WARNING: It is unsafe to load any type of coal within 2 inches of the top of the firebrick. Load fuel carefully or damage may result. NOTE: Do not burn coke, charcoal, highly volatile Bituminous coal, sub Bituminous, lignite or cannel coal (sometimes called channel coal or candle coal. Never burn chemically processed logs, such as fire logs, as their use is intended for fireplaces only. Please follow all guidelines in this manual concerning wood and coal burning applications due to safety concerns and to maintain warranty coverage.
BURN WOOD AND COAL ONLY!
Disposal of Ashes: Heat resistant gloves are recommended. In order to remove ashes from your IGNITECH Furnace, open the ash door and slide the ash pan to the rear of the furnace. Remove the ash pan from the furnace and dump the ashes into a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed metal container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. The ash pan must be removed from your IGNITECH Furnace during operation. This precautionary measure is recommended because if the ash pan is allowed to remain inside the furnace during operation, it will become dangerously hot to touch, block the flow of air under the grates and reduce the efficiency of the furnace. Remove the ashes from your IGNITECH Furnace at least once a day, or as often as necessary to ensure the ashes do not accumulate to the height of the grates. If ash build-up occurs at grate level, it will cause premature failure of the grate system, voiding the warranty on the grates. Unacceptably high temperatures will result because the ashes have restricted the flow of cooling air beneath the grates. This flow of air was designed to not only cool the grates, but to also provide warmed air for better combustion. If the ash level is improperly maintained the firebox will be starved of combustion air, greatly reducing the efficiency and heat output of your IGNITECH Furnace. CAUTION: HOT SURFACES. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. DO NOT TOUCH DURING OPERATION. IMPORTANT: FOR TECHNICAL SUPPORT OR CUSTOMER SERVICE ISSUES, DO NOT RETURN TO THE DEALER (THE DEALER DOES NOT HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS), CALL 1-800-875-4788. Draft Blower: The front draft blower plays an important role in the operation of your IGNITECH Furnace. When the wall thermostat calls for heat, the draft motor turns on and supplies fresh air into the firebox producing a hotter fire, which in turns provides more heat in the heat chamber. The heat is then sent through the duct system throughout your building . When the wall thermostat temperature is met, the draft blower shuts off until the thermostat calls for heat, beginning the cycle again. The draft blower has a slide cover located on the side of the motor that is factory preset, with an opening of approximately 3/8”. The cover should be fully closed only when there is a power failure and electricity is lost. With the cover closed, no air is introduced into the firebox, then the fire dies, preventing the furnace from possible overheating and damage. The manual combustion air spin damper control on the ash door should be set with a 1/8 inch gap to start. Adjust slowly by making 1 rotation at a time to find the correct air setting. Important: Blower Speed Changes: Your HD80 furnace is equipped with a 3 speed high efficiency bearing shaft motor (started with a capacitor) that draws a maximum of 5 amps when set at high speed. The 3 speed switch on your electrical control center allows you to manually adjust speeds to your desired setting. If you are unable to detect or hear the speed change when you move the switch selector to a different setting it doesn’t mean the blower motor didn’t change speeds. Most blower motors that are manufactured today are sleeve shaft motors that don’t have any bearings so the motor creates more variation in sound. Your motor has bearings so it runs very smoothly and quietly. The furnace needs to be connected to ductwork to have significant resistance (static pressure against the blower so it will operate at full power. If you are running the blower without a fire in the furnace, the speeds will be different than when you have a fire burning. Hot air
