FUEL CONSIDERATIONS
Your pellet stove is designed to burn premium hardwood pellets that comply with The Pellet Fuel Institute (PFI)
standards (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 refueling and ash removal. Doing so could result in a house fire. Do not over fire
or use volatile fuels or combustibles, doing so may cause a personal and property damage hazards.

wood heater. This heater meets the 2020 US Environmental Protection Agency’s wood pellet emissions limits for
wood heaters sold after May 15, 2020. Under specific test conditions this heater has been shown to deliver heat
at rates ranging from 9,218 to 18,619 Btu/hr. This heater achieved a particulate emissions rate of 0.85 g/hr and an
