Safety
CAUTION: Never use 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 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. 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
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

SUPER INSERT LE 210619-28
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.
• We recommend the services of professionals who are certied by a “Qualied agency”;such as
NFI (National Fireplace Institute®) in the United States,
CSIA (Chimney Safety Institute of America) in the United States and Canada,
WETT (Wood Energy Technology Transfer) in Canada or
APC (Association des Professionnels du Chauffage) in Quebec
Curing of the Paint Finish
To achieve the best nish, the paint on your stove must be baked on. When burning your stove for the rst
few 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. See Hang Tag from Forrest
Paint.
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.

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 efciency 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, odourless 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.

Lighting a fire
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.
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. CAUTION: Do NOT leave the stove unattended while door is open.
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 Insert 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 pufng.
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 signicantly to creosote buildup.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER:
Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specifications can result in
permanent damage to the heater and chimney. A glowing red top or vent pipe are indications of overring.
Failure to rectify an over ring condition can be hazardous and may void the manufacturer's warranty.

100002686
Convection Blower Operation
The Insert comes equipped with twin variable speed circulating air blowers. The blower system is
thermostatically controlled for automatic operation, as well as manually with a convenient bypass switch.
Automatic Blower Operation: Allows the blowers to turn on automatically once the Insert has come up to
operating temperature. It will also shut the blowers off after the re has gone out and the appliance has
cooled to below a useful heat output range. Push the rocker switch to the “OFF” position and set the fan
speed control to a desired setting.
Manual Blower Operation: Push the rocker switch to the “ON” position and set the fan speed control to a
desired setting. This will bypass the temperature switch and allow full control of the blowers.
Suggested settings:
- Combustion air control setting of “L” (low) position (pushed to the far right), operate blower speed control
on “Low”.
- Combustion air control set at anything above “L” (low), operate blower speed control at desired setting.
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.
Recommended draft is between .06"w.c. - .09" w.c. when hot, on high
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 pufng 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.
See section "Disposal of Ashes" on page 5.

Maintenance
WARNING: ONLY USE MATERIALS SUPPLIED BY MANUFACTURER WHEN DOING MAINTENANCE OR
REPLACEMENTS.
Door Gaskets -
The gasket used by Pacic Energy (7/8"(22mm) 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 (prt# 80000156). The kit can
be obtained from your nearest Pacic Energy dealer.
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 8-13/16"(224mm) x 15-1/4"(387mm) x 5 mm.
Ceramic glass only. Do not substitute with any other type.
To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws and remove the 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
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 difcult 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. 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.
3. 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.
4. If the plated door requires cleaning, use mild soap and water only. Use of abrasive cleaners will void
warranty.
5. 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.
6. 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 moisture to form creosote.
