Thank you for purchasing this fine product from England’s Stove Works! England's Stove Works was started, and is still owned by, a family that believes strongly in a "Do It Yourself" spirit – that’s one reason you found this product at your favorite “Do It Yourself” store.

CAUTION If you have any doubt concerning your ability to complete your installation in a professional-like manner after reading these instructions, you should obtain the services of an installer who is versed in all aspects as to the correct and safe installation. Do not use temporary, makeshift compromises during installation. BEFORE INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE 1. HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS. 2.
WHY THE CORRECT FLUE SIZE IS IMPORTANT: 6” “Draft” is the force that 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. Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. An uncontrolled burn or a glowing red part or chimney connector can indicate excessive draft.
FLUE SYSTEM 1. Existing Flue System If you have chosen a freestanding unit, this stove is designed to connect to an existing flue system, such as masonry or a pre-manufactured Class A flue system. If you have a masonry flue system, the inner liner should be inspected carefully for cracks; if there is no liner in your chimney, we recommend you install a steel liner or have one installed. If you have an existing pre-manufactured system the inner liner should be inspected for warping or buckling.
Follow all venting system manufacturer’s installation requirements AND their required clearances. INSTALLATION APPLICATIONS Illustration 1 NOTE: 1. Horizontal run not to exceed 6’. 2. Total flue length should not exceed 25’. (Exterior) Wall Supported 3. Floor protection required: Min. size 39” x 52.5”. 4. Always check local codes for clearances, installation, etc. Lined with clay tile or other liner 18.0” Min. 18.0” Min. Masonry Chimney Single Wall Chimney Connector 16.0” Min. See Note (3) 16.
INSTALLATION APPLICATIONS, Cont’d.
Pre-Manufactured Flue System: In the past few years pre-manufactured flue systems have become very popular, because this type system is easily installed and, when done correctly, is very safe. There are many pre-manufactured flue systems on the market, and when making your choice it should be U.L., B.O.C.A. or I.C.B.O. approved. Any of these systems are constructed of the proper materials and meet the proper safety standards. Your local dealer normally handles an approved brand of flue pipe.
Installation on a Combustible Floor If the appliance is to be installed on a combustible floor or a combustible floor covering, it must be installed on a 1” thick non-combustible millboard floor protector or a durable equivalent, with a “R” factor of at least “1.5” (English units) or equivalent. The pad must be installed beneath the unit, extending 16” (U.S.) on the side equipped with a door, and 8” on all other sides. The pad must cover any horizontal chimney connector runs and extend 2” beyond each side.
3. Side Heat Shields Side Heat Shield This accessory item comes with the hardware (six (6) mounting screws) necessary to install it on the rear of the stove. This is a two-piece heat shield, but is installed one piece at a time. There are prepunched holes on each side of the Rear Heat Shield; while holding each piece of the Side Heat Shield in place, align the pre-punched holes in the Side Heat Shield with the existing holes in the Rear Heat Shield, and fasten with the screws provided.
STANDARD (AC-16) BLOWER Install AC-16 Blower here, using the (4) supplied mounting screws ROOM AIR BLOWER: MODEL AC-16 120 VOLTS, 60Hz, 0.75 AMPS, 2900 RPM DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING UNIT. ALWAYS FOLLOW ALL CODES AND OWNER’S MANUALS! BLOWER MOTOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS: This unit is set up for installation of an optional 2-speed blower motor. The fan speed should be run on “Low” when the unit is operating at lower burn settings, and set to “High” for high burns.
FREESTANDING PLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION The first problem you may encounter is getting your stove into your home -- all of our stove products are well constructed, which makes them rather heavy. Three to four adults can normally handle a unit, but we still recommend using a handcart. Never attempt to handle a heating product alone!!! The door and brick can be temporarily removed to lighten the unit (refer to Brick Layout).
CHIMNEY REFER TO CHIMNEY AND CHIMNEY CONNECTOR MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: INSTALL VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE VENT MANUFACTURER CONTACT YOUR LOCAL BUILDING AUTHORITY FOR APPROVED METHODS OF INSTALLATION 1. This appliance requires a masonry or premanufactured chimney listed to UL103HT sized correctly. 2. If a masonry chimney is used, it is advisable to have your chimney inspected for cracks, and check the general condition before installing your unit.
OPERATION Do not use a grate or elevate the fire. Build the wood fire directly on the bricks. When the stove is used for the first time, solvents in the paint will smoke off as the stove “cures.” WOOD – This heater is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiency and lower emissions generally result when burning air-dried seasoned hardwood, as compared to softwood or to green or freshly-cut hardwood. Use only dry, seasoned wood.
GLASS CARE REPLACE GLASS ONLY WITH HIGH-TEMPERATURE ROBAX PYROCERAM OF THE PROPER SIZE AND THICKNESS. The following use and safety tips should be observed: 1. Inspect the glass regularly for cracks or breaks. If you detect a crack or a break, extinguish the fire immediately, and contact your dealer or Customer Service at (800) 245-6489 for replacement (or log on to www.englanderstoves.com ). 2. Do not slam the door or otherwise impact the glass.
The following steps should be followed for replacement of the door gasket: 1. Ensure the appliance is not in operation and is thoroughly cooled. 2. Remove the old door gasket and clean the gasket channel. 3. Using an approved high-temperature gasket cement, apply a thin coat in the bottom of the channel. 4. Starting at the hinge side of the door, work into the channel around the door unit, trim to length and butt the ends together. 5.
Placement of Stainless Steel Burner Tubes for all 30-NC, 50-SNC30 and 50-TNC30 stove models.
CREOSOTE When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors. These combine with moisture to form creosote. Creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow-burning fire – as a result, creosote residue accumulates on the lining of the flue. If ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. The chimney should be inspected on a regular basis during the heating season, to determine if a creosote build-up has accumulated.
IMPORTANT: HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS WORTH REVIEWING 1. What is the correct way to start a fire? You will need small pieces of dry wood (kindling) and paper. Use only newspaper or paper that has not been coated or that has had materials glued or applied to it. Never use coated or colored paper (such as advertising flyers). Open the door of the wood stove. Crumple several pieces of paper, and place them in the center of the firebox, directly on the firebricks of the stove.
6. Why is there always a large quantity of thick black smoke in the firebox? A large quantity of thick black smoke in the firebox is a possible indication that you have poor draft. 7. Is it normal for soot to cover the glass at the beginning of a fire? This stove has been built with an air wash system that will help keep the glass clear when the firebox has reached a good operating temperature, and also has a good draft. Cold firebox temperature and poor draft cause soot to form on the glass.
