Room Sensor Installation
6P61A Pellet Stove
Unpacking
The P61A is bolted (1/4 x 1" hex head bolts) to the skid to prevent movement during shipping.
To free the stove from the skid you must remove the
Removing rear cover panels
The rear cover panels are secured to the stove with three bolts each. Two of the bolts need only be loosened, not removed, to remove the panels. It is recommended that the rear covers are installed after the unit is in place and the vent pipe is installed, to prevent contact with hot or moving parts.
Firebrick
Install the three firebricks vertically on the angle bracket above the burnpot.
Flame Guide
Install the cast iron flame guide on top of the burn pot. Make sure that the flame guide is fully seated on the vertical sides of the burn pot and that the back of the guide rests against the body of the stove.
INSTALL EXHAUST VENT AT CLEARANCES SPECIFIED BY THE MANUFACTURER. Most pellet vent pipe requires a minimum of 3" of clearance to combustible materials although some can be installed at 1" clearance.
The room sensor is a small temperature sensor on the end of a 60" wire. This sensor is installed much like a standard wall thermostat. Because it is so small, it can be hidden along the trim of a doorway or even up the leg of a coffee table. There is a remote room sensor port on the rear of the unit for easy external connec- tion.

In most installations locating the room sensor behind the stove near the distribution fan works well because the sensor monitors the room air being drawn into the distribution fan.
NOTE: Distances of more than 25 feet from the unit or in another room are not recommended. The room sensor is essential for the P61A's excellent ef- ficiency.
NOTE: It is recommended that the room sensor
be installed, even if only installed on the rear of the unit as a return air sensor.
