operation, refer to Figure 7.

The combustion exhaust blower is a variable speed blower

controlled by the heat output button. This blower will decrease

the vacuum pressure inside the stove and as the heat output

button is turned down.

SPECIAL NOTES:
Pellet quality is a major factor in how the Pellet stove will operate.

If the pellets have a high moisture content or ash content the

fire will be less efficient and has a higher possibility of the fire

building up and creating clinkers (hard ash build-up).

clinkers, this would be a sign that the pellet quality

is poor, this requires more primary air, the slider

damper must be pulled out to compensate. Pulling

the slider damper out gives the fire more air.

is achieved is to understand the characteristics of

the fire.

• A tall, lazy flame with dark orange tips requires

more air – Open slider (pull out) slightly.

• A short, brisk flame, like a blowtorch, has too

much air – Close slider (push in) slightly.

• If the flame is in the middle of these two

characteristics with a bright yellow/orange,
