Please read this entire Owner’s Manual before installing or operating your ENVIRO Pellet

Stove. Failure to follow these instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury

or even death. Contact your local building or fire official to obtain a permit and any information on

installation restrictions and inspection requirements for your area.
To prevent the possibility of a fire, ensure that the appliance is properly installed by adhering to the

installation instructions. An ENVIRO dealer will be happy to assist you in obtaining information with

regards to your local building codes and installation restrictions.
Be sure to maintain the structural integrity of the home when passing a vent through walls, ceilings, or

roofs.
The stove’s exhaust system works with negative combustion chamber pressure and a slightly positive

chimney pressure. It is very important to ensure that the exhaust system be sealed and airtight. The ash

pan and viewing door must be locked securely for proper and safe operation of the pellet stove.
Do not burn with insufficient combustion air. A periodic check is recommended to ensure proper

combustion air is admitted to the combustion chamber. Setting the proper combustion air is achieved by

adjusting the slider damper located on the left side of the stove.
When installing the stove in a mobile home, it must be electrically grounded to the steel chassis of the

home and bolted to the floor. Make sure that the structural integrity of the home is maintained and all

construction meets local building codes.
Minor soot or creosote may accumulate when the stove is operated under incorrect conditions such as an

extremely rich burn (black tipped, lazy orange flames).
If you have any questions with regard to your stove or the above-mentioned information, please feel free

to contact your local dealer for further clarification and comments.

FUEL: This pellet stove is designed and approved to only burn wood pellet fuel with up to 3% ash

content. Dirty fuel will adversely affect the operation and performance of the unit and may void the

warranty. Check with your dealer for fuel recommendations.

THE USE OF CORDWOOD IS PROHIBITED BY LAW.

SOOT: Operation of the stove with insufficient combustion air will result in the formation of soot which

will collect on the glass, the heat exchanger, the exhaust vent system, and may stain the outside of the

house. This is a dangerous situation and is inefficient. Frequently check your stove and adjust the slider/

damper as needed to ensure proper combustion. See: “S

”.

CLEANING: There will be some build up of fly ash and small amounts of creosote in the exhaust. This

will vary due to the ash content of the fuel used and the operation of the stove. It is advisable to inspect

and clean the exhaust vent semi-annually or every two tons of pellets.
