R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert User Guide 2 Operating Instructions WARNING HOT SURFACES! Glass and other surfaces are hot during operation AND cool down. Hot glass will cause burns. • Do not touch glass until it is cooled • NEVER allow children to touch glass • Keep children away • CAREFULLY SUPERVISE children in same room as appliance. • Alert children and adults to hazards of high temperatures. High temperatures may ignite clothing or other flammable materials.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert B. Fire Safety To provide reasonable fire safety, the following should be given serious consideration: 1. Install at least one smoke detector on each floor of your home to ensure your safety. They should be located away from the heating appliance and close to the sleeping areas. Follow the smoke detector manufacturer’s placement and installation instructions, and be sure to maintain regularly. 2. A conveniently located Class A fire extinguisher. 3.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert 2. Second Stage F. Burning Process In recent years there has been an increasing concern about air quality. Much of the blame for poor air quality has been placed on the burning of wood for home heating. In order to improve the situation, we at Quadra-Fire have developed cleaner-burning wood appliances that surpass the requirements for emissions established by our governing agencies.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert G. Automatic Combustion Control (ACC) Typically, when you build a fire, you open the air controls fully and monitor the fire to prevent it from going into an overfire situation and/or burning your wood up too quickly before you shut down the air controls to the desired burn rate. Burn Rate Air Control HIGH When using the Automatic Combustion Control (ACC) system, you do not have to continually monitor the fire. Once you set the ACC system it will control the fire for you.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert 3. Burn Rate Air Control • The air supply enters at the upper front of the firebox, near the top of the glass door. • This preheated air supplies the necessary fresh oxygen to mix with the unburned gases, helping to create the second, third and fourth combustion process. • This air is regulated by the Burn Rate Air Control. • There are four settings High, Medium-High, Medium-Low and Low.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert J. Correct Baffle & Blanket Placement INCORRECT POSITIONS WARNING Fire Risk Firebox damage due to improper baffle placement is not covered by warranty. Operate the wood burning appliance with the baffle in the correct position only. Not doing so could result in: • Reduced efficiency • Overheating the chimney • Overheating the rear of the firebox Ceramic Blanket and Baffle Board are NOT in contact with the back of the firebox.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert K. Building A Fire WARNING Fire Risk. Keep combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids clear of appliance. • Do NOT store flammable materials in the appliance’s vicinity. • Open door slowly so that ash or smoke does not exit appliance through opening. • Large logs burn slowly, holding a fire longer. • Small logs burn fast and hot, giving quick heat. 9. As long as there are hot coals, repeating steps 6 through 8 will maintain a continuous fire.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert L. Wood Fuel Moisture The majority of the problems appliance owners experience are caused by trying to burn wet, unseasoned wood. WARNING Fire Risk. • Do NOT burn garbage or flammable fluids such as gasoline, naptha or engine oil. • Wet, unseasoned wood requires energy to evaporate the water instead of heating your home, and • Causes evaporating moisture which cools your chimney, accelerating formation of creosote. • DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START A FIRE.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert M. Blower Control Box & Snap Disc Operating Instructions 1. The blower will turn on/off automatically when set to AUTO. Figure 15.1. MANUAL: Over-rides the internal Snap Disc 2. When set to MANUAL, the fan will turn on/off only when you turn it on or off. This setting over-rides the internal snap disc. 3. Adjust the speed of the fan by turning the HIGH/LOW knob to the desired setting. AUTO: Fan will turn ON/OFF automatically and is controlled by the internal Snap Disc N.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert Q. Opacity (Smoke) O. Clear Space • Do NOT place combustible objects within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the front of fireplace. Figure 16.1. Fire Risk. • Opacity is measured in percent: • 100% opacity is when an object is totally obscured by the smoke column from a chimney, and WARNING • Opacity is the measure of how cleanly your appliance is burning. Do NOT place combustible objects within 48 inches in front of the appliance.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert 3 Maintenance and Service A. Disposal of Ashes • Frequency: When ash is within 1-3/4 inch (44mm) of firebox lip. Leave 1/4 to 1/2 inch (6-13mm) of ash in the bottom of the firebox. • By: Homeowner WARNING! Risk of Fire! Ashes could contain hot embers. • Place ashes in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. • The closed container should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert E. Glass Cleaning F. Inspect Firebrick (Cont’d) • Frequency: As desired • By: Homeowner 4. Install side bricks. Slide top of brick under clips on side of firebox and push the bottom of the brick until it is flush with the side of the unit. • Clean glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Abrasive cleaners may scratch and cause glass to crack. • If the deposits on the glass are not very heavy, normal glass cleaners work well.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert G. Quick Reference Maintenance Overview Guide for Wood Appliances. BAFFLE & BLANKET PLACEMENT INSPECT FIREBRICKS & ASH COVER (AFTER EACH CLEANING) 2 2 Step Top Models Only Baffle and blanket placement is critical to heat output, efficiency and overall life of the unit. Make sure the baffle is pushed all of the way to the back of the firebox and the blanket is laying flat. Firebrick is designed to protect your firebox. Replace firebricks that are crumbling, cracked or broken.

R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert Installer’s Guide 6 Getting Started B. Draft A. Design and Installation Considerations Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent appliances successfully. When a appliance is drafting successfully, all combustion byproducts are exiting the home through the chimney. CAUTION Check building codes prior to installation. • Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and national codes and regulations.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert C. Negative Pressure WARNING Asphyxiation Risk. • Negative pressure can cause spillage of combustion fumes, soot and carbon monoxide. • Appliance needs to draft properly for safety. Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air available for the appliance to operate properly. It can be strongest in lower levels of the house. Causes include: • Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert D. Locating Your Stove & Chimney • Location of the appliance and chimney will affect performance. As shown in Figure 27.1 the chimney should: Consider the appliance location in order to avoid floor and ceiling attic joists and rafters. • Locate termination cap away from trees, adjacent structures, uneven roof lines and other obstructions. • Install through the warm space enclosed by the building envelope.
R 2700-I ACC Wood Insert F. 2-10-3 Rule These are safety requirements and are not meant to assure proper flue draft. This appliance is made with a 6 inch (152mm) diameter chimney connector as the flue collar on the unit. • Changing the diameter of the chimney can affect draft and cause poor performance. • It is not recommended to use offsets and elbows at altitudes above 4000 feet above sea level and or when there are other factors that affect flue draft. Less than 10 ft. ( 05cm) 2 ft. (61cm) 2 ft.

Calculating Alternate Floor Protection Material Thermal Conductivity: k value The k value indicates the amount of heat (in BTU’s) that will flow in 1 hour through 1 square foot of a uniform material 1 inch thick for each degree (F) of temperature difference from one side of the material to the other. The LOWER the k factor means less heat is being conducted through the non-combustible material to the combustible material beneath it.
