THE INGLENOOK FIREPLACE INTRODUCTION The Inglenook hi-tech fireplace is an energy efficient, non-catalytic, heat circulating, closed combustion system. As an Inglenook Fireplace owner, you can expect a lifetime of warmth from this Country Flame product provided it is installed, maintained and operated properly.

INGLENOOK FIREPLACE OPERATION FUEL The Inglenook should be fueled with seasoned cordwood. Hardwoods will provide more energy per pound of wood consumed because of its superior density when compared to softwood. If hardwoods are utilized to fuel your Inglenook, the results will be a longer burning fire that requires less frequent refueling. It is recommended that whether hardwood or softwood is used, the moisture content should not exceed 20%. Higher moisture content wood will be di

COMBUSTION CONTROL The Inglenook is not designed to operate with a flue damper. As is standard practice with hi-tech high efficiency fireplaces, the Inglenook combustion air damper controls all air entering the firebox. This combustion air damper allows the owner more precise control of the fire by accurately controlling the air available for combustion. The combustion air damper control is located on the right side of the Inglenook just below the bottom edge of the top grill as shown

FIGURE 2: HIGH BURN COMBUSTION AIR DAMPER SETTING CAUTION must be used when operating the Inglenook Fireplace with the combustion air damper control wide open. Only seasoned hardwood should be burnt in this manner. Burning softwoods, small dry pieces of construction scraps, trash or paper with the combustion air damper control wide open will cause a very intense fire to be created. This intense high temperature fire could permanently damage

change in the flame pattern. The flames will be slow and intermittent and may appear dirty if the wood is too wet i.e., a moisture content of 20% and more. During the Low Combustion Burn Mode, creosote may accumulate on the glass doors. Low combustion burning should only be used after the firebox has been allowed to reach a hot operating temperature i.e., the air combustion damper has been fully open to produce a hot fire for about an hour. Low combustion can be used at night in order

2. Negative Pressure As the Inglenook fire burns, the exhaust gases are drafted up and out of the chimney system. The Inglenook Fireplace system is “pulling” fresh air from somewhere to keep the fire burning properly. The Inglenook’s exhausted draft air has to be replaced via a properly operating outside air duct system connected to the fireplace. If not connected properly, the fireplace will draw air to the firebox from inside the house or the fire will be starved due to a lack of ava

FIGURE 5: CHIMNEY INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS 7. Poor Chimney Draft Perform the following simple test of your chimney draft. With no fire in the Inglenook firebox hold a recently lit match (smoke should be trailing from the match) inside the firebox towards the upper one third of the top of the firebox. If the draft is proper, you should see the match smoke being exhausted up through the baffle. Chimneys installed against an outside wall without protection may gen

MAINTAINING YOUR INGLENOOK FIREPLACE CREOSOTE When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture to form a black deposit called creosote. Creosote will accumulate on the flue lining and if left to build up, can create a potential fire hazard within the chimney system. When ignited, creosote makes an extremely hot fire. If the creosote deposit within a chimney system were large then a resultant chimney fire would burn extremely h

4. Always use a dry chemical fire extinguisher, baking soda or sand to control the fire. Do not use water as it may cause a dangerous steam explosion. 5. Inspect outside the house to ensure that sparks and hot embers coming out of the chimney are not igniting the roof or any adjacent building or property. 6. If a chimney fire ever occurs, DO NOT USE THE INGLENOOK FIREPLACE until both a qualified chimney sweep and a local Fire Department Inspector reviews the system and provides writ
