C. Combustible Materials
Material made of/or surfaced with any of the following
materials:
B. Non-Combustible Materials
Material which will not ignite and burn, composed of any
combination of the following:
A. Fire Safety
To provide reasonable re safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
• Install at least one smoke detector on each oor of
your home.
• Install at least one carbon monoxide detector on each
oor of your home.
• Locate smoke detector away from the heating
appliance and close to the sleeping areas.
• Follow the smoke detector manufacturer’s placement
and installation instructions and maintain regularly.
• Follow the carbon monoxide manufacturer’s placement
and installation instructions and maintain regularly.
• Conveniently locate a Class A re extinguisher to
contend with small res.
• In the event of a hopper re:
- Evacuate the house immediately.
- Notify re department.
Fuel Material
• Made from sawdust or wood by-products
• Depending on the source material it may have a high or
low ash content.
Higher Ash Content Material
• Hardwoods with a high mineral content
• Fuel that contains bark
• Standard grade pellets or high ash pellets
Lower Ash Content Material
• Most softwoods
• Fuels with low mineral content
• Most premium grade pellets
Clinkers
Minerals and other non-combustible materials such as sand
will turn into a hard, glass-like substance called a clinker
when heated in the re pot.
Trees from dierent areas will vary in mineral content. That
is why some fuels produce more clinkers than others.
Moisture
Always burn dry fuel. Burning fuel with high moisture
content takes heat from the fuel and tends to cool the
appliance, robbing heat from your home. Damp pellet fuel
can clog the feed system.
Size
• Pellets are either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch (6-8mm) in
diameter
• Length should be no more that 1-1/2 inches (38mm)
• Pellet lengths can vary from lot to lot from the same
manufacturer
• Due to length variations, the feed rate may need
adjusting occasionally
Performance
• Higher ash content requires the re pot and the ash
drawer to be emptied more frequently
• Hardwoods require more air to burn properly
• Premium wood pellets produce the highest heat output
• Burning pellets longer than 1-1/2 inches (38mm) can
cause an inconsistent fuel feed rate and/or missed
ignitions or feed jams.
Storage
• Wood pellets should be left in their original sealed bag
until using to prevent moisture absorption
• Do not store any pellet fuel within the clearance
requirements or in an area that would hinder routine
cleaning and maintenance
Fire Risk.
• Do not operate appliance before reading
and understanding operating instructions.
• Failure to operate appliance properly may
cause a house re.
WARNING
• Steel
• Plaster
• Glass
• Tile
• Brick
• Iron
• Slate
• Concrete
Materials reported as passing ASTM E 136, Standard
Test Method for Behavior of Metals, in a Vertical Tube
Furnace of 750° C.

• Wood
• Plywood/OSB
• Sheet Rock (drywall)
• Plastic
• Plant Fibers
Any material that can ignite and burn: ame proofed or
not, plastered or non-plastered.
D. Fuel Material and Fuel Storage
Pellet fuel quality can greatly uctuate. We recommend that
you buy fuel in multi-ton lots whenever possible. However,
we do recommend trying various brands before purchasing
multi-ton lots to ensure your satisfaction.
