Start-up Air Control
To activate: Push back until it stops
Air quality is important to all of us, and if we choose to use
wood to heat our homes we should do so responsibly. To do
this we need to learn to burn our appliances in the cleanest
way possible. Doing this will allow us to continue using our
wood appliances for many years to come.
G. Start-Up Air Control
When using the start-up air control system, you do not
have to continually monitor the re. Once you set the start-
up air control system it will control the re for you. Follow
the instructions below to learn how to operate your stove
with ease.
H. Burn Rates and Operating E󰀩ciency
For maximum operating e󰀩ciency
• Burn dry, well-seasoned wood.
• Follow these burn rate instructions below.
Burn Rate
1. Starting a Fire:
- Load appliance with wood and start re (reference
Quick Start Guide on page 6).
- Activate start-up air control.
2. Reloading:
- Add wood as needed.
- Activate start-up air control.
NOTE: If using the blower should be o󰀨 for the rst 30
minutes and then be operated in the desired setting at
30 minutes.
This wood appliance has a manufacturer-
set minimum low burn rate that must not be
altered. It is against federal regulations to
alter this setting or otherwise operate this
pellet insert in a manner inconsistent with
operating instructions in this manual.
WARNING
3. Adjusting the Burn Rate:
The Montpelier II Insert is designed to optimize e󰀩ciency
at all times. Since there are no user controls to adjust
the burn rate, the easiest method is to learn how many
logs you need at a time for the amount of heat desired.
In addition to the amount of wood and the size of the
logs, take the time to experiment with split and unsplit
logs as split logs will burn faster than unsplit logs.
I. Wood Fuel
Hardwood vs Softwood
Your appliance performance depends on the quality of the
rewood you use.
• Seasoned wood contains about 8,000 BTUs per pound.
• Hard woods are more dense than soft woods.
• Hard woods contain 60% more BTUs than soft woods.
• Hard woods require more time to season, burn slower
and are harder to ignite.
• Soft woods require less time to dry, burn faster and are
easier to ignite.
• Start the re with softwood to bring the appliance up to
operating temperature and to establish draft.
• Add hardwood for slow, even heat and longer burn time.
Fire Risk.
• DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR
FLAMMABLE FLUIDS SUCH AS
GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL.
• Do NOT burn treated wood or wood with
salt (driftwood).
• May generate carbon monoxide if burn
material other than wood.
May result in illness or possible death.
