Loading Wood into the HEATMOR™
Please read through the entire HEATMOR™ Operation and Maintenance Manual and talk to your local dealer
for instruction.
Ask for a demonstration from your local dealer
.
it is very important to fully educate all
those who will be loading the furnace with wood.
Loading a large amount of wood into the HEATMOR™ furnace once a day
is not always best
. We have found
that you have a more efficient fire and produce less smoke when you add fuel twice a day.
example:
Half of
the days’ demand in the morning and half in the evening. The number of loadings and the amount of wood
needed will vary depending on the amount of heat being removed.
Here are some suggested points to assist you in loading your furnace.
1) Make sure you have your fuel readily available to fill your furnace. (ie. a wheelbarrow full of wood
near
the furnace)
2) Maintain a clear, clean area in front of the furnace.
3) Open the outer front door. This allows you access to the inner firebox door as well as opens the anti-
rollout device. This allows air into the firebox to decrease the possibility of the exhaust igniting
and creating a “flash back” before you open the main firebox door.
4) Turn on the light switch. The light should turn on and the combustion air blowers should turn off if
they were operating correctly.
5) Wait a few seconds for the fire to die down or for the exhaust to clear.
6) Standing to the right, next to the exterior door,
with your left hand and your left arm outstretched,
lift the fire box door handle out of the safety latch.
7) Crack the firebox door open about two inches and allow any pressure left over in the firebox to
escape.
8) Open the firebox door as you step backwards towards the exterior door. This allows you to be out of
the way if there is a “flash back” or exhaust exiting the door opening.
9) Set the firebox door handle into the holder provided on the outer door.
10) After all exhaust has been eliminated, give the ashes over the grates a light stirring with a long rake.
11) Add the necessary fuel to the firebox, loading the wood parallel to front and back, being careful not
to push ashes into the air boxes. and do not let wood sit on top of the airbox.
12) Close the firebox door and latch securely.
13) Turn off the light switch. This will return power to the blowers and turn off the light.
14) Close and lock the exterior door.
nOte:
The 200 SSRII firebox is not square, some 24” wood maybe loaded in the outer sides of the firebox,
but 15” wood can be easily loaded in the middle of the firebox; remember to load the wood parallel to front to
back.
