PROPER FUEL
ATTENTION:
THIS APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED FOR THE USE OF
PELLETIZED FUEL THAT MEET OR EXCEED THE
STANDARD SET BY THE PELLET FUEL INSTITUTE
(PFI).
Your pellet stove is designed to burn premium
hardwood pellets that comply with the Pellet Fuels
Institute (PFI) standard (minimum of 40 lbs density
per cubic ft, 1/4” to 5/16” diameter, length no greater
than 1.5”, not less than 8,200 BTU/lb, moisture under
8% by weight, ash under 1% by weight, and salt under
300 parts per million). Pellets that are soft, contain
excessive amounts of loose sawdust, have been, or
are wet, will result in reduced performance. Store your
pellets in a dry place. DO NOT store the fuel within
the installation clearances of the unit or within the
space required for refuelling and ash removal. Doing
so could result in a house re. Do not over re or use
volatile fuels or combustibles, doing so may cause a
personal and property damage hazards. THIS STOVE
IS APPROVED FOR BURNING PELLETIZED WOOD
FUEL ONLY ! Factory-approved pellets are those 1/4”
or 5/16” in diameter and not over 1” long. Longer or
thicker pellets sometimes bridge the auger ights,
which prevents proper pellet feed. Burning wood
in forms other than pellets is not permitted. It will
violate the building codes for which the stove has
been approved and will void all warranties. The
design incorporates automatic feed of the pellet
fuel into the re at a carefully prescribed rate. Any
additional fuel introduced by hand will not increase
heat output but may seriously impair the stoves
performance by generating considerable smoke.
Do not burn wet pellets. The stove’s performance
depends heavily on the quality of your pellet fuel.
Avoid pellet brands that display these characteristics:
Excess Fines – “Fines” is a term describing crushed
pellets or loose material that looks like sawdust or
sand. Pellets can be screened before being placed
in hopper to remove most nes.
