INTRODUCTION Thank You for your purchase of a U.S. Stove Wood/Coal Burning Gravity Style (Up-Flow) Furnace. Your decision to buy our Clayton Furnace was undoubtedly reached af- ter much careful thought and consideration. We are very proud you chose this furnace and trust you will receive the comfort and economy that others realize when heat- ing with a U.S.
CHIMNEY REQUIREMENTS A fireclay lined masonry or Class A 103HT All-Fuel Metal Insulated Chimney must be used in all airtight wood fur- nace installations. The minimum recommended flue size for the model 1602 is 6 inches, inside diameter and for the 1802, the recommended flue size is 8 inches, inside diam- eter.
Though United States Stove Company expressly Does Not recommend the use of its furnaces to be installed and/or used as a free-standing heater, it is possible to achieve a reasonably safe and functional installation IF certain stan- dard procedures are followed.
INSTALLATION #2 Extending the hot air duct from the furnace into the existing plenum will help direct the flow of air from the furnace as well as the flow in the existing furnace. Ducting entering the existing plenum at an angle (approximately 45 degrees) will facilitate air flow from the furnace while diverting air from the existing furnace.
FURNACE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Unpack your Furnace and insure that there is no shipping damage. If damage exist, please contact your dealer im- mediately. Your Clayton Furnace will require some assembly before operation. All needed hardware and components for the following assemblies are included within the parts boxes inside the furnace and in the ash pan.
SPRING HANDLES Attach the four(4) spring handles to the Feed/Ash Doors, Baffle Rod, and Shaker Rod by twisting the springs counter- clockwise while applying pressure until you have screwed them approximately 3/4”-1” onto the rods. (4) Spring Handles DISTRIBUTION BLOWER & ACC. Remove all contents and insure that all components are present for assembly.
Using two 1/4-20 x 1” bolts and nuts, attach the draft blow- er adapter to the draft tube on the front of the furnace. Then mount and secure the draft blower to the adapter with the three 10-24 Kep nuts. Plug the blower into the out- let on the front of the furnace.
TESTING AND OPERATING PROCEDURES GENERAL FURNACE OPERATION After installation of the furnace is complete, it is ready for operation. The Honeywell Limit Control, in conjunction with a wall thermostat, operates the distribution blowers and the draft blower on the front of the furnace. The limit control can be adjusted to your desired blower On/Off times.
If the fire goes out or does not hold overnight, look for: 1. Poor draft. 2. Incorrect damper settings. 3. Improper firing methods for coal being used. 4. More combustion air needed. 5. Coal not sized to the furnace. We recommend 1” to 3”...
TROUBLE SHOOTING AND PROBLEM SOLVING 1. Problem: Smoke puffs from furnace Solution: A. Check chimney draft. Check for blocked chimney or flue pipe. Use mirror to check chimney clearance. B. Check ash pit — if it is too full, empty. C.

Barometric draft regulators are generally available where you purchased your stove or may be ordered directly from United States Stove Company at a nominal charge. USSC This Furnace will accept the installation of a Domestic Hot Water Coil Kit. The U.S. Stove kit is a 1124 Water Coil and it may be purchased from your local dealer.
Furnaces that are capable of burning coal usually will burn both Bituminous and Anthracite coal. An- thracite is perhaps the best coal fuel because of its long even burn time, high heat output, and cleanli- ness which make it a good choice for the home. However, keep in mind it is a much more difficult fuel to use, requires more care and patience, is not so widely available, and is usually much more ex-...

When the fire is well established and the room is be- coming warm, partially close the dampers. Some experimenting will have to take place with each particular setting of all dampers and controls as the chimney provides the draft necessary to not only exhaust the smoke, but to pull combustion air into the heater as well - and no two chimney’s perform the same.
