MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION Mobile home installation should be done in accordance with the Manufactured Home and Safety Standard (HUD), CFR 3280, Part 24. Canadian installations require that the heater must be connected to a 3 or 4 inch, factory-built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-S629. See the installation illustrations in this manual for minimum height above the roof. U.S. Stove suggests the use of Selkirk’s Pellet Venting Products.

MAINTENANCE FAILURE TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN THIS UNIT AS INDICATED MAY RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE AND HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS. CLEAN THE HEATER FREQUENTLY AS ACCUMULATION OF SOOT, CREOSOTE OR FLYASH MAY OCCUR. NEVER CLEAN THE UNIT WHEN HOT. Burn Pot: Note: Let the unit cool to room temperature before inspecting the burn pot. Inspect the burn pot regularly to check that the holes have not become plugged. If necessary clean thoroughly.
MAINTENANCE - continued Ash Removal - Freestanding Unit: Remove the ashes periodically to avoid unnecessary ash build up. Ash removal is as follows: 1. Let fire run out and allow unit cool to room temperature 2. Clean the heat exchanger tubes (see Heat Exchanger Cleaning section) – Make sure Pellet Stove is at room temperature before touching 3. Open the ash pan door, remove the burn pot and burn pot liner and empty into metal container 4. Vacuum to remove ashes from the firebox.
MAINTENANCE - continued Cleaning Heat Exchanger Tubes – Your Pellet Stove Room Heater is designed with a built in heat exchanger tube cleaner. This should be used every 2 or 3 days to remove ash build up on the heat exchanger tubes, which can reduce heat transfer. The handle, for the heat exchanger tube cleaner, is located in front of the vent tubes on front side of heater. Slide the rod front to back several times to clean the tubes then follow the instructions for ash removal.
MAINTENANCE - continued Chimney/Vent System Cleaning: 1. Soot/Creosote Formation – When wood products are burned slowly, they produce tar and other organic vapors which combine with expelled moisture to form soot. The soot vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue, as a result, soot/creosote residue accumulates on the chimney lining. When ignited, soot/creosote makes an extremely hot fire which can damage the chimney or cause a house fire.
TROUBLE SHOOTING See figure 26, page 31, for component locations. The heater will not light. • Check that the heater is plugged in and that the wall outlet has power. • Unplug the unit then check all electrical connections against the Wiring Diagram in this manual. • Check the fuse on the circuit board. • If a thermostat is used, ensure it is calling for heat. • If your heater still does not light, contact your local dealer for service. The heater will not operate when hot.
TROUBLE SHOOTING - continued The 200o F High-limit switch has tripped. • Reset the switch and determine the cause. It is normally a faulty circulation fan. If the circulation fan does not operate, apply 120 volts directly to the circulation fan. If it still does not operate, replace the circulation fan. Heater will not shut off.
