Installation & Operating Instructions
imperative that control compartments, burners and circulat-
ing air passageways of the heater be kept clean.
The EASYFIRE Pellet heater has been designed and
approved for burning PREMIUM WOOD PELLETS OF
HIGHEST BTU OUTPUT AND LOWEST % OF ASH
CONTENT ONLY. Burning biomass fuels in other forms or
poor quality pellet fuel is not permitted and will void
your warranty and/or could cause a burn back or
house fire. FOR BEST RESULTS THE WOOD PELLET
FUEL SHOULD BE ¼" DIAMETER AND
APPROXIMATELY 1". Burning other forms of fuel is not
permitted and will void all warranties.
This unit has been approved for use with a 3" Type L Pellet
Vent System, or recommended 4" over 10' vertical .
NEVER use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuels, kerosene,
charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or "freshen
up" a fire. Keep all such liquids well away from the heater
while it is in use.
Ashes must be disposed of in a metal container with a tight
fitting lid and placed on a noncombustible floor or ground,
well away from all fuels, pending final disposal.
NOTE : During the first few burns the high temperature
paint and sealant used in manufacture will emit some odor
and smoke. Open doors and windows to the outside for
proper ventilation during the first burn cycle and curing of
the paint.
This heater, when installed, must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-
2013.
Provide adequate clearances around air openings into the
combustion chamber and adequate accessibility clearance
for servicing and proper operation. Never obstruct the front
opening of the heater.
The heater may be installed as a free-standing unit mounted
on a non-combustible protective floor pad or hearth. Or it
may be mounted into an existing U. L. approved wood stove
chimney. Non-combustible floor protection is required and
must be used when placing the heater on any combustible
material.
The pellet heater must be operated with a power source and
will not operate using natural draft. If there is a power failure
the heater will shut down. If the 12 volt back system is in-
stalled, the heater will automatically switch to 12 volt power.
The EasyFire Pellet Heater has been designed certified to
ASTM, U.L.,and EPA Standards.
