The Empyre Pro Series outdoor furnace is leading the way in new
high efficiency clean burning technology. For you, this efficiency
means savings all around. The Pro Series burns cord wood, a
renewable resource and easily accessible in many areas; the Pro
Series requires no splitting of wood. Although the firebox is
smaller and requires less wood, it maintains burn times
comparable to conventional outdoor furnaces at the same output,
leaving you with less work and more time. Clean burning also
means that the furnace does most of the work. Constant ash
cleanup is obsolete with the Pro Series. Although ash is minimal,
the Pro Series built-in cleaning portals make sweeping out fly ash
from the fire chamber and flues a quick and simple task. The high
heat of the gasification process also eliminates creosote buildup in
the chimney and reduces moisture in the outdoor wood boiler
unit, preventing rust.
The Empyre Pro Series combines the simplicity and safety of a
conventional furnace with the savings and technology of a high
efficiency furnace to provide heat for your house, greenhouse,
pool, shop, or other buildings.
Heat from the Pro Series dual burn chamber is transferred to the
furnace’s built-in water reservoir through a series of flues. This
heated water is then channelled to your home’s heating system
through underground insulated pipes. The Pro Series` full length
back door makes plumbing simple.
In a house, the heated water connects directly to the radiant or
forced air heating system through a heat exchanger. Similarly, the
Pro Series heats all domestic hot water through a sidearm heat
exchanger installed on the outdoor furnace's hot water tank.
How It Works
The Pro Series
Digital Control Panel
The Pro Series features a digital control panel which allows the
operator to regulate the furnace’s heat output.
Float Ball
By popular demand, the Pro Series also features the proven
Empyre float ball water level indicator.
Door
The Pro Series` wood furnace pressure sealed locking door keeps
the heat in the furnace and prevents unauthorized access.
Exhaust Curtain
The built-in exhaust exit and smoke curtain allows the smoke to
escape through the top flues instead of out the door when loading
the furnace.
Safety
The Pro Series meets CSA/UL safety standards and EPA Phase I and
Phase II emissions standards.
Applications
The Empyre Pro Series High Efficiency Furnace is ideal for a
variety of applications. It can be used for a single building or
residence or piped to other areas. The diagrams below show just a
few of the possible applications. Contact an outdoor furnace
dealer near you for information on setting up an Empyre to meet
your needs.
Radiant In-Floor Heating
In-floor heating is the most efficient and comfortable heating
option, as hot water flows through tubes in the floor of a house or
building, providing consistent heat.
Forced Air Systems
Heat can also be transferred from the Empyre Pro Series through
your existing forced air system. A water-to-air heat exchanger
converts heat from the water into usable heat for your forced air
system.
Domestic Hot Water, Pools, and Hot Tubs
In addition to heating houses and other buildings, the Empyre Pro
Series Furnace also provides heat for all domestic hot water.
Generally a side arm heat exchanger unit is installed to your hot
water tank. Similarly, the Empyre Pro Series can provide heat for
pools and hot tubs through a water-to-water heat exchanger
installed on the pool heater.
Other Buildings
Other applications, such as greenhouses, shops, sheds, and other
outbuildings use similar hookup methods, and in most cases, a
single Empyre unit can provide heat for several buildings.
