USE OF A THERMOSTAT
The Prescott EXP or Prescott EXL offer 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 the T-Stat Mode
and the SmartStat Mode.
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 21 on the following page).
