Safety and
Maintenance
NOTE: WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT SMOKE AND
CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS BE INSTALLED IN
THE AREA WHERE THE HEATER IS TO BE INSTALLED.
If smoke detectors have been previously installed, you may
notice that they are operating more frequently. This may be
due to curing of stove paint or fumes caused by accidentally
leaving the re door open. Do not disconnect the detectors.
1. Burn only, dry and well seasoned cord wood. The
denser or heavier the wood when dry, the greater its heat
value. This is why hardwoods are generally preferred.
Green or wet wood should not be used, it will reduce heat
output, as well as, contribute signicantly to creosote
buildup.
WARNING: NEvER USE ChEMICALS OR ANy OThER
vOLATILE LIqUID TO START A FIRE. DO NOT BURN
GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCh AS
GASOLINE, NAPhThA, OR ENGINE OIL. WE STRONGLy
RECOMMEND ThAT SMOkE DETECTORS BE
INSTALLED.
2. Maintain a 1"(25mm) minimum ash base for best results.
The area where boost combustion air enters the rebox
must be kept clear of excessive ash buildup which will
block air ow. This area is at the front of the rebox.
Remove ashes if excess buildup occurs. Embers may roll
out of the rebox door opening and create a re hazard.
6. DOOR GLASS - Replacement glass can be obtained
from your dealer. Use 18”(457mm) x 10-1/4”(260mm) x
5 mm ceramic glass only.
WARNING: DO NOT SUBSTITUTE GLASS WITh ANy
OThER TyPE MATERIAL OThER ThAN CERAMIC
GLASS
WARNING: DO NOT SLAM LOADING DOOR OR
OThERWISE IMPACT GLASS. WhEN CLOSING DOOR,
MAkE SURE ThAT NO LOGS PROTRUDE TO IMPACT
ThE GLASS. IF ThE GLASS GETS CRACkED OR
BROkEN, IT MUST BE REPLACED BEFORE USING
ThE FIREPLACE.
WARNING: OvER FIRING ThE APPLIANCE WILL
ShORTEN ThE LIFE OF ThE PRODUCT. FAILURE
TO RECTIFy AN OvER FIRING CONDITION CAN BE
hAZARDOUS AND MAy vOID ThE MANUFACTURER'S
WARRANTy.
To remove broken glass,remove the door gasket and clean out
the screw heads. Remove the screws that hold the retainers
and remove the retainers, noting position for re-assembly.
Remove all particles of glass . Be careful as they are very
sharp. Install new glass complete with gasket. Replace
retainers, screws and gasket.
CAUTION:
- DO NOT OvERTIGhTEN - TIGhTEN SCREWS hAND
TIGhT
- DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WhEN hOT
- DO NOT USE ABRASIvE CLEANERS ON GLASS
3. If glass becomes darkened through slow burning or poor
wood, it can be cleaned with replace glass cleaner
when the replace is cold. Never scrape with an object
that might scratch the glass. The type and amount of
deposit on the glass is a good indication of the ue pipe
and chimney buildup. A light brown dusty deposit that is
easily wiped off usually indicates good combustion and
dry, well-seasoned wood and therefore relatively clean
pipes and chimney. On the other hand, a black greasy
deposit that is difcult to remove is a result of wet and
green wood and too slow a burning rate. This heavy
deposit is building up as quickly in the chimney.
4. Establish a routine for the fuel, wood burning and
ring technique. Check daily for creosote buildup until
experience shows how often you need to clean to be safe.
WARNING: ONLy USE MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS
SUPPLIED OR SPECIFIED By MANUFACTURER WhEN
DOING MAINTENANCE OR REPLACEMENTS. DO NOT
USE A FIREPLACE INSERT OR OThER PRODUCTS NOT
SPECIFIED FOR USE WITh ThIS FIREPLACE.
5. DOOR GASKETS - The gasket used by Pacic Energy
(3/4"(19mm) round high density breglass rope) requires
only light pressure to seal. This will prolong seal life. It
is important that the door seal be maintained in good
condition. Periodically inspect seals and replace if
necessary with WODC.NEODGKIT.
7. Do not store wood within heater installation clearances, or
within the space required for fuel loading and ash removal.
Keep the area around the heater clean and free of loose
combustibles, furniture, newspapers, etc.
8. Be aware that the hotter the re, the less creosote is
deposited. Weekly cleaning may be necessary in mild
weather, even though monthly cleaning is usually enough
in the coldest months when burning rates are higher.
9. Instruct all members of your family on the safe operation
of the heater. Ensure they have enough knowledge of the
entire system if they are expected to operate it. Stress the
section on chimney res and the importance of following
the steps outlined "In Case of Chimney Fire".
10. Inspect and clean your chimney system at the beginning
of the burning season before your rst re and at least
every two months during the burning season. Inspect
the interior and exterior of the pipe for defects and/or
damage. Remove and inspect the rain cap. Refer to the
chimney system manufacturer's installation instructions
for the procedure to remove and or replace any necessary
components to the chimney system.
11. Maintain a distance of 48"(1.22m) to all combustible
materials in the room unless otherwise specidifed.

Chimney Smoke and Creosote
Formation
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic
vapours, which combine with expelled moisture to form
creosote. The creosote vapours condense in the relatively
cool chimney ue of a slow burning re. As a result, creosote
residue accumulates on the ue lining. When ignited, this
creosote makes an extremely hot re. The chimney connector
and chimney should be inspected periodically (at least once
every two months) during the heating season to determine if
a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has accumulated
(3 mm. or more), it should be removed to reduce the risk of
a chimney re.
1. The highest smoke densities and emissions occur when
a large amount of wood is added to a bed of hot coals
and the air inlet is closed. The heated wood generates
smoke, but without ample air, the smoke cannot burn.
Smoke-free, clean burning requires smaller fuel loads,
two or three logs at a time or 1/4 to 1/2 of fuel load and
leaving the air inlet relatively wide open, especially during
the rst 10 to 30 minutes after each loading, when most
of the smoke generating reactions are occurring. After 30
minutes or so, the air inlet can be turned down substantially
without excessive smoke generation. Wood coals create
very little creosote-producing smoke.
2. The cooler the surface over which the wood smoke is
passing, the more creosote will be condensed. Wet
or green wood contributes signicantly to creosote
formation as the excess moisture that is boiled off cools
the re, making it difcult for the tars and gases to ignite,
thus creating dense smoke and poor combustion. This
moisture-laden smoke cools the chimney, compounding
the problem by offering the smoke the ideal place to
condense.
In summary, a certain amount of creosote is inevitable
and must be lived with. Regular inspection and cleaning
is the solution. The use of dry, seasoned wood and ample
combustion air will help to minimize annoying smoke
emissions and creosote buildup.
Chimney Fires
In the event of a Chimney Fire
1. Prepare to evacuate to ensure everyone's safety. Have
a well understood plan of action for evacuation. Have a
place outside where everyone is to meet.
2. Close air inlet on replace.
3. Call local re department. Have a re extinguisher handy.
Contact your local municipal or provincial re authority
for further information on how to handle a chimney re.
It is most important that you have a clearly understood
plan on how to handle a chimney re.
4. After the chimney re is out, the chimney system must be
cleaned and checked for damage before starting another
re. Have the system inspected by a certied installer
or chimney sweep. Also check combustibles around the
chimney and the roof.
Preventing a Chimney Fire
There are three things you can do to prevent chimney res:
1. Do not let creosote build up to a point where a chimney
re is possible.
2. Do not have res in the heater that may ignite chimney
res. These are very hot res, such as when burning
household trash, cardboard, Christmas tree limbs, or
even ordinary fuel wood; (e.g.. with a full load on a hot
bed of coals and with the air control open for long period
of time.)
3 Regular inspections and cleaning.
- The services of a competent or certied installer, (certied
by the Wood Energy Technical Training program (WETT) - in
Canada, Hearth Education Foundation (HEARTH) - in U.S.A.,)
are strongly recommended.
Wood Selection
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher
efciency and lower emissions generally result when burning
air-dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods
or to green or freshly cut hardwoods.
The result of excessive creosote buildup is a chimney re.
Chimney res are dangerous. Temperatures inside the
chimney can exceed 2000° F(1093˚C). This causes much
higher than normal temperatures on its exterior surfaces.
Thus ignition of nearby or touching combustible material is
more likely during a chimney re. Proper clearances are
critical during such a re.
Chimney res are easy to detect; they usually involve one
or more of the following:
-Flames and sparks shooting out of the top of the chimney
-A roaring sound
-Vibration of the chimney
5055.7618_210916-32
Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months
or more. Wet or undried wood will cause the re to smoulder
and produce large amounts of creosote. Wet wood also
produces very little heat and tends to go out often.
Do not burn anything but wood. Other fuels, eg. charcoal,
can produce large amounts of carbon monoxide, a tasteless,
odourless gas that can kill. Under no circumstances should
you attempt to barbecue in this heater.
how to Test your Wood
Add a large piece of wood to the replace when it has a large
hot bed of coals. It is dry if it is burning on more than one
side within one minute. It is damp if it turns black and lights
within three minutes. If it sizzles, hisses and blackens without
igniting in ve minutes it is soaked and should not be burnt.

CAUTION: Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern fuel,
kerosene, charcoal lighter uid or similar liquids to start or
"freshen up" a re in this heater. Keep all such liquids well
away from the heater while it is in use.
DO NOT BURN :
-Salt water wood * -Treated wood
-Wet or green wood -Coal/charcoal
-Garbage* -Solvents
-Lawn clippings/yard waste -Unseasoned wood
-Railroad ties -Manure or animal remains
-Materials containing rubber, including tires
-Materials containing plastic
-Waste petroleum products, paints or paint
thinners, or asphalt products
-Materials containing asbestos
-Construction or demolition debris
-Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or particleboard.
* These materials contain chlorides which will rapidly
destroy metal surfaces and void warranty.
Burning these materials may result in the release of toxic
fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.
The prohibition against burning these materials does not
prohibit the use of re starters made from paper, cardboard,
saw dust, wax and similar substances for the purpose of
starting a re in an affected wood heater.
Your PACIFIC ENERGY heater is designed for maximum
overall efciency at a moderate ring rate. Over ring is
hazardous and a waste of fuel. Too slow a burn contributes
to creosote buildup and lowers combustion efciency.
NOTE: Left and Right as referred to in this manual are
considered your left and right when facing the front of the
replace.
Lighting a Fire
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile
liquid to start a re.
1. Adjust the air control located under the ashshelf to
"High"(Full Left) position and open door.
2. Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater
and crisscross with several pieces of dry kindling. Add
a few small pieces of dry wood on top.
3. Ignite the paper and close the door. (Depending on length
of chimney installation, you may need to leave door open
approximately 1/2"(13mm) until kindling is fully ignited.)
DO NOT LEAvE FIREPLACE UNATTENDED WhILE
DOOR IS OPEN.
4. After the re has established itself, open the door and
add a few small logs. Close door.
5. Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and
wood has charred.
Curing of the Paint Finish/Insulation
To achieve the best nish, the paint on your replace must
be baked on. When burning your replace for the rst 2-3
times it is very important that the room be well ventilated.
Open all windows and doors. Smoke and fumes caused by
the curing process may cause discomfort to some individuals.
Normal Operation
WARNING: This wood heater has a manufacturer-set
minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is
against federal regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent
with the operating instructions in this manual.
1. Set the air control to a desired setting. If smoke pours
down across the glass (waterfall effect) this indicates you
have shut the control down too soon or you are using too
low a setting. The wide range control makes nding the
desired setting easy. As every home's heating needs vary,
(ie. insulation, windows, climate, etc.) the proper setting
can only be found by trial and error and should be noted
for future burns.
2. To refuel, adjust air control to "High"(Full Left) position,
and give the re time to brighten. Open the door slowly,
this will prevent back pufng.
3. Use wood of different shape, diameter and length
(recommended 18”(457mm)). Load your wood and try
to place the logs so that the air can ow between them.
Always use dry wood.
4. Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that would
be hazardous when opening the door.
5. For extended or overnight burns, unsplit logs are preferred.
Remember to char the wood completely on maximum
setting before adjusting the air control for an overnight
burn.
WARNING: Always keep the loading door closed when
burning. This heater is not designed for open door
burning. If unit is operated with the door open, gases
and ame may be drawn out of the replace opening
creating risks of both re and smoke.
WARNING: No alteration or modification of the
combustion air control assembly is permitted. Any
tampering will void warranty and could be very hazardous.
WARNING: Do not use grates or andirons to elevate the
fuel. Burn directly on the re bricks. Replace broken or
missing bricks. Failure to do so may create a hazardous
condition.

5055.7618_210916-32
Restarting After Extended or Overnight
Burns
1. Open door and rake any hot embers towards the front of
the heater. Add a couple of dry, split logs on top of the
embers, close the door.
2. Adjust the air control to the "High" position (all the way
to the left) and in just a few minutes, logs should begin
burning.
3. After the wood has charred, reset the air control to the
desired setting.
4. To achieve the maximum ring rate, set the air control
to high. Do not use this setting other than for starting or
preheating fresh fuel loads.
Overring
Over ring can be caused by the following; operating the
unit with the door open, damage to door gaskets allowing
excess air to enter the rebox, the use of kiln dried lumber,
mill ends or paper waste and prolonged or continual use on
a high burn setting.
heat Output Calculation
Seasoned wood has approximately 7500 BTU's per pound.
Disposal of Ashes
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight tting
lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed outside
on a non-combustible oor or on the ground, well away from
all combustible materials, pending nal disposal. If the ashes
are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed,
they should be retained in closed container until all cinders
have thoroughly cooled. Other waste should not be placed
in this container.
Blower Operation
The blowers are wired with a thermo switch that will turn on
the blower automatically once the replace has reached an
appropriate operating temperature.
The blowers must be wired to a wall switch or fan speed
controller for manual control(not included). If a blower should
ever need to be replaced, power to the blowers can be shut
off at the switch during replacement.
Bafe Removal
DO NOT OPERATE WITh BAFFLE ASSEMBLy OR
INSULATION REMOvED.
The calculation is as follows:
Amount of wood in lbs. X 7500BTU’s
Burn rate in Hrs.
Experience will give you the right settings for proper
combustion and efcient burning. Remember the correct air
inlet setting is affected by variables such as type of wood,
outside temperature, chimney size and weather conditions.
With practice, you will become procient in operating your
heater and will obtain the performance for which it was
designed.
X .8(80% Avg. Eciency)
Proper Draft
• Draft is the force which 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 uncontrollable burn or a glowing red
replace part or chimney indicates excessive draft.
• Inadequate draft may cause back pufng into the room
and plugging of the chimney. Smoke leaking into the
room through appliance and chimney connector joints
indicates inadequate draft.
Ash Removal
Caution: Ashes are to be removed only when the heater
is cold. Whenever ashes get 3(76mm) to 4(102mm) inches
deep in your rebox, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash
bed approximately 1" (25 mm) deep on the rebox bottom
to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.
WARNING: AFTER yOU REMOvE ThE BAFFLE,
ALWAyS COvER ThE TOP OF ThE BAFFLE AIR
TUBE LOCATED IN ThE REAR OF ThE FIREBOx.
ThIS PREvENTS DEBRIS FALLING DOWN ThE
TUBE. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN POOR
OPERATION AND POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO FIREPLACE
COMPONENTS.
BAFFLE
TUBE
Remove retaining pin located just beneath the bafe at the
rear inside top of the rebox. Lift bafe up and pull forward
to disconnect from the supply tube. Slide the bale to one
side and then tilt bafe sideways to drop down and remove
from rebox. To re-install the bafe, perform the removal
steps in the reverse order. Ensure that the two side pieces
of insulation are set tight against the bafe. If the insulation
is damaged during removal, it should be replaced.
Secondary Air Box Cleaning
5055.7618_210916-32
1. The secondary air box access is located on the bottom
rear of the replace and can be accessed for cleaning by
removing the two bottom center bricks inside the replace
Fig. #1. This will expose the access cover.

FP25.BODYA
2. Remove the screws securing the access cover to the
rebox bottom. Inspect airbox for debris. If debris is
present, carefully use a vacum to suck debris through
the hole in the rebox bottom.
3. Replace the cover plate and the bricks.
Fig. # 1
2. With a 3/8” wrench, loosen the two bolts securing the
blower mounting bracket to the unit. Fig. #2
3. Disconnect the two wires leading to the blower motor.
4. Lift the blower mounting bracket up and pull the top out
rst and then lift the blower up and out to remove from the
bolts.If replacing the right side blower, then disconnect
the two wires leading to the thermo-switch at this time as
well.
COVER
Glass Cleaning
If glass becomes darkened due to poor burning conditions,
it can be cleaned with replace/ceramic glass cleaner when
the replace is cold. Never scrape with an object that might
scratch the glass. The type and amount of deposit on the
glass is a good indication of ue pipe and chimney buildup.
A light brown dusty deposit that is easily wiped off usually
indicates good combustion and dry, well-seasoned wood and
therefore relatively clean pipes and chimney. On the other
hand, a black greasy deposit that is difcult to remove is a
result of green wood or poor draft. NOTE: This heavy deposit
is building up just as quickly in the chimney.
Blower Replacement
5. Remove the three bolts securing the blower to the mount-
ing bracket and replace the blower. Fig. #3
Fig. # 3
BOLTS
1. Remove the surround front by lifting and pulling away
from the unit. Remove the four screws securing the back
surround to the brackets and set the surround aside care-
fully to avoid damage.

2) Remove the screws securing the replace to the pallet(4).
3) Remove from pallet bottom.
Warning: Under no circumstances is this heater to be installed
in a makeshift or "temporary" manner. It may be red only
after the following conditions have been met.
- DO NOT CONNECT ThIS UNIT TO A ChIMNEy FLUE
SERvING ANOThER APPLIANCE.
- WARNING:DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM.
(MANUFACTURED OR MOBILE hOME ONLy)
- The services of a competent or certied installer, (certied
by the Wood Energy Technical Training program (WETT)
- in Canada, Hearth Education Foundation (HEARTH) - in
U.S.A.,) are strongly recommended.
Locating The FP25 Fireplace
The best location to install your replace is determined by
considering the location of windows, doors, and the trafc
ow in the room where the FP25 Fireplace is located,
allowing space in front of the unit for the hearth extension
and the mantel, and taking into consideration the location
of the chimney. Ideally, you should choose a location
where the chimney will pass through the house without
cutting oor or roof joists.
Check the adequacy of the oor by rst estimating the
weight of the replace system(approx. 500lbs(227Kg)).
Next measure the area the replace will occupy. Note the
oor construction and consult your local building code to
determine if any additional support is needed. In most
cases, no additional oor support is needed for the FP25
replace.

1. Position replace and oor protection in accordance
with the clearances as stated on the label and in these
installation instructions.
2. Mark the position for the hole for the chimney in the
ceiling and roof by using a string and plumb-bob.
3. Check that the intended location will not interfere with
oor joists, ceiling joists or rafters before proceeding
further.
The FP25 replace may be installed directly on a
combustible oor or on a raised base. A minimum of
84"(2.13m) measured from the base of the appliance or
38 3/4"(984mm) from the top of the unit to the ceiling is
required.
The FP25 replace may not be installed in a factory built
replace unless tested with the replace.
Wind direction and magnitude can play a factor in the
chimney performance. Therefore the chimney outlet
position is important when locating the replace
We recommend, whenever possible, that the chimney
should:
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof.
• Be installed as far as possible from roof offsets,
trees or any other obstructions that may cause wind
turbulence or back drafts in the chimney.
• Contain the fewest number of offsets (elbows)
possible.
