7 PSG RESERVES ITSELF THE RIGHT TO VOID ITS WARRANTY OR DENY TECHNICAL ADVICE IF THE furnace HAS NOT BEEN SOLD OR INSTALLED BY A PROFESSIONAL. REGISTER YOU WARRANTY ONLINE To receive full warranty coverage, you will need to show evidence of the date you purchased your furnace . Keep your sales invoice. We also recommend that you register your warranty online at Registering your warranty online will help us track rapidly the information we need on your furnace . WARNING : THE Installation OF THIS APPLIANCE REQUIRES THE ADDITION OF A BLOWER ASSEMBLY (PA08566) NOT INCLUDED. 1. INTRODUCTION Take note that this furnace operates like an EPA wood burning stove. This applies to the lighting, the ember bed, and the minimum combustion air intake which was determined based on the use of good seasoned cordwood. The Max Caddy furnace was tested and approved according to the CSA Standard. To optimize the efficiency of your furnace , here is some advice that you should follow when installing or operating your Max Caddy.

8 Respect the local codes (when in doubt, consult your local dealer); Make sure your furnace is installed according to the instructions on the certification label; All controls and adjustments must be performed by a qualified technician. The blower speed must conform to the recommendations of local codes and should respect the static pressure ranges in the warm air plenum of the furnace . We recommend that our wood burning hearth products be installed and serviced by professionals who are certified in the United States by NFI (National Fireplace Institute ) or in Canada by WETT (Wood Energy Technical Training) or in Quebec by APC (Association des Professionnels du Chauffage). 6 2.

The recommended heating area for a given appliance is defined by the manufacturer as its capacity to maintain a minimum acceptable temperature considering that the space configuration and the presence of heat distribution systems have a significant impact in making heat circulation optimum. (1) Values are as measured per CSA , except for the recommended heating area, firebox volume, maximum burn time and maximum input capacity. Performances based on a fuel load prescribed by the standard at 10 lb/ft and with moisture content between 18% and 28%.

10 (2) Input value at 10lb/ft fuel loading density and dry energy value of 8,600 BTU/lb. (3) Overall: Radiated and delivered heat together at10lb/ft fuel loading density over one total burn cycle. (4) Efficiency based on delivered heat when allowing cycling from high to low burn to simulate thermostat demand. (5) Higher Heating Value of the fuel. (6) Lower Heating Value of the fuel. (7) Delivered: Remotely provided to other rooms through ducting at 10 lb/ft fuel loading density over one total burn cycle. (8) Efficiency based on radiated and delivered heat when allowing cycling from high to low burn to simulate thermostat demand. (9) Optimum overall efficiency at a specific burn rate (LHV). (10) Based on delivered heat output. (11) This appliance is officially tested and certified by an independent agency. (12) Carbon Monoxyde. Based on overall heat output at 10lb/ft fuel loading density. (13) Unless stated otherwise, measures were taken directly at the main power source and include all electrical components present in the appliance.
