Safety
CAUTION: Never use gasoline, gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal
lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in this
heater. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it is in use.
Instruct all members of your family on the safe operation of the heater.
Ensure they have enough knowledge of the entire system if they are expected to
operate it. Stress the section on chimney fires and the importance of
following the steps outlined “In Case of Chimney Fire”.
Chimney Smoke and Creosote Formation
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which
combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapours condense
in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow burning fire. As a result,
creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote
makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney connector and chimney should be
inspected periodically (at least once every two months) during the heating
season to determine if a creosote buildup has occurred. If creosote has
accumulated (3 mm. or more), it should be removed to reduce the risk of a
chimney fire.
1. Highest smoke densities and emissions occur when a large amount of wood is
added to a bed of hot coals and the air inlet is closed. The heated wood
generates smoke, but without ample air, the smoke cannot burn. Smoke-free,
clean burning requires small fuel loads, two or three logs at a time or 1/4 to
1/2 of fuel load and leaving the air inlet relatively wide open, especially
during the first 10 to 30 minutes after each loading, when most of the smoke
generating reactions are occurring. After 30 minutes or so, the air inlet can
be turned down substantially without excessive smoke generation. Wood coals
create very little creosote-producing smoke.
2. The cooler the surface over which the wood smoke is passing, the more
creosote will be condensed. Wet or green wood contributes significantly to
creosote formation as the excess moisture that is boiled off cools the fire,
making it difficult for the tars and gases to ignite, thus creating dense
smoke and poor combustion. This moisture-laden smoke cools the chimney,
compounding the problem by offering the smoke the ideal place to condense.
In summary, a certain amount of creosote is inevitable. Regular inspection and
cleaning is the solution. The use of dry, seasoned wood and ample combustion
air will help to minimize annoying smoke emissions and creosote buildup.
Chimney Fires
The dangerous side effect of excessive creosote buildup is a chimney fire.
This causes much higher than normal temperatures in the chimney and on its
exterior surfaces. Temperatures inside the chimney can exceed 2000°F (1100°C).
Ignition of nearby or touching combustible material is more likely during a
chimney fire. Proper clearances are critical to prevent damage during such a
fire.
Chimney fires are easy to detect; they usually involve one or more of the
following:
· Flames and sparks shooting out of the top of the chimney · A roaring sound ·
Vibration of the chimney

SUMMIT-LE_310119-28
To Avoid a Chimney Fire 1. Burn wood cleanly. Do not burn wet wood or turn
down the unit too quickly after loading.
2. Do not let creosote build up to a point where a chimney fire is possible.
3. Do not have fires in the heater that may ignite chimney fires. These are
excessively hot fires, such as when burning household trash, cardboard,
Christmas tree limbs, or even ordinary fuel wood; (eg. with a full load on a
hot bed of coals and with the air inlet wide open for more time than is needed
to completely char a fresh fuel load.)
4. The Chimney and connector pipe should be inspected /cleaned periodicaly.
In Case of a Chimney Fire
1. Prepare to evacuate to ensure everyone’s safety. Have a well understood
plan of action for evacuation. Have a place outside where everyone is to meet.
2. Close air inlet on stove.
3. Call local fire department. Have a fire extinguisher handy. Contact your
local municipal or provincial fire authority for further information on how to
handle a chimney fire. It is most important that you have a clearly understood
plan on how to handle a chimney fire.
4. After the chimney fire is out, the chimney must be cleaned and checked for
stress and cracks before starting another fire. Also check combustibles around
the chimney and the roof.
· The services of a competent or certified installer, (certified by the Wood
Energy Technical Training program (WETT) – in Canada, Hearth Education
Foundation (HEARTH) – in U.S.A.,) are strongly recommended.
Curing of the Paint Finish To acheive the best finish, the paint on your stove
must be baked on. When burning your stove for the first 2-3 times it is very
important that the room be well ventilated. Open all windows and doors. Smoke
and fumes caused by the curing process may cause discomfort to some
individuals.
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a fire. Do
not burn garbage, or flammable fluids such as gasoline, naptha, or engine oil.

100000302
Operation
CAUTION: Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing and furniture away.
Contact may cause skin burns.
WARNING: Always keep loading door closed when burning. This heater is not designed for open door burning.
WARNING: No alteration or modification of the combustion air control assembly is permitted. Any tampering will void warranty and could be very hazardous.
WARNING: Do not use grates or andirons to elevate the fuel. Burn directly on the fire bricks. Replace broken or missing bricks. Failure to do so may create a hazardous condition.
Wood Selection
This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiency and lower emissions generally result when burning air-dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods.
Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months or more. Wet or undried wood will cause the fire to smoulder and produce large amounts of smoke and creosote. Wet wood also produces very little heat and tends to go out often. Wood should be stored under cover away from open flame or heat sources.
DO NOT BURN : · Salt water wood · Wet or green wood · Garbage · Lawn
clippings/yard waste · Railroad ties · Materials containing rubber, including
tires · Construction or demolition debris · Waste petroleum products, paints,
paint thin-
ners, or asphalt products
· Treated wood · Coal/charcoal · Solvents · Unseasoned wood · Manure or animal
remains · Materials containing plastic · Materials containing asbestos · Paper
products, cardboard, plywood, or
particleboard.
- These materials contain chlorides which will rapidly destroy metal surfaces and void warranty.
Burning these materials may result in the release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.
Do not burn anything but wood. Other fuels, eg. charcoal, can produce large amounts of carbon monoxide, a tasteless, odourless gas that can kill. Under no circumstances should you attempt to barbecue in this heater.
The prohibition against burning these materials does not prohibit the use of fire starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust, wax and similar substances for the purpose of starting a fire in an affected wood heater.
How to Test Your Wood
Add a large piece of wood to the stove when it has a good large bed of coals. It is dry if it is burning on more than one side within one minute. It is damp if it turns black and lights within three minutes. If it sizzles, hisses and blackens without igniting in five minutes it is soaked and should not be burnt

Lighting a fire
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a fire.
1. Adjust air control to “High” position(all the way to the left) and open
door.
2. Place crumpled newspaper in the centre of the heater and criss-cross with
several pieces of dry kindling. Add a few small pieces of dry wood on top.
3. Ignite the paper and leave the door ajar approimately 1/2″(13mm) –
1″(25mm) until the wood kindling is fully engulfed in flame.
4. After the kindling is fully engulfed add a few small logs. Close door.
5. Begin normal operation after a good coal base exists and wood has charred.
Normal Operation
WARNING: This wood heater has a manufacturer-set 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 the
operating instructions in this manual.
1. Set air control to a desired setting. If smoke pours down across the glass
(waterfall effect) this indicates you have shut the control down too soon or
you are using too low a setting. The wide range control panel makes finding
the desired setting for your application easy. As every home’s heating needs
vary (ie. insulation, windows, climate, etc.) the proper setting can only be
found by trial and error and should be noted for future burns.
2. To refuel, adjust air control to high, and give the fire time to brighten.
Open the door slowly, this will prevent backpuffing.
3. Use wood of different shape, diameter and length (up to 18″(457mm)). Load
your wood endwise and try to place the logs so that the air can flow between
them. Always use dry wood.
4. Do not load fuel to a height or in such a manner that would be hazardous
when opening the door.
5. For extended or overnight burns, unsplit logs are preferred. Remember to
char the wood completely on maximum setting before adjusting air control for
overnight burn.
· Burn wood only, dry and well seasoned. The denser or heavier the wood when
dry, the greater its heat value. This is why hardwoods are generally
preferred. Green or wet wood will cause a rapid buildup of creosote. If you
feel it is necessary to burn wet or unseasoned wood, do so only with the air
inlet set open enough to maintain a good strong fire and fairly high chimney
temperatures. Do not attempt to burn overnight using green wood or wet wood.
Wet wood can cause up to 25% drop in heater output, as well as contributing
significantly to creosote buildup.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER: Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed
heater design specifications can result in permanent damage to the heater and
chimney. A glowing red, top or vent pipe are indications of overfiring.
Failure to recitify an over firing condition can be hazardous and may void the
manufacturer’s warranty.

100000302
Restarting After Extended or Overnight Burns
1. Open door and rake hot embers towards the front of the heater. Add a
couple of dry, split logs on top of embers, close door.
2. Adjust air control to high and in just a few minutes, logs should begin
burning.
3. After wood has charred, reset air control to desired setting.
4. To achieve maximum firing rate, set control to high “H”. Do not use this
setting other than for starting or preheating fresh fuel loads.
Proper Draft
1. Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the
chimney. The amount of draft in your chimney depends on the length of the
chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors.
2. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. An
uncontrollable burn or a glowing red stove part or chimney indicates excessive
draft.
3. Inadequate draft may cause backpuffing into the room and plugging of the
chimney. Smoke leaking into the room through appliance and chimney connector
joints indicates inadequate draft.
Remember the correct air inlet setting is affected by variables such as type
of wood, outside temperature, chimney size and weather conditions.
Ash Removal
Caution: Ashes are to be removed only when the heater is cold. Whenever ashes
get 3″(76mm) to 4″(102mm) deep in your firebox, and when fire has burned down
and cooled, remove excess ashes. Leave an ash bed approximately 1″ (25 mm)
deep on the firebox bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.
Ash Cleanout system (optional):
The ash dump handle is located under the ash lip on the left hand side. To
operate ash dump, pull handle out 1/2″(13mm) and turn clockwise. This will
unlock the ash dump and allow it to open. Hold handle open while pulling ashes
into the opening. Avoid large embers as these still contain heat value.
Release handle and push in to lock. Ensure ash dump door is properly engaged.
Fill the cavity with the remaining ash level with the firebox floor. Lift and
pull out ashpan and discard ashes into metal container. Replace ashpan and
ensure it is seated properly.
Do not burn with ash dump door open. Doing so will create a hazardous
condition. Always leave about 1″(25mm) of ash when cleaning.
Disposal of Ashes
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The
closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on
the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.
If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed,
they should be retained in closed container until all cinders have thoroughly
cooled. Other waste should not be placed in this container.

Maintenance
WARNING: Never use chemicals or any other volatile liquid to start a fire. Do
not burn garbage, or flammable fluids such as gasoline, naptha, or engine oil.
WARNING: ONLY USE MATERIALS SUPPLIED BY MANUFACTURER WHEN DOING MAINTENANCE OR
REPLACEMENTS.
1. If glass becomes darkened through slow burning or poor wood, it can
readily be cleaned with fireplace glass cleaner when stove is cold. Never
scrape with an object that might scratch the glass. The type and amount of
deposit on the glass is a good indication of the flue pipe and chimney
buildup. A light brown dusty deposit that is easily wiped off usually
indicates good combustion and dry, well-seasoned wood and therefore relatively
clean pipes and chimney. On the other hand, a black greasy deposit that is
difficult to remove is a result of wet and green wood and too slow a burning
rate. This heavy deposit is building up at least as quickly in the chimney.
2. DOOR GASKETS – The gasket used by Pacific Energy (7/8″(22mm) medium
density fiberglass rope) requires only light pressure to seal. This will
prolong seal life. It is important that the door seal be maintained in good
condition. Periodically inspect seals and replace if necessary. Follow the
instructions included in the DR46.GLKIT kit, obtainable from your nearest
Pacific Energy dealer.
3. DOOR GLASS – Do not slam loading door or otherwise impact glass. When
closing door, make sure that no logs protrude to impact the glass. If the
glass gets cracked or broken, it must be replaced before using the stove.
Replacement glass can be obtained from your dealer. Use 17-1/2″(445mm) x
9-1/2″(241mm) x 5 mm. Ceramic glass only. Do not substitute with any other
type.
· To remove broken glass, undo the four retaining screws and remove clamps and
frame, noting position for re-assembly. Remove all particles of glass . Be
careful as they are very sharp. Install new glass complete with gasket.
Replace frame, clamps and screws.
CAUTION: – do not overtighten, tighten screws very carefully – do not clean
glass when hot – do not use abrasive cleaners on glass
4. The area where boost combustion air enters the firebox must be kept clear
of excessive ash buildup which will block air flow. This area is at the front
of the firebox.
5. Do not store wood within heater installation clearances, or within the
space required for fuel loading and ash removal. Keep the area around the
heater clean and free of loose combustibles, furniture, newspapers, etc.
6. If the plated door requires cleaning, use mild soap and water only. Use of
abrasive cleaners will void warranty.
7. Establish a routine for the fuel, woodburning and firing technique. Check
daily for creosote buildup until experience shows how often you need to clean
to be safe.
8. Be aware that the hotter the fire, the less creosote is deposited. Weekly
cleaning may be necessary in mild weather, even though monthly cleaning is
usually enough in the coldest months when burning rates are higher. When wood
is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapours, which combine
with expelled moisture to form creosote.

Maintenance Checks
Check the following parts for damage such as cracks, excessive corrosion,
burned out sections and excessive warping: (See website for descriptions and
more detail)
Weekly:
· Firebrick – Visual, for cracking. · Door Gasket – sagging, placement,
damage.
Monthly
· Brick rail tabs and brick rails. · Air riser tube in the back of the
firebox. · Back side of airwash chamber. · Baffle locking pin. · Boost tube
cover.
When Cleaning the Chimney System:
· Top baffle board/blanket. · Baffle. · Top heat shield and mounting bolt. ·
Baffle Gasket. · Brick Rails. · Manifold.
Blower:
· The blower should be cleaned out a minimum every six months by using a
vacumn on the grill openings in the back and bottom of the blower casing to
remove any dust and debris.
Baffle:
· Some warping of the baffle is normal(up to 1/4″ or .65cm). Replace if the
baffle has permanent warping greater than this or has cracking or breakage.
· Please contact your Dealer if you experience any of the damage listed above.
Continuing to operate your stove with broken parts may accelerate damage to
other parts and may void your warranty
Baffle Removal
Chimney connector pipe should be disconnected from stove to clean and inspect.
Only if this is not possible should you remove baffle assembly.
DO NOT OPERATE WITH BAFFLE ASSEMBLY OR INSULATION REMOVED.
Removal
Remove retaining pin at the back top of the firebox, just under the baffle.
Lift baffle up and pull forward to disconnect from the supply tube. Tilt
baffle sideways to drop down and remove from firebox. Inspect gasket between
baffle and supply tube. If necessary, replace with gasket #139.5 available
from your Pacific Energy dealer. Re-install baffle assembly in reverse order.
The two side pieces of insulation must be tight against the siderails.

Installation Procedure
1. Select the position for your wood stove based on the clearances diagram.
Position the stove and floor protection.
2. Mark the position for the hole in the ceiling and roof by using a string
and plumb-bob hanging over the exact center of the stoves flue pipe.
3. Check that the intended location will not interfere with floor joists,
ceiling joists or rafters before proceeding further. Adjust if necessary and
reconfirm the clearance’s from the stove to combustibles.
4. Carefully follow the directions of the listed chimney for installation of
the chimney system from the ceiling through to the rain cap. This may include
framing in holes etc.
5. Start installing smoke pipe (chimney connector), slip crimped edge of the
pipe inside the stove collar. Use holes provided in collar to secure pipe with
two screws.
6. Install the remaining lengths of pipe one on top of the other up to the
finished height of the chimney and using the manufacturers approved adapter,
secure to each other. A slip section can make this easier.
Combustion Air
Intake or combustion air can be supplied to the stove in one of two ways.
Consult your local building code or CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid-
Fuel-Burning Appliances and Equipment before proceeding.
Outside air supply – (Necessary for mobile home installation, optional for
residential installation.)
To draw outside air through the floor – This hole must get its air from a
ventilated crawl space or be extended with duct to the outdoors (see Figure
3, Page 7). The use of outside combustion air for residential installation
requires the unit to be secured to the structure to prevent dislodging of the
air duct.
· Leg Model: Cut or drill a hole in the floor, (large enough to fit 4″ metal
flex venting) behind the ash box enclosure. Once the stove is in place, attach
the 4″ Intake Starter to the Ash Box Enclosure. Connect to the floor with the
4″(100mm) i.d. metal flex pipe.
· Pedestal Model: Cut or drill a 4″ (100mm) diameter hole in the floor
anywhere inside the perimeter of the pedestal base. Cover the hole with a 4″ x
4″ (100 mm x 100 mm) rodent screen and staple/nail in place. Leave the cover
over the hole on the back of the Pedestal. Place the stove over the hole.
To draw outside air from behind the stove, Use a 4″(100mm) Air intake. Cut or
drill the recomeneded size hole through a wall behind the unit.
· Install the 4″ Intake Starter over the hole in the rear of the Ash Box
enclosure. Attach metal flex between the starter and the Air Intake.
· Pedestal Model: Remove the cover plate from the rear of the pedestal and
install the cover plate over the hole located under the Pedestal. Install the
4″ Intake Starter over the hole in the rear. Attach metal flex between the
starter and the wall inlet.
Room air supply – The stove will draw its air from the room through the
opening in the Ash Box Enclosure and into the firebox intake.
Note:The living space around the heater must be well ventilated with good air
circulation. Anything that may cause a negative pressure can cause gases or
fumes to be pulled into the living area. During extremely cold weather, and
especially when burning at very slow rates, the upper parts of the exposed
chimney may ice up, partially blocking the flue gases. If blockage occurs,
flue gases may enter the living space.

Optional Blower
The optional blower kit (kit #WODC.BLOWB) is equipped with a three prong power
cord and may be installed at any time. Follow installation instructions
supplied with the kit. Route power supply cord away from heater.
Electrical rating: 115 volts A.C.-1.02 amps. Fan output rating: 140 CFM
Blower Operation
Proper blower speed matched with air control setting will ensure peak
performance from your stove. Operate as follows:
· Air control set to “L” (low), operate blower speed control on “Low”. · Air
control set between “L” and “H” (low and high), operate blower speed control
at desired setting.
Automatic: To operate the blower automatically, set the rocker switch on the
side of the fan housing to “Auto” and set the speed control to desired
setting. This will allow the fan to turn on as the stove heats up to operating
temperature. It will also shut the blower off after the fire has gone out and
the unit cooled to below a useful heat output range.
Manual: To manually operate the blower, set the rocker switch to “Man” and set
the speed control to desired setting. This will bypass the sensing device and
allow full control of the blower. Switching from “Auto” to “Man” or selecting
speed may be done anytime.

1. Begin by placing the 2 “E” bricks into the rear corners of the firebox floor (Figure 20). These trimmed bricks will fit around the two bolts coming up in the back corners. Continue by placing 2 “D” bricks beside the “E” bricks and the short “C” brick in the center up against the baffle tube (Figure 21). Eliminate any gaps between the bricks by shifting the bricks in toward the center of the firebox.
2. On units with an ash dump, place 4 “D” bricks along the front row; 3
bricks on one side of the ash dump and 1 brick on the other side. Use the “A”
and “B” bricks to fill in the area around the ash dump (Figure 22).
· If an ash dump is not installed, use the extra “D” brick instead of the “A”
and “B” bricks to fill in this space. Eliminate any gaps between the bricks by
shifting the bricks in towards the center of the firebox.
