Troubleshooting

Problem

Possible Cause

Smoke Enters Room During

Open the bypass (pg. 19).

Start-Up

Open the air control (pg. 21).

 

Cold Air Blockage - burn a piece of newspaper to

 

establish a draft.

 

If the flame is not getting enough air, a small crack in

 

the door is all that is needed.

 

 

Kindling Does Not Start - Fire

Open the bypass (pg. 19).

Smolders

Open the air control (pg. 21).

 

Not enough starter paper - use additional newspaper if

 

necessary.

 

If the flame is not getting enough air, a small crack in

 

the door is all that is needed.

 

 

Smoke Enters Room While Re-

Open the bypass before opening the door (pg. 19).

Loading

Open the air control before opening the door (pg. 21).

 

Let the air stabilize before fully opening the door. Then

 

open the door approximately 1 inch. Let air go into the

 

firebox for a few seconds. Once the smoke appears to

 

be flowing up the chimney consistently, open the door.

 

Insufficient Draft - Chimney height and outside

 

conditions can negatively affect draft. In these cases a

 

small amount of smoke may enter the home. Adding

 

more pipe or a draft-inducing cap may help.

 

 

Stove Does Not Burn Hot Enough

Wood is Wet - see the section "Selecting Wood" on

 

page 23 for details on wood.

 

Make sure the air control is all the way open. Slide the

 

control back and forth to insure the control is not stuck.

 

Insufficient Draft - Chimney height and outside

 

conditions can negatively affect draft. In these cases

 

the fire may burn slowly. Adding more pipe or a draft-

 

inducing cap may help.

 

 

Blower Does Not Run

Stove is Not Up to Temperature - This is normal. The

 

blower will come on when the stove is hot - usually 15

 

to 30 minutes.

 

Electricity is Cut to the Blower - Check the household

 

breaker or fuse to make sure it is operable.

 

 

Stove Does Not Burn Long

Depending upon wood, draft, and other factors, the

Enough

burn time may be shorter then stated. Make sure the

doors are sealing and not allowing air into the firebox -

 

 

See the section "Door and Glass Inspection" on page

 

26 for details.

 

Check the ash bed for coals. Often, coals are still

 

glowing under a slight bed of flyash. By raking these

 

into a pile you can re-start your stove quickly.
