Santa Fe NZ Pellet Stove
7068-114B
D. Thermostat Location
1.
A low voltage thermostat can be installed to operate
this pellet fire. You may use the optional wall mount
thermostat kit (“Figure 23.1”) or purchase a program
-
mable thermostat, timer or remote control. The optional
wall mount thermostat is equipped with an adjustable
heat anticipator. The current rating is .05 amps. The
anticipator needs to be adjusted to the lowest setting
available.
2.
When mounting a thermostat on a wall, be sure to fol
-
low your thermostat installation instructions carefully.
Warning! Risk of Asphyxiation! Negative pressure can cause
spillage of combustion fumes and soot.
Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air
available for the appliance to operate properly. It can be
strongest in lower levels of the house.
Causes include:
• Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.)
• Range hoods
• Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water
heaters and other combustion appliances
• Heat transfer kits
• Clothes dryers
• Location of return-air vents to furnace or air conditioning
• Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system
• Upper level air leaks such as:
• Recessed lighting
• Attic hatch
• Duct leaks
To minimize the effects of negative air pressure:
• Install the outside air kit with the intake facing prevailing
winds during the heating season
• Ensure adequate outdoor air for all combustion
appliances and exhaust equipment
• Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are
not located in the immediate vicinity of the appliance
• Avoid installing the appliance near doors, walkways or
small isolated spaces
• Recessed lighting should be a “sealed can” design
• Attic hatches weather stripped or sealed
• Attic mounted duct work and air handler joints and
seams taped or sealed structures, uneven roof lines
and other obstructions.
• Minimize the use of chimney offsets.
• Consider the appliance location relative to floor and
ceiling and attic joists.
• Take into consideration the termination requirements
on
page .
C. Negative Pressure
Figure 23.1
NOTE: Thermostat must be mounted level for accurate
readings. The thermostat should be mounted on an inside
wall, not directly in line with the appliance’s convection air
and away from drafts.
NOTE: Thermostats are not recommended for old drafty
poorly insulted house as the fire may start and stop often
increasing cleaning schedules, increase power consumption
and potentially reducing component life
3.
There is a 4 screw terminal block located on the
back lower left corner of the stove directly above the power
cord inlet. The centre 2 screws are for the thermostat
wires. Closing the terminals will activate the fire.
E. Locating Your Appliance & Flue
Location of the appliance and flue will affect performance.
• It is recommended that you install through the warm
airspace enclosed by the building envelope. This helps
to produce more draft, especially during lighting and
die-down of the fire.
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes
the affects of wind loading.
• Locate termination cap away from trees, adjacent
structures, uneven roof lines and other obstructions.
• Minimize the use of chimney offsets.
• Consider the appliance location relative to floor and ceiling
and attic joists.
• Take into consideration the termination requirements on
page
Inspect appliance and components for
damage. Damaged parts may impair safe
operation.
WARNING
• Do NOT install damaged components.
• Do NOT install incomplete components.
• Do NOT install substitute components.
Report damaged parts to dealer.
