Introduction

ELECTRICAL:  The  use  of  a  surge  protected  power  bar  is  recommended. 

The  unit  must  be 

grounded. The grounded electrical cord should be connected to a standard 115 volts (4.7 Amps), 60 

hertz electrical outlet.  Be careful that the electrical cord is not trapped under the appliance and that it is 

clear of any hot surfaces or sharp edges and also must be accessible. If this power cord should become 

damaged, a replacement power cord must be purchased from the manufacture or a qualified ENVIRO 

dealer. This unit’s maximum power requirement is 540 watts.

GLASS:

 Do not abuse the glass by striking or slamming the door.  Do not attempt to operate the stove 

with broken glass. The stove uses ceramic glass. Replacement glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO 

dealer.  Do not attempt to open the door and clean the glass while the unit is in operation or if glass is 

hot. To clean the glass, use a soft cotton cloth and mild window cleaner, gas or wood stove glass cleaner, 

or take a damp paper towel and dip into the fly ash. This is a very mild abrasive and will not damage the 

glass.

FLAMMABLE  LIQUIDS:

 

Never 

use  gasoline,  gasoline-type  lantern  fuel,  kerosene,  charcoal  lighter 

fluid, or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a fire in the heater.  Keep all such liquids well away from 

the heater while it is in use.

SMOKE  DETECTOR:

  Smoke  detectors  should  be  installed  and  maintained  in  the  structure  when 

installing and operating a pellet burning appliance.

OPERATION:

 The ash pan and door must be closed securely for proper and safe operation of the pellet 

stove. Also ensure all gaskets on the door are checked and replaced when necessary.  

INSTALLATION:

 Be sure to maintain the structural integrity of your home when passing a vent through 

walls, ceilings, or roofs. It is recommended that the unit be secured into its position in order to avoid any 

displacement.
DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.

FRESH AIR:

 Outside Fresh Air connection is optional. Must be connected to all units installed in Mobile 

and “Air Tight Homes” (R2000) or where required by local codes. Consider all large air moving devices 

when installing your unit and provide room air accordingly. Limited air for combustion may result in poor 

performance, smoking and other side effects of poor combustion.

If you have any questions with regards to your stove or the above-mentioned information, please feel 

free to contact your local dealer for further clarification and comments.

SINCE  SHERWOOD  INDUSTRIES  LTD.  HAS  NO  CONTROL  OVER  THE  INSTALLATION  OF 

YOUR STOVE, SHERWOOD INDUSTRIES LTD. GRANTS NO WARRANTY IMPLIED OR STATED 

FOR  THE  INSTALLATION  OR  MAINTENANCE  OF  YOUR  STOVE.  THEREFORE,  SHERWOOD 

INDUSTRIES LTD. ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE(S).
