Overfiring - Caution!

Overfiring of your woodburning appliance represents a serious fire hazard

Overfiring can also warp your stove, break welds, permanently discolour the enamel and cause premature burnout of your stove. Repeated overfirings will void the warranty of the appliance.

To prevent overfiring:

1.If the air intake has little effect on dampering the fire, excessive chimney draft is the probable cause (especially on chimneys in excess of 20’). Normal chimney draft is approximately 0.05” W.C.. NOTE: Open damper before opening door to prevent smoking.

2.Install a magnetic thermometer on top of your stove near the flue collar or a probe type thermometer in the smoke pipe.

To prevent creosote build-up in the pipes, the stove should be run between 800°F and 900°F for 30-45 minutes each burning day.

3.Except for the initial period after lighting (5-10 minutes), do not operate your stove with the door open.

4.Ensure the ashpan door is tightly closed during operation. An open ashpan door will allow excess draft through the firebox, causing overfiring. When emptying ashes, clean thoroughly behind the ashpan to allow complete closure.

5.Clean your chimney regularly to remove creosote build-up. A chimney fire is a fire hazard and will overfire your stove. See page 20, “What to do if you have a chimney fire”.

6.During operation, if any parts of the stove or pipe begin to glow the stove is overfired. Do not add fuel. Close all doors, dampers and draft controls completely, until glowing is eliminated and safe temperatures are restored. If overfiring conditions persist on subsequent burnings, contact your dealer for remedial action.
