Please note: damp pellets can cause poor combustion and therefore the above-
mentioned problems. Store your pellets in a dry place at least one metre away
from the stove. We recommend that you choose your pellets carefully. The use of bad
pellets can cause damage to your pellet stove, thus rendering the manufacturer's
guarantee and liability void.
Operation
Basically, a pellet stove works as follows: The pellet stove has a built-in pellet
container. From this hopper the pellets are transported to the burner pot via an auger.
A glow plug ignites the pellets in the firepot. The air required for combustion is forced
past the burner pot by the flue gas fan. The flue gases produced during combustion
are removed by the flue gas fan.
The pellet stove can create a warm air flow in the room in two ways, depending
on the model. One way is by means of a room fan in the stove and the other way
is by means of natural convection. As these air flows also prevent the stove from
overheating, it is very important that the applied air flow works and is not
blocked
