MINIMIZING CREOSOTE FORMATION
CAUTION: SLOW BURNING FIRES FOR
EXTENDED USE OR BURNING GREEN WOOD
MAY CAUSE EXCESSIVE CREOSOTE BUILD-
UP. IGNITION OF CREOSOTE OR OVERFIRING
COULD CAUSE A CHIMNEY FIRE. CHIMNEY
FIRES BURN EXTREMELY HOT AND MAY
IGNITE SURROUNDING COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS. IN CASE OF A CHIMNEY FIRE,
CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT IMMEDIATELY!
See "MAINTENANCE" on page 18 for an explanation
on Creosote formation and removal. To slow the build
up of creosote within your chimney, comply with the
following guidelines:
• Burn only the recommended fuel "APPROVED FUEL"
on page 13.
• Do not mix green or wet wood with the approved
fuel. Wood that does not ignite but instead hisses,
sizzles, and blackens is definitely too wet. It will
cause accelerated creosote build up in chimney and
will also reduce the heat output of the stove.
• Always check for creosote deposit once every two
months and have your chimney cleaned at least
once a year.
• If a chimney or creosote fire occurs DO NOT open
the door keep the door closed. Wait for the fire
to go out and the heater to cool, then inspect the
chimney for damage. If no damage results, perform
a chimney cleaning to ensure no more creosote
deposits are remaining in the chimney.
CAUTION: A CHIMNEY FIRE MAY CAUSE
IGNITION OF WALL STUDS OR RAFTERS
WHICH WERE ASSUMED TO BE A SAFE
DISTANCE AWAY FROM THE CHIMNEY. IF
A CHIMNEY FIRE OCCURS, HAVE YOUR
CHIMNEY INSPECTED BY A QUALIFIED
EXPERT BEFORE USING AGAIN.
DISPOSAL OF ASHES
Whenever ash accumulates within the fire box or ash
pan to a height of 3-4 inches:
1. After ashes have cooled, remove excess ashes and
empty into a suitable container.
NOTE: You may also purchase a Ash Vacuum,
model# AV65GALB/AV65GALSS.
Single Burn Rate Wood Fire Stove
2. Leave an ash bed approximately 1 inch deep on the
firebox bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.
3. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with
a tight fitting lid
and moved outdoors immediately.
The closed container of ashes should be placed
on a noncombustible 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 the closed container until all cinders have
thoroughly cooled.
4. Other waste shall not be placed in ash containers.
CAUTION: ASHES COULD CONTAIN HOT
EMBERS EVEN AFTER TWO DAYS WITHOUT
OPERATING THE STOVE.
