R 2700-I WOOD INSERT (ACT) OPERATION WOOD SELECTION AND STORAGE 2. Place several wads of crushed paper on the firebox floor. Burn only dry seasoned wood. Dry, well-seasoned wood will not only minimize the chance of creosote formation but will give you the most efficient heat output. Even dry wood contains at least 15% moisture by weight and should be burned hot enough to keep the chimney hot enough to maintain particulate (smoke) burning.
2700-I WOOD INSERT (ACT) R OPERATING TIPS For maximum operating efficiency with the lowest emissions, follow these operating procedures: 1. Regardless of desired heat output, when loading insert, burn your Quadra-Fire with both air controls wide open for a minimum of 5 to 15 minutes. 2. Regulate burn rate (heat output) by using the Primary Control (center control under ashlip). The Start-Up Air Control (right control) is mainly for initial start-up and reloading. 3.
