CE APPROVED WOOD PELLET STOVE - HS SERIES

Wood pellets are made from compressed waste wood, with less than 6% moisture. So, they burn cleaner, longer and

provide you more heat. Save money, save trouble, save work - and help save our environment. You only need one

resource to do all that...

Pellet burning appliances are simpler to operate and more convenient than other wood burning appliances. In fact,

they are almost as easy to use as gas, oil, or electric heaters. These stoves and inserts burn wood pellets

compressed wood which resembles rabbit food.

Pellet burning appliances rely on sophisticated computers and circuit boards to determine how much pellet fuel

should be burned. Most models have at least three burn settings and some use thermostats to control the fire. They

also use a forced air system to distribute heat. Pellet burning appliances are highly efficient and pollute very

little. Depending on the model, they may furnish between 6,000 to several million BTU per hour. From a cosy fire in

the family room to a main heat source for commercial, industrial and greenhouse applications.

Because these appliances burn wood so efficiently, some do not even need conventional chimneys. Rather, they use

small diameter, easily installing venting. Pellet burning appliances need to be refueled less frequently than most

other wood burning appliances. Refueling varies from once a day to twice a week, depending on the model and your

heating needs.

To refuel, you simply pour the pellets into a hopper, which holds between 35 and 130 pounds of pellets and they are

transferred to the fire chamber to be burned as needed. A corkscrew shaped device called an auger transfer pellets

to the fire chamber. There are two types of auger feed systems, bottom-fed and top-fed loading systems. Unlike

other wood burning appliances, pellet stoves and inserts rely on mechanical air supply systems (usually a forced

draft or induced draft system) to vent air from the home. the forced draft system uses a fan to force air up the

vent into the combustion chamber. The induced draft system, sometimes called the negative pressure system, uses a

fan to draw air from the combustion area through the exhaust system.

Burning wood pellets with a pellet stove or insert is usually convenient, neat and safe. These devices usually

don''t require refueling more than once a day and the fuel is compressed and bagged for clean and easy storage and

handling. Pellet stoves produce virtually no smoke, and produce less odor than other wood burning appliances.
