Basement Installation:
18.
professional installer. For basement installations, a 3" (three inch) pipe and coupler must be
used for Outside Combustion Air, and a minimum clearance of 3' (three feet) must be maintained
from the ground to the pellet vent exhaust pipe outside the dwelling. Keep in mind that each
elbow used reduces draft by 15%; it is good practice to add 3' (three feet) of vertical rise for each
elbow used. Example:
terminating your vent pipe.
Attach the spring handle to the door by turning it counterclockwise.
1.
Important: Also check hopper latches – must be tight so that the top is sealed to prevent
back-burn.
Test your 110-volt outlet for current and then plug in the unit. (We highly recommend a surge
2.
protector for our pellet unit, as the control panel is electronic).
It is important to note that this stove is equipped with a dual auger system. The top auger runs
3.
intermittently and drops pellets to the bottom auger; the bottom auger runs constantly and simply
pushes the pellets forward to the burn pot. The control board ("Heat Range") setting determines
the top auger feed rate.
The stove has a digital read-out control board and is started by pressing the "ON" touch pad. This
4.
will start the upper auger, bottom auger and exhaust blower. The room air blower will start later
as the stove reaches the pre-set blower temperature (see "Control Board" section for further
explanation).
Check to be sure both augers and the exhaust blower are operating before connecting the unit to
5.
the flue system. Be sure to "dry run" your unit for 20 minutes before connecting it to the flue (it
should stop automatically after 20 minutes).
IMPORTANT! READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS, INCLUDING
CLEANING THE UNIT AS SPECIFIED, AND REPLACING GASKETS ANNUALLY, AND PARTS AS NEEDED.
