START-UP AND OPERATION
A. Filling the Hopper and Start-Up
CAUTION: Fuel hopper lid must be closed before
operating the unit. DO NOT OVERFILL THE
HOPPER! The Parlour will hold approximately 40
pounds of pellets.
Open the top cover and fill the hopper with pellets
(see Figure 10).
Use good-quality pellets that give you a vibrant,
yellow flame with little or no soot. Poor quality
pellets will burn rich with black sooty smoke and
ash will accumulate quickly.
IMPORTANT: The quality of pellet varies from
brand to brand. This will affect the efficiency of
your heater. We suggest that you try several brands
until you find one that provides a clean, efficient burn.
IMPORTANT: The fire pot must be seated flush
and must sit even in the fire pot tray. Air leakage
around the fire pot will create a poor burn (see
Figure 11). Light the pellets in the fire pot using any
approved lighting fluid.
B. Lighting Instructions
The Parlour E.I. has automatic ignition. As a result
you simply plug in the stove, fill with pellets and
push the low, medium or high button on the control
panel. When the button is pushed to low, medium or
high the igniter will come on and in one minute the
feed motor will activate and begin feeding pellets.
In three or four minutes you should see flame and in
six minutes the igniter will shut off. The LED next
to the button will blink during the six-minute start-
up period. During the start-up period the heater will
only run on “Low.” If the fire does not reach
operating temperature during the start up period the
stove will shut down and you will have to repeat the
process.
NOTE: Pellets do not feed in the “Fan” position.
