VENTING REQUIREMENTS
• Install vent at clearances specied by the vent manufacturer.
• Do not connect the pellet vent to a vent serving any other appliance or stove.
• Do not install a ue damper in the exhaust venting system of this unit.
The following installation guidelines must be followed to ensure conformity with both the safety listing of this stove and to
local building codes. Do not use makeshift methods or compromise in the installation.
MAXIMUM VENTING DISTANCE
Installation MUST include at least 3-feet of vertical pipe outside the home. This will create some natural draft to
reduce the possibility of smoke or odor during appliance shutdown and keep exhaust from causing a nuisance
or hazard by exposing people or shrubs to high temperatures. The maximum recommend vertical venting height
is 12-feet for 3-inch type “PL” vent. Total length of horizontal vent must not exceed 4-feet. This could cause back
pressure. Use no more than 180 degrees of elbows (two 90-degree elbows or two 45-degree elbows and one
90-degree elbow, etc.) to maintain adequate draft.
IMPORTANCE OF PROPER DRAFT
Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your
chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too
much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance. Inadequate draft may cause backpufng into
the room and ‘plugging’ of the chimney. Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to leak smoke into the room
through appliance and chimney connector joints. An uncontrollable burn or excessive temperature indicates
excessive draft. Take into account the chimney’s location to insure it is not too close to neighbors or in a valley
which may cause unhealthy or nuisance conditions.
IMPORTANT! This unit is equipped with a negative draft system that pulls air through the burn pot and pushes the
exhaust out of the dwelling. If this unit is connected to a ue system other than the way explained in this manual, it will
not function properly and will void warranty.

FIGURE 6
VENT TERMINATION CLEARANCES
PELLET VENT TYPE
A UL listed 3-inch or 4-inch type “PL” pellet vent exhaust system must be used for installation and attached to the
pipe connector provided on the back of the stove (use a 3-inch to 4-inch adapter for 4-inch pipe). Connection
at back of stove must be sealed using Hi-Temp RTV. Use 4-inch vent if the vent height is over 12-feet or if the
installation is over 2,500 feet above sea level. We recommend the use of Simpson Dura-Vent® or Metal-Fab®
pipe (if you use other pipe, consult your local building codes and/or building inspectors). Do not use Type-B
Gas Vent pipe or galvanized pipe with this unit. The pellet vent pipe is designed to disassemble for cleaning and
should be checked several times during the burning season. Pellet vent pipe is not furnished with the unit and
must be purchased separately.
PELLET VENT INSTALLATION
The installation must include a clean-out tee to enable collection of y ash and to permit periodic cleaning
of the exhaust system. 90-degree elbows accumulate y ash and soot, thereby reducing exhaust ow and
performance of the stove. Each elbow or tee reduces draft potential by 30% to 50%.
All joints in the vent system must be fastened by at least 3 screws, and all joints must be sealed with Hi-Temp
RTV silicone sealant to be airtight. The area where the vent pipe penetrates to the exterior of the home must
be sealed with silicone or other means to maintain the vapor barrier between the exterior and the interior of the
home. Vent surfaces can get hot enough to cause burns if touched. Noncombustible shielding or guards may
be required.
PELLET VENT TERMINATION
Do not terminate the vent in an enclosed or semi-enclosed area, such as. carport, garage, attic, crawl space,
under a sundeck or porch, narrow walkway, or any other location that can build up a concentration of fumes.
Termination in one of these areas can also lead to unpredictable pressure situations with the appliance; and
could result in improper performance and/or malfunction.
The termination must exhaust above the outside air inlet elevation.
The termination must not be located where it will become plugged by snow or other materials.
Do not terminate the venting into an existing steel or masonry chimney.
-7-
THROUGH THE WALL INSTALLATION
(RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION)
Canadian installations must conform to CAN/CSA-B365.
To vent the unit through the wall, connect the pipe
adapter to the exhaust motor adapter. If the exhaust
adapter is at least 24 in.(609mm) above ground level, a
straight section of pellet vent pipe can be used through
the wall.
Your heater dealer should be able to provide you
with a kit that will handle most of this installation,
which will include a wall thimble that will allow the
proper clearance through a combustible wall. Once
outside the structure, a 3 in.(76mm) clearance should
be maintained from the outside wall and a clean out
tee should be placed on the pipe with a 90-degree
turn away from the house. The Clean out tee must be
placed at the bottom of the vertical section of venting,
NOT in the horizontal section. At this point, a 3ft (0.91m)
(minimum) section of pipe should be added with a
horizontal cap, which would complete the installation
(see FIGURE 7).
A support bracket should be placed just below the
termination cap or one every 4ft (1.22m) to make the
system more stable. If you live in an area that has heavy
snowfall, it is recommended that the installation be
taller than 3ft (0.91m) to get above the snowdrift line.
This same installation can be used if your heater is below ground level by simply adding the clean-out section and
vertical pipe inside until ground level is reached. With this installation you have to be aware of the snowdrift line,
dead grass, and leaves. We recommend a 3ft (0.91m) minimum vertical rise on the inside or outside of the house.
The “through the wall” installation is the least expensive and simplest installation. Never terminate the vent under
a deck, in an alcove, under a window, or between two windows. We recommend Simpson Dura-Vent® or Metal-
Fab® kits.
Through the roof/Ceiling Installation
When venting the heater through the ceiling, the pipe is connected the same as through the wall, except the
clean-out tee is always on the inside of the house, and a 3 in.(76mm) adapter is added before the clean-out tee.
The Clean out tee must be placed at the bottom of the vertical section of venting, NOT in the horizontal section.
You must use the proper ceiling support anges and roof ashing (supplied by the pipe manufacturer; follow the
pipe manufacturer’s directions). It is important to note that if your vertical run of pipe is more than 12ft (3.7m),
the pellet vent pipe size should be increased to 4 in. (102mm) in diameter coming from the back of the stove.
Do not exceed more than 4ft (1.22m) of pipe on a horizontal run and use as few elbows as possible. If an offset
is required, it is better to install 45-degree elbows rather than 90-degree elbows.
OUTSIDE AIR SUPPLY (OPTIONAL, UNLESS INSTALLING IN A MOBILE HOME)
Adequate ventilation air is required to operate this heater. During operation, the heater draws air for combustion
which can be assisted by the installation of outside combustion air inlets. However, certain weather conditions
such as icing or use of kitchen exhaust fans may impact and reduce the effectiveness of vents. It is important to
note that room air starvation will negatively impact the operation of the heater.
Depending on your location and home construction, outside air may be necessary for optimal performance.
Metal pipe (solid or exible) must be used for the outside air installation. PVC pipe is NOT approved and should
NEVER be used.
A wind shield over the termination of the outside air pipe or a 90-degree elbow or bend away from the prevailing
winds MUST be used when an outside air pipe is installed through the side of a building. The outside air termination
MUST be at least 1ft (0.305m) away from the exhaust system termination.
The outside air pipe on your heater is 2” (50.8mm) OD. The outside air connecting pipe must be at least 2”
(50.8mm) ID. The outside air connection used MUST NOT restrict the amount of air available to your heater. The
outside air connecting pipe must be as short and free of bends as possible, and it must t over, not inside, the
outside air connection to the heater.

PANEL CONTROLS
The blowers and automatic fuel supply are controlled from a panel on the side of the unit. The control panel
functions are a follows.
A. ON/OFF SWITCH (“POWER” BUTTON)
• When pushed, the stove will automatically ignite. No other re starter is necessary. The igniter will stay on
for at least 10 and up to 12 minutes, depending on when Proof of Fire is reached. The re should start in
approximately 5 minutes.
• The red light located above the “POWER” button will turn green when pressed and remain green until the
stove is turned off.
• After pushing “POWER”, the auger motor is on for 3.5 minutes, off for 1 minute. During the remainder of the
start-up period, the auger motor operates on the heat range “1” setting.
• During start up the heat level advance (Up and Down keys) will change the heat range indicator level
accordingly, but there is no change in the stoves operating conditions until start-up is completed.
• During start-up ignition must occur within 12 minutes or the stove will error out and show E4.
• During the start-up phase, the Time key does not function.
B. LEVEL / TEMP ARROW BUTTONS
• These buttons when pushed will set the pellet feed rate, hence the heat output or heat range of your stove.
• The levels of heat output will incrementally change on the bar graph starting from heat range “1” to heat
range “5” in manual mode.
C. °C / °F Button
• The °C / °F button changes the two digit display from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit.
D. MODE (M/T) BUTTON
• The Mode of the stove can be switched between manual and controlled with a Thermostat. Separate LEDs to
the left of the two digit display indicate the mode of operation – Manual or T-Stat. The stove has to be in normal
operation to be switched from Manual to T-Stat mode.
• Manual mode operates according to the 5 set levels of feed on the bar graph from heat range “1” to heat
range “5”.
• T-Stat mode works as follows:
• The stove has a built in Thermostat into the controls of the appliance. The temperature sensor for the T-Stat is
located behind the display board.
• Once the stove has gone into run mode the stove can be switch into T-Stat mode.
• The Up and Down Level / Temp Arrow buttons are used to change the desired set-point temperature. Once
the desired temperature is reached the two digit display will ash for four seconds and reset to the actual room
temperature.
• Once the stove reaches within 3°F of the desired temperature set point, it returns to the heat range that the
stove was set on before it was switched to T-Stat mode (if the stove was running on heat range “5” when
switched to T-stat mode when it gets within 3°F of the set point it will return to heat range “5”).
• Once the stove reaches the desired set-point, the stove will drop to heat range “1”.
• When room temperature drops below desired set-point the stove will ramp back up until it reaches the desired
temperature.

BURNS.
This heater is designed to burn only PFI Premium grade pellets. This appliance can also burn pellets rated as
standard after May 16, 2015
DO NOT BURN:
1. Garbage;
2. Lawn clippings or yard waste;
3. Materials containing rubber, including tires;
4. Materials containing plastic;
5. Waste petroleum products, paints or paint thinners,
or asphalt products;
6. Materials containing asbestos;
7. Construction or demolition debris;
8. Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood;
9. Manure or animal remains;
10. Salt water driftwood or other previously salt water
saturated materials;
11. Unseasoned wood; or
12. Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or
particleboard. The prohibition against burning
these materials does not prohibit the use of re
starters made from paper, cardboard, saw dust,
wax and similar substances for the purpose of
starting a re in an affected wood heater.
Burning these materials may result in release of toxic fumes or render the heater ineffective and cause smoke.
PROPER FUEL
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:
1. 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.
2. Binders – Some pellets are produced with materials to hold them together, or “bind” them.
3. High ash content – Poor quality pellets will often create smoke and dirty glass. They will create a need for
more frequent maintenance. You will have to empty the burn pot plus vacuum the entire system more often.
Poor quality pellets could damage the auger. We cannot accept responsibility for damage due to poor
quality pellet.
PRE-START-UP CHECK
Remove burn pot, making sure it is clean and none of the air holes are plugged. Clean the rebox, and then
reinstall burn pot. Clean door glass, if necessary (a dry cloth or paper towel is usually sufcient). Never use abrasive
cleaners on the glass or door. Check fuel in the hopper and rell if necessary.
BUILDING A FIRE
Never use a grate or other means of supporting the fuel. Use only the burn pot supplied with this heater.
Hopper lid must be closed in order for the unit to feed pellets.
During the start-up period:
Make sure burn pot is free of pellets.
1. DO NOT open the viewing door.
2. DO NOT open the damper, the damper needs to be closed during start up.
3. DO NOT add pellets to the burn pot by hand.
NOTE: During the rst few res, your stove will emit an odor as the high temperature paint cures or becomes
seasoned to the metal. Maintaining smaller res will minimize this. Avoid placing items on stove top during this
period because paint could be affected. Animals / People with lung problems should take caution during the rst
few res.Attempts to achieve heat output rates that exceed heater design specications can result in permanent
damage to the heater.
Operation
-11-
THE AUTOMATIC FIRESTARTER
1. Fill hopper and clean burn pot.
2. Press “On/Off” button. Make sure the green light comes on.
3. The damper should be completely closed or open no more than ¼ of the way during start-up. This will vary
depending on your installation and elevation. Once re is established adjust for desired ame increasing the
amount the damper is open as the heat setting is increased. (See “DAMPER CONTROL”)
4. Adjust feed rate to desired setting by pressing “Heat Level Advance” button.
5. If re doesn’t start in 12 minutes, press “On/Off”, wait a few minutes, clear the burn pot, and start procedure
again.
DAMPER CONTROL
The damper control lever is located on the back of the stove on the lower left side. The damper adjusts the
combustion air. This control is necessary due to the varied burn characteristics of individual installations, different
pellet brands, and pellet feed rates. It allows you to improve the efciency of your stove. Providing correct
combustion air will reduce the frequency of cleaning your glass door and prevent the rapid buildup of creosote
inside your stove and chimney. You should adjust the damper based on the re’s appearance. A low, reddish,
dirty re can be improved by turning the damper slightly to the right. A “blow torch” re can be improved by
turning the damper to the left a little bit. As a general rule, on lower feed rate settings, the damper should be
farther to the left closing it off. On higher feed rates, the damper should be open more by having it set more
towards the right. Through trial and error, you will nd the best setting. Consult your dealer if you need help. NOTE:
On heat range “1”, damper should be either completely closed or open no more than a ¼ of the way. If damper
is open to far, it can cause the re to go out.

If the door is opened while the stove is in operation, it must be closed within 30 seconds or the stove will shut
down. If the stove shuts down, push the “On/Off” button to re-start your stove. The stove will have to fully shut
down and turn off before you will be able to restart the stove.
ROOM AIR FAN
When starting your stove, the Room Air Fan will not come on until the stove’s heat exchanger warms up. This
usually takes about 10 minutes from start-up.
IF STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS
The re goes out and the auger motor and blowers will run until the stove cools. This will take 30 minutes or longer
depending on the heat remaining in the appliance. After the stove components stop running all lights on the
display will go out and the two digit display will begin ashing “E3”.
REFUELING
• The hopper and stove top will be hot during operation; therefore, you should always use some type of hand
protection when refueling your stove.
• Never place your hand near the auger while the stove is in operation.
We recommend that you not let the hopper drop below ¼ full.
KEEP HOPPER LID CLOSED AT ALL TIMES EXCEPT WHEN REFILLING. DO NOT OVERFILL HOPPER.
SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE
Turning your stove off is a matter of pressing the “POWER” button on the display board. The green light will turn
back to red when the “POWER” button is pushed. The auger motor will stop, and the blowers will continue to
operate until the internal rebox temperatures have fallen to a preset level.
1. Your stove is equipped with a high temperature thermodisc. This unit has a manual reset thermodisc. This
safety switch has two functions.
A. To recognize an overheat situation in the stove and shut down the fuel feed or auger system.
B. In case of a malfunctioning convection blower, the high-temperature thermodisc will automatically shut
down the auger, preventing the stove from overheating.
NOTE: On some units, once tripped, like a circuit breaker, the reset button will have to be pushed before restarting
your stove. On other units the thermodisc has no reset button and will reset itself once the stove has cooled. The
manufacturer recommends that you call your dealer if this occurs as this may indicate a more serious problem.
A service call may be required.
WARNING: Never shut down this unit by unplugging it from the power source.
-12-
2. If the combustion blower fails, an air pressure switch will automatically shut down the auger.
NOTE: Opening the stove door for more than 30 seconds during operation will cause enough pressure change to
activate the air switch, shutting the fuel feed off. The stove will shut down and show “E2” on the two digit display.
The stove has to fully shut down before restarting.
TAMPER WARNING
This wood heater has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is against federal
regulations to alter this setting or otherwise operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating
instructions in this manual.
• Failure to clean and maintain this unit as indicated can result in poor performance and safety hazards.
• Unplug your stove’s electrical cord prior to removing the back panel or opening the exhaust system for any
inspection, cleaning, or maintenance work.
• Never perform any inspections, cleaning, or maintenance on a hot stove.
• Do not operate stove with broken glass, leakage of ue gas may result.
EXHAUST SYSTEM
Creosote Formation – When any wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine
with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney ue or a
newly started re or from a slow-burning re. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the ue lining. When
ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot re, which may damage the chimney or even destroy the house.
Despite their high efciency, pellet stoves can accumulate creosote under certain conditions.
Fly Ash – This accumulates in the horizontal portion of an exhaust run. Though non-combustible, it may impede
the normal exhaust ow. It should, therefore, be periodically removed.
Inspection and Removal – The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected by a qualied person
annually or per ton of pellets to determine if a creosote or y ash build-up has occurred. If creosote has accumulated,
it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney re. Inspect the system at the stove connection and at the
chimney top. Cooler surfaces tend to build creosote deposits quicker, so it is important to check the chimney
from the top as well as from the bottom. The creosote should be removed with a brush specically designed for
the type of chimney in use. A qualied chimney sweep can perform this service. It is also recommended that
before each heating season the entire system be professionally inspected, cleaned and, if necessary, repaired.
To clean the chimney, disconnect the vent from the stove.
ASH REMOVAL
Remove the ashes periodically to avoid unnecessary ash build up. Ash removal is as follows:
1. Let re burn 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 empty into metal container.
4. Vacuum to remove ashes from the rebox.
5. BE SURE THAT ASHES ARE COOL TO THE TOUCH BEFORE VACUUMING. Some vacuum cleaners may leak ash
into the room. Your vacuum cleaner should have a special lter or bag to eliminate leakage.
6. Remove ash pan and dispose of ashes into metal container.
7. Reinstall ash pan.
8. Reinstall burn pot.
ASH DISPOSAL
Remove ashes when unit has cooled. Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight tting lid. The
closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible oor or on the ground, well away from all
combustible materials, pending nal disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all embers have been thoroughly cooled. The
container shall not be used for other trash or waste disposal. If combined with combustible substances, ashes and
embers may ignite.
Maintenance
-13-
WARNING: FAILURE TO PROPERLY MAINTENANCE THE CLEAN OUTS WILL
RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE OF THIS STOVE.
INTERIOR CHAMBERS
Burn Pot: Periodically remove and clean the burn pot and the area inside the burn pot housing. In particular,
it is advisable to clean out the holes in the burn pot to remove any build up that may prevent air from moving
through the burn pot freely.
Heat Exchanger: There is a clean out plate on both sides of the heat exchanger that needs to be removed to
clean y ash out of the heat exchanger. The cleanouts are located inside the cabinet doors, on the lower front
corners of the heat exchanger. To access these clean outs, you must remove both side panels. The clean outs
are secured to the rebox with (2) 5/16” screws. Remove the clean outs and vacuum out any accumulated
ash. This should be done at least once per month or more frequently if large amounts of ash are noticed while
cleaning or if the stove does not seem to be burning properly
If a vacuum is used to clean your stove, we suggest using a vacuum designed for ash removal. Some regular
vacuum cleaner (i.e. shop vacs) may leak ash into the room.
DO NOT VACUUM HOT ASH!
-14-
SMOKE AND CO MONITORS
Burning wood naturally produces smoke and carbon monoxide(CO) emissions. CO is a poisonous gas when
exposed to elevated concentrations for extended periods of time. While the modern combustion systems in
heaters drastically reduce the amount of CO emitted out the chimney, exposure to the gases in closed or conned
areas can be dangerous. Make sure your stove gaskets and chimney joints are in good working order and sealing
properly to ensure unintended exposure. It is recommended that you use both smoke and CO monitors in areas
having the potential to generate CO.
CHECK AND CLEAN THE HOPPER
Check the hopper periodically to determine if there is any sawdust (nes) that is building up in the feed system
or pellets that are sticking to the hopper surface. Clean as needed.
DOOR AND GLASS GASKETS
Inspect the main door and glass window gaskets periodically. The main door may need to be removed to have
frayed, broken, or compacted gaskets replaced by your authorized dealer. This unit’s door uses a 5/8” diameter
rope gasket.
BLOWER MOTORS
Clean the air holes on the motors of both the exhaust and distribution blowers annually. Remove the exhaust
blower from the exhaust duct and clean out the internal fan blades and housing as part of your fall start-up.
PAINTED SURFACES
Painted surfaces may be wiped down with a damp cloth. If scratches appear or you wish to renew your paint,
contact your authorized dealer to obtain a can of suitable high-temperature paint.
GLASS - CLEANING, REMOVAL, AND REPLACEMENT OF BROKEN DOOR GLASS
Cleaning - We recommend using a high quality glass cleaner. Should a buildup of creosote or carbon accumulate,
you may wish to use 000 steel wool and water to clean the glass. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. DO NOT perform
the cleaning while the glass is HOT. ,
In the event you need to replace the glass, Do not attempt to operate the unit with broken glass. Replacement
glass may be purchased from your U.S. Stove Pellet Burning Room Heater Dealer. If glass is broken, follow these
removal procedures:
Replacement glass must be 0.197” thick tempered ceramic glass with a working service temperature of 1400
deg. F.
1. Remove the four (4) screws and glass retainers.
2. While wearing leather gloves (or any other gloves suitable for handling broken glass), carefully remove any
loose pieces of glass from the door frame. Dispose of all broken glass properly. ONLY high temperature
ceramic glass of the correct size and thickness may be used. DO NOT substitute alternative materials for the
glass. Contact your authorized dealer to obtain this glass.
3. Re-install the new glass by re-attaching the retainers and screws, be careful not to over tighten the screws
for this could damage the glass.
DO NOT abuse the door glass by striking, slamming, or similar trauma. Do not operate the stove with the glass
removed, cracked, or broken.
FALL START UP
Prior to starting the rst re of the heating season, check the outside area around the exhaust and air intake
systems for obstructions. Clean and remove any y ash from the exhaust venting system. Clean any screens on
the exhaust system and on the outside air intake pipe. Turn all of the controls on and make sure that they are
working properly. This is also a good time to give the entire stove a good cleaning throughout.
SPRING SHUTDOWN
After the last burn in the spring, remove any remaining pellets from the hopper and the auger feed system.
Scoop out the pellets and then run the auger until the hopper is empty and pellets stop owing (this can be done
by pressing the “ON” button with the viewing door open). Vacuum out the hopper. Thoroughly clean the burn
pot and rebox. It may be desirable to spray the inside of the cleaned hopper with an aerosol silicone spray if
your stove is in a high humidity area. The exhaust system should be thoroughly cleaned.

IMPORTANT! This wood heater needs periodic inspection and repair for proper operation. It is against federal
regulations to operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual.
When your stove acts out of the ordinary, the rst reaction is to call for help. This guide may save time and money
by enabling you to solve simple problems yourself. Problems encountered are often the result of only ve factors:
1) poor fuel; 2) poor operation or maintenance; 3) poor installation; 4) component failure; 5) factory defect. You
can usually solve those problems related to 1 and 2. Your dealer can solve problems relating to 3, 4 and 5. Refer
to diagrams on page 25 to help locate indicated parts. For the sake of troubleshooting and using this guide to
assist you, you should look at your heat level setting to see which light is ashing.
• Disconnect the power cord before performing any maintenance! NOTE: Turning the ON/OFF Switch to “OFF”
does not disconnect all power to the electrical components of the stove.
• Never try to repair or replace any part of the stove unless instructions for doing so are given in this manual.
All other work should be done by a trained technician.
Trouble Shooting Guide
Display is Flashing “E1”
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. The convection blower is overheating and tripping
the internal temperature shutoff.
Clean any dust off of the windings and fan blade. If oiling the
blower does not help, the blower may be bad.
2. The stove is being left on the highest setting for
extended periods of time.
If operating the heater on the highest heat setting, the room
temperature could increase enough and lead to potential
overheating situations. If this happens, try operating at a lower
heat setting.
3. Fuel other than wood pellets is being burned in the
stove.
This pellet stove is designed and tested to use wood pellets.
Check for signs of fuel other than wood pellets. No other
types of fuel have been approved for this pellet stove. If there
are signs of other types of fuel being used, stop using them
immediately.
4. Power surge or brown out situation.
A power surge, spike, or voltage drop could cause the high
limit switch to trip. Use a surge protector.
5. High Limit Switch is malfunctioning. If the other items check out OK, replace the high limit switch.
Display is Flashing “E2”
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. Airow switch hose or stove attachment pipes for
hose are blocked.
Unhook air hose from the air switch and blow through it.
If air ows freely, the hose and tube are ne. If air will not
ow throw the hose, use a wire coat hanger to clear the
blockage.
2. The air inlet, burnpot, interior combustion air
chambers, combustion blower, or exhaust pipe are
blocked with ash or foreign material.
Follow all cleaning procedures in the maintenance section of
the owner’s manual.
-16-
Display is Flashing “E3”
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. The hopper is out of pellets. Rell the hopper.
2. The air damper is too far open for a low feed setting.
If on the low setting, you may need to close the damper all
the way.
3. The burnpot holes are blocked. Remove the burnpot and thoroughly clean it.
4. The air inlet, the interior chambers, or exhaust system
has a partial blockage.
Follow all cleaning procedures in the maintenance section
of the owner's manual.
5. The hopper safety switch has failed or hopper is open.
When operating the unit, be sure the hopper lid is closed so
that the hopper safety switch will activate. Check the wires
leading from the hopper safety switch to the control panel
and auger motor for secure connections. Use a continuity
tester to test the hopper safety switch; replace if necessary.
6. The auger shaft is jammed.
Start by emptying the hopper. Then remove the auger motor
by removing the auger pin. Remove the two bolts that hold
the auger bracket to the auger tube. The auger bracket will
now be able to be removed from the auger tube. Remove
the two bolts on the side of the auger tube to remove the
lower bearing of the auger. Pull the auger out of the tube to
free the jam. Inspect auger before replacing.
7. The auger motor has failed.
Remove the auger motor from the auger shaft and try to
run the unit. If the motor will turn, the shaft is jammed on
something. If the motor will not turn, the motor is bad.
8. The Proof of Fire (POF) thermodisc has malfunctioned.
Temporarily bypass the POF thermodisc by disconnecting
the two wires and connecting them with a short piece of
wire. Then plug the stove back up. If the stove comes on and
works, you need to replace the POF thermodisc. This is for
testing only. DO NOT LEAVE THE THERMODISC BYPASSED. Your
blowers will never shut off, and if the re went out, the auger
will continue to feed pellets until the hopper is empty with the
POF thermodisc bypassed.
9. The control board is not sending power to the POF
thermodisc or other auger system components.
There should be a 5-volt (approximately) current going to the
POF thermodisc after the stove has been on for 10 minutes.
3. The rebox is not properly sealed.
Make sure the door is closed and that the gasket is in good
shape.
4. Vent pipe is incorrectly installed.
Check to make sure vent pipe installation meets criteria in
owner’s manual.
5. The airow switch wire connections are bad.
Check the connectors that attach the gray wires to the air
switch.
6. Combustion blower failure.
With the stove on, check to see if the combustion blower is
running. If it is not, you will need to check for power going to
the combustion blower. It should be a full current. If there is
power, the blower is bad. If there is not, see #7.
7. Control board not sending power to combustion
blower.
If there is no current going to the combustion blower, check
all wire connections. If all wires are properly connected, you
have a bad control board.
8. Control board not sending power to air switch.
There should be a 5-volt current (approximately) going to the
air switch after the stove has been on for 30 seconds.
9. Air switch has failed.
To test the air switch, you will need to disconnect the air hose
from the body of the stove. With the other end still attached
to the air switch, very gently suck on the loose end of the hose
(you may want to remove the hose entirely off the stove and
the air switch rst and make sure it is clear). If you hear a click,
the air switch is working. BE CAREFUL TOO MUCH VACUUM
CAN DAMAGE THE AIR SWITCH.

Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. The air inlet, burnpot, interior combustion air
chambers, combustion blower, or exhaust pipe are
blocked with ash or foreign material.
Follow all cleaning procedures in the maintenance section
of the owner’s manual.
2. The Proof of Fire (POF) thermodisc has came upluged.
Check the (POF) thermodisc to see if the wires are
connected properly.
3. The Proof of Fire (POF) thermodisc has malfunctioned.
Temporarily bypass the POF thermodisc by disconnecting
the two wires and connecting them with a short piece of
wire. Then plug the stove back up. If the stove comes on and
works, you need to replace the POF thermodisc. This is for
testing only. DO NOT LEAVE THE THERMODISC BYPASSED. Your
blowers will never shut off and if the re went out the auger
will continue to feed pellets until the hopper is empty if you
leave the POF thermodisc bypassed.
4. The hopper is out of Pellets. Rell the hopper.
5. The hopper safety switch has failed or hopper is open.
When operating the unit, be sure the hopper lid is closed so
that the hopper safety switch will activate. Check the wires
leading from the hopper safety switch to the control panel
and auger motor for secure connections. Use a continuity
tester to test the hopper safety switch; replace if necessary.
6. The auger shaft is jammed.
Start by emptying the hopper. Then remove the auger
motor by removing the auger pin. Remove the auger shaft
inspection plate in the hopper so that you can see the
auger shaft. Gently lift the auger shaft straight up so that the
end of the auger shaft comes up out of the bottom auger
bushing. Next, remove the two nuts that hold the top auger
biscuit in. Then rotate the bottom end of the auger shaft up
towards you until you can lift the shaft out of the stove. After
you have removed the shaft, inspect it for bent ights, burrs,
or broken welds. Remove any foreign material that might
have caused the jam. Also, check the auger tube for signs
of damage such as burrs, rough spots, or grooves cut into the
metal that could have caused a jam.
7. The auger motor has failed.
Remove the auger motor from the auger shaft and try to
run the unit. If the motor will turn, the shaft is jammed on
something. If the motor will not turn, the motor is bad.
Display is Flashing “E5”
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. The stove automaticaly ashes "E5" when turned on.
The T-stat sensor has come unplugged from the control board.
Check to see if the sensor is unplugged. If the sensor is not
unplugged, then the sensor is damaged or has a short. If the
sensor is damaged or has a short, it will need to be replaced.
SMOKE SMELL COMING BACK INTO THE HOME
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. There is a leak in the vent pipe system.
Inspect all vent pipe connections. Make sure they are sealed
with RTV silicone that has a temperature rating on 500 degree
F or higher. Also, seal joints with UL-181-AP foil tape. Make
sure the square to round adapter piece on the combustion
blower has been properly sealed with the same RTV.
2. The gasket on the combustion blower has gone bad.
Inspect both gaskets on the combustion blower to make sure
they are in good shape. Replace if damaged.
Because it is a wood-burning device, your pellet heater may emit a faint wood-burning odor. If this increases beyond
normal, or if you notice an unusual soot build-up on walls or furniture, check your exhaust system carefully for leaks. All
joints should be properly sealed. Also clean your stove, following instructions in “MAINTENANCE”. If problem persists,
contact your dealer.
-18-
STOVE FEEDS PELLETS, BUT WILL NOT IGNITE
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. Air damper open too far for ignition.
Push the air damper left for startup. In some situations it may
be necessary to have the damper completely closed for
ignition to take place. After there is a ame, the damper can
then be adjusted for the desired feed setting.
2. Blockage in igniter tube or inlet for igniter tube.
Find the igniter housing on the backside of the rewall. The
air intake hole is a small hole located on bottom side of the
housing. Make sure it is clear. Also, look from the front of the
stove to make sure there is not any debris around the igniter
element inside of the igniter housing.
3. The burnpot is not pushed completely to the rear of
the rebox.
Make sure that the air intake collar on the burnpot is touching
the rear wall of the rebox.
4. Bad igniter element.
Put power directly to the igniter element. Watch the tip of
the igniter from the front of the stove. After about 2 minutes
the tip should glow. If it does not, the element is bad.
5. The control board is not sending power to the igniter.
Check the voltage going to the igniter during startup. It
should be a full current. If the voltage is lower than full
current, check the wiring. If the wiring checks out good, the
board is bad.
STOVE WILL NOT FEED PELLETS, BUT FUEL FEED LIGHT COMES ON AS DESIGNED
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. High limit switch has tripped or is defective.
Wait for the stove to cool for about 30 - 45 minutes. Locate
the High Limit thermodisc and press the reset button on the
back of it. If the heater will not restart, check the thermodisc
to see if it’s bad. To test if the thermodisc is bad, you can
bypass it as described previously for the POF thermodisc.
2. Bad Auger Motor.
Remove the auger motor from the auger shaft and try to
run the unit. If the motor will turn, the shaft is jammed on
something. If the motor will not turn, the motor is bad.
3. Auger Jam.
Start by emptying the hopper. Then remove the auger
motor by removing the auger pin. Remove the auger shaft
inspection plate in the hopper so that you can see the auger
shaft. Gently lift the auger shaft straight up so that the end of
the auger shaft comes up out of the bottom auger bushing.
Next, remove the two nuts that hold the top auger biscuit in.
Then rotate the bottom end of the auger shaft up towards
you until you can lift the shaft out of the stove. After you have
removed the shaft, inspect it for bent ights, burrs, or broken
welds. Remove any foreign material that might have caused
the jam. Also, check the auger tube for signs of damage
such as burrs, rough spots, or grooves cut into the metal that
could have caused a jam.
4. Loose wire or connector.
Check all wires and connectors that connector to the auger
motor, high limit switch, and the Molex connector.
5. Bad control board.
If the fuse is good, the wires and connectors check out good,
and the high limit switch did not trip, test for power going
to the auger motor. If there is not a full current going to the
auger motor when the fuel feed light is on, you have a bad
control board.
CONVECTION BLOWER SHUTS OFF AND COMES BACK ON
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. The convection blower is overheating and tripping
the internal temperature shutoff.
Clean any dust off of the windings and fan blades. If
cleaning the blower does not help, the blower may be bad.
2. Circuit board malfunction.
Test the current going to the convection blower. If there is
power being sent to the blower when it is shut off, then the
control board is ne. If there is NOT power being sent to the
blower when it shuts off during operation, then you have a
bad control board.

temperature could increase enough and lead to potential
overheating situations. If this happens, try operating at a
lower heat setting.
3. Fuel other than wood pellets is being burned in the
stove.
This pellet stove is designed and tested to use wood pellets.
Check for signs of fuel other than wood pellets. No other
types of fuel have been approved for this pellet stove. If
there are signs of other types of fuel being used, stop using
them immediately.
4. Power surge or brown out situation.
A power surge, spike, or voltage drop could cause the high
limit switch to trip. Use a surge protector.
5. High limit switch is malfunctioning. If the other items check out OK, replace the high limit switch.
• GLASS “SOOT’S” UP AT A VERY FAST RATE
• FLAME IS LAZY, DARK, AND HAS BLACK TIPS
• AFTER STOVE HAS BEEN ON FOR A WHILE, THE BURNPOT OVERFILLS
Possible Causes Possible Remedies: (Unplug stove rst when possible)
1. Stove or vent pipe is dirty, which restricts airow
through the burnpot.
Follow all cleaning procedure in the maintenance section of
the owner’s manual.
2. Vent pipe installed improperly. Check to make sure the vent pipe has been installed
according to the criteria in the owner’s manual.
3. Air damper is set too far left (closed) for a higher
setting.
Pull the damper knob to the right and try to burn the unit
again.
4. Burnpot holes are blocked. Remove the burnpot and thoroughly clean it.
5. Air damper is broken. Visually inspect the damper assembly. Make sure the damper
plate is attached to the damper rod. When the damper rod
is moved, the plate should move with it.
6. Blockage in air intake pipe. Visually inspect the air intake pipe that leads into the burnpot
for foreign material.
7. Combustion blower is not spinning fast enough. Test the RPM on the blower after the blades have been
cleaned. The RPM should be approximately 3000 RPM.
8. Bad Pellets (Applies to GLASS “SOOT’S” UP AT A VERY
FAST RATE Only)
The brand of pellets or the batch of pellets that are being
used may be of poor quality. If possible, try a different brand
of pellets. You might also want to try a brand that is made
from a different type of wood (softwood vs. hardwood).
Different woods have different characteristics when being
burned.
