Introduction ELECTRICAL: The use of a surge protected power bar is recommended. The unit must be grounded. The grounded electrical cord should be connected to a standard 120 volts, 60 hertz electrical outlet and also must be accessible. If this power cord should become damaged, a replacement power cord must be purchased from the manufacturer or a qualified ENVIRO dealer. Be careful that the electrical cord is not trapped under the appliance and that it is clear of any hot surfaces or sharp edges.

Installation DECIDING WHERE TO LOCATE YOUR PELLET APPLIANCE: 1. Do not install the stove in a bedroom or room where people sleep in. 2. Locate the stove in a large and open room that is centrally located in the house. This will optimize heat circulation. 3. Check clearances to combustibles and for the least amount of interference to house framing, plumbing, wiring, etc. 4. You can vent the stove with approved pipe through an exterior wall behind the unit or pass it through the ceiling and roof.

Installation CORNER THROUGH WALL INSTALLATION: Fresh Air Intake 3" (7.5 cm) Wall thimble manufactured by pellet vent manufacturer. 3" (7.5 cm) Figure 10: Corner Installation. HORIZONTAL EXHAUST THROUGH WALL INSTALLATION: Vent installation: install vent at clearances specified by the vent manufacturer. A chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed spaces, or a floor, or ceiling.
Installation 10. The pipe must extend at least 12” (30 cm) away from the building. If necessary, bring another length of pipe (PL type) to the outside of the home to connect to the first section. Do not forget to place high temperature silicone around the pipe that passes through the thimble.

Installation INSIDE VERTICAL INSTALLATIONS: 1. Choose a stove location that is ideal. See the section “INSTALLATION - DECIDING WHERE TO LOCATE YOUR PELLET APPLIANCE.” 2. Place the unit on the hearth pad (if installed on a carpeted surface) and space the unit in a manner so when the pellet vent is installed vertically, it will be 3” (76 mm) away from a combustible wall. 3. Locate the center of the fresh air intake pipe on the unit.
Installation OUTSIDE VERTICAL INSTALLATIONS: To accomplish a outside vertical pipe installation, follow steps 1 through 5 in the “INSIDE VERTICAL INSTALLATIONS” section and then finish it by performing the following (refer to Figure 15). 1. Install a tee with clean out on the outside of the house. 2. Install PL vent upward from the tee. Make sure that you install support brackets to keep the vent straight and secure. 3. Install ceiling thimble and secure the flashing as you go through the roof. 4.
Installation HEARTH MOUNT INSTALLATION: Damper Removed or Fastened Open Mantel Minimum 8" (20 cm) from top of stove Clean-out Fresh-air intake should com from chimney. If holes already exist fresh-air intake can be taken through back of the fireplace or through the ash dump. Min 6" (150 mm) Floor Protection Masonry Fireplace Combustible Floor Figure 17: Hearth Mount - Side View.
Installation INSTALLATION WITH EXTERIOR MOUNTED EXHAUST BLOWER: The Empress can be equipped with an externally mounted exhaust blower (PART #20-070). This optional kit will include all components necessary to install the exhaust blower on any external vertical wall surface. Choose a location for your stove that meets the requirements stated in this manual and allows installation with the least amount of interference to house framing, plumbing, wiring, etc.
Installation 9. Connect the wires in the stove. Re-install the left side access cover to the stove and the back grill on the exterior vent housing. 10. Set the Slider Damper as described in the INSTALLATION - SLIDER/DAMPER SETTING“ section. NOTE: Ensure that all vent connections are installed by placing three (3) screws evenly spaced and a small bead of high temperature silicone at each chimney connection.
Installation THROUGH WALL VERTICAL INSTALLATION WITH EXHAUST BLOWER: Refer to INSTALLATION - INSTALLATION WITH EXTERIOR MOUNTED EXHAUST BLOWER and INSTALLATION - OUTSIDE VERTICAL INSTALLATIONS. Ensure that vent pipe is properly secured to wall using wall straps. Maintain clearances to combustibles on vent pipe as well as unit.
Installation THERMOSTAT INSTALLATION: 1. Install the wall thermostat in a location that is not to close too the unit but will effectively heat the desired area. 2. Install a 12 or 24 Volt Thermostat using an 18 x 2 gauge wire from the unit to the thermostat. Remove jumper wire and install thermostat wires here. Figure 23: Thermostat wire placement. If the unit has been placed in the HI / LOW mode, the unit will be taken to a low or idle setting when the thermostat is not calling for heat.
Installation The low burn collar must be set on a hot stove; run the unit on low for 30 minutes, and place a Magnahelic Pressure Gauge in the firebox (test port is located in the center of the stove just below the door opening). Set the slider at 0.11” W.C. (30 Pa) for the firebox vacuum and lock the set collar in place (refer to Figure 23). Some fuels may require higher or lower settings. The combustion exhaust blower is a variable speed blower controlled by the heat output setting.
Troubleshooting DO NOT: ● Service the stove with wet hands. The stove is an electrical appliance, which may pose a shock hazard if handled improperly. Only qualified technicians should deal with possible internal electrical failures. ● Do not remove from the firebox any screws without penetrating oil lubrication. ● Hold the ON / OFF BUTTON down. This is a momentary contact switch and can be damaged if held down too long. WHAT TO DO IF: 1. The stove will not start. 2. The stove will not operate when hot. 3.
Troubleshooting üCheck vacuum levels in the exhaust channel by bypassing the vacuum switch, then remove the vacuum hose from vacuum switch. Check exhaust vacuum readings by placing the open end of the vacuum hose on a Magnahelic Gauge (readings must be above 0.18” to 0.20” W.C. (44.8 to 49.8 Pa) on low fire). If the motor fails to reach a 0.10” W.C. readings, then replace the combustion blower.
Troubleshooting Auger light flashes but auger motor does not turn at all. üIf the auger gear box does not turn but the motor’s armature does try to spin then the auger is jammed. – Try to break apart jam by poking at the jam through the drop tube. If this fails then empty the hopper and remove the auger cover **remember to re-seal the cover after installation** üCheck the fuse on the circuit board. 6. The 200 °F ( 93 °C) high limit temperature sensor has tripped.
