IMPORTANT INFORMATION
1.
Check local installation codes for your area. Call your Homeowner’s Insurance representative for
inspection of your stove’s installation.
2.
Read and comply with the instructions in this manual.
3.
This unit should be tested (dry run) before loading pellets for 20 minutes. The stove should
automatically shut itself off after the 20-minute dry run.
4.
Your stove is designed to burn Wood Pellets only.
Burning pea coal, cherry pits, or anything
other than wood pellets will void your warranty. Pellets with high ash content will burn dirty and
require the unit to be cleaned more often. This unit is designed for use with ¼” diameter pellet
fuel. Using pellets longer than 2” can bind the auger and require frequent manual removal.
5.
Be sure your pellets are not damp or wet. Keep sawdust out of the unit.
6.
Use three-inch (3”) U.L.-approved (ULC if Canada) PELLET VENT TWIST-LOCK PIPE when
installing this stove and follow the manufacturer’s specifications for installation and clearances
(we highly recommend Dura-Vent pellet twist-lock pipe) (
AC-3000 kit, AC-33000 if Canada
). For
installations over 4000 ft. above sea level the exhaust should be vented with 4"pellet vent pipe
(
AC-3100 kit, AC-33100 if Canada
). Even though this pipe interlocks, it is a good idea to seal all
connections with high temperature silicone (
AC-RTV3
). Use at least three screws to secure the
pipe to this unit’s exhaust blower. Also, if you do not use U.L.-approved twist-lock pellet pipe, be
sure to use U.L.-approved Pellet Vent pipe, and fasten each joint of the pipe with at least three
screws (ULC-approved if Canada).
Outside combustion air is mandatory for these units to work properly. Make this connection using a 1

metal pipe (steel, aluminum or copper) and coupler. Be sure to secure the pipe to the unit with a clamp or
aluminum tape. The outside end should be covered (screened) to prevent any foreign matter from entering
the system. Try to keep the number of bends in this pipe to a minimum. Our Part Number PU-OAK (Outside
Air Kit with flex pipe) can be used.
NOTE:
If an older unit, measure the opening to determine what size pipe to use.
NOTE:
If the total run of the intake air connection exceeds 6’, use 3” metal pipe and coupler instead.
7.
Regularly inspect the burn pot area and, if any crust forms, remove it with a poker.
8.
The ash in the burn pot should be removed regularly, depending on your burn rate. The area to
the right and left of the burn pot is for ash storage; keep the air holes in the burn pot clean for a
more efficient burn. Check your exhaust system frequently. Refer to “Ash Removal and
Disposal” section.
9.
Keep pellets and all other combustible materials a safe distance from the unit.
10.
This unit will require floor protection if installed on a combustible surface. The minimum floor
protector should give at least one inch (1”) of protection at the rear, four inches (4”) on each side,
and six inches (6”) minimum in the front of the unit.
11.
Horizontal runs should not exceed four feet (4’) with a maximum vertical flue height of thirty five
feet (35’). At fifteen feet (15’), the pipe should be increased to four inch (4”) pellet vent pipe.
12.
This unit should be turned off and allowed to cool prior to cleaning. Any ashes should be kept in
an airtight metal container and not disposed of until they are completely cooled.
13.
Read the instructions thoroughly, including instructions concerning the digital control board, and
save them for future reference.
