INTRODUCTION

he fireplace is an American tradition. It remains a central feature of many homes and provides Tcomfort and enjoyment for years to come, if designed and installed properly. Country Flame continues an American Tradition with decades of experience in manufacturing high quality practical fireplaces. To get the most out of a Smart Fireplace Furnace, ensure competently trained installation personnel follow all restrictions and clearance requirements listed in this manual in accordance with all state, local or national zoning and building codes. This manual provides basic information for proper installation. Consideration must be given to site specific conditions and designs. All fireplaces contain essentially the same elements: a base, a combustion chamber, a smoke chamber, and a chimney system. Requirements for installation are based on the 2003 International Residential Code. Contact your state and local building codes departments along with the local fire department to ensure proper installation requirements have been met. Failure to properly install a fireplace furnace system can cause a house fire. Country Flame Technologies disavows any liability for any damages that may occur as a result of improper installation or misuse of the Smart Fireplace Furnace manufactured by

Country Flame Technologies

Operation of the Smart Fireplace Furnace should be in accordance with this manual and should be operated in accordance with any local zoning codes or local operating restrictions. Home heating is usually achieved by burning natural gas, fuel oil, or propane. The combustion process, including the fuel supply, can be mechanically controlled. This is not the case with

solid fuel. Solid fuel burning is very unpredictable as there are many variables affecting the combustion process. Adding fuel is a manual operation. The amount of wood added depends on the individual operating the system. Also, the requirement for combustion air changes during the burning of a load of wood. Thus the temperature of the wood fire system varies considerably. Burning solid fuel is relatively dirty, compared to liquid fuels, with the buildup of ash and residue. Importantly, there are very limited automatic safety devices. If the firebox temperature reaches an unsafe temperature do to over firing, there is no means to just “turn off” the flame; as a result, controlling a wood fire takes more knowledge and care than most liquid fuel burning processes. A homeowner must understand they are basically burning a fire in the middle of their home. It is both prudent and wise for the homeowner to ensure the fire can be restricted (limit combustion air) and under control (do not allow over firing) in order to enjoy a safe warm fire to provide maximum heat energy in the home without endangering the surroundings or the occupants.

Maintenance requirements contained in this manual must be followed to ensure proper operation of the Smart Fireplace Furnace. Failure to follow maintenance requirements will reduce efficiency of operation or can create unsafe operating conditions. The majority of fires and accidents that occur with wood burning fireplaces are a result of improper

maintenance. A visual inspection of the fireplace box, the chimney connector and the chimney will reduce the possibility of uncontrolled fires or assist in preventing accidents from occurring. Immediately contact your local fire department representative, your local Country Flame Dealer, or a fireplace specialist should a problem be detected with your fireplace furnace. It is the responsibility of the operator of the fireplace furnace product to become familiar, understand, and ensure adherence to all maintenance requirements associated with proper operation of this product. Failure to adhere to maintenance requirements voids Country Flame’s product warranty. Monthly inspections should ensure that dampers and all moving parts are properly working. The chimney, firebox, and chimney connectors should be professionally inspected and cleaned at least once a year. As with any product, the efficiency of your wood burning fireplace furnace depends on how well the Country Flame product is maintained. Your Country Flame Dealer will be happy to assist you in ensuring your fireplace furnace product is maintained in the best possible state. Keep his number handy.
