Read this entire manual before you install and use your Pellet heater. Failure to follow instructions may result in property damage,
bodily injury, or even death!
Before installing your heater, you must perform an initial burn in an OUTSIDE environment. Follow the Start-Up Procedure in
the Operation section of this manual.
Your Eco-Aire heater may be installed to code in either a conventional or mobile home (see SPECIAL MOBILE HOME
REQUIREMENTS).
It is recommended that only a authorized technician install your heater, preferably a National Fireplace Institute (NFI) certified specialist.
This heater must be installed through an opening on an exterior wall. The heater may be installed in an existing window or opening
cut through a wooden, brick, or masonry wall.
Once the desired location is selected, and before cutting a hole, check the outside of the structure for anything obstructing clearances
to the exhaust vent. Also clear away leaves, shrubs/bushes, or trees that may be around the exhaust outlet.
IMPROPER INSTALLATION: The manufacturer will not be held responsible for damage caused by the malfunction of a heater
due to improper venting or installation. Call (800) 750-2723 and/or consult a professional installer if you have any questions.
FLOOR PROTECTION
This heater must have a non-combustible floor protector (ember
protection) installed beneath it if the floor is of combustible material.
