Power Supply Requirements
These requirements must be met unless otherwise specified by state or
local authorities.
• Power Cord - The power cord must be plugged into a standard, 120
Volt, 60 Hz grounded electrical outlet with proper ground and polarity.
The power cord must be routed to avoid contact with any of the hot
or sharp exterior surface areas of the stove.
• Power Supply - 575 Watts, and will peak up to 782 Watts during the
30 minute cycle when igniter is operating.
• Manufactured Home Installations - When installed into a manufac-
tured home, the appliance must be electrically grounded to the steel
chassis of the manufactured home (see Page 8 , Manufactured Home
Requirements).
Smoke Detector Recommended
Since there are always several potential sources of fire in any home, we
recommend installing smoke detectors. If possible, install the smoke
detector in a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility of
occasional false activation from the heat produced by these appliances).
If your local code requires a smoke detector be installed within the same
room, you must follow the requirements of your local code. Check with
your local building department for requirements in your area.
Carbon Monoxide Monitor Recommended
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning : Early signs of carbon monoxide poison-
ing are similar to the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you
have these signs, obtain fresh air immediately. Some people are more
affected by carbon monoxide than others, including pregnant women,
people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence
of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
It is against federal regulations to operate wood heaters in a man-
ner inconsistent with operating instructions in the manual.
Surge Protectors
A surge protector is recommended to ensure the stove’s electrical com-
ponents are not damaged due to a surge in the electrical supply. Only
high quality protectors listed to UL1449 should be used - low quality
protectors do not provide the protection needed.
Installation / Maintenance Standards
National Fire Protection Association – The primary NFPA standard that
refers to installation and maintenance of pellet stoves and venting is
NFPA 211 – Latest Edition: Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel
appliances.
