P68 Pellet Stove
The room sensor is a small temperature sensor on the
end of a 60" wire. This sensor is installed much like a
standard wall thermostat. Because it is so small, it can
be hidden along the trim of a doorway or even up the
leg of a coffee table. There is a remote room sensor port
on the rear of the unit for easy external connection. Use
standard 18-2 thermostat wire to extend the distance to
the desired location (50' maximum). The room sensor
should be installed in the location where you want to
control the temperature.
In most installations locating the room sensor behind
the stove near the distribution fan works well because
the sensor monitors the room air being drawn into the
distribution fan.
NOTE: Distances of more than 25 feet from the unit or in
another room are not recommended. The room sensor
is essential for the P68's excellent efficiency.
NOTE:
it is recommended that the room sensor be
installed,
even if only installed on the rear of the unit
as a return air sensor.

Two (2) that only need to be loosened, and one (1) that
needs to be completely removed, to allow the shield to
slide away from the unit.
note: it is not recommended that the unit be
operated with the shields removed, due to the hot
