Deciding where to locate your wood pellet burning heater:
1.
Do not install the pellet heater in a bedroom or room where people sleep.
2.
Locate the pellet heater in a large and open room that is centrally located in the house.
This will optimize heat circulation.
3.
Check clearances to combustibles.
