RE NOT TO SCALE 13 14 Maximizinc Your Stove s Overatt EFFICIENCY It is important to know that for high combustion efficient clean burns you will need to have sufficient temperatures inside the firebox for thorough combustion The best method for determining if you have sufficient temperatures is to watch the brick lining in your firebox When you first light your stove the bricks will turn a dark brown or black After 20 to 30 minutes of a hot fire most of the bricks should return to near their original light brown or yellow color This means the bricks have reached a high enough temperature for your stove to achieve high combustion efficiency Second and just as important is achieving a high level of heat transfer efficiency Slowing the rate of flow through the stove or insert enhances heat transfer thus allowing more time for heat to be transferred into your home To do this be sure to thoroughly preheat your stove and then reduce the amount of primary air by closing the draft con trol lower left to about 1 2 to 3 4 open This will decrease the excess oxygen in your flue which carries heat up your chimney but should still be enough air to allow the stove to produce its maximum heat output More air may produce a lightly greater amount of heat but will greatly increase wood consumption When the area being heated reaches a comfortable temperature slow the burn rate by closing the control to further improve heat trans
