Hello. New to the site and wood Burning inserts/stoves.
I am looking for any information on a Canadian manufactured, single door unit. It has a Warnock Hersey solid fuel burning certification and stamped WH-69988, also states models FX214, Fx235, Aug 1984. It also carries a Concord brand on the label. I set an email to a Concord insert company and they stated they had no knowledge of this unit.
The dimensions: 23 1/2" wide front and 21 3/4" rear, 26" deep with 10" stick out into room, 25" height. This unit is plate steel and is wrapped on the back 16" with plate steel, an air gap around the sides and top and flared to accept the outer trim to fireplace. Fire bricks line the bottom and come part way up the sides. It has two air intake channels on either side with doors at mid height that can me adjusted and fixed with a bolt, Finally Brass wrapped arched door and brass spring handles on each side on intakes and top damper. It also has an 8" opening on top. on the ceiling of the fire box it has firebricks aligned on an angle.
I know pictures would help, but I cant currently download them onto this site.
So any and all info will be helpful. It was installed in a masonry fireplace that had the damper removed and the ceiling of the fire box was covered in tin and sealed to accept the 8" exhaust. No liner or top damper was used. The unit was clean and in good working order.
I am going to relocate it into another masonry fireplace and would like to vent into a 6" liner to the top. I don't expect to use it more than 30 days a year if that .
If I cant vent it into 6" I may copy the former venting procedure but that makes the chimney sweeping a problem. If nothing else I can install it as a decorative stove, although I would like to use it occasionally.
Your help is appreciated!
