To receive full warranty coverage, you will 
need to show evidence of the date you 
purchased your stove. We suggest that you 
attach your sales invoice to this page, and fill 
in the form on the left, so that you will have all 
the information you need in one place should 
the need for service or information occur. 

Thank you for purchasing your pellet burning stove, you are now prepared to burn wood in the most ef

fi

 cient, 

convenient way possible. To achieve the safest, most ef

fi

 cient and most enjoyable performance from your 

stove, you must do three things: 1) Install it properly; 2) Operate it correctly; and 3) Maintain it regularly. The 
purpose of this manual is to help you do all three.

PLEASE read this entire manual before installation and use of this pellet fuel-burning room heater. Fail-
ure to follow these instructions could result in property damage, bodily injury or even death.

Keep this manual handy for future reference.

This stove has been independently tested to ASTM E1509-12 Standard Speci

fi

 cation for Room Heaters, Pellet 

Fuel Burning Type 1, ULC-S627 Standard for Solid Fuel Room Heaters, and Oregon Administrative Rules for 
Mobile Homes (814-23-900 through 814-23-909) and Installation as a Stove Heater.

This pellet stove, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the ab-
sence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

The authority having jurisdiction (such as municipal building department, 

fi

 re department, 

fi

 re preven-

tion bureau, etc.) should be consulted before installation to determine the need to obtain a permit.

This appliance is designed speci

fi

 cally for use only with pelletized wood. It is designed for residential installa-

tion according to current national and local building codes as a freestanding room heater. It is also approved as 
a mobile home heater which is designed for connection to an outside combustion air source.

The stove will not operate using natural draft or without a power source for the blower systems and fuel feed 
system and must not be burned with any type of coal (see 

PROPER FUEL

).

This stove is designed to provide the optimum proportions of fuel and air to the 

fi

 re in order to burn free of 

smoke and soot. Any blockage of the air supply to or from the stove will seriously degrade its performance and 
will be evidenced by a smoking exhaust and a sooting window. For best operation the ash content of the pellet 
fuel should be less than 1% and the calori

fi

 c value approximately 8200 BTU/LB. Avoid high ash content fuels 

because this will rapidly 

fi

 ll up the burn pot and eventually cut off the combustion air supply.

Commercial and industrial installations of this pellet toves should not be used since operational control is often 
not well managed in these settings.
