7 SAFETY LISTING The WS-150 AND WS-250 are approved for mobile home installations with outside combustion air in the U.S. (See page 14 for further details). For residential installations in Canada without an outside combus- tion air kit, a source of fresh air into the room must be provided.

Firestops must be installed in the spaces where the chimney passes through floors and/or ceiling (Figure 8).

19 OPERA TING INSTRUCTIONS IMPORT ANT - PLEASE READ BEFORE USING STOVE BURNING PROCESS In recent years there has been an increasing con- cern about the quality of our air . Much of the blame for poor air quality has been placed on the burning of wood for home heating.
20 WOOD SELECTION AND STORAGE Burn only dry seasoned wood! Dry and well-sea- soned wood will not only minimize the chance of creo- sote formation, but will give you the most efficient heat output.
21 BURNING GUIDELINES OP ACITY : This is the measure of how cleanly your stove is burning. Opacity is measured in percent; 100% opacity is when an object is totally obscured by the smoke column from a chimney , and 0% opac- ity means that no smoke column can be seen.
22 MAINTENANCE CREOSOTE Formation and need for removal : When wood is burned slowly , it produces tar and other organic vapors which combine with expelled mois- ture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a newly-started or a slow-burning fire.
23 GLASS REPLACEMENT 1. Remove door from stove and lay on a padded flat surface. 2 . Remove glass tabs (See figure 25) and screws with a Phillips screwdriver (turn screws counter- clockwise). 3. Lift glass frame pieces and glass out of the door frame.
24 FIGURE 27 NOTE : The baf fle in this stove is heavy . Moving the baffle around inside the stove takes strength and patience. Removing hardware exposed to combustion processes can be frustrating. If your reason for removing the baffle is simply to clean the chimney , you have alternatives which will save time and effort.
