Check Firepot for

Clinkers

If the flames seem to be coming only from the sides, or are orange/black, turn the heater off and check for clinkers (ashes that solidify into a clump).

The most likely causes are:

• Restrictor needs adjustment (see “Restrictor Adjustment” in the installation section of this manual)

• Poor pellet quality

•The door or glass has an air leak

•The exhaust system requires cleaning

Cleaning the Firepot

WARNING:

Make sure the heater has fully cooled (approximately 25 minutes) before opening the door and conducting service.

To clean the firepot, open the door (see page 27) and knock away any debris on the firepot with a screwdriver. If severely clogged, remove the firepot to gain better access.
