experience a problem, this troubleshooting guide will assist you or a qualified service person in the diagnosis of a problem

and the corrective action to be taken.

Can not get fire started 

Excessive smoke or spillage 

Burns too slowly 

Not enough heat output

Not enough kindling/paper or no

kindling/paper

Use dry kindling, more paper. Arrange kindling &

wood for air movement.

Check for restricted termination cap
Check for blockage of outside air kit (if installed).
Check for flue blockage.
Pre-warm flue before starting fire (refer to Building

a Fire Section).
Check for adequate vent height (refer to Chimney

Height Section).
Open window below the appliance towards the

wind.

Wood condition is too wet, too 

large

Use dry, seasoned wood (refer to Seasoned Wood

Section).

Bed of coals not established 

before adding wood

Start with paper & kindling to establish bed of

coals (refer to Building a Fire Section).

Flue blockage such as birds’

nests or leaves in termination 

cap

Have chimney inspected for creosote and cleaned

by a certified chimney sweep.

Down draft or negative pressure 

Competition with exhaust

devices

Do not use exhaust fans during start-up (refer to 

Negative Pressure Section).

wind.

Fire burns too fast

Extremely dry or soft wood

Mix in hardwood.

Overdrafting

Check for correct vent height; too much vertical

height creates overdrafting.

Chimney Termination Requirement Section).
