1.6. VENTING In Canada, we recommend that you use a listed pellet vent that meets the ULC S-609-M89/ORD C441-M90 Standard. For the United States, we recommend that you use a listed pellet vent that meets the UL-641Standard. This unit can be vented in an existing factory-built or masonry chimney with the addition of a liner, provided the chimney is more than 4” in diameter. The liner should be listed and should meet the ULC S-635/640 standard in Canada and the UL1777 standard in the USA.
PAGE 11
a) Horizontally through wall (Refer to figures 11 or 12) NOTE: Follow Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions. 1. Position stove, adhering to clearances shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 & 4. 2. Locate position of hole in wall; directly behind stove exhaust vent (refer to figure 5). 3. Always maintain 3” clearance from combustible materials. 4. Install Vent wall thimble per Vent manufacturer’s instructions. Attach enough piping to penetrate and extend at least 6 inches beyond the exterior wall.
PAGE 12
b) less than 4 feet below or horizontally from, or one foot above, any door, window or gravity air inlet into any building; c) less than two feet from an adjacent building and not less than 7 feet above grade when located adjacent to a public walkway. Mobile home installations must use a spark arrester. Other restrictions may apply, such as the need to maintain a minimum distance to a gas meter. See NFPA 211. CONSULT THE VENT MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS.
PAGE 13
FIGURE 13 Venting through roof c) Vertically into existing chimney system (Refer to Figure 14) As an alternative, 4” Vent can be run inside existing chimney to termination (Figure 14). This is the preferred method. Follow guidelines for equivalent vent length.
PAGE 14
d) Vertically into existing masonry fireplace (Refer to figure 15) NOTE: Follow Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions. 1. Have the masonry chimney inspected by a qualified chimney sweep or installer to determine its structural condition. 2. You will need a pipe length equal to the chimney height from the hearth. If outside combustion air is to be used, you will need a pipe length equal to the chimney height plus 18 inches. 3.
PAGE 15
7. If desired, once the horizontal pipe is in place, the space between the pipe and masonry may be filled with hightemperature grout. Install the trim collar. An adjustable pipe length and adapter may be needed to finish the connection to the stove.

2. OPERATION 2.1. PROPER FUEL THIS STOVE IS APPROVED FOR BURNING four different types of pellets: standard wood pellets, 100% bark pellets, sawdust/hay mix pellets, and switch grass pellets! Each type of pellet has its properties and will burn differently. The ash produced can also vary greatly. Factory-approved pellets are those ¼” or 5/16” in diameter and not over 1” long. Longer or thicker pellets sometimes bridge the auger flights, which prevents proper pellet feed.

A fixed wall mount or hand held model can be used. The control panel can be set up three ways to operate your stove in thermostatic mode. 2.12.1. Thermostat Thermostat Installation • Unplug the stove from the power outlet. • Connect two thermostat wires to the terminal block located on the lower right side of the back of the stove.
PAGE 22
According to your preferences, you can also be able to set the pilot lag time to 30, 45 or 60 minutes. In order to change the pilot lag time, refer to the operation tree at the beginning of this section. NOTE: When in thermostatic mode: • You should not operate the manual control or play with the temperature setting. • YOUR THERMOSTAT SHOULD BE INSTALLED BY AN AUTHORIZED DEALER OR SERVICE PERSON. The size of wires will vary with the distance: DISTANCE 20 ft 30 ft 40 ft 50 ft 2.13.
PAGE 23
If your stove runs out of pellets, the fire goes out and the auger motor and blowers will run until the stove cools down. This will take a few minutes. After the stove’s components stop running, a warning message “NO FUEL” will appear on the LCD display. To restart the stove, press the “RESET” button, refill the hopper, and press the button. 2.16. button followed by FEED AND START REFUELING We recommend that you not let the hopper go completely empty.
PAGE 24
PLEASE READ THIS! a. If you notice a smoldering fire (burnpot full but no visible flame) AND a heavy smoke buildup in firebox, immediately TURN OFF the stove, but DO NOT unplug it. Do not open the door. Make sure that the fresh air damper is open and do not tamper with any controls on the stove. Wait until smoke inside the firebox clears and blowers shut down. Do as instructed in “PRE PRELIGHTHING PROCEDURE”, then attempt to restart the fire.

m. Burning any solid fuels generates carbon monoxide in low concentration. This gas is evacuated by the exhaust venting system. In higher concentrations, carbon monoxide is toxic and may cause death. To prevent this, ensure that your venting system is gastight. n. Use only approved fuels in this stove. Some other fuels may be highly volatile, which may cause more embers to enter the exhaust venting system causing a hazardous situation.
PAGE 26
3. MAINTENANCE FAILURE TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN THIS UNIT AS INDICATED CAN RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY HAZARDS. NEVER CLEAN WHEN HOT. 3.1. CLEANING THE BURN POT The burn pot should be kept clean and its ports should not be clogged with combustion residues. Cleaning the burn pot is simple. To do so, you may use a scraper, a brush or release the clip in front of the burn pot. Then, remove the burn pot by pulling it.
PAGE 27
FIGURE 26 Clean out trap and Pressure tap location 3.3. VENTING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE REGULARLY EXAMINE THE FLUE PIPES, THE JOINTS, AND THE SEALING TRIMS TO ENSURE THAT THE SMOKE AND THE COMBUSTION GASES ARE NOT TRANSPORTED INTO THE AIR DUCTING SYSTEM. The most efficient method to sweep the venting system is by using a 4-inch pellet brush. Brush downwards so ash, soot and creosote residues will come off the inner surface and fall at the bottom of the venting system where they can be removed easily.
PAGE 28
CAUTION: CLEANOUT OF THE HEAT EXCHANGER, FLUE PIPE, AND CHIMNEY, IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT AT THE END OF THE HEATING SEASON TO MINIMIZE CORROSION DURING DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS, CAUSED BY ACCUMULATED ASH. 3.3.2. Soot and Flyash – Formation and need for removal The products of combustion will contain small particles of flyash. The flyash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases.
