• FireplaceXtrordinair 44A-BI, REPLACEMENT PARTS AND REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS (Continued) Removing and Replacing the Firebricks The firebricks inside your wood-burning appliance are used to store the radiating heat and create a more thorough combustion inside the firebox. Occasionally one of them will crack and require replacement. Before any bricks are removed, make sure the appliance is cool and cleaned out.

• FireplaceXtrordinair 44A-BI, Page 13 OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE (Continued) Seasoning Wood (Continued) Place firewood in an open area to obtain rapid drying and to prevent deterioration. Preferably, put a cover on the top tier of wood. If you cut trees in summer, let them lie for a week. The leaves will draw moisture from the wood and dry it more quickly than if you limb the tree immediately. Seasoning can be accelerated greatly by simply stacking fuelwood in a sunny location and then covering it with clear plastic sheeting. In sunny weather, temperatures within the plastic covering will rise much higher than outside, warming the wood and evaporating the contained moisture. The water vapor produc

• FireplaceXtrordinair 44A-BI, Page 11 OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE (Continued) Wood This appliance is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower emissions generally result when you burn air dried, seasoned hardwoods as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods. DO NOT BURN treated wood, garbage, solvents, trash, coal, cardboard, colored paper, or wax impregnated logs (i.e. Duraflame, etc.). Burning treated wood, garbage, solvents, colored paper or driftwood from salt water may result in release of toxic fumes and may render the appliance ineffective and void the limited warranty.

• FireplaceXtrordinair 44A-BI, Page 9 OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE (Continued) Maintaining Catalytic Light-Off Your Fireplace Xtrordinair is equipped with a catalytic combustor which increases the efficiency of your appliance. It is located along the roof of the firebox and is accessed from within. Its purpose is to re-ignite the flue gases before they exit up the chimney. This process, called catalytic light-off, increases the heat output of your fireplace and reduces the amount of emissions. While starting a fire the catalytic combustor is by-passed to

Weigh a basket or bag of a few pieces of firewood. Place them back in the wood pile as an identified unit. Then weigh them again in about a month. If they have lost weight, the wood is still drying. Cracks that appear in the end of logs are good signs that the wood is well seasoned. Generally, wood that is 1) cut to length, 2) split, and 3) stacked in the open, preferably with a cover, during the winter, should be thor

• FireplaceXtrordinair 44A-BI, Page 12 OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE (Continued) Wood (Continued) Wet wood not only causes more work for you due to the increase in weight making it more burdensome to carry, but most importantly it will not burn as efficiently. You will receive less heat output from a wet piece of wood because it wastes energy evaporating the water, energy that should be used for heating your home. When a wet piece of wood is placed in your appliance it will also cause more creosote accumulation on the glass, in the appliance, flue and chimney. The primary reason for thi
