GreenStart 3 WD F/S Igniter for Lopi Wood Stoves Made in USA

Starting your wood stove or insert has never been easier! Much like Charles Kettering’s invention of the electric automobile ignition 100 years ago, the GreenStart^® igniter system has evolved the ignition of wood in a spectacular way and has become the greatest innovation in wood heating in over 100 years.

Starting a wood fire is now as convenient as pushing a button. This incredible ignition system eliminates the mess of starting a fire with matches and newspaper, while increasing safety at the same time.

The patent-pending, breakthrough technology of the GreenStart^® system works much like a blacksmith’s bellows. When you push the button you start an igniter which heats the air to 1,400 degrees F. The compressor (bellows) then forces the super-heated air into the firebox, lighting the wood for a fast, clean, smoke-free startup. The fire starts in a matter of a few minutes with the whole process lasting 15 minutes.

The GreenStart^® system is also perfect for refreshing a fire; add new fuel to the hot coals and push the button twice. Pushing the button twice will bypass the igniter and turn on the compressor, adding enough air to ignite the hot coals. There is no need to blow on the coals or leave the door ajar, saving time and increasing safety.

For best results, dry, seasoned wood is required when using the GreenStart® system. Using dry, seasoned wood also increases the efficiency of your wood stove or insert while lowering creosote build-up on the glass and in the chimney.

The compressor assembly that comes with GreenStart® may be placed on the floor or hearth, away from your appliance. It may also be placed in a ventilated enclosure or remote location. If it is placed in a remote location, make sure it is accessible.

Typical installation locations may include:

• Decorative enclosure
• Behind cabinet, bookcase or furniture
• Remote, dry locations: crawl space or attic enclosure
