Safety Precautions
FOR SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION OF YOUR “ENVIRO” WOODSTOVE,
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
● Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new heater. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in property damage, personal injury, and even death.
● If this appliance is not properly installed, operated and maintained a serious house fire could result. Do
not use any makeshift materials during installation.
● Never place wood, paper, furniture, drapes or other combustible materials near the stove, or let children
or pets touch it when it is hot.
● Operate only with the door and ash pan tightly closed and burn wood directly on the stove floor. Do not
operate if the door glass is broken or a gasket is missing or damaged. Do not alter the combustion air
control valves. Dangerous overfiring could occur which could ignite creosote in the chimney or cause
a house fire.
● At least 12 inches 2 (77.4 cm 2 ) of fresh outside air should be admitted into the room or directly to the
stove through a 4 inches (10.16 cm) diameter pipe. It would be dangerous to operate the stove with
the combustion-air inlet closed.
● Do not burn coal or charcoal as there is a danger of carbon monoxide being produced. Do not use
chemical fluids to start or re-fresh the fire. Do not burn garbage or flammable fluids such as gasoline,
grease, naphtha or engine oil. Never let the stove become hot enough to get any part red or glowing
red.
● Burning wet unseasoned wood could cause excessive creosote accumulation. When ignited it could
cause a chimney fire that could result in a serious house fire.
● Do not use grates, andirons or any other methods to support or raise the fire up off the hearth of the
appliance.
● In installations where there is constant or frequent high winds, install a flue damper to reduce the effect
that high winds have on increasing the draft. A significant increase in draft due to high winds may
cause your unit to overfire, which could be hazardous and will void the warranty.
