof mortar.

Optional - Connecting External Supply of Fresh Air The HWAM I 30/55 can be connected to fresh air systems. The fresh air system can be purchased separately.

6. Install the Door Glass

• Begin by installing the handle to the bottom of the door with the screws (6 mm x 12 mm) provided.

• Check that the rubber gaskets are in the proper place in the glass support bracket.

• Slide the glass down into the glass support brackets that are part of the handle. Be sure the painted side of the glass is towards the insert. It may help to tip the glass slightly away from the top of the insert as you slide it in. Make sure the glass is centered on the door handle.

• Next, slide the top support brackets over the top edge of the glass and fasten to the door with the screws provided.

3. Operating the HWAM 3055 Insert

The insert is hot while in operation. Do not touch. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. Use gloves when stoking the ﬁ re.

WARNING! DO NOT USE GASOLINE, LIGHTER FLUID, KEROSENE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS TO START OR FRESHEN A FIRE IN THE INSERT. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE INSERT WHILE IT IS IN USE.

Fueling the Wood-burning Insert

Your HWAM freestanding wood-burning insert is designed for burning dry natural wellseasoned wood only . Wood should be stored in a dry place for at least two years before being used for fuel. Some trees have very high moisture content and it is necessary to thoroughly dry the wood. Cutting and splitting the wood, then stacking it with both ends of the stick exposed, can speed up the drying process. More drying occurs through the end than through the sides even when the wood is split. We recommend that the moisture content of the wood

be between 15-18%. If your wood sizzles, or you see bubbles coming from the end of the logs, the wood is not dry. Green or uncured wood does not work well as fuel, and can cause increased creosote buildup. The value of green wood as a source of heat is limited. Do not overload, use kindling wood, or mill ends for primary fuel as this may cause over-ﬁ ring. Although feeding excessive amounts of fuel to the insert should be avoided, it is important to supply it with sufﬁ cient fuel to maintain a moderately hot ﬁ re (this is particularly important since burning wood produces volatile substances).

Do not store wood within the installation clearances or within the space required for refueling or ash removal.

WARNING! BURNING MATERIALS OTHER THAN NATURAL DRY WELL-SEASONED WOOD MAY SHORTEN THE LIFE OF YOUR INSERT AND POSSIBLY LEAD TO A DANGEROUS OVER-FIRING CONDITION. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE, PARTICLE BOARD, SCRAPS OR PRESSED LOGS USING BONDING AGENTS BECAUSE THEY CAN PRODUCE CONDITIONS, WHICH WILL DETERIORA TE METAL. OVER FIRING THE INSERT MAY CAUSE PAINT DISCOLORATION. A WHITE GLAZE ON THE GLASS IS AN INDICATION OF OVER FIRING.

When you light up for the ﬁ rst time, the insert must be heated gradually . This is very important. Failure to do this may cause cracks to appear in the Skamol or problems with the paint. Do not build the ﬁ re too close to the glass. Keep the wood at least 2” (51 mm) away from the glass. Build a very small ﬁ re with small sticks weighing a total of 1 to 1.5 lbs. Let the ﬁ re go completely out. Then build a slightly larger ﬁ re with up to 2.5 lbs of wood and let the ﬁ re go out again. You may then proceed to ﬁ re the insert at a rate not to exceed 5 lbs per hour. The coating on the insert will cure the ﬁ rst time the insert is ﬁ red. Open the door carefully; otherwise there is a risk that the gaskets will stick to the paint. Ensure adequate ventilation while the odor is present.

WARNING IF YOU TOUCH BURNING WOOD OR ASHES WITH YOUR GLOVE BE SURE TO PLACE THE GLOVE ON A NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE AFTER USE. LIVE EMBERS CAN STICK TO THE GLOVE AND CAUSE COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES TO CATCH FIRE RESULTING IN INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS OF LIFE.

The insert is approved for combustion of wood only. It is recommended to use dry wood with a water content of a maximum of 20%. Stoking a ﬁ re with wet wood results in soot, environmental problems, and less efﬁ cient fuel economy.

Recommended Wood Types

All types of wood, for instance, birch, beech, oak, elm, ash, conifers, and fruit trees can be used as fuel in your insert. The great difference is not in the fuel value, but in the weight of the wood types per cubic meter. Since beech weighs more per cubic meter than, for instance, common spruce, it will take more common spruce to produce the same amount of heat that you would get from a cubic meter of beech.

Banned Fuel Types

Do not stoke a ﬁ re with the following:

• Printed matter

• Plywood, plastic

• Rubber

• Fluid fuels

• Rubbish such as milk cartons, lacquered wood or impregnated wood

• Coal, briquettes and coke

The reason that you should not apply any of the above is that during combustion they develop substances that are health hazardous and harmful to the environment. These substances can also damage your insert and chimney, rendering the product warranty void.

Opening and Closing The Up-Swing Door on Model 04111

Always hold the handle in the middle when opening and closing the door to avoid putting uneven pressure on the door lift mechanism.

Please note that it is important not to let go of the handle when opening and closing the door. The glass could be damaged if the door is allowed to open or close on its own.

Controlling the Combustion

Primary air control (1) is located behind the glass. The automatic air control function is set to maximum when the adjustment bar is set to the right-most position, and minimum when the bar is set to the left-most position.

Starting the Insert

• Do not elevate the ﬁ re on a grate. Build ﬁ re directly on the hearth inside the insert.

• Push the primary air control all the way to the right to set the automatic control to maximum effect.

• Put split kindling, corresponding to two to three pieces of wood (about 4 lbs/2 kg), into the insert.

• Put two ﬁ re lighters in between the kindling. Light them and allow the ﬂ ames to spread slowly. Keep the door ajar until no more condensation forms on the glass (for a maximum of 5 min.). Close the door.

• When the kindling is burning well, push the primary air control into middle position. If the ﬁ re goes out, this has been done too early. Push the primary air control to the right again until the ﬁ re is burning properly. Allow the kindling to burn until ﬂ ames are no longer visible.

Important! The door should be opened only when lighting the insert, adding fuel to the ﬁ re or removing ash.

Refueling the Insert

When there are no more visible yellow flames, and a bed of embers has been created, you can fire again. The layer of embers is suitable when the pieces of wood begin to disintegrate and the bottom of the insert is covered by embers. Put two or three pieces of wood weighing up to 2 lbs/1 kg each into the insert. The automatic control manages the regulation of the air supply.

The temperature can, however, be set up or down by pushing the primary air control either to the right or left, respectively. If the adjustment bar is set farther to the left, combustion is reduced and the burning time is prolonged. By pushing it to the right, combustion is increased and burning time is shortened. Do not add new firewood to the fire until the layer of embers is sufficiently low.

Maximum Amounts of Fuel

The maximum allowed amount of fuel per hour is 5 lbs (2.4 kg). Should these limits be exceeded, the insert will no longer be covered by the factory

guarantee, and it may be damaged due to excessive heat. The insert has been approved for intermittent use.

Insufficient Firing

If the fireproof materials in the combustion chamber are blackened after a heating session, the insert is polluting, and the automatic air flow regulation system is not functioning properly. The bar must therefore be pushed to the right. Also, it may be necessary to burn more wood.

Prolonged Burning Time

Prolong the burning time by burning a few (at least 2) very large pieces of wood whilst at the same time closing the temperature controls down. To extend burning time, the primary air control should be regulated down to the half open position. Shutting the control down further may result in the glass sooting up.

When Burning Is Complete

When the insert is not in use, push the primary air control all the way to the left.

How To Achieve The Best Combustion

• Use clean and dry wood.

• Wet wood results in inefﬁ cient combustion, plenty of smoke, and soot. Furthermore, the heat will dry the wood, not heat up the room.

• The ﬁ re should only be stoked with a little wood at a time.

• Y ou achieve the best combustion by starting up a ﬁ re often and using only a little wood. If you use too much ﬁ rewood, it will take some time before the temperature reaches a level where you achieve a good combustion.

• Make sure there is the right amount of air.

• You should also make sure that there is plenty of air – especially in the beginning so the temperature in the insert climbs quickly. In this way the gasses and particles released during the combustion will be consumed by the ﬁ re. Otherwise they build up soot in the chimney (constituting a chimney ﬁ re risk) or will be released in a non- combusted state into the environment.

We advise against adding ﬁ rewood to your insert and reducing the air supply at night in an attempt to still have some embers left in the morning. If you do so, large amounts of hazardous smoke will be emitted, and your chimney will be exposed to unnecessarily large amounts of soot with the risk of a chimney ﬁ re.

Cleaning

External Cleaning

Cleaning of the insert should only be performed when it is not in use/cool. Daily maintenance is limited to a minimum. It is easiest to vacuum the outside of the insert with a tiny nozzle with soft brushes.

Cleaning the Glass

If it becomes necessary to clean the inside of the glass on model 04111 with the up-swing door, lift the door halfway up and pull out the two top guide latches (1) on each side of the door in order to loosen them from the screws (2). The glass can then be tilted out and cleaned. Once the glass is clean, lift the door again halfway up, pull out the top guide latches on the sides, ease the glass pane into place, and lead the guide latches back into place over the screws.

The inside of the glass pane is best cleaned with a damp paper towel dipped in ash. Afterwards, dry with a clean paper towel.

The outside of the glass can be cleaned with ordinary cleaning solvent used to polish surfaces. We recommend wiping down the glass when the insert is not in use and cool.

Ash Disposal and Removal

CAUTION

Make sure the ﬁ re is out and insert is cold before removing ashes! Be careful when you remove ashes from the insert; there may be embers left as long as 24 hours after the insert was last used. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-ﬁ tting lid and moved outdoors immediately. Other waste should not be placed in this container. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible ﬂ oor, or on the ground well away from all combustible materials, pending ﬁ nal disposal.

If ashes are disposed of by burial in soil, or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be kept in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

WARNING! AVOID SKIN CONTACT WITH ASH!

4. Maintenance

Regularly ensure that the air slit for the pane air rinse function is free of ash and soot particles. Regularly check to make sure that seals in the door are complete and soft. If not, they should be replaced. Use only original spare parts. The insert should be thoroughly cleaned once a year. Ash and soot must be removed from the combustion chamber. If necessary, lubricate the door lift mechanism with copper grease.

Service Inspection

At least once every 2 years, the insert should receive a thorough, preventative service inspection. Among other things, the service inspection covers:

• A thorough cleaning of the insert.

• Inspection of the door lift mechanism and lubrication with copper grease if necessary.

• Checking the spring in the automatic unit and replace if necessary.

• Checking gaskets. Replace gaskets if they are not intact or are no longer soft.

• Inspection of springs for chain drive. Check to ensure that the door closes tightly all the way around.

• Inspection/possible replacement of Skamol refractory material.

The inspection must be performed by a qualiﬁ ed professional. Use only original HWAM replacement parts

How to remove the inner cassette

Remove the secondary air bafﬂ e, the Skamol on the ﬂ oor of the unit and the smoke deﬂ ector plate. Remove the two screws are under the skamol that attach the inner cassette to the outer case. that Use the handle to push the sliding tube (3) up into the ﬂ ue connector. You will now be able to slide the inner cassette forward. Reverse the process to re-install the inner cassette. Be certain to pull the sliding tube down so that it seats properly in the ﬂ ue collar. Reinsert the two screws that you removed to secure the inner cassette to the outer case.

WARNING - FAILURE TO SEAT THE SLIDING TUBE MAY RESULT IN FLUE GASES ENTERING THE ROOM

Seasonal Cleaning

IMPORTANT

Before chimney sweeping can be performed, the primary air control must be set all the way to the left to prevent soot and ash from entering the automatic control.

Remove the secondary air bafﬂ e (1). Push the plate forward and lift it up a bit to the side. Tilt one side downward. The plate is now free and can be removed from the combustion chamber. Lift the steel smoke deﬂ ector plate (2) off of the hooks so that it can be removed.

Skamol Refractory

The efﬁ cient, but porous Skamol refractory in the combustion chamber may, in time, be worn and damaged. Cracks in the Skamol will not affect the operation of the insert. However, the Skamol should be replaced when, due to wear and tear, it has been reduced to less than half its original thickness.

Automatic Control System

The control arm starting point on a cold insert is about 75° above horizontal. It should feel easy going and bouncy when you push it. The damper plates must be dry and clean and slide together unhindered. Control bars and slide gates may be lubricated with WD40 (never oil).

Adjust the Lifting Door for Model 04111

The door lift mechanism consists of a chain pull placed on either side of the insert and a spring. If the door opens with difficulty, you may correct this by greasing the chain wheel boxes and door hinges (1) with copper grease (we recommend a grease that can withstand temperatures of up to 1,100º C). You should do this once every 2 years. If the door still opens and closes too stiffly, the spring on the door lift mechanism can be loosened slightly. If the door slides too easily, the spring has loosened. The spring can be loosened or tightened as follows:

Slide the inner cassette out of the outer case. Make sure the door of the combustion chamber (3) is closed. Attach the tightening tool (4) supplied with the insert to the toothed wheel (5). To tighten the spring so that the door closes more slowly (or can remain fully open), turn the toothed wheel (5) clockwise slightly. This can be done by turning the tightening tool (4) counter-clockwise. To loosen the spring so that the door closes faster (or can no longer remain fully open), lift the locking pawl (6) and turn the toothed wheel (5) counter-clockwise slightly. This can be done by turning the tightening tool (4) clockwise. IMPORTANT! Keep a firm grip on the handle of the tightening tool (4) when lifting the locking pawl as considerable weight and force are transferred when it is lifted.

After each adjustment, check to see whether the desired effect has been achieved. If not, repeat the process. If you have loosened the spring, we recommend holding the door handle when checking the effect for the first time to ensure that the spring has not become so loose that the door closes too fast with the risk of damaging the glass.

Please Note: You should always have a professional adjust, grease and repair these parts.

Surface

The surface does not normally require any treatment. Any damage to the coating may be repaired using HWAM spray paint.

Gaskets

The insert is equipped with ceramic gaskets to ensure the tightness of the doors and the glass. These gaskets are wearing parts and must be changed from time to time. Note the position of and remove worn gaskets. Remove the protective strip from the back of the new gaskets and place the new gasket in the same position as the worn one.

Guarantee

The guarantee does not cover damage due to insufficient maintenance!

WARNING! DO NOT OPERATE WOOD-BURNING INSERT WITHOUT BAFFLE PLATES PROPERLY INSTALLED OR WARRANTY WILL BE VOID.

WARNING! DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS. ALWAYS USE LISTED SPARE PARTS FROM HWAM A/S.

Glass Cleaning

A glass cleaner designed for wood-burning inserts is recommended for cleaning the glass. The glass can also be cleaned by dipping a moist cloth or old newspaper in the cold ashes and use this to clean the glass. Wipe with a dry cloth.

• Do not use abrasive cleaners.

• Do not let the door gasket get wet. Do not abuse the glass by striking or slamming the door shut.

• Do not operate the insert with broken glass. If the glass breaks then replace it promptly. Use only replacement gaskets listed for the door, glass and ash drawer.

• Do not clean the glass when hot.

Replacing Door Glass

Use only HWAM ceramic replacement glass 4 mm in thickness. The use of any other glass is prohibited. Do not remove the door before installing new glass. When replacing the glass all gaskets must be installed correctly. Make note of the gasket locations as you take the door apart. Remove any leftover pieces of broken glass. Replace any damaged or worn gaskets. Follow the procedure on page 14 for installing the glass.

Creosote Formation and the 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 slow-burning ﬁ re. As a result, creosote residue accumulates in the ﬂ ue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot and dangerous ﬁ re.

The chimney and/or the stainless steel chimney liner should be inspected at least once every two months during the heating season to determine if soot creosote and ash build-up have occurred. If creosote has accumulated it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney ﬁ re.

5. Troubleshooting

High Rate of Combustion

• A seal in the door is not completely tight. Replace the seal.

• If the draught is too strong inside the chimney, it may be necessary to set the primary

air control to minimum, i.e., to the left.

Smoke in the Room When Opening Door

• The damper at the top of the chimney may be closed. Open the damper. Open the air

control arm on the front of the insert.

• Insufﬁ cient chimney draft - check if the chimney has the right height compared to the

surroundings, or contact chimney sweep.

• Do not open the insert door when there are still ﬂ ames visible.

• Clean out door leaking or dislodged - replace or reﬁ t.

• Check if the chimney has the right dimension.

• Check if the connector pipe or chimney is blocked.

• Wood with too high moisture content.

The Wood Burns Too Fast

• Are the air controls adjusted correctly according to the instructions?

• Is the smoke deﬂ ector plate placed correctly?

Soot On The Glass

• The wood is too damp. Only use wood stored for at least 12 months under cover and

with a moisture level not exceeding 20%.

• The door’s seals may not be tight.

• Insufﬁ cient secondary air introduced to the pane-ﬂ ushing system - push the adjustment

bar further to the right until the glass is burned clean.

• Intermittent ﬁ ring - allow the insert to heat through properly. Is the primary air control

adjusted according to the instructions?

Glass Has White Haze. This Can Be Caused By Faulty Operation, Such As:

• Glass not cleaned sufﬁ ciently .

• Burning milk cartons, newspaper advertising material, etc.

• Burning unapproved fuels, such as coal and the like, which creates too much heat.

• Burning impregnated wood or pressed wallboard.

• Excess chimney draft.

• Burning with door open.

If the glass turns white or opaque and cannot be immediately cleaned, it may have been permanently damaged. The glass in the wood-burning insert is a special ceramic glass that can withstand very high temperatures. At high temperatures, however, the glass is very sensitive to chemicals. Burning advertising materials, newspapers, impregnated wood, etc. can ruin the glass.

Should this occur, a glass set is available which contains glass, sealing compound and an installation guide.

Excessive creosote build-up in chimney - this is a symptom of poor combustion. It may be caused by wet wood or insufﬁ cient draft.

The insert’s surface turns gray - overheating. The insert does not heat - the wood is not dry. The combustion energy is being used to dry

the wood. If problems occur that you cannot ﬁ x yourself, please consult your wood-burning insert dealer.

Optional - External Combustion Air System.

HWAM does not recommend the use of an external combustion air system in most cases. It is possible that these systems can experience a low pressure condition where the duct exits the house at the weather hood. This might happen in some circumstances on a windy day for example. If it does, there is the possibility that the ﬂ ow in the duct may be reversed allowing heat and combustion products to enter. If the house is extremely tight and cannot provide enough combustion air we recommend a mechanically powered, balanced, make up air system. These systems also provide health beneﬁ ts and improve the functioning of all appliances requiring ventilation or combustion air. An HVAC design professional should design and install such a system. However some jurisdictions require the use of external combustion air. In this case the HW AM I 30/55 can be connected to an external combustion air system. The fresh air system can be purchased separately. The air system may be mounted vertically or horizontally depending on the best route for the supply duct. The supply duct must take air from outside the building and it may not terminate in an attic space. The exterior termination of the duct must be ﬁ tted with a hood containing a rodent screen. This is provided in the optional kit. Use a 4” diameter duct for runs up to 8 feet. Use a 6” diameter duct for longer runs. Also follow these rules:

• The entry point for the air must be lower than the ﬁ rebox but high enough to avoid being blocked by snow , leaves or other debris.

• Never take air from a garage or any area where combustible ﬂ uids or gases may be

stored.

• The duct run should be as short and straight as possible.

• Never terminate the duct in an attic space.

Horizontal Connection
