CHIMNEY
The Waterford Stanley Woodburning Range must be connected to a Factory-Built Chimney, installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions or a lined masonry chimney, acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction. An existing masonry chimney should be inspected and if necessary repaired by a competent mason or be relined using an approved relining system.
THE CHIMNEY S E RVING THE WAT E R F O R D S TA N L E Y WOODBURNING RANGE SHOULD NOT SERVE ANY OTHER APPLIANCES. If you
intend to use a fireplace chimney, the fireplace opening must be sealed. The overall height of the chimney, measured from the floor on which the Range is installed must be at least 4.572 meters (15ft). Do not use more than two elbows.
CHIMNEY TYPES USA
The Residential Type Chimney may be: (a) FACTORY-BUILT U.L. Listed Residential
Type HT and Building Heating Appliance chimney (ANSI/UL103) and acceptable to the local building core or,
(b) MASONRY, Constructed in accordance
with NFPA211 code.
This Waterford Stanley Woodburning Range must be connected to an Underwriters Laboratories of Canada Labelled factory Built 650oC Chimney, installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions or a lined masonry chimney acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction.
CHIMNEY CONNECTOR
Single wall stove pipe, used to connect the appli­ance to the chimney must be installed with the crimped end towards the stove. This will ensure that condensing moisture from the burning wood will flow back into the fire chamber. Each joint in the stove pipe must be secured with a least 3 sheet metal screws.
Connectors should be 6” 153mm in diameter and crimped into the fire outlet collar. Corrosion-resis­tant steel, 24 gauge or heavier, is recommended. (Cheap metal pipes are easily damaged by flue gas acids).
A minimum clearance of 450mm (18”) is required for a single wall connector.
CHIMNEY CONNECTOR USA ONLY
Connectors should maintain a pitch or rise of at least 1/4” (6mm) to the foot from this cook stove to the chimney. It should be installed so as to avoid sharp turns or other construction features that would cre­ate excessive resistance to the flow of flue gasses. It should be securely supported with joints fastened with sheet-metal screws, rivets or other approved means. The entire length of a connector should be readily accessible for inspection, cleaning and replacement.
The connector may pass through walls or partitions constructed of combustible materials provided the connector is either listed for wall pass-through or is routed through a device listed for a wall pass­through and is installed in accordance with the con­ditions of the listing. Any unexposed metal that is used as part of a wall pass-through system is exposed to flue gasses shall be constructed of stain­less or other equivalent material that will resist cor­rosion, softening, or cracking from flue gas at tem­peratures up to 982oC.
Where passage through a wall, or partition of com­bustible construction is desired, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA - B 365, Installation Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliance & Equipment.

MASONRY FIREPLACE
Before the installation the entire fireplace system should be inspected for condition and code compliance prior to connecting to the fireplace chim­ney. Older fireplaces and chimneys may not have been constructed to current-day codes.
The fireplace and chimney should be in, or brought up to, acceptable conditions and proper clearances should be met before connecting to the fireplace chimney.
The size of the flue must be considered. If the fireplace chimney is too large, a relining system may be installed using an approved relining system.
Supports should be securely fastened to wall sur­faces on all sides and shall be sized to fit and hold chimney section. Fasteners used to secure chimney sections should not penetrate chimney flue liner.

Connection to a masonry chimney may be done by breaching into the chimney from the front of the fire­place, no less than 8” (200mm) above the bottom of the first flue tile, by installing a stainless steel or other listed chimney connector from the appliances flue outlet up through the fireplace damper and smoke chamber, terminating at the first flue tile, or by installing a stainless steel or other listed relining system from the flue outlet up the entire length of the chimney, where necessary.
4. The house is equipped with a well-sealed vapour barrier and tight fitting windows and/or has any powered devices that exhaust house air.
5. There is excessive condensation on win­dows in the winter.
6. A ventilation system is installed in the house.
If these or other indications suggest that infiltration air is inadequate, additional combustion air should be provided from the outdoors. Outside combustion air can be provided to the appliance by the following means:
1. Indirect method: for an appliance not certified for direct connection of outside combustion air, the outside air is ducted to a point no closer than (12”) 300mm from the appliance, to void affecting the performance of the appliance.
2. A mechanical ventilation system: if the house has a ventilation system (air change or heat recovery): a. The ventilation system may be able
to provide sufficient combustion make-up air for the solid-fuel-fired appliance.
b. The householder should be informed that
the ventilation system might need to be re-balanced by a ventilation technician after installation of the appliance.
SPILLAGE TEST
VENTILATION & COMBUSTION AIR REQUIREMENTS
Provision for outside combustion air may be neces­sary to ensure that fuel-burning appliances do not discharge products of combustion into the house. Guidelines to determine the need for additional com­bustion air may not be adequate for every situation. If in doubt, it is advisable to provide additional air.
Outside combustion air may be required if:
1. The solid-fuel-fired appliance does not draw steadily, smoke rollout occurs, fuels burns poorly, or back drafts occur whether or not there is combustion present.
2. Existing fuel-fired equipment in the house, such as fireplaces or other heating appli­ances, smell, do not operate properly, suffer smoke roll-out when opened, or back-draft whether or not there is combustion present.
3. Opening a window slightly on a calm (windless) day alleviates any of the above
symptoms.
In all installations a spillage test should be carried out to ensure there is sufficient combustion air and the flue system is
1. Light/burn appliance under normal condi­tions in accordance with this installation manual.
2. Close all doors and windows.
3. Operate all appliances requiring air at full rate (eg. extraction hoods, tumble dryers etc).
4. Check for spillage.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: DO NOT CLEAN STOVE WHEN HOT.
To ensure that the Waterford Stanley Woodburning Range will operate safely and with maximum effi­ciency, the entire installation must be properly main­tained. During periods of use, the range, chimney connectors, joints and the main flue itself must be kept clean and in good working condition. You can clean the connectors manually. Use an approved chimney cleaner to clear creosote deposit and repeat as often as necessary. If you use only sea­soned hardwoods, then only occasional chimney cleaning will be necessary.
During the off-season the range may be stored in a dry, covered area, but before storing it, remove the ashes and thoroughly clean out the fire chamber and oven flues. Touch up the black Senotherm fin­ish as required with similar heat-resistant finish. If such are not readily available apply a suitable oil to prevent rust spots, so your Stanley will stay in good condition until you need it again.
EFFICIENT ECONOMICAL USE OF WOOD
Wood combustion occurs in three stages. First the moisture is evaporated (converted to steam), then the volatiles are distilled and finally the fixed carbon (charcoal) is burned. All stages of combustion can occur at the same time, such as when fresh fuel is added to the glowing embers.
Moisture must be evaporated and dispersed before wood will burn. Consequently, wood should be cut and dried for a period of several months (preferably a year) before it is used. The moisture content of some trees may be as high as 100%, i.e. equal in volume to the wood itself. After dry storage over six to ten months the moisture content will usually range from 15% to 25%. Splitting the wood prior to stor­age reduces drying time and this results in more even burning. It minimises condensation of the water vapour and volatile distillates, that in turn cre­ates creosote deposits in chimney flues.
It is apparent that greater efficiency and safety will ensure from burning moderate quantities of dry wood in a hot fire than using green or wet wood that only smoulders.
The Waterford Stanley Woodburning Range ensures that air enters the fire chamber over and around the sides of the fire. This assures complete combustion which in turn minimises heat losses up the flue and reduces the amount of unburned gasses and distillates to the flue. If you have no
alternative but to use soft wood, like elder, spruce or pine, or when green wood has to be used, then the result will be low heat and the formation of much cre­osote. In these conditions the fire must receive plenty of draught which will help to prevent creosote forming. The Waterford Stanley Woodburning Range is sealed to prevent air leaks at the joints, consequently, wood will burn evenly by day and overnight, because of the control you can exercise over the rate of burning.
Cut your wood to size: 406mm (16”) logs, which will fit the Waterford Stanley Woodburning Range fire chamber. The longer the logs the better and more enduring the fire will be.
Hardwoods are best for heat. These include: Beech, Cherry, Ash, Oak, Hickory, Hard (Sugar) Maple, Birch, Larch (Tamarack) and Elm. Elm is hard to split but is fine for a slow burning fire, and like all other woods, it is all the better for seasoning. Your hardwood ashes will benefit the garden; they contain valuable minerals including carbon, potash, phos­phorus, copper, manganese etc. reference to the characteristics of wood are quoted from NFPA No. H8- I, 1974 (U.S.A).
CREOSOTE- Formation and Need for Removal
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 flue of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. We suggest the chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least twice monthly during the heating season to determine if a creosote build-up has occurred. If creosote has accumulated it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.
Inspect the chimney connector frequently. Tap the connector with your finger when the pipe is cool. If you hear a dull echo, the pipe may need cleaning. Disassemble the chimney connector and clean the sections. Replace corroded pipe sections. The fitting of a slip-joint in the stove pipe makes the dismantling easy for cleaning and inspection of chimney and stove.
When inspecting a masonry chimney, start at the clean-out door, normally found in the basement, at the base of the chimney, or on the outside. If your chimney does not have a clean-out door it must be inspected and cleaned by removing stove from chimney.

DISPOSAL OF ASHES
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground well away from all combustible materials pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
I M P O R TA N T: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTA N C E S SHOULD ANY FLAMMABLE LIQUID, GASOLINE KEROSENE, LIGHTER FLUID OR CHARCOAL­STARTERS BE USED TO LIGHT OR “FRESHEN UP” THE FIRE. NEVER USE MANUFACTURED LOGS. OPERATE APPLIANCE ONLY W I T H FUELLING DOOR AND ASHPIT DOOR CLOSED.
“KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM STOVE WHILE IN USE”
HINTS ON FIRE SAFETY
To provide reasonable fire safety the following should be given serious consideration:
1. The installation of smoke detectors.
2. A conveniently located Class A fire extinguisher.
3. A practical evacuation plan.
4. A plan to deal with chimney fire as follows: (a) Notify the fire department
(b) Prepare occupants for immediate
evacuation. (c) Close all openings into the stove (d) While awaiting fire department,
watch for ignition of adjacent com
bustibles from overheated stove pipe
or hot embers or sparks from the
chimney.
NOTE: Inspect the chimney flue weekly until a safe frequency is established.
FUELS
Wood logs up to 406 mm (16”).
LIGHTING THE FIRE
Open the fire door (Part no. 57), lay a few crumpled sheets of paper on the bottom grate (Part no. 41) then a few small dry pieces of sticks or kindling. Open the spin wheel (Part no. 58) fully by rotating it in an anti-clockwise direction. Turn the direct damper (Part no. 63) to open by using the operating tool. Now light the paper, close the fire door (Part no. 57) when the kindling has caught fire (allow 15 minutes for this to happen) add larger pieces of dry wood, until the fire box is half filled. When the larg­er pieces of wood have caught fire, add full sized logs.
OPERATE APPLIANCE ONLY WITH FUELLING DOOR AND ASHPIT DOOR CLOSED.
Fig. 16
CONTROLLING THE FIRE
The chimney damper must be kept closed except when lighting the fire. Combustion is governed by using the spin-wheel (Part No. 58) which controls both primary and secondary air supply to the firebox. The oven damper (Part No. 63) under the round hot­plate (Part No. 20) reduces the chimney draught. You will get to know how to use the spin-wheel (Part No. 58) and the oven damper (Part No. 63) in con­junction for the best results. Remember NOT to try to get a quick temperature increase by opening the chimney damper. Keep the ashpit door (Part No. 3) closed securely except when de-ashing the fire. Keep the firedoor (Part No. 57) closed securely except when fuelling from the front. Loading fre­quency of the fuel depends on burn rate. Once they are well alight, logs need little draught to maintain combustion.
K E E P A L L COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS AT LEAST 1220mm (4 feet) AWAY FROM THE RANGE.
They include rugs, fabrics, furnishings, papers, fire­wood, etc. NEVERdry clothing on or within 1220mm (4 feet) of the range.

THE HOTPLATE
Use the hotplate and the cooking-top of the range for boiling simmering, frying, grilling, braising, etc. Best results can be obtained by using flat bottomed utensils. The lacquer which was applied to protect the surface-ground hotplates will burn off. Keep the hotplates clean with a wire brush. Over a short peri­od you will quickly adapt to the best ways and means of using the cooker-top in order to obtain utmost satisfaction and efficiency.
THE OVEN
When the oven is required for baking, roasting, or casseroling, open the oven dampers (Part No. 63) and the spin-wheel (Part No. 58) until the oven thermometer (Part No. 74) shows a temperature of about 25 C below that required. Then adjust the oven damper (Part No. 63) to reach the required temperature without exceeding it. A little practice will soon show how much adjustment is necessary.
OVERNIGHT BURNING
The correct setting for the spin-wheel (Part No. 58) and the oven damper (Part No. 63) for overnight burning can be found by experimenting. The following routine should give the requirement. (If it does not, the spin-wheel or the damper can be closed more for another attempt). Open the spin­wheel (Part No. 58) a quarter of a turn and close the oven damper (Part No. 63) to one quarter of its max­imum opening. Lightly riddle the fire bottom bar and re-fuel with logs until the firebox is full. In the morn­ing open the spin-wheel (Part No. 58) and oven damper (Part No. 63). Lightly riddle the fire. When the fire is burning well, top up with logs.
CHIMNEY CLEANING
Inspect the chimney connector frequently. Tap the connector with your finger when the pipe is cool. If you hear a dull echo, the pipe may need cleaning. Disassemble the chimney connector and clean the sections. Replace corroded pipe sections, the fitting of a slip-joint in the stove pipe makes the dismantling easy for cleaning and inspection of chimney and stove.
When inspecting a masonry chimney, start at the clean-out door, normally found in the basement, at the base of the chimney, or on the outside. If the chimney does not have a clean-out door it must be inspected and cleaned by removing the stove from the chimney.

VITREOUS ENAMEL CLEANING
RIDDLING
Open the ashpit door (Part No. 3). Use the operating tool (Part No. 30) to lightly move the bottom grate (Part No. 41) to and fro. Empty the ash pan (Part No. 70) as required. Always close the ash­pit door tightly.
FLUE CLEANING
Open the oblong hot plate (Part No. 19). Remove the simmering/oven hob cleaning cups (Part No.
15), open the direct damper (Part No. 14). Brush deposits on the oven top into the fire box, brush downwards the deposits in the space both behind and at the side of the oven. Remove the cleaning door (Part No. 59) from below the oven door (Part No. 2). Rake the deposits through from underneath the oven towards the front and out through the cleaning aperture in the cooker front (Part No. 1) into a container.
General cleaning must be carried out when the stove is cool.
If this stove is finished in a high gloss vitreous enam­el, to keep the enamel in the best condition observe the following tips:
1. Wipe over daily with a soapy damp cloth, followed by a polish with a clean dry duster.
2. For stubborn deposits a soap impregnated pad can be carefully used on the vitreous enamel.
3. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE PADS OR OVEN
CLEANSERS CONTAINING CITRIC ACID ON ENAMELLED SURFACES. ENSURE THAT THE CLEANSER MANUFACTUR ERS INSTRUCTIONS ARE ADHERED TO.
