Phoenix Model 8612 Introduction Congratulations! You have just invested in a most unique wood burning stove – the Phoenix Wood Burning Stove from Hearthstone Quality Home Heating Products Inc®. The Phoenix Model 8612 is a clean burning EPA certified, non-catalytic wood- burning stove. With a 2.30 cubic foot firebox capacity, and only 2.4 grams per hour particulates emission, you can be proud to join the Hearthstone family with our Phoenix Cast & Stone Wood Burning Stove. The generous depth of the firebox, and large door, allows for loading wood up to 21 inches long! combustible surfaces.
You can safely reduce required clearances in most cases with a special connector pipe and special wall coverings as specified by this manual, the NFPA 211 codes, and your local authorities having jurisdiction. Keep furniture, drapes, curtains, wood, paper, and other combustibles far away from the stove. Never install the stove in a location where gasoline, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid or other flammable liquids are used, or stored. Locate the stove centrally in your living area if possible to allow the heat to travel naturally to distant rooms. We recommend that you do not locate your stove in an uninsulated basement.
The amount of radiant energy required to heat concrete basement walls is so great that most of the usable heat is absorbed by them, and lost to the home. Your purchase ensures you many years of clean, comfortable heat with minimal maintenance. You receive the benefits of the most advanced technology in wood burning without the cost and maintenance requirements of a catalytic stove. The Phoenix blends modern technology with the unique beauty and heating qualities of soapstone, long known for its even heat transmission, and long heat-retaining ability. We trust that you will appreciate the quality of our handcrafted product. SAFETY NOTICE:
