Wall Thermostat (option)
OPERATION
Your pellet appliance is capable of running in an automatic mode with the use of a wall thermostat. The “AcuTron” gives you a choice, “ON / OFF on Demand” or “LOW / HIGH”. The ON / OFF mode automatically turns the heater On and will Shut Off on demand. The LOW / HIGH mode will keep your heater active and cycle between #1 (LOW) setting and your selected (HIGH) setting.
In most circumstances the BEST operation, and recommended, under thermostat control is the LOW / HIGH cycle.
Upon Start Up, in thermostat mode, the default running mode will be the LOW /
HIGH mode.
