SAFETY LISTING The Quadra-Fire 3100 is listed by OMNI-Test Laboratories, Inc. , Beaverton, Oregon, to UL 1482-83, (UM)84 HUD and ULC S627. It is also approved for mobile home installations with outside combustion air in the U.S. (see pages 15 and 16 for further details). For residential installations in Canada without an outside combustion air kit,[...]

CHIMNEY CONNECTOR The chimney connector must be 6” (152mm) diameter with a minimum thickness of 24 gauge. Do not use aluminum or galvanized steel. They cannot properly withstand the extreme temperatures of a wood fire. Do not use chimney connector pipe as a chimney. You must connect your stove to a chimney comparable to those illustrated in this [...]

A chimney inside the house must have at least 2” (50mm) of clearance to the combustible structure. A chimney outside the house must have at least 1” (25mm) clearance to the combustible structure. Firestops must be installed in the spaces where the chimney passes through floors and/or ceiling (Figure 5). The chimney must have a fire clay flue li[...]

A chimney must be the required height above the roof or other obstruction for safety and proper draft operation. The chimney must be a minimum of 3’ (914mm) higher than the highest point where it passes through the roof, and at least 2’ (610mm) higher than the highest part of the roof or structure that is within 10’ (3048mm) of the chimney, m[...]

2. THIMBLE : An approved thimble must be used when the connection from the stove is made through a combustible wall to a masonry chimney. There are several methods you can use for connection through a combustible wall, two of which are illustrated in this manual. For additional methods, consult local building authorities or use the standards set fo[...]

Minimum 3 ½” (89mm) [4” (102mm) nominal] thick solid bricks are to be used. The fire clay liner (ASTM C35 or equivalent), 5/8” (16mm) wall thickness, must not penetrate into the chimney beyond the inner surface of the chimney flue liner and must be firmly cemented in place. If it is necessary to cut a hole in the chimney liner, use extreme c[...]

First, build the frame for the thimble, making sure that it is no smaller than 14½” (368mm) diameter, which will maintain a 2” (50mm) air space around the chimney section. Attach the wall spacer to the chimney side of the frame. Then insert the frame into the opening, toe-nailing it to the wall studs. Install the wall band in the framing to se[...]

CONNECTION TO A METAL PREFABRICATED CHIMNEY When a metal prefabricated chimney is used, the manufacturer’s installation instructions must be followed precisely. You must also purchase (from the same manufacturer) and install the ceiling support package or wall pass-through and “T” section package, firestops (where needed), insulation shield, [...]

MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION You must use a Quadra-Fire 3100 outside air kit (see page 16 for part numbers) for installation in a mobile home. Use of alternative material will void warranty. 1.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ BEFORE USING STOVE BURNING PROCESS In recent years there has been an increasing concern about air quality. Much of the blame for poor air quality has been placed on the burning of wood for home heating. In order to improve the situation, we at Quadra-Fire have developed cleaner-burning wood stoves that[...]

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (cont.) BLOWER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (see blower installation instructions on page 27) If your Quadra-Fire wood stove is equipped with an optional blower, you should follow these guidelines: 1.

Leave the secondary control (under the ashcatcher) open (pushed in). LOW: After a wood load has been b[...]

MAINTENANCE CREOSOTE 1. Formation and need for removal : When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a newly-started or a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining.[...]

1. Remove door from stove and lay on a padded flat surface. 2. Remove glass tabs and screws with a Phillips screwdriver (turn screws counterclockwise). 3.

P[...]

BAFFLE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION NOTE : The baffle in the 3100 stove is heavy (29 pounds). Moving the baffle around inside the stove takes strength and patience. Removing hardware exposed to combustion processes can be frustrating. If your reason for removing the baffle is simply to clean the chimney, you have alternatives which will save time and e[...]
