USE OF A THERMOSTAT
St. Croix Pellet stoves offer our customers the optional feature of thermostatically controlling your
new stove. By using a thermostat to control the operation of your Stove, you can benefit two ways.
First of all, after setting the thermostat to your desired heating needs, the stove will operate
accordingly to uniformly maintain your desired temperature setting. Secondly, the fuel consumption is
being optimized, which ultimately results in lowering your seasonal heating costs.
While the room temperature remains cooler than your desired thermostat setting, the stove will operate
at any of the 5 HEAT ADJUST selector positions. Read the Operations manual to determine which
Thermostat Mode you want to use. You can choose between Manual and T-Stat Mode.
Do not use the
“SmartStat” Mode. This setting is only for stoves with Igniters.
1.
Once you have successfully lit your stove, set the thermostat to your desired heating needs.
2.
Set the HEAT ADJUST selector to a position that will effectively create a rise in room temperature
above your thermostat setting. The recommended heat settings while using a thermostat are any
position between 2 through 5.
Thermostat Hook-up
Connect the wires from the thermostat to the external wire terminal on the back of the stove (see
figure 18 on the following page).
