- Be aware that the hotter the fire, the less creosote is deposited, and that weekly cleaning may be
necessary in mild weather, even though monthly cleaning may be enough in the coldest
months. Run the Stove on the hottest setting once a day for 30 – 45 minutes to prevent
excessive build-up in the Stove.
- Have a clearly understood plan to handle a chimney fire. Contact the local fire department for
information if needed.
- Keep the doors closed and all seals in good condition while operating the Stove.
- INSPECT THE FLUE PIPES, JOINTS AND SEALS REGULARLY TO ENSURE THAT
SMOKE AND FLUE GASES ARE NOT DRAWN INTO, AND CIRCULATED BY THE
AIR-CIRCULATION SYSTEM.
- CLEANING OF THE HEAT EXCHANGER, FLUE PIPE, CHIMNEY AND DRAFT
INDUCER IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT AT THE END OF THE HEATING SEASON TO
MINIMIZE CORROSION DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS CAUSED BY
ACCUMULATED ASH.
- The Stove will not operate during a power failure. Prolonged Power Outages will require the
use of a generator to operate the Stove.
St Croix SmartScan Maintenance System
“Pre-emptive Monitoring” is an innovative way of detecting when the unit is burning
incorrectly.
The following situations can affect the way a Pellet Stove burns:
Operator Error, Poor Fuel Quality, Plugged Venting System, Plugged Stove, Dirty Burn Pot,
Worn Door Gaskets, Worn Glass Gaskets or Weak Combustion Fan.
How does it work? - The area monitored is inside the Firebox/Burnpot area, directly above the
back edge of the burn pot.
The SmartScan Infra Red sensing system is very accurate. The monitoring takes place from a
remote location, which can sense an object as small as
one pellet and does not depend on
sensing temperatures. Temperature sensing is difficult at this location, because it monitors an
area that fluctuates between extremely hot temperatures during High Burn and temperatures that
aren’t as hot in the burn pot during Low Burn.
By monitoring this area, the stove will shut down when conditions in the Burn Pot fall outside of
the Normal Operating range. Shutting the unit down when fuel reaches this level, will trigger a
diagnostic code that notifies the operator of the stove that the stove needs maintenance. The
above list is intended as a guide to determine where the problem may be.
