Installation

Please see all methods of Installation in Appendix at the rear of this booklet.

This is a furnace, not a free standing stove. You must direct heated air from 8" outlets away from the furnace, or it will not function properly.

1.This installation must be done by a qualified heating equipment installer.

2.The installation is to be done in compliance with National Fire Protection Association installa- tion standards: No. 89M, 90B, 211, 70 (National Electric Code) and Uniform Mechanical Code 913, 6-4, in the states where applicable. (Their code offers connecting smoke pipe connectors into chimney with other fuel burning appliances.)

3.Rooms large in comparison with size of the appliances:

a)Wood or Coal Burning Furnace needs air for combustion and circulation to house.

b)Provision must be made to make up this air and not starve gas or oil furnace of combustion air.

c)Have "Authority Having Jurisdiction" deter- mine that air is of adequate makeup. (Reference N.F.P.A. Nos. 30 & 54, Code for Installation of Gas & Oil Equipment)

4.Have "Authority Having Jurisdiction" to inspect all chimneys and installations for ad- equate venting and for compliance with standard and local codes and regulations regarding instal- lation of wood burning appliances.

5.Installation of Supplemental Heat Applica- tion to Existing Central System. (See Fig. 2 for typical installation.)

a)Place Wood or Coal Burning Furnace so that the chimney connector will be as short as pos- sible and avoiding unnecessary sharp turns in the smoke pipe connector and the installation of devices that would create excessive resistance to the flow of flue gases.

b)Locate the Wood or Coal Burning Furnace as close as practical to the existing central hot air heating system, maintaining clearances as stated on the label below the fuel door.

c)Clearances from combustible materials must be complied with as stated on the label below the fuel door:

Unit to Combustible:

Front: 48"

Back: 30"

Sides: 12"

Plenum to Ceiling: 6"

Pipe to Combustible:

Sides: 21"

Back: 18"

The installation must be made only on a noncombustible floor.

d)Install the smoke pipe connector to the chimney with 26-gauge pipe and elbows (to be purchased separately), maintaining the proper clearances for the specific model. Make sure that the proper clearances as stated on the label and earlier in this manual are maintained. Seal the smoke pipe in the chimney with furnace cement. (The chimney connector shall be securely sup- ported, and joints fastened with sheet metal screws or rivets.)

e)Install 8" diameter heat pipe to plenum of the central hot air furnace. Use 26-guage pipe and connectors (to be purchased separately). (See Fig. 14) If central air conditioning is installed in the plenum, install heat pipe above the air condition- ing unit. Secure heat pipe connection with sup- ports and sheet metal screws.

f)Connect electrical supply in the electrical junction box that is mounted on the back of the Wood Burning Furnace. See Wiring Diagram (Fig. 12). Remove the cover from electrical junction box connect power supply wires to wires desig- nated, using wire nuts. The power cord supplied may be used for installation, if permitted by local codes and regulations. If the power cord supplied cannot be used, the power supply wiring must be 90 degrees Centigrade in a metal cable and should be completed by a qualified installer com- plying with NFPA Standard No. 70 and local codes.

g)Optional Plenum Fan Control Switch (Part No. 11PCS) is available for installation on the plenum of central hot air heating furnace. The purpose of this switch is to activate the circulating fan of the central hot air heating furnace when the temperature in the plenum exceeds 120 degrees Fahrenheit. The switch would activate the fan at 120 degrees Fahrenheit, and would shut off the circulating fan when the temperature in the ple- num is reduced to 100 degrees Fahrenheit . This avoids overheating the plenum.

The electrical supply for operation of this fan control switch is to be obtained from same elec- trical supply as the central hot air heating system. (See Fig. 14) Follow the instructions of the wiring diagram (Fig. 15). Do not make connections across Limit Control in the furnace.

Make electrical connections in electrical junc- tion box presently mounted on the furnace. Make electrical connections in accordance with NFPA Standard No. 70 and local codes in the power supply junction box (See Fig. 15). The wiring to complete the connections should be 18 AWG minimum copper and 90 degrees Centigrade in a cable.
