INTRODUCTION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------ 2 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ------------------------------------------------------------------.
SPECIFICATIONS Width: 25 ¼” Height: 29 ½” Depth: 24 ¼” Weight: 340 lbs. Flue size: 3” or 4” Hopper Capacity: Up to 40 lbs. (this can vary widely depending on pellet size, length, and diameter) EPA status: exempt Burn time: 1 lb. to 4 ½ lbs.
COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY For a mobile home installation the stove must be connected to an outside source of combustion air. A 2” inside diameter metallic pipe, either flexible or rigid, may be attached to the inlet at the stove’s rear (refer to figure 4).
Equivalent Vent Length (EVL) The longer the run of pipe in your installation (both with inserts and freestandings), the more restriction there is in the system. Therefore, larger diameter pipe should be used. • Use 4” pipe if you have more than 15 feet of equi valent vent length.
B. VERTICALLY WITH NEW CHIMNEY SYSTEM (Refer to Figure 7) NOTE: See “ VENTING ” and follow L-Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions. OPTION: To ac hieve a center vertical installation a 45º elbow and a clean-out tee can be used to offset the pipe from the exhaust outlet to the rear center of the stove.
D. VERTICALLY INTO EXISTING MASONRY FIREPLACE NOTE: See “ VENTING ” and follow L-Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions. 1. Have the masonry chimney inspected by a qualified chimney sweep or installer to determine its structural condition. 2. You will need a pipe length equal to the chimney height from the hearth.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION This stove is provided with a 6-foot grounded electrical cord extending from the rear of the stove. We recommend connecting to a good quality surge protector that is plugged into a standard three-prong, 120V, 60hz electrical outlet.
PANEL CONTROLS (See Figure 12) The blowers and automatic fuel supply are controll ed from a panel o n the left-hand si de of the P4000. The control panel functions are as follows. a. ON/OFF SWITCH • When pushed the stove will automatically ignite. No other firestarter is necessary.
PROPER FUEL THIS STOVE IS APPROVED FOR BURNIN G PELLETIZED WOOD FUEL ONLY ! Factory-approved pellets are those ¼” or 5/16” in diameter and not over 1” long. Longer or thicker pellets some times bridge the auger flights, which prevents proper pellet feed.
RE-STARTING A WARM STOVE If the stove has been shut off, and you want to re-start it while it is still warm, the “on/off” button must be held do wn for 2 seconds. IF STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS The fire goes out and the auger motor and blo wers will run unt il the stove cools.
OPTIONAL THERMOSTA T A thermostat may help you maintain a constant house temperatu re automatically. A millivolt thermostat is required. A fixed wall mount or Breckwell’s hand held model c an be used. The control panel can be set up two ways to operate your stove in thermo stat mode.
OPERATING SAFETY PREC AUTIONS PLEASE READ THIS! a. Hot while in operation. Keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Contact may cause skin burns. b. If you notice a smoldering fire (burnpot full but no visible flame ) AND a heavy smoke buildup in firebox, immediately TURN OFF the stove, but DO NOT un plug it.
FAILURE TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN TH IS UNIT AS INDICATED CAN RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE AND SAFET Y HAZARDS. NEVER CLEAN WHEN HOT. NOTE: Inspect burn pot periodically to see that hol es have not become plugged, if so, clean thoroughly. ASH REMOVAL Ashes should be placed in a metal cont ainer with a tight-fitting lid.
CLEANING a. Heat Exchange Tubes – Your Breckwell stove is designed with a built-in heat exchange t ube cleaner. This should be used every two or three days to remove accumulated ash on the tubes, which reduces heat transfer on the P4000. Insert the handle end (with hole) of the cleaning tool onto the cleaning rod (refer to figure 15).
CHIMNEY CLEANING a. Creosote Formation – When any wood is burned sl owly, it pr oduce s tar and ot her organic vapors, whi ch combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue or a newly started fire or from a slow-burning fire.
When your stove acts out of the ordinary, the first reaction is to call for help. This guide may save time and money b y enablin g you to solve simple problems yourself. Problems can be c aused by to only five factors: 1) poor fuel; 2) poor operat ion or maintenance; 3) po or installation; 4) component failure; 5) factory defect.
