Cleaning glass is best done in 3 ways:

  1. Allow the normal burn cycle to clear the glass; a low burn will create some soot build up in the corners and is considered normal.
  2. Using a damp paper towel dipped in ash from the stove is a mild cleaner.
  3. Using a commercial woodstove glass cleaner available at your local hearth retailer.

Do not use oven cleaner or abrasives as they will etch and permanently mark the glass.

During the first few fires, the door or clamps may put excessive pressure on the glass causing thermal breakage. After that period, the vast majority of breakage is caused by impact or pressure from closing the door on a piece of wood.

The stove cannot produce the temperatures required to damage the ceramic glass from temperature. 

Most common cause is a dirty chimney or ash and soot build up on top of the baffle. Your local dealer will be able to help find solutions for you.

Burning the stove continuously on a high setting, or a chimney that creates too much draft, causes an uncontrolled fire resulting in damage.

Your stove is designed and warranted to burn regular cord wood only. Burning of manufactured fuels, building materials, or garbage will damage your stove and void your warranty.

All wood stoves manufactured after 1989 have a controlled minimum combustion air, this is to prevent the serious pollution created by the old style “Airtight” units. Your stove is a UL/ULC CSA, EPA certified heating appliance.    

Over the last few years, the emissions numbers in North America have been based on either LHV (Lower Heating Value) or HHV (Higher Heating Value) testing standards – both are accurate forms of testing. The current US EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) 2020 emission standard is based on HHV testing data. To learn more about the EPA 2020 standard, click here.

Hearth pads must fulfill the requirements of local and national standards for heat and ember protection. We provide the basic guidelines in the manual and brochure, if you have further questions contact your local Pacific Energy retailer or inspector. Click here to find a dealer near you.

Likely it is the manifold from the bottom of the stove – it fits in just behind the bottom of the door frame with holes facing the back of the stove.

We use many different types of material and thickness varying between 3/8” plate steel to 12-gauge stainless steel.

Flue dampers can be considered in situation with excessive draft, please consult with your local Pacific Energy Dealer before making any modifications. Click here to find a dealer near you.

Outside air is recommended when possible as it helps with combustion air. In colder climates this is not always practical, but the stove will not perform well in a negative pressure environment. There are many solutions to help with negative pressure in the home, please consult with your local Pacific Energy Retailer for more information. Click here to find a dealer near you.

There is no required test to non-combustible materials and therefore we have no data to share.

Yes, all woodstoves and inserts must be safety tested without power.
