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 annually by using a vacumn on the intakes on the side
of the blower to remove any dust and debris. The blower is accessed through the access cover
located in the bottom of the firebox.

- 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

excessive smoke generation. Wood coals create very
little creosote-producing smoke.

2. The cooler the surface over which the wood smoke is pass-
ing, 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
and must be lived with. Regular inspection and cleaning is
the solution. The use of dry, seasoned wood and ample
combustion air will help to minimize the buildup.
Chimney Fires
The result of excessive creosote buildup is a chimney fire.
Chimney fires are dangerous. Temperatures inside the chim-
ney can exceed 2000° F(1093˚C). This causes much higher
than normal temperatures on its exterior surfaces. Thus
ignition of nearby or touching combustible material is more
likely during a chimney fire. Proper clearances are critical
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

Crate Removal
1) Carefully remove wood top and supports.
2) Remove the screws securing the fireplace to the pallet(4).
3) Remove from pallet bottom.

Warning: Under no circumstances is this heater to be installed

in a makeshift or "temporary" manner. It may be fired only
after the following conditions have been met.

- DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE

SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.

- DO NOT INSTALL IN A SLEEPING ROOM.

- 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.

Locating The FP30 Fireplace

The best location to install your fireplace is determined by
considering the location of windows, doors, and the traffic flow
in the room where the FP30 Fireplace is located, allowing space
in front of the unit for the hearth extension and the mantel, and
taking into consideration the location of the chimney. Ideally, you
should choose a location where the chimney will pass through
the house without cutting floor or roof joists.
Check the adequacy of the floor by first estimating the weight of
the fireplace system(approx. 650lbs(295Kg)). Next measure the
area the fireplace will occupy. Note the floor construction and
consult your local building code to determine if any additional
support is needed. In most cases, no additional floor support is
needed for the FP30 fireplace.

The FP30 fireplace may be installed directly on a non-combusti-

ble- floor or on a raised base. A minimum of 84" measured from
Series A
the base of the appliance to the ceiling is required.

The FP30 fireplace may not be installed in a factory built fireplace

unless tested with the fireplace.

Wind direction and magnitude can play a factor in the chimney

performance. Therefore the chimney outlet position is important
when locating the fireplace.

The chimney should:

• Penetrate the highest part of the roof.

• Be installed as far as possible from roof offsets, trees or any
other obstructions that may cause wind turbulence or back
drafts in the chimney.
• The least amount of offsets (elbows) possible.

FIG. #12
The chimney for the FP30 can be installed with a maximum
of four 45° elbows(in Canada) and four 30° elbows(in
U.S.A.) as shown in Fig. #12.

Installation:
1. Install the first elbow; turn it in the required direction. It
is required to secure connections with three (3) #8 x ½"
(12 mm) metal screws.

2. Install the necessary chimney lengths to achieve the 15'

required offset. Lock the chimney lengths together ac- 30° or 45°
cording to the chimney manufacturer’s instructions. It is ELBOWS
required to use three (3) #8 x ½" (12 mm) metal screws
at every connection of the chimney. If the offset length is
made of two (2) chimney lengths or more, many chimney
manufacturers require that you use an offset or roof sup-
port halfway up the offset. If penetrating a wall, install a
wall radiation shield supplied by the chimney manufacturer
and install according to the manufacturers installation
instructions.

3. Use another elbow to turn the chimney vertically, Secure

the elbow.

4. Use a plumb bob to line up the centre of the hole. Cut a

hole for the chimney in the ceiling/floor. Frame the hole as
described on page 16 and as per chimney manufacturer's
instructions.

5. From below, install a firestop supplied by the chimney

manufacturer.

Combustion Air FIG. #13
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.

1. Outside combustion air supply - Outside air may be

drawn from either side of the stove.

To draw outside combustion air, remove the cover plate

on the side you wish to draw the air from and connect the
outside combustion air adapter provided (Fig. #13).

Outside Combustion Air Adapter

The adapter is only required if outside combustion air is
used.

Installation:

Remove cover plate from the side of the unit closest to the
exterior wall in which you will be connecting the outside
air inlet. To change from side to rear inlets, remove the
screws holding the corner plate to the air jacket. Gently pull
corner plate from the unit and disconnect the flex vent, flip
over the corner plate and reattach the flex vent. Reattach
the corner plate to the air jacket. Place the adapter over
the 4" round hole with the collar facing out and attach with
screws previously removed with the cover plate.
Outside Air
Cut or drill a 4" diameter hole in the closest exterior wall Adapter
or in the floor anywhere inside the chase. Cover the hole
with a 4" x 4" (100 mm x 100 mm), 20GA wire mesh
with minimum1/4"(6mm) X 1/4"(6mm) spacing, rodent
screen and staple/nail in place. Provide water protection
FIG. #14
as required. Attach 4"(102mm) venting (not supplied) to
adapter

WARNING: This hole must get its air from the outdoors and
be finished with an approved vent cap. 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. Check local building codes for instruction on
sealing the vent cap at the penetration point of the build-
ing. The combustion air inlet ducts can not terminate in
an attic space or garage.

2. Room air supply - Remove the cover plate from the front
of the unit underneath the ashlip. The stove will now draw
its air from the room through this opening and into the
firebox intake. You must ensure the room has adequate
replacement air to operate the unit.

WARNING: This unit is not designed to be operated with

the firing door open. In addition to the obvious hazard of
sparks landing on combustibles, an open fire door will WARNING: THE COMBUSTION AIR INLET

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 living space.
