  • Page 4: Specifications

    Heating Specifications Heat Output Heating Capacity Fuel Burn Rate Burn Time (lowest setting) Hopper Capacity BTU output will vary depending on the quality and type of fuel. Use PFI listed fuels for the best results. Heating capacity will vary depending on floor plan layout of your home, degree of insulation, and the outside temperature. Fuel size may effect the actual rate of fuel feed and burn times.
  • Page 5: Fuel Considerations

    SHELLED CORN • Optimum moisture content of corn should be 11% or less. Wet corn will rapidly deteriorate furnace components, reduce efficiency and void all warranties. Purchase a moisture tester if in doubt. • Corn must be clean and free from debris. Never burn corn right from the field. Damage caused by dirty corn is not covered by the product warranty.

  • Page 10: Through The Wall Installation

    THROUGH THE WALL INSTALLATION To vent the unit through the wall, connect the pipe adapter to the exhaust motor adapter. If the exhaust adapter is at least 18-inches above ground level, a straight section of pellet vent pipe can be used through the wall. Your furnace dealer should be able to provide you with a kit that will handle most of this installation, which will wall thimble that will allow the proper clearance through a combustible wall.
  • Page 11: Primary And Secondary Furnace Illustrations

    Installation PRIMARY FURNACE SECONDARY (ADD-ON) FURNACE When installed as a seondary furnace, a Duct Damper must be installed between the air discarge of the Pellet furnace and the primary (Gas, Electric, etc.). Damper must be an electric style damper in order to connect to the multi fuel furnace’s PCB (Printed Circuit Board).
  • Page 12: Operation

    Do not operate your furnace with the viewing door open. The auger will not feed fuel under these circumstances and a safety concern may arise from sparks or fumes entering the room. A working smoke detector must be installed in the same room as this product. Hopper Lid must be closed during operation.
  • Page 13: Control Panel

    Operation CONTROL PANEL Turning the furnace OFF/ON, as well as adjustments for the fuel feed rate and room fan speed are performed by pressing the appropriate button(s) on the control panel which is located on the lower left-hand side of your American Harvest furnace.

Attach the electrical cord to the back of the furnace first; then plug it into a 110-volt outlet (an outlet surge protector is highly recommended).
  • Page 15: Daily Operation

    DAILY OPERATION The hopper and furnace top will be hot during operation; therefore, you should always use some type of hand protection when refueling your furnace. Never place your hand near the auger while the furnace is in operation. In the event of a power outage, the furnace WILL NOT function. It is very important that unit be vented properly, as the natural draft is needed to clear the smoke from the furnace during a power outage.
