Simple Operation & Maintenance
Empyre Elite is a revolution in indoor wood furnace systems. It
operates best with large diameter logs a few inches shorter than
the length of the firebox, so there is no need to split wood or cut
it into short lengths. The wide loading door makes loading quick
and simple. With new clean-burning technology, the Empyre Elite
does most of the work - combustion and cleaning. When
necessary, ash is easily swept from the lower burn chamber into
the furnace width ash pan. The Elite’s Easy Flue design and the
flue cleaning rod (included) makes sweeping out the flues a quick
and simple process. The Empyre Elite is easy to integrate into
practically any home’s existing heating system. It can be installed
into a 6” chimney liner and connects to floor heat or existing duct
work with a water to air heat exchanger.
WOOD-ELECTRIC HYBRID Electric Element Option
One feature that truly makes the Empyre Elite “elite” is the
Electric Element Option.These easy to install electric elements
make the Empyre Elite a versatile, convenient and cost effective
alternative to fossil fuels. Instead of forcing homeowners to plan
their lifestyles around their indoor or outside wood boiler, the
Empyre Elite Electric Element Unit makes wood heating a
practical option.
Simple Operation: The Electric Element Option has its own
programmable temperature controller. Separate toggle switches
for the furnace and the electric element allow you to heat
exclusively with wood or with electricity, or to set the electric
elements to start automatically when the furnace runs out of
wood.
Simple Installation: Standard Empyre Elite models are equipped
with electric element ports, making installation a simple process.
Empyre Elite units can be ordered with the Electric Element
Option factory installed or order it as an add-on to an existing
Empyre Elite boiler.
Safety: The Empyre Elite Electric Element Unit has been tested
and approved to UL 834 Standard and CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 165-92
safety standards for installation exclusively on the Empyre Elite
100.
Flexibility: The Electric Element Option offers complete control
over the heat source by allowing the operator to choose a single
heat source - either electric or wood - or set one to serve as
backup to the other. With separate control panels, keep your
home at a cooler temperature when you are away, but at higher
temperatures when you are at home. Or save the electric element
for the summer months when you need minimal heat for domestic
hot water.
Of the Grid
Give yourself ultimate flexibility with the indoor wood boilers.
Wood is a local, renewable, economical and easily accessible fuel
in many regions, making it an ideal replacement for imported non-
renewable fossil fuels. The Empyre Elite Electric Element Option
allows you to easily transition from wood to electric heat based on
cost and convenience. You can also set your furnace to switch
automatically from wood to electric when you plan to be away for
a few days.
