Aspen
Woodburning Stove
®
Thank you for choosing a Vermont Castings Aspen to meet your heating needs. We're confident you will find the
Aspen to be an effective wood-burning heater incorporating modern, non-catalytic combustion technology with the
classic aesthetic appeal of its Vermont Castings lineage.
The Aspen achieves high-efficiency through precisely calibrated delivery of primary and secondary air into a refrac-
tory-insulated firebox. Properly operated and maintained according to the guidelines in this manual, your Aspen will
provide safe, dependable, and economical heating for years to come.
The Aspen Model 190 has been tested to current standards. The test standards are UL-148 for the United States
and EN1340:001 + A:004 for Europe.
The Aspen Model 190 is listed for burning wood fuel only. Do not burn other fuels.
The Aspen Model 190 is approved for installation in manufactured (mobile) homes in the United States only using
the optional Mobile Home Kit #1898 in accordance with the instructions in that kit and any local codes.
We recommend that you hire a professional, solid-fuel stove technician to install your Aspen, or to advise you on the
installation should you attempt to install it yourself. Consult the authority having local jurisdiction (such as a munici-
pal building department, fire department, fire prevention bureau, etc.) before installation to determine the need for a
building permit. Also, consult your insurance agent to be sure your installation complies with specific requirements that
may vary locally.
In addition to directions on installation and operation, this manual includes directions on maintenance and assembly.
Please read this entire manual before you install or operate your new room heater.
