.don’t burn it down
(continued from facing page)
line the wall with metal
-faced asbestos board from
your hardware store. A
stove should be at least 18
inches off the floor, or else
have tile, brick, or asbestos
under it. This pad should
extend 18 inches forward of
the ash door.
Insulating pads are most
effective when they are
hung a small distance off
the wall, letting air carry
heat from the back of the
pad.
Flue fires are the second
big hazard. A chimney that
is unlined with flue tiles,
not high enough, overbur-
dened with too many stoves
or other heat sources, or
dirty, can cause serious
problems.
Burning green wood in
your stove can lead to a
vv. bw ne
buildup of creosote in the
flue. The creosote can
catch fire and burn your
house down. To help
prevent creosote deposits,
burn dry hardwoods.
If your stove backs
smoke into the room when
you open the stove door,
your chimney may need
cleaning. Metal flue pipes
that don’t ring when you
tap them with your finger-
nail may be dirty, too.
If you ever have a
chimney fire, call the fire
department at once. While
you're waiting for them to
get there, throw lots of
coarse salt on the fire (if
you have some handy) and
then close all the doors and
draft holes and the flue
draft to smother the fire.

You run a much slimmer
chance of having a chimney
fire if you burn well
seasoned dry wood. If you
buy or cut green wood (you
can tell it’s green because
there are no radial cracks
in the log ends), store it in
a dry place for 6 months to
a year and a half.
To help your nice new
stove survive the high
temperatures it is subjected
to, spread an inch or two of
sand all over the bottom
before you start using it.
The bottom plate will get
very hot otherwise.
Never use gasoline,
kerosene, charcoal lighter
fluid, or any other inflam-
able liquid to start your
fires. This practice is very
