7.3 FIRE EXTINGUISHERS / SMOKE & CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS
93.1
A fl ash  re is a small  re burned quickly when you don't need much
heat. After your kindling has "caught", load at least 3 pieces of wood,
stacked loosely. Burn with the draft control fully open or closed only
slightly.
7.6 SMOKING
82.1
Load your larger pieces of wood so they are tightly packed, close enough to prevent the fl ames from
penetrating it completely. After approximately 30 minutes, depending on the size of the load, close the draft
control completely making sure that the  re is not extinguished.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THE APPLIANCE!
Overfi ring can occur by:
A. Burning large amounts of smaller wood pieces such as furniture scraps, skids or treated wood;
B.
Vigorously burning large loads of wood with the draft control on “HIGH” (fully open) for long periods of
time (one or two hours).
C. Operating the appliance with the ash dump door blocked open or a poor gasket seal on the main door.
83.1A
A properly installed appliance should not smoke. If yours does, check the following:
• Has the chimney had time to get hot?
• Is the smoke passage blocked anywhere in the appliance, chimney connector or chimney?
• Is the room too airtight and the air intake not connected to the outside? Try with a window partly open.
• Is the smoke fl ow impeded by too long a horizontal pipe or too many bends?
•
Is it a weak draft perhaps caused by a leaky chimney, a cold outside chimney, too large a diameter of a
chimney, too short a chimney, or a chimney too close to trees or a higher roof?
• Is the moisture content of the wood greater than 20%?
• If equipped, has the catalyst bypass been closed or closed prematurely?
