34 <br /> 8.3 FIRE EXTINGUISHERS / SMOKE DETECTORS & CARBON MONOXIDE <br /> DETECTORS <br /> EN All homes with a solid fuel burning appliance should have at least one fire extinguisher in a central location, <br /> known to all,at least one smoke detector and carbon monoxide(CO)detector in the room containing the <br /> appliance. If the smoke detector sounds an alarm, correct the cause but do not de-activate or relocate the <br /> smoke detector. If the carbon monoxide detector sounds an alarm, immediately vent the area,evacuate and <br /> call your local fire department. Hazards with some fuels(e.g.charcoal)and the possibilities of generating <br /> carbon monoxide and the hazards from carbon monoxide. <br /> 91.1B <br /> 8A FUEL LOADING AND BURN CYCLE <br /> BURN WOOD BEHIND THE LOG RETAINER DIRECTLY ON THE FIREBRICKS. <br /> DO NOT USE ELEVATED GRATE OR OTHERWISE RAISE THE FIRE. <br /> DO NOT STORE WOOD WITHIN APPLIANCE INSTALLATION CLEARANCES OR WITHIN THE SPACE <br /> REQUIRED FOR RE-FUELING AND ASH REMOVAL. <br /> The bricks will be nearly all white and the glass mostly clear.The whiteness of the bricks and the cleanness of the <br /> glass are good indicators of your operating efficiency. <br /> Not enough heat is produced when only one or two pieces of wood are burned. <br /> A minimum of three pieces are needed to encase a bed of coals that sustains the fire.Loosely stacked wood burns <br /> quicker than a tightly packed load. <br /> Wood burns in cycles rather than giving a steady output of heat. It is best to plan these cycles around your <br /> household routine so that only enough coals are left to start the next load. In the evening load your appliance at <br /> least a half-hour before bed to ensure the fire is hot enough to close the draft control for an overnight burn. <br /> Burn only dry seasoned wood.It produces more heat and less soot or creosote.Do not burn ocean beach wood.Its <br /> salt content can be corrosive to the metal. <br /> \ <br /> INSUFFICIENT FIREWOOD SUFFICIENT FIREWOOD <br /> 92.1 A <br /> Use Solid wood,processed solid fire logs(or other specified type)fuel only. <br /> WARNING;Do not build fire too close to door glass. Do not poke or stir the logs while they are burning. Use only <br /> firelogs that have been evaluated for the application in fireplace and refer to firelog warnings and caution markings on <br /> packaging prior to use. <br /> W415-1642/04.15.16 <br />
