THERMOSTAT OPERATION
Thermostat Operation Details
• The 25-EP was designed to operate equally well in both manual and
thermostat mode. While using the control board for heating control gives
the user control over the heat output of the stove, the thermostat allows the
stove to “start-up” and “shutdown” independently which will help maintain
your house at a more constant temperature and save pellet fuel.
• The 25-EP can be connected to either a wall thermostat (Part # GU-1E30-
914) or wireless remote thermostat (Part # AC-3001). Although either
thermostat will operate the stove properly, we highly recommend the
wireless thermostat for the convenience of starting your pellet stove from
anywhere in the house.
• During thermostatic operation, the stove will burn at whatever heat range
and blower speed the control board has been set to.
• When the call for heat is gone (i.e. the room is up to temperature), the stove
will enter the thermostatic shutdown sequence.
• If, during the shutdown period, the call for heat returns, the stove will
complete the shutdown cycle before relighting.
• Remember to locate the thermostat near the stove in a central location;
putting the thermostat in a distant room can cause the stove to overheat the
room it’s located in because the thermostat will only sense the temperature
of the room in which it is installed.
• Although all heat range and blower speed settings are available in thermostat
mode, the two settings specifically designed for thermostat mode are heat
ranges 3 and 8.
o Heat range 3 is intended for thermostat operation under normal
operating conditions.
o Heat range 8 is ideal for thermostat operation in large or poorly
insulated homes.
