Fire Risk.
WARNING
• High ash fuels, or lack of maintenance, can
cause the firepot to overfill. Follow proper
shutdown procedure if ash buildup exceeds
half way point in firepot.
• Failure to do so could result in smoking,
sooting and possible hopper fires.
D. High Ash Fuel Content Maintenance
• Frequency: When the ash build-up exceeds more
than half way up the repot.
• By: Homeowner
Poor quality pellet fuel, or lack of maintenance, can create
conditions that make the repot ll quickly with ashes and
clinkers.
This condition makes the appliance susceptible to overll-
ing the repot with pellets which may result in smoking,
sooting and possible hopper res. Figure 37.1 shows an
example where the repot overlls, pellets back up into the
feed tube and ash has accumulated in the rebox.
An inefcient and non-economical method of burning of
fuel caused by poor quality pellet fuel is shown in Figure
37.2.
The correct ame size when good quality, premium pellet
fuel is burned is shown in Figure 37.3.
If the ash buildup exceeds the half way point in the repot
IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND CLEANING IS REQUIRED.
