SMOKE SMELL OR SOOT BUILD-UP
Because it is a wood-burning device, your Bosca SPIRIT 500 Pellet stove may emit a faint wood-
burning odor. If this increases beyond normal, or if you notice any soot build-up on walls or furniture,
check your exhaust system carefully for leaks. All joints should be properly sealed. Also clean your
stove, following instructions in "MAINTENANCE". If problem persists, contact your dealer.
Possibles remedies
Clean any dust off of t he windings and fan
blades. If cleaning the blower does not help, the
blower may be bad.
The highest heat level setting is designed for use
over short periods of time. Burning the stove on
the highest setting for longer than 1—2 hours
could lead to potential overheating situations.
Bosca pellet stoves are designed and tested to
use wood pellets. While it is possible to burn a
corn mixture (corn mixed in with wood pellets)
in the stove, it is not recommended to burn
above the number 3 heat level. Check for signs
of fuel other than wood pellets. If there are signs
of corn being used, find out what mixed was
being used and what setting. No other types of
fuel have been approved for Bosca pellet stoves.
If there are signs of other types of fuel being
used, advise the consumer to stop using them
immediately.
A power surge, spike, or voltage drop could
cause the high limit switch to trip. Check to see
if a surge protector is being used on the stove.
If not, recommend one to the consumer.
If the other items check out ok, replace the high
limit switch.
