How does the furnace work?
The fire box is surrounded by water. When the water temperature in the furnace drops below the set temperature on the furnace, the Air Injection System automatically turns on. Air is then injected beneath the fire and across the top of the firebox to increase burn intensity. Waste materials (smoke and cresote) are burned as fuel rather than discarded smoke. Water tubes in the top of the fire box make up a water baffle to transfer more heat into the water. A bypass is opened up when loading wood to allow smoke to go up the chimney instead of escaping from the loading door.
