USA: 35″ x 43 1/8″ (889 x 1096 mm) and Canada: 47″ x 53 1/8″ (1194 x 1350 mm) Alcove: min width = 51″ (1295 mm), max depth = 49″ (1245 mm), min height above stove top = 48″ (1219 mm)

FLOOR PROTECTION
If the appliance is installed on a combustible floor, a non-combustible shield must be used underneath the appliance. In the USA, the non-combustible shield must extend 16″ out from the front and 8″ out from either side of the fuel- loading door. In Canada, the non-combustible shield must extend 8″ out from the rear and either side ofthe appliance and 18″ out from the front of the loading door. A non-combustible shield is also required underneath the chimney connector and extend at least 2″ on either side of the chimney connector. This floor protection is required to prevent sparks from falling onto the combustible floor (see CSA B365-M87). This appliance does not require a thermal hearth pad protection. Blaze King does not recommend adhesive based vinyl flooring in front of appliances due to thermal expansion and warping which could be permanent.

CHIMNEY CONNECTIONS

Page 11

DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE THIS APPLIANCE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCTWORK UNLESS SPECIFICALLY APPROVED FOR SUCH INSTALLATIONS
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE CONNECTED TO: 1) A CHIMNEY COMPLYING WITH THE REQUIREMENTS FOR TYPE HT CHIMNEYS IN THE STANDARD FOR CHIMNEYS, FACTORY-BUILT, RESIDENTIAL TYPE AND BUILDING HEATING APPLIANCE, UL 103, OR 2) A CODE-APPROVED MASONRY CHIMNEY WITH A FLUE
LINER. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM.

COMBUSTION AIR
In air tight homes (most modern construction), careful considerations must be taken into account before installing a wood burning appliance. It is important to ensure there is adequate intake (combustion) air for all exhausting type appliances within the dwelling. Heat recovery ventilator (HRV) systems along with constant running fan motors in air handlers are examples of appliances that must be taken into account when balancing
intake air (others include fireplaces, range hoods, dryers, etc.). It is recommended that a fresh air intake inlet into the room where the appliance is located be installed. Failure to do so may result in air starvation, smoke
spillage, and carbon monoxide threats. Consult a HVAC specialist for proper installation practices.

DRAFT PERFORMANCE
Draft is the movement of combustion air into the appliance and out through the chimney as exhaust gas. In essence, it is the difference in pressure between the exhuast gas inside the chimney and the outside air that creates this movement. Warmer, lighter exhuast gasses in the chimney tend to move upward. The amount of draft created by your chimney can depend on chimney length, horizontal offsets, insulating properties, local geography, external forces, and other factors. External factors (outdoor temperature, wind, barometric pressure, topography, etc.) or internal factors within the dwelling (negative pressure from exhaust fans, chimneys, air infiltration, etc.) may adversely affect draft.

Too much draft can yeild very high temperatures within the appliance and may result in damage. An uncontrollable burn or excessive room temperatures are indicaters of too much draft. Too little draft may cause back puffing (smoke spillage) into the room and plugging of the chimney, chimney cap, or spark arrestor screen. Inadequate draft can also lead to low heat output and the inability for the combustor to remain active at low burn rate settings. Your Blaze King heater is a high efficiency appliance and will require fine tuning of your chimney system in order to maximize draft performance. Blaze King cannot be responsible for external forces leading to less than optimal draft performance.
ROLE OF THE CHIMNEY The role of the chimney is to maintain sufficient draft to achieve complete combustion. To ensure maximum performance, Blaze King recommends a minimum vertical chimney height of 15ft (from stove top to termination) when installing an appliance at sea level (and up to 1000ft of elevation). For freestanding installations, it is also recommended to use double wall pipe from stove top adaptor to ceiling support box. Double wall pipe helps to keep the chimney warm and improve draft performance. For wall exit installtions, a verticle length of 3ft from stove top to elbow is recommended. It is also recommended to use a pair of 45 degree elbows rather than a single 90 degree elbow to allow for a smoother transition of airflow. When possible, outside chimney systems should be isolated from the external environment by building a chase around the chimney. Doing so will help keep the chimney warm and maintain sufficient draft (please refer to the “RECOMMENDED FLUE HEIGHTS” section). Without a properly installed chimney, this appliance will not operate at its maximum performance which could yield incomplete combustion leading to more smoke exiting the chimney system.

VENTING SYSTEM
A venting system consists of: · Appliance Connector – a “stove top adaptor” that
creates a positive connection between the appliance and flue pipe. · Flue Pipe – either single or double wall pipe that is only used within the room, connecting the appliance 45 DEGREE ELBOWS to either a ceiling box or wall pass through. · Chimney – a listed, factory built component with either 1″ or 2″ insulation that is suitable for use with solid fu- FLUE PIPE els, conforming to ULC629 in Canada or UL 103HT in APPLIANCE the USA. Note: This appliance may also be connected CONNECTOR to a Masonry Chimney.

CHIMNEY SECTIONS LISTED WALL PASS THROUGH

All joints within the venting system must be securely fastened with sheet metal screws. The flue pipe between the appliance connector and chimney should be kept as direct as possible. Do not use a flue pipe to pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a floor or ceiling. A chimney support package must be used when a connection is made through a ceiling to a listed prefabricated chimney. A listed wall thimble must be used when a connection is made through a combustible wall to a chimney. These accessories are necessary to provide safe clearances to combustible walls and ceilings. These components can get extremely hot during use. In the event of a creosote fire, temperatures inside the chimney may exceed 2000F (1100°C). An effective vapor barrier must be maintained at the location where the chimney or vent component penetrates to the exterior of the structure. Do not connect this appliance to a chimney serving another appliance; To do so will affect the safe operation of both appliances and will void the appliance warranty. You must comply with the local authority having jurisdiction and/or in Canada, CSA installation standard B365-M87.
CONNECTION TO A METAL PREFABRICATED CHIMNEY Refer to the prefabricated chimney manufacturer’s installion instructions to ensure safe clearance to combustibles are maintined when installing. All components (ceiling support package or wall pass through and “T” section package, fire stops, insulation shield, roof flashing, chimney cap, etc.) must be purchased from the same prefab chimney manufacturer. There are two common methods of a prefab chimney installation: the recommended method is to install the chimney inside the dwelling up through the ceiling(s) and the roof, while the alternative method is to install an exterior chimney that runs up the outside of the structure. Though not recommended, the alternative method is sometimes it is the only option. In that case it is recommended to build a chase around the external chimney.

The chimney must meet a minimum height above the roof and/or other obstruction(s) for safety purposes and to ensure sufficient draft. It is required that the chimney be at least 3ft higher than the highest point where it passes through the roof and at least 2ft higher than the highest part of the roof or any obstruction within 10ft (measured horizontally) of the chimney. Refer to the “RECOMMENDED CHIMNEY HEIGHTS” chart for minimum flue height recommendations and ULC629 in Canada or UL-103HT in the USA for installation codes.

CONNECTION TO A MASONRY CHIMNEY First and foremost, ensure the masonry chimney meets the minimum standards per the National Fire Protection Association by having it inspected by a certified professional. There must be no cracks, no loose mortar, and no signs of deterioration or blockage. Ensure the chimney is properly cleaned before installing the appliance. When connecting the appliance through a combustible wall, special methods are required; refer to local jurisdiction for the approved methods of passing a chimney connector through a combustible wall in your area (In the USA, refer to the NFPA minimum standards, and in Canada, refer to CAN/ CSA-B365, the Installation Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliances and Equipment). Blaze King recommends the use of a stainless steel liner, preferably insulated, inside a masonry chimney. This is to help maintain a proper draft to achieve optimal performance of the appliance.

RECOMMENDED CHIMNEY HEIGHTS
Every installation is unique, especially when considering geographical location. As previously mentioned, maintaing sufficient draft is of utmost importance, but this can be a challange as draft can be heavily influenced by topographical and geographical phenomena. The understanding of pressure planes and the stack effect are imperative in planning and executing a successful installation.

As previously mentioned, Blaze King recommends a minimum vertical chimney hieght of 15 feet (from stove top to termination) when installing an appliance at sea level (and up to 1000 feet of elevation). If the install is at a higher elevation, please refer to the table below for recommended chimney hieghts:

NOTE: No more than one offset (two elbows) are allowed. Two 45°elbows equal one 90° elbow

For other common chimney components, use the following vertical height(s) to compensate for: 90° elbow = 2.0 ft (0.610 m) “T” section = 3.0 ft (0.915 m) 1.0 ft (0.305 m) of horizontal run = 2 ft (0.610 m) of verticle rise

Example Chimny Height Calculation (at sea level):

Min Chimney Height = 15.0 ft (4.575 m)

One 90° Elbow

= 2.0 ft (0.610 m)

2.0’ Horizontal Run = 4.0 ft (1.200 m)

One Base “T”

= 3.0 ft (0.915 m)

Final Chimney Height = 24.0 ft (7.3 m)

YOUR FIRST FIRE! The following pages contain information on the operation of the major components on your Blaze King appliance. Please take the time to read through this section as it will give you a better understanding of how your appliance works. This understanding will help you to operate your appliance at its optimum level thus extended its life while allowing you to get the highest efficiencies from your heater.
INTRODUCTION All Blaze King free standing wood burning appliances are designed as radiant room space heaters. They have been tested and certified to be installed in insulated, habitable rooms within your dwelling. The appliance has not been designed to be installed in a concrete, uninsulated basement or in a shop/garage environment. Such applications may cause the thermostat to be unresponsive due the constant call for heat resulting in appliance being in a constant over fire situation. Consequential damage from this type of operation will deem the warranty null and void.
All Blaze King wood appliances are designed to burn cord wood only. Dimensional timber off cuts, very low moisture content small diameter wood and pressed wood logs, when used in excess, may result in excessive internal firebox temperatures that can cause causing irreversible damage to the firebox’s internal structure. Excessive temperatures can be caused by many small pieces of very low moisture content wood being used as a primary fuel source. This may be evident by warping or warped internal plates and retainers, possible cracking of the outer firebox and possibly premature failure of the catalytic combustor. All wood appliances should be cleaned out and inspected at the end of every burning season to identify if any internal components have been affected during the burning season. If problems are observed steps must be taken to identify and correct the problem before the subsequent burning season. Failure to do so will result in the warranty of the product being null and void.
EFFICIENCY Efficiency was determined using the method outlined in B415.1-10 test method. It is represented by the Higher Heating Value (HHV) as the fuel used during testing contains between 19% – 25% water moisture included in the total calculated fuel weight. (Other test methods such as LHV or Low Heating Value, does not take the water moisture into account).
Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) attempts to represent the actual, season long, average efficiency of an appliance. HHV is the actual, calculated average efficiency obtained under test conditions. Using correctly seasoned wood is important when trying to gain efficiency. The more seasoned (dry) the wood, the higher the efficiency (less energy wasted on eliminating moisture during combustion). Operating your Blaze King at lower settings will result in higher efficiencies as the fuel will undergo a more complete combustion. For maximum efficiency, the appliance should be installed in a location that provides adequate intake/combustion air as well as a location that will allow for the straightest run of optimal chimney length to establish necessary draft.
FAN OPERATION Fans are an optional item for most Blaze King appliances. If fans are installed on your appliance, they should be turned off until the stove reaches normal operating temperatures. Approximately 30 minutes after a fire has been established within the appliance, the fan speed should match the thermostat control setting. (i.e. if your themostat is set to a medium heat output then your fan should also be set at medium, low–low, high–high etc.). We recommend the use of fans on all of our wood appliances. The fan system recirculates room air over the hot surfaces of your appliance and helps spread this super heated air around your home.

SELECTING WOOD It takes a great deal of energy to evaporate the moisture contained in green or wet wood and that energy will not be heating your home. Green or wet wood will also greatly increase creosote issues. To ensure that your wood fuel has a moisture content of 20% or lower, only use seasoned wood that has been split, stacked, and protected from rain or snow for at least 24 months. Firewood should be split and stacked in a manner that allows for air flow to all areas. Both hardwood and softwood burn equally well in this appliance, but the more dense hardwood will weigh more per cord and burn a little slower and longer. Never burn salt-water driftwood as it is very corrosive and will deteriorate the structure of the appliance. The burning of salt-water driftwood will void the warranty. The only way to accurately determine wood moisture is to purchase and measure with a moisture meter.

THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO BURN NATURAL WOOD ONLY. DO NOT BURN WET UNSEASONED WOOD. DOING SO CAN CAUSE EXCESSIVE CREOSOTE ACCUMULATION AND IF IGNITED, CAN CAUSE A CHIMNEY FIRE THAT MAY RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM. BURNING AIR DRIED SEASONED WOOD WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF CHIMNEY FIRES AND YIELD
HIGHER EFFECIENCIES AND LOWER EMISSIONS.

HOW TO USE MOISTURE METERS 1. Randomly select three logs from your wood pile and split each one
down the middle. 2. Three points of measurement are required to determine the
moisture content of each log: 2″ (5 cm) from either end and in the middle of the split surface of the log. To take these measurements, insert the moisture meter pins at the points described, keeping the pins inline with the wood grain. Record each measurement. 3. Do this to all three logs and take an average of the readings (this is an approximate indication).

2″ / 5 cm

2″ / 5 cm

DO NOT BURN TREATED WOOD, COAL, CHARCOAL, COLORED PAPER, CARDBOARD, SOLVENTS OR GARBAGE. BURNING THESE MATERIALS MAY RESULT IN THE RELEASE OF TOXIC FUMES AND/OR CARBON MONOXIDE WHICH MAY RESULT IN POISONING. DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA, OR ENGINE GEL. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE TYPE LANTERN FUEL, KEROSENE, OR CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID TO START OR FRESHEN UP A FIRE IN THIS APPLIANCE. DOING SO MAY LEAD TO OVERFIRING RESULTING IN A
HOUSE FIRE AND SERIOUS BODILY HARM.
FIRE POKER The steel Fire Poker that is provided with this appliance serves two purposes: 1) to manipulate fuel loads and 2) to remove the ash plug via hook welded to the top plate (if the appliance is fitted with an ash drawer).

BYPASS DOOR Your catalytic wood burning appliance is fitted with a bypass door which allows exhaust from the fire to temporarily bypass the catalytic combustor. The bypass door is located inside the dome of the firebox at the top of the appliance. It is a hinged, steel plate door and is controlled by the bypass handle located on the right side of the appliance. When the handle is pointing forward, the bypass door is open. To close the bypass door you must rotate the handle clockwise until it points to the rear of the appliance. To ensure the bypass door is fully closed, push down on the bypass handle until you hear a positive click. NEVER OPEN THE LOADING DOOR WITHOUT OPENING THE BYPASS DOOR.

CATALYTIC THERMOMETER The catalytic thermometer is located on the top of the appliance. Its sole purpose is measure the exhaust gasses after they have passed through the combustor to indicate whether the combustor is ACTIVE or INACTIVE. It is important to ensure that the appliance is operated in the ACTIVE zone. When the thermometer reads INACTIVE it means that the combustor temperature is below 500F and is not producing a clean burn. For the most accurate reading, turn the fan off for approximately 5 minutes before reading the thermometer. For calibration instructions, please refer to the “MAINTENANCE” section.
THERMOSTAT The thermostat is located at the rear of the appliance and is controlled by the thermostat knob which is located at the upper right rear corner of the appliance. When the knob is positioned at the HIGH setting, the appliance will operate at its highest burn rate and deliver its maximum heat output. As the knob is rotated counter clockwise the burn rate will decrease along with heat output. Burn rate is greatly influenced by location, installation, and external environment, so you may find it necessary to reposition the knob until you find the ideal setting to suit your situation. Please note that all adjustments to the thermostat should be done gradually as too rapid a change may cause the thermostat to operate improperly. The thermostat has a manufacturerset minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is against federal regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual.

LIGHTING THE FIRE NOTE: As you heat up the appliance for the first time, the paint will go through a curing process and will give off a strong odor coupled with smoke. To minimize the inconvenience, burn the stove at a low temperature setting for several hours. It is recommended to open a door or window until the odor and smoke dissipates. You may also notice a change in color as the paint cures, this is normal and will appear uniform after subsequent firings.
1. ENSURE ALL BRICKS ARE CORRECTLY POSITIONED INSIDE THE FIREBOX AND BUILD THE FIRE DIRECTLY ON THE BRICK IN THE BOTTOM OF THE STOVE. DO NOT USE A GRATE.
2. Position the thermostat to the HIGH setting and turn the fan (if fitted) OFF. 3. Open both the loading door and the bypass door. 4. Place 10 balls of non-glossy paper towards the front of the bottom of the firebox then stack 20 pieces of
kindling on top of the paper in a crisscross fashion (leaving air gaps in between sticks). 5. Light the fire and allow it to get a good start while leaving the loading door cracked open (approximately
3 to 5 minutes). DO NOT LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED. 6. Once the kindling is fully on fire, place two or three medium size logs onto the fire. Keeping the loading
door unlatched, allow the logs to catch fire (approximately 5 minutes). DO NOT LEAVE THE STOVE UNATTENDED. 7. Once the logs are burning, latch the loading door shut BUT keep the bypass door open. Leaving the loading door open after the wood load has caught fire may cause premature failure of the catalytic combustor. 8. When nearly all of the wood in the firebox is fully burning, finish loading the appliance. Lay the wood as far back in the stove as possible. Latch the loading door shut and observe the catalytic thermometer. Once the needle is in the ACTIVE ZONE, close the bypass door. 9. Let the fire burn with the thermostat at the HIGH setting for 20-30 minutes or until the fire is well established. This ensures that the stove, catalyst, and wood load are all stabilized at optimum operating temperatures. The temperature in the stove and the gases entering the combustor must be raised to at least 500F (indicated by the thermometer needle in the ACTIVE ZONE) for catalytic activity to be initiated. 10. After 20-30 minutes or once the fire is well established, gradually turn the thermostat down to the desired heat output setting. Please note that if the thermostat is turned down too low too quickly, the fire may go out or the combustor may stop working, indicated by the thermometer needle falling into the INACTIVE ZONE. If this happens, simply turn the thermostat back to a higher heat output setting to let the fire reestablish itself. 11. If an optional fan kit is installed, turn the fan on after the initial warm up period of 20-30 minutes.
Probably the least understood requirement of maintaining a good fire is that of establishing a good base of coals or embers. A glowing hot coal bed will help to maintain more even temperatures as well as assist in relighting the next fuel load. Put as much wood into the appliance as needed, practice will teach the amount of wood necessary to keep the fire going until the next reloading time. Don’t be afraid to fill it completely if necessary. With the Blaze King thermostat, the wood will only burn at the rate set on the thermostat. Once the fire is established, the appliance should be left to complete the full burn cycle. This is evident by a) only a glowing coal bed (ember bed) remaining or b) the catalytic thermometer hovers just inside the active zone. Following this procedure will maximize the efficiency of the appliance as well as limit exhaust emissions and smoke spillage.

RELOADING PROCEDURE
WHEN PREPARING TO RELOAD, IF THE NEEDLE ON THE CATALYTIC THERMOMETER IS STILL IN THE ACTIVE ZONE, FOLLOW THE PROCEDURE BELOW; IF THE NEEDLE HAS DROPPED INTO THE INACTIVE ZONE, REFER BACK TO THE “LIGHTING THE FIRE” PROCEDURE ON THE PREVIOUS PAGE.
It is important to note that the catalytic thermometer is simply displaying the temperature of the catalytic combustor. It may be used as an aid when it comes to indentifying a reload point, but other factors such as lack of fuel in the firebox or dropping room temperatures should be used as well.
1. Have your next load of wood ready before beginning. Turn the thermostat to HIGH to ensure the remaining coal bed is active before relaoding. Wait 2 minutes for the air flow to stabilize.
2. To help minimize smoke spillage into the room, you may wish to open the bypass door and again wait 2 minutes for the air flow to stabilize.
3. Crack open the loading door to allow ambient room air to be introduced into the firebox, this may take a minute to stabilize.
4. Slowly open the loading door and proceed to reload the firebox. If you experience excessive smoke spillage, slightly close the loading door to re- establish a draft through the chimney.
5. Once loaded, latch the loading door shut and (if opened) close the bypass door immediately. Let the fire burn on the HIGH thermostat setting for 20 to 30 minutes OR until the fire is very well established. At that point, turn the thermostat down to the desired setting. Keep in mind, you may not see a large amount of flame activity in the lower thermostat setting. The thermometer needle will remain in the active zone indicating that the burn cycle is continuing.
6. Should you burn the stove on a very low setting for extended periods of time, you will begin to see creosote deposits forming on the glass door. To remove these deposits, simply run the stove on HIGH for approximately 30 minutes. The HIGH setting will burn off most of the deposits
Note: Our loading instructions are outlined in general terms due to the vast array of variables that arise with each installation. Such variables include type of wood fuel, chimney height and configuration, installation altitude, seasonal weather conditions, and the desired heat output required. Over time you will learn which settings are necessary to achieve optimal performance with your specific installation.

THIS APPLIANCE IS HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. CHILDREN AND PETS MUST BE KEPT FROM TOUCHING THE APPLIANCE WHEN IN USE. COMBUSTIBLE OBJECTS MUST BE KEPT A MINIMUM OF 48″(1219 MM) FROM THE FRONT OF THE APPLIANCE. COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL SUCH AS CLOTHING OR FURNITURE PLACED TOO CLOSE TO THE APPLIANCE CAN CATCH FIRE. DO NOT STORE WOOD WITHIN THE SPECIFIED SAFETY CLEARANCES OR WITHIN THE SPACE REQUIRED FOR RE-FUELING AND ASH REMOVAL. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS OR RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE
CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM.

OPTIMAL LOW BURN THERMOSTAT SETTING Your Blaze King appliance was tested and certified in accordance to the New Source Performace Standards for Residential Wood Heaters. During this test series, the low burn rate of the unit was determined by setting the thermostat knob to a position that yeilded the lowest burn rate achievable. Considering that certification testing was conducting in a controlled labratory environment with the appliance connected to a 15ft tall chimney, you may find that your optimal low burn thermostat setting is either above of below the certification test setting based on your location, installation, and the external environment you are operating in. If you find that you are setting your thermostat beyond the test setting, please note that if the thermostat is turned down too low the fire may go out or the combustor may stop working which is indicated by the thermometer needle falling into the INACTIVE ZONE. If this happens, simply turn the thermostat back to a higher heat output setting and let the fire reestablish itself.

TESTED LOW BURN SETTING

WOOD BURNING IN THE SHOULDER SEASON
There are a few things to consider if you choose to light a fire during the spring or fall seasons when the outside temperature is milder, perhaps 55F to 70F (13°C to 21°C).

You may notice smoke spillage out of the loading door when it is opened during start up or reloading. This is
caused by a lack of natural draft within the chimney system. The temperature difference between the chimney system and the outside air causes flue gasses to be drawn up and out of the chimney. Smaller temperature differences produce less draft in your chimney system than larger temperature differences. This air movement, referred to as Stack Effect, is also influenced by air density and moisture differences. To eliminate the smoke spilliage you may have to stoke the fire for longer than usual. Once the fire warms the chimney the draft will improve and spillage will be reduced. When operating the appliance on a lower thermostat setting, the
resultant lower flue temperatures can cause your chimney system to cool down. This also decreases natural draft and spillage may occur.

General Rules for burning in the shoulder season: · Run your appliance on HIGH for 30 minutes after start up and reloading before gradually turning the
thermostat down to the desired heat output setting.
· The thermostat setting needs to be high enough to keep the catalytic thermometer in the active zone. If the thermometer will not stay in the active zone, turn the thermostat to a higher setting and then wait 15 minutes to confirm that the thermometer remains in the active zone. Repeat as required.
· If your appliance is producing too much heat, try to reduce the volume of wood fuel loads rather than turning your thermostat down. It is good burning practice to build smaller, hotter fires on milder days in the spring and fall.
ICE – FORMATION AND PREVENTION Most of what you see coming from the chimney of a properly operating catalytic appliance is water vapor. In extremely cold weather, and with some exterior chimneys, this vapor may freeze in the chimney to the point of actually blocking the chimney and extinguishing the fire. In such weather, burn the appliance for 5 to 10 minutes with the thermostat set to HIGH to melt any possible ice build.

CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR

Page 27

DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE WITHOUT THE CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR INSTALLED. DOING SO WILL LEAD TO EXCESSIVE SMOKE AND TEMPERATURES THAT COULD RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM. ONLY BURN SEASONED WOOD. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY DAMAGE THE COMBUSTOR AND WILL VOID ALL WARRANTIES.
COMBUSTOR MONITORING It is good practice to monitor the catalytic combustor to ensure it is functioning properly. An improperly functioning combustor will result in a loss of heating efficiency and an increase in emissions and creosote buildup. The following list of items should be checked on a periodic basis: · Combustors should be visually inspected at least three times during the heating season to determine if
physical degradation has occurred. Actual removal of the combustor is not recommended unless more detailed inspection is warranted because of decreased performance. Please refer to the “COMBUSTOR TROUBLESHOOTING” section. · This appliance is equipped with a catalytic thermometer to monitor combustor operation. A properly functioning combustor will maintain temperatures in excess of 500F (indicated by the thermometer needle in the ACTIVE zone) and often reach temperatures in excess of 1000F. If the combustor temperature falls below 500F (thermometer needle in the INACTIVE zone), refer to the “COMBUSTOR TESTING” section. · A good way to determine whether the combustor is functioning properly is by comparing the amount of smoke exiting the chimney while the combustor is engaged (bypass door closed) versus when the combustor is bypassed (bypass door open). Note: After opening the bypass door, wait approximately 15 minutes before observing the smoke exiting the chimney. Significantly more smoke SHOULD be seen when the exhaust is not routed through the combustor (bypass mode). Smoke may be visible shortly after lighting the fire and shortly after reloading the fire so allow 20 to 30 minutes for the fire to stabilize before making observations.
COMBUSTOR TESTING Follow these instructions to test the catalytic combustor:

  1. Light a fire per the “LIGHTING THE FIRE” instructions. 2. After burning a well established fire for 1 hour, position the thermostat knob to a medium-low burn rate
    setting. 3. After 5 minutes at the lower burn rate, observe the location of the thermometer needle. A properly
    functioning combustor will have a temperture greater than 500F with the thermometer needle in the ACTIVE zone. An improperly functioning combustor will yield thermometer reading in the INACTIVE zone. 4. Repeat step 3 for at least 3 burn cycles. 5. if the thermometer needled is still not reaching the ACTIVE zone, your combustor may require cleaning. 6. If, after cleaning the combustor and reburning, the thermometer needle is still not reaching the ACTIVE zone, your combustor may need replacing. Contact your Blaze King dealer for a replacement combustor. Note – It is also possible that the catalytic thermometer itself may not be functioning properly. Before deeming the combustor “disfunctional”, please refer to the “CATALYTIC THERMOMETER” section.

DO NOT PERFORM ANY CLEANING UNTIL THE FIRE IS OUT AND THE APPLIANCE IS COOL. HOT ASH IN A VACUUM CLEANER BAG COULD MELT THE VACUUM AND COULD RESULT IN A HOUSE FIRE
CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM.
COMBUSTOR CLEANING Under certain conditions, ash particles may become attached to the face of the combustor. These particles may be seen while the combustor is glowing under fire or when the fire is out. Any deposits on the face of the combustor should be removed. There are two ways to clean the face of the combustor: (1) Brushing the combustor with a soft bristle paint brush, or (2) Passing a vacuum cleaner wand or brush near the face of the combustor. Limit cleaning to the face of the combustor (note – the flame shield will have to be removed to gain access to the face). Do not scrape the combustor with any hard tool or brush and do not run pipe cleaner through the individual cells of the combustor as this may do more harm than good. Do not remove the combustor during this process. Note – simply burning a hot fire usually proves to be the best method of cleaning the combustor of deposits.
COMBUSTOR REPLACEMENT If the catalytic combustor has been deemed “disfunctional” per the guidelines in “COMBUSTOR TESTING”, discontinue use of the appliance until the combustor is replaced. Follow the steps below to complete the replacement (BLAZE KING RECOMMENDS THAT YOUR DEALER OR CERTIFIED INSTALLER PERFORM THIS PROCEDURE):
1. The appliance must be cool to touch, having gone at least 12 hours without being burned. A combustor can reach 1400F and hold temperatures for several hours, even after the fire is out. After waiting 12 hours, begin by removing the flame shield by simply lifting the shield off the two tabs at either lower corner. Pay particular attention to orientation of the flame shield in order to reinstall in the correct position.

180-KE40 v2.00

2. Once the flame shield is removed, you will have access to the combustor. The combustor can be made of different materials such as cordierite, mulite, or stainless steel. They are all the same with regard to removal and caution should be taken so as to not drop or damage the combustor. If your combustor has never been cleaned according the manufacturers directions, you may wish to clean the combustor before replacing it with a new combustor (please refer to the “COMBUSTOR CLEANING” section).

3. There are metal tabs across the bottom and on either side of the combustor. Using a flat blade screwdriver or pocket knife blade, slide the tip in between the metal tab on the left side of the combustor and the steel dome of the stove (the dome is the housing that encases the combustor). Apply slight pressure until the combustor begins to move forward. Repeat the process on the metal tab on the right side of the combustor. By working back and forth the combustor will work free of the dome housing. It is normal for the gasket that is wrapped around the combustor to fall apart during this process. New combustors are shipped with a new gasket.
4. With the combustor removed, you will see two bypass retainers on either side of the combustor opening within the dome. These retainers are not fixed in position and can fall into the firebox upon combustor removal. Ensure that they are put back into position before replacing the combustor. Use the screwdriver or pocket knife to scrape any old gasket from the surface areas of the dome. If you intend to reuse your existing combustor, you will need to order replacement combustor gasket. It is a good idea to have this combustor gasket on hand prior to performing this procedure.

5. The new combustor will already be wrapped in gasket. Note the 1″ wide masking tape – this will help to keep the leading edge of the gasket from snagging during installation. If you intend to reuse you original combustor, wrap the combustor gasket as you see here and use the 1″ masking tape around the front and rear perimeter. During the first fire the masking tape will burn off and the combustor gasket will swell to provide a tight seal. This seal ensures optimnal efficiency and performance. Do not burn the appliance without the combustor gasket installed.

6. Before installing, align the combustor within the opening of the dome housing. Slowly push the combustor in at the top and apply even pressure to the left and right corners. This will allow for a better view of the bottom edge for the final fitting. DO NOT FORCE THE COMBUSTOR INTO THE OPENING. TAKE YOUR TIME AND WORK IT INTO PLACE SLOWLY.

7. Once the combustor is fully reinserted into the opening of the dome housing, replace the flame shield. Note the flame shield sides are shaped like a triangle. The point of the triangle should
face down to install correctly. Do not operate your appliance
without the flame shield in place. The flame shield protects the face of the combustor against direct flame impingment and potential collisions when loading fuel.

8. When correctly installed, the flame shield will rest on the two tabs located on the dome guard and will lean slightly forward. Now that the combustor and flame shield have been properly reinstalled, the appliance can be relit.
A few reminders, do not burn anything other than dry, seasoned cordwood. Burning other materials may contaminate or ruin your new combustor. Also, remember to keep your firebox door gasket seal properly adjusted (please refer to the “LOADING DOOR TENSION ADJUSTMENT” section). Doing so will ensure optimal performance of both the appliance and the combustor.

Possible Cause: The combustor is coated with creosote burning material that produces substantial char and fly-ash. Solution: Only burn dry, seasoned wood. Do not burn materials such as garbage, gift wrap, or cardboard.
Possible Cause: Burning wet, pitchy wood or burning large amounts of small diameter wood with the bypass door closed without the catalytic thermometer needle in the ACTIVE zone. Solution: Burn dry, seasoned wood and do not close the bypass door until temperatures are high enough to initiate catalyst lightoff (indicated by the catalytic thermometer needle in the ACTIVE zone).
Possible Cause: Combustor not functioning. Solution: If proper burning procedures have been followed and this problem persists, replace the combustor with an OEM Blaze King combustor (failure to do so will void your warranty).

Page 31

PROBLEM: COMBUSTOR PEELING
Possible Cause: Over firing and flame impingement can yield extreme temperatures (above 1800F/1000°C) at combustor surface and can cause peeling. Solution: Avoid extreme temperatures by adjusting size of fuel loads. If peeling is severe, replace combustor.
The images to the right are examples of minor peeling (does not affect proper combustor function) and severe peeling (closed or plugged combustor that needs replacemnet). PROBLEM: CATALYTIC DEACTIVATION
Possible Cause: Burning improper fuels (ie. garbage, pressuretreated lumber, painted wood, etc.). Solution: Burn good quality, dry, seasoned wood. If proper burning procedures have been followed and this problem persists, replace the combustor with an OEM Blaze King combustor (failure to do so will void your warranty).

CATALYTIC COMBUSTOR

PROBLEM: COMBUSTOR MASKING
Possible Cause: The combustor is coated with a layer of fly-ash or soot from burning material that produces substantial char and fly-ash. Solution: When the appliance is cool to touch, clean the front face of the combustor with a soft-bristled brush or vacuum lightly (refer to COMBUSTOR CLEANING for proper procedure).

PROBLEM: THERMAL CRACKING
Possible Cause: Extreme temperature fluctuations (ie. opening loading door while the combustor is in the ACTIVE zone) can cause thermal shock which can lead to cracking. Solution: Avoid flooding a hot, active combustor with cool room air when reloading.
If cracking causes large pieces of the combustor to separate, replace the combustor with an OEM Blaze King combustor (failure to do so will void your warranty).
PROBLEM: MECHANICAL CRACKING
Possible Cause: Mishandling the combustor or operating the appliance without the proper gasket installed. Solution: Handle with care. Ensure combustor is wrapped with gasket upon reinstallation.
Possible Cause: Distortion of surrounding dome housing. Solution: The combustor should slide in and out of the dome housing with relative ease. If this is not the case, contact your dealer for further inspection.
PROBLEM: COMBUSTOR CRUMBLING
Possible Cause: Excess air leaking into the firebox. Solution: Ensure tight seal at loading door (see MAINTENANCE for instruction on gasket inspection).
Possible Cause: Excessive chimney draft. Solution: Use a monometer to check and ensure chimney draft is within manufacturer specifications. Adjusting the appliance thermostat can help regulate chimney draft.

TO PREVENT SERIOUS BURNS, DO NOT PERFORM ANY MAINTENANCE UNTIL THE APPLIANCE IS COOL. APPLIANCE SURFACES, INCLUDING THE GLASS AND ANY ATTACHED COMPONENT, WILL
REMAIN HOT FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME AFTER THE FIRE HAS BEEN PUT OUT.
RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE It is strongly recommended to complete the following tasks on a regular basis throughout the heating season: 1. Visually inspect Catalytic Combustor and clean as required (see “COMBUSTOR CLEANING”) 2. Clean behind internal baffles (where applicable) and inspect metal components for warping/distortion. 3. Check Catalytic Thermometer for proper calibration. 4. Check Thermostat for proper function. 5. Check Fan Assemblies for proper operation. 6. Remove all ash from firebox and ash drawer after final burn of season. 7. Check all gaskets for proper seal and adjust as required. 8. Inspect and clean the Venting System.
CATALYTIC THERMOMETER MAINTENANCE The catalytic thermometer probe (shaft) should be cleaned regularily. Ensure the fire is out and the appliance is cool, then remove the thermometer and wipe the probe clean. While removed, confirm the thermometer indicator needle points towards the bottom of the INACTIVE zone (allow the thermometer to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before checking). If the needle does not point towards the bottom of the INACTIVE zone, it may need adjustment. Grasp the probe with a pair of pliers then slightly loosen the bolt on the top of the dial. Turn the dial to align the needle to the bottom of the INACTIVE zone and then retighten the bolt. Once finished, reinsert the thermometer back into the appliance. Note: If your appliance is equipped with an optional fan kit, turn it off and wait 10 minutes before observing the catalytic thermometer reading.
THERMOSTAT MAINTENANCE Any thermostat maintenance must be completed by a certified installer. If the thermostat malfunctions, contact your dealer for replacement.
OPTIONAL FAN ASSEMBLY MAINTENANCE Fan assemblies should be inspected at the beginning of each burn season to ensure they are free from debris such as ash, dust, pet dander, lint, etc. The accumulation of such debris could prevent the fan blades/blower wheels from rotating freely and put excessive strain on the fan motors, ultimately leading to failure.
ASH REMOVAL Ashes should be removed any time they come within one inch of the door opening, though it is not advisable to completely remove all of the ashes as wood burns best on a bed of ashes around 1/2″ thick. When removing ashes, ensure the fire is out and the appliance is cool to touch. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground (outside), well away from all combustible materials, while awaiting final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Do not place other waste in this container.

NEVER STORE HOT ASHES IN A GARAGE OR BASEMENT. HOT ASHES WILL GENERATE CARBON MONOXIDE AND / OR FLAMMABLE GASES. THESE GASES MAY CAUSE SUFFOCATION AND POSSIBLE
DEATH.

LOADING DOOR TENSION ADJUSTMENT To tighten the loading door seal, use a 9/16″ wrench to loosen the retainer nut threaded onto the latch catch on the outer right face of the firebox. Once loose, tighten the nut on inside firebox (also threaded onto the latch catch) to secure the latch catch in a position closer to the firebox. Ensure the outer nut is tight and preform a paper test (see “DOOR GASKET PAPER TEST”) to ensure the proper seal was achieved. DO NOT FORCE THE NUT LOOSE. Use penetrating oil if necessary to make loosening the nut easier.
LOADING DOOR GASKET INSPECTION Inspect the loading door gasket for physical deterioration, missing sections, or obvious leakage. The appliance door flange should make a groove in the gasket material. The side of the gasket on the inside of the groove will be dark or black while the outer side will be light or white. Dark smudges on the outer side of the gasket may indicate an air leak. If the groove in the gasket is very shallow or if there is a heavy ash or creosote deposit along the bottom edge of the gasket, it may need to be replaced. Frayed or broken gasket material, or a gasket that is hard and unyielding, will also indicate a need for replacement. Any time a piece of gasket is missing or broken the entire gasket must be replaced. A way to physically check if the gasket needs replacing is by performing a paper test (see “DOOR GASKET PAPER TEST”).
LOADING DOOR GASKET REPLACEMENT If door gasket replacement is required, only replace with OEM door gasket ordered through your Blaze King dealer. This gasket will be properly sized and ready to install. Do not stretch or cut the gasket at any time during this installation. Ensure only high temperature silicone adhesive is used for this installation (do not use household silicone caulking). Blaze King recommends that your dealer perform this task:
1. Ensure the fire is out and the appliance is cooled to touch before removing the loading door. 2. Use a pair of pliers to pull the old door gasket out of the channel and dispose of it. 3. Clean the gasket channel of any risidual adhesive to ensure the new adhesive will adhere sufficiently. 4. To ensure proper fit, dry fit the new gasket by distributing it evenly around the frame and then remove. 5. Run a small bead of a high temperature silicone adhesive along the center of the gasket channel. 6. Starting in the lower right corner, insert the new gasket into the gasket channel. Be sure to distribute
the gasket evenly around the entire channel frame. 7. Allow the adhesive to dry for at least 1 hour before reinstalling and closing the loading door. 8. Confirm proper gasket installation by performing a paper test (see “DOOR GASKET PAPER TEST”).

DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE IF THE DOOR GASKET IS MISSING OR DAMAGED. OVER- FIRING MAY OCCUR WHICH CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE OR IGNITE CREOSOTE IN THE CHIMNEY WHICH
COULD LEAD TO A HOUSE FIRE CAUSING SERIOUS BODILY HARM.
DOOR GASKET PAPER TEST Perform this test when inspecting or replacing loading door gasket:
1. Ensure the fire is out and the appliance is cooled to touch. 2. Insert a piece of paper (ie. a dollar bill) into the door opening and then latch the door shut. 3. Pull the paper out of the door while noting any obvious resistance when doing so. 4. If no resistance is felt, adjust the door tension (see “LOADING DOOR TENSION ADJUSTMENT”). 5. Repeat this process around the perimeter of the door until consistent resistance is achieved.
DOOR GLASS GASKET INSPECTION To inspect the door glass gasket:
1. Ensure the fire is out and the appliance is cooled to touch. 2. Hold the glass by placing the palm of each hand on either side and try to move it; If the glass moves:
a. Inspect the glass retainers and ensure the screws holding the retainers in place are tight (hand tight plus 1/4 turn). If loose, retighten, but do not over tighten. b. Inspect the door glass gasket. If the gasket is frayed or missing sections, replace the gasket.
REFRAIN FROM STRIKING THE GLASS OR SLAMMING THE DOOR SHUT. DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE IF THE DOOR GLASS OR GASKET SEAL IS BROKEN. DOING SO MAY LEAD TO A RUN AWAY
FIRE WHICH COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE.
DOOR GLASS GASKET REPLACEMENT If door glass gasket replacement is required, only replace with OEM door glass gasket ordered through your Blaze King dealer. The OEM gasket will be ordered to size and ready to re-install. Do not stretch or cut the gasket at any time during this installation. Blaze King recommends that your dealer perform this task:
1. Ensure the fire is out and the appliance is cooled to touch. 2. Remove the old glass gasket. 3. Starting at the corner opposite of the “Blaze King” logo,
carefully wrap the gasket around the edges of the door glass, pressing firmly onto the sides of the glass with the gasket centered on the edge. Finish the wrapping with a 1/2″ overlap. Ensure the thickness of the gasket remains consistent and uniform. 4. Reposition the glass onto the door and then install the glass retainers with original fasteners. Ensure the glass is parallel to the frame and tighten the fasteners (hand tight plus 1/4 turn).

DOOR GLASS CLEANING The best way to keep the glass clean is to leave the appliance on high burn for a period of time after each reloading The moisture which is driven from a new load of wood contributes much of the creosote on the inside of the glass. Removing that moisture at the beginning of the burn cycle helps to keep the glass clean. Leaving the thermostat on a higher setting for 30 minutes to an hour before turning to low for an overnight burn will also help. Heavier deposits may require hand cleaning. Manual glass cleaning should be done when the appliance and glass are cool. DO NOT CLEAN THE GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT AND DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS TO CLEAN THE GLASS. Use a soft cloth. After using any cleaner, thoroughly rinse the glass with water to remove any deposits left by the cleaner. Failure to remove all traces of glass cleaner will result in the glass cleaner residue baking on. This residue may be very difficult to remove.
BYPASS DOOR GASKET INSPECTION This can be a difficult item to inspect, but to do so would be to visually note the amount of smoke exiting the chimney while the bypass door is both OPEN and CLOSED. There should be significantly less smoke when the door is in the CLOSED position. If this is not the case, the bypass gasket may need to be replaced. Note: This inspection could also yield a dead combustor, see “COMBUSTOR MONITORING”.

BYPASS DOOR GASKET REPLACEMENT

If bypass door gasket replacement is required, only replace with OEM 5/8″ fiber glass gasket ordered through

your Blaze King dealer. The OEM gasket will be ordered to size and ready to re-install. Do not stretch or cut

the gasket at any time during this installation. Ensure only THERMOSEAL® 1000SF high-temperature

resistant cement is used for this installation (do not use household silicone

caulking). Blaze King recommends that your dealer perform this task:

1. Ensure the fire is out and the appliance is cooled to touch

2. Remove the flue pipe from the appliance in order to have a clear view of the

bypass door (Fig. 13).

3. Remove the combustor (see “COMBUSTOR REPLACEMENT”).

4. After removing the combustor you will notice stainless bypass retainers on both

the left and right sides of the combustor opening (Fig. 14). They secure the bypass

door in position during operation. Remove the stainless bypass retainers and set

Fig. 13

aside.

5. Working down through the flue collar, unhinge the bypass door from the

bypass rod (rotating the bypass handle into a neutral position will help),

then rotate the bypass door 90 degrees to remove through the combustor

opening (Fig. 15).

6. Remove the old gasket and and clean away any risidual cement from the

gasket channel. 7. Apply the new high-temperature cement along the channel.

Fig. 14

8. Place the new gasket into the channel, tapping it down to seat it securely.

9. Apply high temp anti-seize lubricant to the under side of the bypass hook

(Fig. 16) and then reinstall the bypass door by following the previous steps

in reverse order.

10. Rotate the bypass handle several times to OPEN/CLOSE the bypass door

Fig. 15

to ensure smooth and proper operation. Once satisfied, reattach the flue pipe.

11. Reinstall stainless bypass retainers into combustor opening.

12. Refer back to “COMBUSTOR REPLACEMENT” to reinstall the combustor. Note: if

the gasket around the combustor is damaged, it will have to be replaced.

VENTING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE The entire chimney system must be cleaned and inspected regularily, especially during the coldest months of the burn season. The most efficient method to clean the chimney is to “sweep” it using a hard brush. Brush downwards so soot and creosote residues will come off the inner surface and fall to the bottom of the chimney where they can be removed easily. Ensure the bypass door is OPEN prior to chimney cleaning so soot and creosote fall into the firebox. Once cleaned, inspect the chimney for any possible damage. If damage is present, the chimney section in question must be replaced.
CREOSOTE FORMATION AND REMOVAL When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. These vapors condense in the relatively cooler chimney flue of a slow burning fire and when ignited, make an extremely hot fire. Be aware that the hotter the fire, the less creosote is deposited. The flue pipe and chimney should be inspected regularly during the heating season, until a safe frequency for cleaning is established to determine if a creosote build up has occurred. If creosote accumulation is excessive, cleaning is required. It is recommended that a professional chimney sweep does the cleaning. Both the chimney and the appliance have to be cleaned at least once a year or as often as necessary.

A CHIMNEY FIRE CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR VENTING SYSTEM, WHICH CAN ONLY BE REPAIRED BY REPLACING THE DAMAGED COMPONENTS. FAILURE TO REPAIR COULD LEAD TO FURTHER
PROPERTY DAMAGE. DAMAGE FROM A CHIMNEY FIRE IS NOT COVERED BY THE LIMITED WARRANTY.
RUN-AWAY OR CHIMNEY FIRE CAUSES: 1. Using incorrect fuel or small fuel pieces which would normally be used as kindling. 2. Leaving the door ajar too long and creating extreme temperatures as the air rushes in the open door. 3. Improperly installed or worn gaskets. 4. Creosote build up in the chimney. SOLUTIONS: 1. Do not burn treated or processed wood, coal, charcoal, colored paper, or cardboard. 2. Be careful not to over fire the appliance by leaving the door open too long after the initial start-up. 3. Replace worn, dried out (inflexible) gaskets. 4. Have your chimney cleaned regularly. WHAT TO DO IF A RUN-AWAY OR CHIMNEY FIRE STARTS: 1. Close the thermostat by rotating the knob fully counter clockwise and ensure the firebox door is closed. 2. Call the local fire department. 3. Examine the chimney, attic, and roof of the house to see if any part has become hot enough to catch fire. If necessary, hose area down with a fire extinguisher or water from a garden hose. 4. Do not operate the appliance again until you are certain the chimney has not been damaged

TROUBLESHOOTING

KE40

Your Blaze King is designed to allow a wide selection of heat output levels. If you begin to lose control of the amount of
heat the stove is emitting, determine the cause early so that major problems may be avoided.
The six major needs of a well-controlled fire are:
1. Knowledgeable operator. 2. Adequate air supply. 3. Firewood of good quality and proper size. 4. Catalytic combustor in good condition. 5. Clean chimney, properly sized and installed. 6. Door gasket tight and firm.
Considering all of the above, number one is the most important for safe and efficient operation of any woodstove. Please study the operation instructions carefully. Consult your BLAZE KING dealer if you have any questions not answered in
this manual.

All of the six above mentioned needs are interrelated. A deficiency in any one will affect all of the others. If you encounter a problem, determine the source of the problem and then follow-up by checking the other needs as possible contributing
factors.

PROBLEM: Chimney Fire

CAUSE Act immediately regardless of cause

SOLUTION Turn the thermostat to lowest setting, check loading door to be sure it is tightly closed. Call Fire Department.

After the fire is out, have your chimney and flue connector inspected by a certified chimney sweep. A damaged masonry chimney should be repaired or rebuilt. A prefabricated chimney (factory built) that is damaged should be replaced. Any damage to the flue connector should be corrected before the system is used again.

Possible causes of a chimney fire, and remedies for those causes, can be found further in this section: “Excessive Creosote Formation”, and “Spots of Creosote Accumulation in Chimney or Flue Pipe”.

PROBLEM: Not enough heat. CAUSE Green or wet wood. Not enough fuel in stove.
Obstruction in chimney or cap screen. Combustor plugged or coated. Combustor not functioning.
Thermostat set too low.

SOLUTION Use a moisture meter to ensure yuo are burning seasoned wood. Don’t be afraid to FULLY load the stove. A FULL load of wood won’t burn any hotter than the thermostat is set.

PROBLEM: The combustor temperature cannot be controlled. Turning the thermostat down often makes the combustor temperature go up.
CAUSE Turning the thermostat down, particularly in the first half of the burn cycle, causes the fire to emit more smoke, which is fuel for the combustor. The combustor temperature therefore climbs for up to several hours. This is normal, and is of no concern. As long as only the combustor temperature is elevated, there is nothing to worry about.

PROBLEM: Smoke spills from door opening when loading fuel

CAUSE Spark arrestor screen on cap plugged.
Chimney too cold.

SOLUTION Clean spark arrestor screen to bare metal wire.
