3 FUEL SPECIFICATIONS
3.1 FUEL SPECIFICATIONS
Pellets (Fig. 3.1) are made from various types of
mechanically compacted wood in compliance with
environmental protection standards. Pellets are the
only fuel that can be used on this type of stove.
The efficiency and heat output of the stove may vary
in relation to the type and quality of pellets used.
The pellet stove requires pellets with the following
characteristics:
-
diameter ~ 6 mm;
-
max. length 30 mm;
-
max. moisture content 6 - 9%.
The stove has a pellet hopper with the capacity
specified in the technical data table in the Product
Booklet enclosed.
The pellet hopper is located at the top of the stove.
It must always be able to be opened to load the
pellets, and must remain closed during operation.
Due to temperature control requirements, operation
on traditional wood is not possible.
The stove must not be used as a rubbish incinerator.
3.2 STORING THE PELLETS
The pellets must be kept in a place that's dry and
not too cold.
It's suggested to keep some sacks of pellets in
the same room where the stove is installed or an
adjacent room, as long as the temperature and
humidity are acceptable, at a safe distance (at least
one meter) from heat sources.
Damp and/or cold pellets (5°C) reduce the fuel heat
value and mean the burn pot (unburned material)
and firebox will need to be cleaned more frequently.
Pay special care when storing and handling the
sacks of pellets. Make sure these are not crushed
to prevent the pellets from becoming sawdust.
Sawdust introduced into the hopper may block the
pellet feed system.
Use of poor quality pellets may affect normal pellet
