PACIFIC ENERGY FIREPLACE PRODUCTS

CAUTION: Never use gasoline, gasoline type 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.

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 ﬁres and the importance of following the steps outlined "In Case of Chimney Fire".

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. 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 small 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 signicantly to creosote formation as the excess moisture that is boiled off cools the re, making it difcult 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. 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.

100000087

ALDERLEA T6-LE_260319-28

Chimney Fires

The dangerous side effect of excessive creosote buildup is a chimney re. This causes much higher than normal temperatures in the chimney and on its exterior surfaces. Temperatures inside the chimney can exceed 2000°F (1100°C). Ignition of nearby or touching combustible material is more likely during a chimney re. Proper clearances are critical to prevent damage 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

To Avoid a Chimney Fire

1. Burn wood cleanly. Do not burn wet wood or turn down the unit too quickly after loading.

2. Do not let creosote build up to a point where a chimney re is possible.

3. Do not have res in the heater that may ignite chimney res. These are excessively hot res, such as when burning household trash, cardboard, Christmas tree limbs, or even ordinary fuel wood; (eg. with a full load on a hot bed of coals and with the air inlet wide open for more time than is needed to completely char a fresh fuel load.)

4. The Chimney and connector pipe should be inspected /cleaned periodically.

In Case 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 stove.

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 must be cleaned and checked for stress and cracks before starting another re. Also check combustibles around the chimney and the roof.

• The services of a competent or certied installer, (certied by the Wood Energy Technical Training program (WETT) - in Canada, Hearth Education Foundation (HEARTH) - in U.S.A.,) are strongly recommended.

Curing of the Paint Finish

To acheive the best nish, the paint on your stove must be baked on. When burning your stove 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.

WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a ﬁre. Do not burn garbage, or ﬂammable ﬂuids such as gasoline, naptha, or engine oil.

ALDERLEA T6-LE_260319-28

100000087

Operation

CAUTION: Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns.

WARNING: Always keep loading door closed when burning. This heater is not designed for open door burning.

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 ﬁre bricks. Replace broken or missing bricks. Failure to do so may create a hazardous condition.

Wood Selection

This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efciency and lower emissions generally result when burning air-dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods.

Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months or more. Wet or undried wood will cause the ﬁre to smoulder and produce large amounts of smoke and creosote. Wet wood also produces very little heat and tends to go out often. Wood should be stored under cover away from open ﬂame or heat sources.

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

• Construction or demolition debris • Materials containing asbestos

• Waste petroleum products, paints, paint thinners, or asphalt products

* 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.

Do not burn anything but wood. Other fuels, eg. charcoal, can produce large amounts of carbon monoxide, a tasteless, odorless gas that can kill. Under no circumstances should you attempt to barbecue in this heater.

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.

• Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or particleboard.

How to Test Your Wood

Add a large piece of wood to the stove when it has a good large 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

100000087

ALDERLEA T6-LE_260319-28

Lighting a re

WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a ﬁre.

1. Adjust air control to “High” position(all the way to the left) 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 leave the door ajar approximately 1/2"(13mm) - 1"(25mm) until the wood kindling is fully engulfed in ame.

4. After the kindling is fully engulfed add a few small logs. Close door.

5. Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and wood has charred.

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 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 panel makes nding the desired setting for your application 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, and give the re time to brighten. Open the door slowly, this will prevent back pufng.

3. Use wood of different shape, diameter and length (up to 18"(457mm)). Load your wood endwise 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 air control for overnight burn.

• Burn wood only, dry and well seasoned. The denser or heavier the wood when dry, the greater its heat value. This is why hardwoods are generally preferred. Green or wet wood will cause a rapid buildup of creosote. If you feel it is necessary to burn wet or unseasoned wood, do so only with the air inlet set open enough to maintain a good strong re and fairly high chimney temperatures. Do not attempt to burn overnight using green wood or wet wood. Wet wood can cause up to 25% drop in heater output, as well as contributing signicantly to creosote buildup.

DO NOT OVER FIRE THIS HEATER: Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specications can result in permanent damage to the heater and chimney. A glowing red, top or vent pipe are indications of over ring. Failure to rectify an over ring condition can be hazardous and may void the manufacturer's warranty.

ALDERLEA T6-LE_260319-28

100000087

Restarting After Extended or Overnight Burns

1. Open door and rake hot embers towards the front of the heater. Add a couple of dry, split logs on top of embers, close door.

2. Adjust air control to high and in just a few minutes, logs should begin burning.

3. After wood has charred, reset air control to desired setting.

4. To achieve maximum ring rate, set control to high "H". Do not use this setting other than for starting or preheating fresh fuel loads.

Proper Draft

1. 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.

2. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. An uncontrollable burn or a glowing red stove part or chimney indicates excessive draft.

3. Inadequate draft may cause back pufng into the room and plugging of the chimney. Smoke leaking into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints indicates inadequate draft.

Remember the correct air inlet setting is affected by variables such as type of wood, outside temperature, chimney size and weather conditions.

Ash Removal

Caution: Ashes are to be removed only when the heater is cold. Whenever ashes get 3"(76mm) to 4"(102mm) deep in your rebox, and when re has burned down and cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1" (25 mm) deep on the rebox bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.

Ash Clean out system:

The ash dump handle is located under the ash lip on the left hand side. To operate ash dump, pull handle out 1/2"(13mm) and turn clockwise. This will unlock the ash dump and allow it to open. Hold handle open while pulling ashes into the opening. Avoid large embers as these still contain heat value. Release handle and push in to lock. Ensure ash dump door is properly engaged. Fill the cavity with the remaining ash level with the rebox oor. Lift and pull out ashpan and discard ashes into metal container. Replace ashpan and ensure it is seated properly.

Do not burn with ash dump door open. Doing so will create a hazardous condition. Always leave about 1"(25mm) of ash when cleaning.

Disposal of Ashes

Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed 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.

Maintenance

WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a ﬁre. Do not burn garbage, or ﬂammable ﬂuids such as gasoline, naptha, or engine oil.

WARNING: ONLY USE MATERIALS SUPPLIED BY MANUFACTURER WHEN DOING MAINTENANCE OR REPLACEMENTS.

1. If glass becomes darkened through slow burning or poor wood, it can readily be cleaned with replace glass cleaner when stove 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 difcult to remove is a result of wet and green wood and too slow a burning rate. This heavy deposit is building up at least as quickly in the chimney.

2. DOOR GASKETS - The gasket used by Pacic Energy (1/2"(13mm) medium density berglass 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. Follow the instructions included in the kit, obtainable from your nearest Pacic Energy dealer.

3. DOOR GLASS - 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 stove. Replacement glass can be obtained from your dealer. Use 20-1/8"(511mm) x 11-7/8"(302mm) x 5 mm. Ceramic glass only. Do not substitute with any other type.

• To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws and remove clamps and frame, noting position for re-assembly. Remove all particles of glass . Be careful as they are very sharp. Install new glass complete with gasket. Replace frame, clamps and screws.

CAUTION:

- do not overtighten, tighten screws very carefully

- do not clean glass when hot

- do not use abrasive cleaners on glass

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. If the plated door requires cleaning, use mild soap and water only. Use of abrasive cleaners will void warranty.

7. Establish a routine for the fuel, woodburning and ring technique. Check daily for creosote buildup until experience shows how often you need to clean to be safe.

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. When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which combine with expelled
