Stove Safety

Important safety aspects of AMI stove that you need to be aware of when operating. We

recommend that you have your AMI stove installed by a professional installer of solid fuel

burning appliances.

1. If this room heater is not properly installed, a house fire may result. To reduce the risk of

fire, follow the installation instructions. Failure to follow these instructions may result in

property damage, bodily injury, or even death!

2. Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the room where the stove is operating.

Operating an exhaust fan or a clothes dryer could create a low pressure area, causing

poisonous gases to come out of the stove into the room.

3. Only use drying solid wood fuel to loading and re-loading ; Do not burn treated wood ,

unseasoned wood, colored paper, cardboard, solvents, trash and garbage;

4. DO NOT USE CHEMICALS TO START THE FIRE. Never use gasoline, kerosene, charcoal,

lighter fluid, engine oil, or similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a fire . Keep all such liquids

well away from the stove while it is in use.

5. The burning of wood gives off gases which can be extremely dangerous. It is important

that your flue system is properly installed and that you check all joints regularly to ensure

that there are no cracks or gaps. Check the door sealing rope and replace when damaged.

We recommend a smoke detectors and carbon monoxide monitors be fitted in rooms where

stoves are installed. Do not use stove in a room where negative pressure conditions may

occur , such as through the use of extraction fans.

6. Creosote and soot may accumulate in your flue pipe and chimney. This may ignite,

causing a chimney fire. If you suspect a chimney fire, evacuate people from the building,

close down the air controls on the stove and call the Fire Department. To prevent

accumulation of soot or creosote, check flue and chimney regularly and clean as necessary.

Good burning, hot stoves will generally cause a lot less build-up than slow burning stoves.

Likewise, dry wood will cause less build-up than wet wood. We recommend a fire

extinguisher be available where stoves are in operation. In the event of a chimney fire, do

not re-light the stove until it and the flue chimney system have been thoroughly checked by

fire officials and repaired as necessary.

7. Stoves get extremely hot and should not be touched when lit. When young children are in

the area, we recommend the use of a suitable fire guard around the stove. Always wear

protective gloves when reloading the stove.

8. Never over-fire your stove. If external parts of your stove are glowing red, then the stove

is over-firing and your draft settings should be reduced. Never use a fan to supply air to the

stove or to extract air from it.

9. All users of the stove should be aware of the contents of this manual. Please leave the

manual where it is accessible to stove users and do not allow anyone to use the stove that is

unfamiliar with its correct operation.

10. Never use the stove if any parts are missing or damaged. Only use genuine parts as

replacements. Never modify your stove.

Check Building Codes

•When installing, operating and maintaining your stove, follow the guidelines presented in

these instructions, and make them available to anyone using or servicing the stove.

•Your city, town, county or province may require a building permit to install a solid fuel

burning appliance.

• In the U.S., the National Fire Protection Association's Code, NFPA 211, Standards for

Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances, or similar regulations, may

apply to the installation of a solid fuel burning appliance in your area.

• Always consult your local building inspector or authority having jurisdiction to determine

what regulations apply in your area.

Before installing your stove

You need to consider the following to ensure the safe operation of your stove:

• Provision of adequate air to support efficient combustion of the fuel

• A well-sealed flue/chimney system, herein after referred to as the "flue system"

• The protection of combustible materials in proximity to the stove

Adequate air provision

It is essential for the safe and efficient use of your stove that you provide an adequate air

supply when lighting a fire. Crack the door open a little and allow air to enter. Once the air

in the stove and the flue stabilize, you can then close the door of the stove. Failure to do so

will mean that fuel is burned inefficiently, causing smoke and blackening the glass and may

also cause smoke to come back into the room.

Stove Dimensions

Figure 1: Dimensions

Residential Installation

Unpacking and preparing your stove for installation:

1. Open the door and unfasten the wire on the fire fence. It is used to ensure that the glass

does not break during transportation.

* Spare glass clips --- 4 pcs

* Spare screws (M5 x 8mm) --- 2 pcs

* Wooden handle ---

* Wooden handle holder ---

* Operating tool ---

* Securing bracket - 2 pcs

* Bracket screws ( M10 x 100 mm) --- 2 pcs

3. Fix the flue collar on the outlet which you selected by using the M6 x 20mm flat cross

head screw. Ensure all seals are secure to prevent air leakage. If you choose the rear flue

outlet, remove the flue cover before fixing the flue collar.

4. Fix the wooden handle on the stainless steel door handle with the M8 x 90mm bolt.

5. Keep the rest of the screws and Allen wrench for future use.

In the unlikely event that something is missing, please contact your dealer immediately.

This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It

is against federal regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a

manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual.

The floor protection

If the stove is to be installed on a combustible floor, it must be placed on a non-combustible

(a minimum K value of 23.7 btu/ft h °F /the equivalent of 20 Gauge steel) hearth pad. Floor

protection under the stove must be a UL 1618 Type 1 Ember Protector composed of non-

combustible material for protection from radiant heat, sparks and embers.

Individual sections of floor protection must be mortared together to prevent sparks from

falling through to combustible materials. Any carpeting must be removed from under the

floor protection.

This protection must extend as follows:

In Canada: 18" (457 mm) from the loading door on the ring side and 8" (203 mm) from the

sides as below.

In USA: 16" (406 mm) to the front of the fire-box and 8" (203 mm) from the side; This

protection is also required under the chimney connector and 2" (51 mm) beyond each side.

Installation Clearances

It is extremely important that you respect required installation distances and that you

respect local installation regulations. This is for your safety. The manufacturer is not

responsible for the product if it is not installed following these recommendations. These

clearances may only be reduced by means approved by the regulatory authority.

One necessary precaution when installing AMI stove is to leave sufficient space between the

room heater (top, sides, back, front, and under stove pipes) and any other material that can

catch fire. The clearance from the top of the unit to the ceiling is 75" (190.5 cm). All other

clearances are found in the table below.

A combustible surface is anything that can burn (i.e. sheet rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics,

etc.) These surfaces are not limited to those that are visible and also include materials that

are behind non-combustible materials. If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a

material, consult your local fire officials.

CHIMNEY SYSTEM AND CONNECTOR MUST BE 6"(150mm) DIAMETER AND LISTED TO:

CANADA ：CONNECTOR LISTED to ULC S-641 and CHIMNEY LISTED to ULC-S-629

USA ：CONNECTOR AND CHIMNEY LISTED to UL-103 HT

1. Residential Clearances to Combustible surfaces and materials;

This stove may be installed using a single-wall connector (smoke pipe) as per local and

National fire and Installation codes. Clearances may be reduced with various heat shielding

or insulating materials. Consult national fire codes and authorities for approval ( U.S. -NFPA

211 or CAN. - CSA B365) ,For closer clearances, use a listed double-wall connector.

2. Mobile Home installation must use listed double-wall connector.

Minimum Clearance to Combustibles

Single Wall Connector - Residential

Double Wall Connector - Residential

Alcove: Min. Height 4' / 1.125m Max. Depth 3' / 915mm

Figure 4 : clearances

Well Sealed Flue System

Only materials and items approved for solid fuel stoves should be used for your stove.

Under no circumstances should you use aluminum or galvanized steel pipes for your stove

flue.

Always fit pipes with the narrow side down. This will allow any creosote to run down the

inside of the pipe and not to come out and cause an unsightly mess and possible fire hazard.

All joints in the flue system should be sealed with fire cement and/or an appropriate fire

resistant rope or gasket.

Pipe bends should be kept to a minimum and we do not recommend using more than 2

bends on any installation. Flues must not pass through ceilings, floors, attics, roofs, or

combustible walls without adequate and approved insulation being provided to protect

combustible materials.

The chimney and flue provide a means of taking combusted fuel from the stove, as well as a

draft to enable the stove to work. It is essential that the flue system is kept in good

condition and there are no breaks or cracks allowing contact with any other combustible

materials of the house. It is also essential that the flue system is kept clean and seals are

maintained to ensure the draft is not lost.

The open end of the flue system must be above the height of the apex of the building and

any other obstructions, such as trees, which are within 10 feet (3m) of the flue system.

Failure to do this will affect the efficiency of the stove and may cause down drafts, which

will mean dangerous products of combustion are emitted into room.

Chimney Connector

Double-Wall Connector

• Use a listed double-wall connector.

• Install all components to the chimney connector manufacturer's installation requirements.

Single-Wall Connector

The chimney connector MUST be 6" in diameter, with a minimum thickness of 24 gauge

black steel or 26 gauge blue steel.
