Your PACIFIC ENERGY heater is designed for maximum overall efficiency at a moderate fi ring
rate. Overfi ring is hazardous and a waste of fuel. Too slow a burn contributes to creosote
buildup and lowers combustion efficiency.
NOTE: Left and Right as referred to in this manual are considered your left and
right when facing the front of the woodstove.
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 too green or freshly cut hardwoods.
Wood should be properly air dried (seasoned) for six months or more. Wet or undried wood
will cause the fi re to smoulder and produce large amounts of creosote. Wet wood also
produces very little heat and tends to go out often.
DO NOT BURN :
• Salt water wood *
• Treated wood
• Wet or green wood
• Coal/charcoal
• Garbage/Plastic *
• Solvents
* These materials contain chlorides which will rapidly destroy metal surfaces and
void warranty.
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.
