8" Magic Heat Wood Stove Heat Reclaimer

8'' Magic Heat Wood Stove Heat Reclaimer - Blower - Flue Heat Exchanger - Heat Reclaiming Device

What is the purpose of a Wood Stove Heat Reclaimer - Blower- Flue Heat Exchanger - Heat Reclaiming Device?

Most people buy a wood stove as a focal point for their room and for its heating properties. Many homes now use wood stoves to supplement their home heating or as its exclusive heat source. It is important to note that even the most efficient heating appliances let a large quantity of the heat escape up the chimney (flue) in the form of hot air, gases, and smoke. The purpose of a heat reclaimer is to capture the heat from the exhaust air escaping up your wood stove's flue and put it into the house, In short, a heat reclaimer uses the laws of thermodynamics to save you a lot of money on your heating bill and that is money back in your pocket!

The 8" Magic Heat Reclaimer is designed as a true heat exchanger. The exhaust heat and gases travel upward through the flue, circulating around, and heating, the ten heat-exchanger tubes. Air from outside of the stove pipe is forced through the heated tubes where it is warmed and then forced out into the room, literally reclaiming heat that otherwise would be lost out the chimney. The built-in, pre-set thermostat automatically turns the blower fan on and off when the proper temperature is reached,

How Do I Get the Most Heat Out of My Wood Stove?

The most important factors for the safe usage of the 8" Magic Heat Reclaimer are proper operation and regular cleaning, Make sure that the inside flue temperature of your stove is above 350 degrees (skin temperatures of 250 degrees), at a settled down, steady burn rate. If possible, measure the stack draft, the flue gas temperature, and the Carbon Dioxide level of the flue gases at the sample points on your appliance as described in the user manual. Never over-fire your appliance because it can damage your chimney and pose a fire risk, and don't operate the stove at too low a temperature as this can lead to excessive soot and creosote build up. Avoid burning green of soft wood as this too will promote soot and creosote build up and make sure to operate your stove at the suggested level as specified in the U.L. Standard for Safety, U.L. 103. (e.g. for a 8" chimney size the burn rate should be 97,000 BTU/Hr. using 12.1 Lbs./Hr. of wood, or 6.0 Lbs./Hr. of coal. Where a 6" Oak log = 8.8 Lbs./Ft. or 4.5 Lbs./Ft. split.

How to Clean Magic Heat Reclaimer?

Daily cleaning involves using the Soot Scraper knob to scrape the soot off the heat exchanger tubes several times during the day, In addition to scraping the tubes, burn paper or cardboard every other day to assisting with cleaning the tubes. You may also use a soot remover product during the course of normal operation. Periodically, for example during chimney cleaning time, uninstall the 8" Magic Heat Reclaimer from the flue pipe and manually inspect and clean. Clean with a long handled, stiff bristled brush using soap and water, cleaning solvent, or a commercial soot remover. When finished, coat the tubes with a light coat of oil to prevent rust. For really tough cleaning jobs, you can use ammonia to help. Place the ammonia in a container in a well ventilated area and set the Magic Heat Reclaimer on top of it (covering the outlet) for one to two hours. This should work the creosote loose and make it easier to scrub away. Follow all of the precautions on the ammonia container label and ensure proper ventilation
