1 2 Installation (For Qualified Installers Only)

Alcove Installation Requirements

When the pellet stove is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less than 7' tall, it is considered an alcove installation. Because of the reduced height, the requirements listed below must be met.

•

Minimum height is 60"

•

Maximum depth is 48"

•

Minimum width is 46"

•

Minimum clearance of 9" on each side and 3" on back

Baffle Installation

Install the baffles included with the stove (see page 29 for details).

Door Seal Verification

The door is aligned prior to leaving the factory. However, shipping and installation may cause the door to become mis-aligned. Verify the door is correctly aligned and seals properly (see the section "Door Seal" under Yearly Maintenance).

Restrictor Adjustment

The restrictor is used to adjust airflow to the firepot. It should be adjusted to match the heat output setting and burn the pellets at the appropriate rate. This keeps the firepot as clean as possible.

For low heat output settings the restrictor will need to be closed or near closed to limit the amount of air. This prevents the stove from burning the pellet fuel faster than it is fed.

For medium heat output settings the restrictor will need to be opened to a medium position.

For high heat output settings the restrictor will need to be opened to a high position. This prevents the firepot from over-filling with pellets and becoming clogged with ash clumps.

Keeping your firepot clean is the most important step to maintaining a safe and efficient stove. Check and clean your firepot daily until you find the correct restrictor settings and appropriate firepot cleaning interval.

Not Enough Air

If clinkers (ashes that solidify into a clump) develop or the flame appears lazy and slow to blow the ash out of the firepot, pull the restrictor outward until the flame becomes active and the firepot holes remain clean. NOTE: If the restrictor is fully out, yet the firepot does not remain clean, the stove needs to be cleaned and checked for air leaks (see “Maintenance” section of this manual).

Too Much Air

If the flames are too active (small, flickering flames) or if burning pellets are expelled from the firepot, move the restrictor rod inwards until the flame slows down and no burning pellets are expelled (note: it is okay to have “glowing embers” jump out of the firepot). Another symptom of too much air is the heater “blowing the fire out” – a condition in which the pellets burn faster than they are fed (this is most common on low)
