PARLOUR PELLET E.I.
PELLET HEATER
5
GENERAL INFORMATION
Installation and repair should be done by a qualified
service person. The heater should be inspected
before use and at least annually by a professional
service person. More frequent cleaning may be
required due to fuel quality, excessive lint from
carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is imperative that
control compartments, burners, and circulating air
passageways of the heater be kept clean.
The Parlour Pellet E.I. Heater has been designed
and approved for burning wood pellet fuel only.
Burning solid fuel in other forms is not permitted
and will void all warranties.
Store fuel in a covered, dry area. Pellet fuel bags
can absorb moisture and must be kept dry. Never
place fuel bags next to heater. Keep fuel outside of
stove clearances to combustible materials.
This unit has been approved for use with a 3" and
4” Type L Pellet Vent System. On runs in excess
of 10' and installations per Figure 9, the 4” pipe
must be used.
NEVER use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuels,
kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to
start or "freshen up" a fire. Keep all such liquids
well away from the heater while it is in use.
Ashes must be disposed of in a metal container with
a tight-fitting lid and placed on a non-combustible
floor or ground, well away from all fuels, pending
final disposal.
NOTE: During the first few burns the high-
temperature paint and sealant used in manufacture
will emit some odor and smoke. Open doors and
windows to the outside for proper ventilation during
the first burn cycle and curing of the paint.
This heater, when installed, must be electrically
grounded according to local codes or, in the absence
of local codes, with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-1987.
Provide adequate clearances around air openings
into the combustion chamber and adequate
accessibility clearance for servicing and proper
operation. Never obstruct the front opening of the
heater.
The heater may be installed as a free-standing unit
mounted on a non-combustible protective floor pad
or hearth. Or it may be mounted into an existing
UL-approved wood stove chimney. Non-
combustible floor protection is required and must be
used when placing the heater on any combustible
material.
All outside air hook-ups for mobile or modular
homes require Thelin Co.'s outside air kit — NO
EXCEPTIONS!
CAUTION: Do not connect this unit to a chimney
flue serving another appliance.
