1 Introduction

1.1 About Pellet Heating

Pellet stoves offer a dramatic improvement in the convenience of heating with solid fuel. Wood pellets are handled in bags and are therefore easily and cleanly stored. A single loading of a pellet stove can provide long hours of warmth. Pellet stoves also provide a special comfort associated with wood burning. The combination of fans delivering warm air currents and the direct comfort of radiant heat provides special satisfaction on a cold winter day. The heat provided is even and constant, due to the auto fuel feed responding to owner settings. Pellet stoves also offer strong environmental benefits; pellets not only reduce dependence on finite supplies of fossil fuels like oil and gas, but they also put to good use materials that would otherwise unnecessarily and expensively add to our waste disposal problems.

In addition, pellet stoves burn very cleanly and offer the lowest emissions of unwanted pollutants of all solid fuel burning appliances.

1.1.1 Top 10 Reasons for Buying a DC Pellet Stove

1) Works during power breakdown due to an optional battery system (see Appendix C:

Battery Holder kit (AC01452) and Optional 24V (2X 12V) battery kit (AC01454)).

2) Fuel is relatively cheap, easy to handle and store.

3) Installation is relatively inexpensive and flexible.

4) Can be thermostatically controlled.

5) Can run for long hours without the need to refuel.

6) Heat output is steady because fuel feed is regulated.

7) Provides powerful convection heat.

8) Has the lowest emissions of all solid fuels.

9) Reduces our dependence on fossil fuels.

10) Wood pellets are made of 100% residual matter (saw dust) and are a renewable fuel. This creates added-value from waste that would otherwise end up in a landfill.

4 Venting System

4.1 General

Even though the chimney draft is mechanical, a suitable venting system will ensure a natural draft which will prevent smoke spillage in your home if a power outage occurs. Moreover, a suitable venting system configuration will help getting the best efficiency out of your stove when installed in accordance with the required EVL (see Section 4.3 Equivalent Vent Length (EVL)).

Even the best stove will not function safely and efficiently as intended if it is not connected to a suitable venting system.

4.2 Recommendations

In Canada, we recommend that you use a listed pellet vent that meets the CAN/ULC S609 or ULC/ORD C441 Standard. A pellet vent listed to ULC S629M is also suitable for installation with this stove.

For the United States, we recommend that you use a listed pellet vent that meets the UL 641 Standard. A pellet vent listed to UL 103 is also suitable for installation with this stove.

This stove can be vented in an existing factory-built or masonry chimney with the addition of a stainless steel liner, provided the chimney is more than 4” in diameter. The liner should be listed and should meet the ULC S635 or CAN/ULC S640 standard in Canada and the UL 1777 standard in the USA. Refer to the instructions provided by the vent manufacturer, especially when passing through a wall, ceiling or roof.

Edison Installation and Operation Manual

4.3 Equivalent Vent Length (EVL)

Recommended venting system inner pipe diameter is 3”. Use a 4” pipe if you have more than 15 feet of Equivalent Vent Length (EVL).

To calculate the EVL of your installation, use the following conversions:

Qty

Type of pipe EVL equivalent(ft)

1 90° elbow or “T” 5

1 45° elbow 3 1 ft Horizontal pipe run 1 1 ft

Vertical pipe run 0.5

NOTE: Horizontal runs shall not exceed 9 feet. NOTE: Never exceed 30 feet of EVL.

Here is an example to help you calculate Equivalent Vent Length. On the following figure the EVL can be calculated like this:

• 2 horizontal run of 1’ = (2 X 1’) X 1’ = 2’ of EVL

• 1 elbow 90° or "Tee" = 5’ of EVL

• 3 vertical length of 4’ = (3 X 4’) X 0.5’ = 6’ of EVL

• Total EVL = (2’ + 5’ + 6’) = 13’.

NOTE: Do not include the exterior wall termination in the EVL calculation (45° elbow and termination).

Edison Installation and Operation Manual

For example, let’s imagine an installation consisting of a horizontal vent coming out at the back of the stove on a total distance of 8 feet. This horizontal run is followed by a tee and a 6-foot vertical rise. This type of installation is not acceptable. As you can see, the vent termination is clearly outside the allowed configuration zone on the chart because the venting system proposed does not have at least one foot of vertical rise for each foot of horizontal run.

Instead, if the installation consisted of a horizontal vent coming out at the back of the stove on a total distance of 4 feet, followed by a tee and a 6-foot vertical rise, it would be acceptable. The installation end should be within the allowable configuration zone on the chart since it would have at least one foot of vertical rise for each foot of horizontal run. Furthermore, the total vertical rise would be at least 3-foot high.

O.K.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of smoke spillage there should always be at least one foot of vertical rise for each foot of horizontal run. In all cases, at least 3 feet of vertical rise is needed.

4.4 Termination Location

Termination should not be located so that hot exhaust gases can be a hazard. They can reach temperatures of 500°F (260°C) and cause serious burns.

CAUTION: TERMINATION COLLAR (SPARK ARRESTER) IS MANDATORY.

5.1.2 Zone Heating and How to Make It Work for You

Your new pellet stove is a space heater, which means it is intended to heat the area it is installed in, as well as spaces that connect to that area, although to a lower temperature. This is called zone heating and it is an increasingly popular way to heat homes or spaces within homes.

Zone heating can be used to supplement another heating system by heating a particular space within a home, such as a basement family room or an addition that lacks another heat source.

Although the stove may be able to heat the main living areas of your house to an adequate temperature, this stove must serve as a supplementary heat source. You should have a conventional oil, gas or electric additional heating system to provide heating in the home. The manufacturer cannot be responsible for additional heating costs associated with the use of an alternative heat source in case of stove failure or power outage.

Your success with zone heating will depend on several factors: Proper stove size, stove location, heating area, house layout, insulation and your climate zone.

5.2 Combustible

5.2.1 Proper Fuel

Each type of pellet has its properties and will burn differently. The amount of ashes produced can also vary greatly. Conventional pellets are those ¼” or 5/16” in diameter and

not over 1” long. Longer or thicker pellets will prevent proper pellet feed.

For example, if the pellets are very short, they will have more ease to accumulate and pile into the feed screws. Thus, the volume of pellets will be denser, which will lead to an increase in BTU. By contrast, longer pellets will pile less so the BTU will be reduced.

The bottom-feed system of this stove is designed and tested specifically for use with wood pellets.

WARNING: BURNING OTHER TYPES OF PELLETS IS PROHIBITED. IT VIOLATES THE BUILDING CODES FOR WHICH THE STOVE HAS BEEN APPROVED AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY
