instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES:
1) When installing your stove, particular attention should be paid to re protection. If this room heater is not properly
installed, a house re may result. To reduce the risk of re, follow the installation instructions. Contact local building or re ofcials or authority having jurisdiction about restrictions, installation inspection and permit requirements
in your area.
2) CAUTION: Never use gasoline or 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 heater while it is in use.
3) During operation, if any part of the stove starts to glow, the stove is in an overred condition. Close the air controls
completely until the glowing has stopped. OVERFIRING VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY!
4) Cool ashes should be disposed of carefully, using a metal container.
5) Do not burn wet or green wood. Store wood in a dry location.
6) DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL. Do
not burn treated wood, or wood with salt (driftwood, etc.). Burning materials other than wood (including charcoal)
under adverse conditions may generate carbon monoxide in the home, resulting in illness or possible death.
7) Do not permit creosote or soot to accumulate excessively in the chimney or inside the rebox.
8) Check your chimney system thoroughly when installing into an existing metal or masonry chimney. Seek professional advice if in doubt about its condition.
9) Do not connect this unit to a chimney ue already serving another appliance.
10) Comply with all minimum clearances to combustibles as shown in this manual for this appliance.
11) Build re on brick rebox oor. Do not use grates, andirons or other methods to support fuel.
12) HOT WHILE IN OPERATION! Keep children, pets, clothing and furniture away. Contact can cause skin burns.
13) Do not connect to any air distribution duct or system
14) RISK OF FIRE! Do not operate with stove door open, without the rescreen, or ash removal system door open.
15) For further information refer to NFPA 211 (USA) or CAN/CSA-B365 (Canada).
16) Do not operate without fully assembling all components. Burning your stove without the legs attached (if supplied
with unit) will void your warranty, and could present a serious safety hazard
17) Do not oeprate with broken glass..

LISTINGS
These installation instructions describe the installation and
operation of the Quadra-Fire Bodega Bay Wood Insert. This
insert meets the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s 1990
particulate emission standards. This product is listed by OMNI-Test
Laboratories, Inc. to UL Safety Standard 1482, and ULC S628, and
(UM) 84-HUD. It is approved for mobile home installations when
not installed in a sleeping room and when an outside combustion
air inlet is provided. The structural integrity of the mobile home
oor, ceiling, and walls must be maintained. The insert must be
properly grounded to the frame of the mobile home.
Check with your local building code agency before you begin your
installation to ensure compliance with local codes, including the
need for permits and follow-up inspections. Be sure local building
codes do not supersede UL specications and always obtain a
building permit so that insurance protection benets cannot be
unexpectedly cancelled. If any assistance is required during
installation, please contact your local dealer.
CHIMNEY HEIGHT/DRAFT
To be sure that your Quadra-Fire insert burns properly, the chimney
draft (static pressure) should be approximately -0.10” water column
(W.C.) during a high burn and -0.04” W.C. during a low burn,
measured 6” (152mm) above the top of the insert after one hour of
operation at each burn setting.
NOTE: These are guidelines only, and may vary somewhat for
individual installations.
The insert was designed for and tested on a six inch (152mm)
chimney, 12-14 ft (360-420cm) high, measured from the base
of the insert. The further your stack height or diameter varies
from this conguration, the possibility of performance problems
increases. In addition, exterior conditions such as roof line,
surrounding trees, prevailing winds and nearby hills can inuence
insert’s performance.
A masonry chimney or a listed factory-built UL103 HT Class “A”
chimney must be the required height above the roof and any other
nearby obstructions. The chimney must be at least 3 ft (91cm)
higher than the highest point where it passes through the roof and at
least 2 ft (61cm) higher than the highest part of the roof or structure
that is within 10 ft (305cm) of the chimney, measured horizontally.
See 2-10-3 Rule (Figure 5A). These are safety requirements
and are not meant to assure proper ue draft.
CHIMNEY HEIGHT/DRAFT (CONT’D)
AVOID FIRE: T
material does not contact the chimney, a chimney inside the house
must have at least 2 inches (51mm) of air space clearance around
the chimney. A chimney outside the house must have at least 1 inch
(25mm) clearance to the combus
stops must be installed at the spaces where the chimney passes
through oors and/or ceilings. Refer to Figures 7A & 7B on page
7. Canadian installations require a full reline of the chimney
NOTE: Clearances may only be reduced by means approved by
the regulatory authority having jurisdiction.
WE RECOMMEND that a qualied building inspector and your
insurance company representative review your plans before
installation.

tible structure. Noncombustible re
INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
This product has met and surpassed the most stringent emissions
standards in the United States. The sophistication of the interior
rebox design requires that a proper draft be supplied by the chimney, therefore adherence to the following factors will enable your
insert to operate at its optimum capability.
REQUIRED: A minimum starter pipe reaching to the base of the
existing code approved masonry chimney and an airtight face seal,
but a full chimney liner for factory-built replaces is recommended
for USA and is required in Canada.
BETTER: Direct connection to the rst ue liner in accordance with
the requirements of the NFPA 211.
BEST: A complete relining of the chimney system with a 6 inch
(152mm) diameter listed, stainless liner. Required for factory-built
replace installations in Canada, recommended in USA. The sections
must be attached to the insert and to each other with the crimped
(male) end pointing toward the insert. See Figure 5B. All joints,
including the connection at the ue collar, should be secured with
three sheet metal screws. Make sure to follow the minimum clearances to combustibles as set out on page 4 of the manual.

ALTERNATE FLOOR PROTECTION WORKSHEET
How to determine if alternate oor protection materials are acceptable:
All oor protection must be non-combustible (i.e., metals, brick, stone, mineral ber boards, etc.). Any organic materials (i.e., plastics, wood paper
products, etc.) are combustible and must not be used. The oor protection specied includes some form of thermal designation such as R-value
(thermal resistance) or k-factor (thermal conductivity).
PROCEDURE:
1. Convert specication to R-value:
R-value given - no conversion needed.
k-factor is given with a required thickness (T) in inches:
2. Determine the R-value of the proposed alternate oor protector.
i. Use the formula in step (1) to convert values not expressed as “R”.
ii. For multiple layers, add R-values of each layer to determine overall R-value.
3. If the overall R-value of the system is greater than the R-value of the specied oor protector, the alternate is acceptable.
EXAMPLE: The specied oor protector should be 3/4 inch thick material with a k-factor of 0.84. The proposed alternate is 4” brick with an R-factor of 0.2
over 1/8” mineral board with a k-factor of 0.29.
Step (a): Use formula above to convert specication to R-value.
Step (b): Calculate R of proposed system.
K-factor is given with a required thickness (T) in inches:
r-factor is given with a required thickness (T) in inches: R =
Step (c): Compare proposed system R
Page 6
of 1.231 to specied R of 0.893. Since proposed system R
total
