General Information

1.1 Performances
Values are as measured per test method, except for the recommended heating area, firebox volume, maximum burn time and maximum heat output.

kW to 13.04 kW)
Average overall efficiency3 (Dry cordwood)| 72 % (HHV)5| 77 % (LHV)6
Optimum overall efficiency7| 79 %
Optimum heat transfer efficiency8| 76 %
Average particulate emissions rate9| 2.3 g/h (EPA / CSA B415.1-10)10
Average CO11| 69 g/h

1 Recommended heating area and maximum burn time may vary subject to location in home, chimney draft,heat loss factors, climate, fuel type and other variables. The recommended heated area for a given appliance is defined by the manufacturer as its capacity to maintain a minimum acceptable temperature in the designated area in case of a power failure.
2 The overall firebox calculation is an approximation and is not intended to be used for loading. This volume includes a buffer zone to allow an easier fuel insertion, prevent ash spillage and allow the air wash to work properly.
3 The maximum heat output (dry cordwood) is based on a loading density varying between 15 lb/ft³ and 20 lb/ft³. Other performances are based on a fuel load prescribed by the standard. The specified loading density varies between 7 lb/ft³ and 12 lb/ft³. The moisture content is between 19% and 25%.
4 As measured per CSA B415.1-10 stack loss method.
5 Higher Heating Value of the fuel.
6 Lower Heating Value of the fuel.
7 Optimum overall efficiency at a specific burn rate (LHV).
8 The optimum heat transfer efficiency is for the low burn rate and represents the appliance’s ability to convert the energy contained in the wood logs into energy transferred to the room in the form of heat and does not take into account the chemical losses during combustion.
9 This appliance is officially tested and certified by an independent agency.
10 Tested and certified in compliance with CFR 40 part 60, subpart AAA, section 60.534(a)(1(ii) and ASTM E3053-17. Based on ALT-125 sent by EPA on February 28th, 2018.

1.2 Specifications

12 North-south: ends of the logs visible, East-west: sides of the logs visible.
13 Mobile homes (Canada) or manufactured homes (USA): The US Department of Housing and Urban Development describes “manufactured homes” better known as “mobile homes” as follows; buildings built on fixed wheels and those transported on temporary wheels/axles and set on a permanent foundation. In Canada, a mobile home is a dwelling for which the manufacture and assembly of each component is completed or substantially completed prior to being moved to a site for installation on a foundation and connection to service facilities and which conforms to the CAN/CSAZ240 MH standard.
14 Tested and certified in compliance with CFR 40 part 60, subpart AAA, section 60.534(a)(1(ii) and ASTM E3053-17. Based on ALT-125 sent by EPA on February 28th, 2018.
1.3 Dimensions

1.4 EPA Loading
The loading methods shown below are those that were used during emissions certification.
1.4.1 Controlling the Air Intake
Once the firewood, firebox and chimney are hot, air intake can be reduced to achieve a steady burn.
As the air intake is reduced, the burn rate decreases.
This has the effect of distributing the thermal energyof the fuel over a longer period of time. In addition,the flow rate of exhaust through the insert and fluepipe slows down, which increases the duration ofthe energy transfer of the exhaust gases. As the airintake is reduced, the flame slows down.
If the flames diminish to the point of disappearing,the air intake has been reduced too early in thecombustion cycle or the wood used is too wet. Ifthe wood is dry and the air control is used properly,the flames should decrease, but remain bright andstable.

1.4.2 High burn rate (primary air control open)
Open the air control completely. Place height small pieces (2″ x 2″) of wood in the firebox crossing them at the greatest possible angle. Criss cross 10 to 16 kindling wood pieces on the small pieces of wood in three layers at the greatest possible angle. Tie knot with five sheets of paper and place them on top of the kindling wood. Light up the paper and let the door ajar at 90° until all the kindling wood is on fire and the first row of small pieces of wood is on fire too. Close the door. When there is no more fire in the front of the firebox and there are only faint flames on the wood in the back of the firebox, break ashes, level the coal bed and put five logs in the firebox. Put 3 pieces on the coal bed, without air space between them. Leave one inch of air space between the rear firebrick and the first piece. The two other pieces should be added on top of the first 3, in an East-West configuration. Let the door ajar to leave a space of one inch on the door handle’s side for 1 minute maximum and then close the door.
1.4.3 Medium and low burn rate
On a two inches thick coal bed that is still red, place three logs in an East- West orientation. There should be air space between each log and between the logs and the bricks. The two other pieces should be added on top of the first three, slightly angled of 20°. Let the door ajar at 90° for approximately 5 min. Then, close the door with the primary air control open. Leave to burn with the primary air control open for approximately 10 more minutes and then close the primary air control completely for the low burn rate and halfway for the medium burn rate. For better results, close the air control gradually from the closing of the door to the complete closing of the air control.

Clearances to Combustible Material

When the insert is installed so that its surfaces are at or beyond the minimum clearances specified, combustible surfaces will not overheat under normal and even abnormal operating conditions.
NO PART OF THE INSERT MAY BE LOCATED CLOSER TO THE COMBUSTIBLE THAN THE MINIMUM CLEARANCE FIGURES GIVEN.
2.1 Minimum Masonry Opening and Clearances to Combustibles

2.2 Floor Protection
It is necessary to have a floor protection made of non-combustible materials that meets the measurements specified below.

2.2.1 Installation Raised of 5″ (127 mm) and Less

2.2.2 Installation Raised of More Than 5″ (127 mm)

2.3 R Value
There are two ways to calculate the R-value of the floor protection. First, by adding the R-values of materials used, or by the conversion if the K factor and thickness of the floor protection are given.
To calculate the total R value from R values of the materials used, simply add the R-values of materials. If the result is equal to or greater than the R-value requirements, the combination is acceptable. R-values of some selected materials are shown below.
Table 1 : Thermal Characteristics of Common Floor Protection Materials 15

MATERIAL| CONDUCTIVITY (K) PER INCH| RESISTANCE (R) PER INCH THICKNESS
---|---|---
Micore® 160| 0.39| 254%
Micore® 300| 0.49| 2.06
Durock®| 1.92| 0.52
Hardibacker®| 1.95| 0.51
Hardibacker® 500| 2.3| 0.44
Wonderboard®| 3.23| 0.31
Cement mortar| 5.00| 0.2
Common brick| 5.00| 0.2
Face brick| 9.00| 0.11
Marble| 14.3 – 20.00| 0.07 – 0.05
Ceramic tile| 12.5| 0.008
Concrete| 1.05| 0.95
Mineral wool insulation| 0.32| 3.12
Limestone| 6.5| 0.153
Ceramic board (Fibremax)| 0.45| 2.2
Horizontal still air (1/8″ thick)| 0.135| 0,920**

15 Information as reported by manufacturers and other resources.
16 Horizontal still air can’t be «stack» to accumulate R-values; each layer must be separated with another non-combustible material.

Exemple:
Required floor protection R of 1.00. Proposed materials: four inches of brick and one inch of Durock® board:
Four inches of brick (R = 4 x 0,2 = 0,8) plus 1 inch of Durock® (R = 1 x 0.52 = 0.52).
0.8 + 0.52 = 1.32.
This R value is larger than the required 1.00 and is therefore acceptable.
In the case of a known K and thickness of alternative materials to be used in combination, convert all K values to R by dividing the thickness of each material by its K value. Add R values of the proposed materials as shown in the previous example.
Exemple:
K value = 0.75
Thickness = 1
R value = Thickness/K = 1/0.75 = 1.33

3.1 Replacement and Adjustment
3.1.1 Door
Note: The images shown are for guidance only and may be different from your product, but the assembly remains the same.
In order for the insert to burn at its best efficiency, the door must provide a perfect seal with the firebox. Therefore, the gasket should be inspected periodically to check for a good seal. The tightness of the door seal can be verified by closing and latching the door on a strip of paper. The test must be performed all around the door. If the paper slips out easily anywhere, either adjust the door or replace the gasket.

3.1.2 Adjustment
The gasket seal may be improved with a simple latch mechanism adjustment:

1. Remove the split pin by pulling and turning it using pliers.
2. Turn the handle one counterclockwise turn to increase pressure.
3. Reinstall the split pin with a small hammer.

3.1.3 Door Alignment
To align, open the door and loosen the pressures screws located on the lower and upper hinges of the door using a 3/32” Allen key to free the adjustable hinge rods.

Using a flat screwdriver, turn the adjustable hinge rods in the direction shown to adjust the doors. Tighten all door hinge pressure screws when they are at the desired positions.
Configurations 1-2-3-4-5-6, show in which direction these act on the adjustment of the door.
