22. 11 32198A February 15 2002 TROUBLE SHOOTING 2 Heat generated from the fire Most of the heat produced from the fire is transferred into the heat exchanger of the insert then into the room However part of this heat escapes up the chimney taking smoke and other combustion gases with it The Cape Cod extracts heat so efficiently that the amount escaping through the flue is minimal Refer also to Operating Tips Opacity on page 28 This is one reason for the importance in burning dry seasoned wood The heat generated from the fire should be warming your home and establishing the flue draft not evaporating the moisture out of wet unseasoned wood resulting in wasted heat 3 Diameter and height of flue system A specific volume of air determined by the diameter and height of the chimney connector and chimney is contained within the flue system As heat from the fire enters the flue it warms this air causing it to rise The air moving up the flue draws smoke and more heated air from the fire with it thus establishing draft The amount of draft depends on the temperature of the heated air and the volume of air that is contained in the flue system Page 37 QUADRA FIRE Page 38 PARTS PART NO 20637B 32084 834 3850 844 9640 844 9650 844 9680 844 9690 844 9620 844 9630 844 9660 844 9670 434 0470 434 0480 834 3870 832 0550 23434A 834 3930 834 3350 832 3390 Cape Cod Wood Stove PLEA
