INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the ECO-35 pellet stove. You are now prepared to burn wood in the most
efficient, convenient way possible. To achieve the safest, most efficient and most enjoyable
performance from your stove, you must do three things: 1) Install it properly; 2) Operate it correctly;
and 3) Maintain it regularly. The purpose of this manual is to help you do all three.
PLEASE read this entire manual before installation and use of this pellet fuel-burning room
heater. Failure to follow these instructions could result in property damage, bodily injury or
even death.
Keep this manual handy for future reference.
Your ECO-35 has been independently tested to ASTM E1509-04 Standard Specification for room
heaters, pellet fuel burning type 1, UL 2482-1998 and ULC-S627-00 Standard for Solid Fuel Room
Heaters, Oregon Administrative Rules for Mobile Homes (814-23-900 through 814-23-909) and
Installation as a Stove Heater. This pellet stove, when installed, must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70 and
CSA-C22.1.
This appliance is designed specifically for use only with pelletized wood. It is designed for residential
installation according to current national and local building codes as a freestanding room heater. It is
also approved as a mobile home heater which is designed for connection to an outside combustion air
source.
The stove will not operate using natural draft or without a power source for the blower systems and
fuel feed system and must not be burned with any type of coal.
This stove is designed to provide the optimum proportions of fuel and air to the fire in order to burn
free of smoke and soot. Any blockage of the air supply to or from the stove will seriously degrade its
performance and will be evidenced by a smoking exhaust and a sooting window. For best operation,
the ash content of the pellet fuel should be less than 1% and the calorific value approximately 8,200
BTU/LB. Avoid high ash content fuels because this will rapidly fill up the burn pot and eventually cut
off the combustion air supply.
Commercial and industrial installations of the ECO-35 should not be used since operational control is
often not well managed in these settings
