6 INSTALLATION 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). A rodent guard (minimum ¼” wire mesh)/wind hood must be used at the terminus (refer to figure 5). All connections must be secured and airtight by either using the appropriately sized hose clamp and/or UL-181-AP foil tape. F

INSTALLATION 7 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 equivalent vent length. • Horizontal runs shall not exceed 10 feet of EVL. • It is recommended that vertical runs be a minimum of 8 feet. • To calculate EVL, use the following conversions: 90º elbow or “T” = 5 equiva

8 INSTALLATION B. VERTICALLY WITH NEW CHIMNEY SYSTEM (Refer to Figure 7) NOTE: See “VENTING” and follow L-Vent chimney manufacturer’s instructions. OPTION: To achieve 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. OPTION: Install L-Vent elbow in place of clean-out tee. Locate stove. Drop plumb bob to center of tee outlet, mark point on ceiling. Install ceiling support and L-Ve

INSTALLATION 9 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. If outside combustion air is to be used, you will need a pipe length equal to the chimney height plus 18 inches. 3. Install a blanking plate and the

10 INSTALLATION 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. Voltage variations can lead to serious performance problems. The Breckwell electrical system is designed for 120V AC with no more than 5% variation. Breckwell cannot accept responsibility for poor performance or

OPERATION 11 PANEL CONTROLS (See Figure 12) The blowers and automatic fuel supply are controlled from a panel on the left-hand side 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. The igniter will stay on for at least 10 and up to 15 minutes, depending on when Proof of Fire is reached. The fire should start in about 5 minutes. • The green light located above the On

12 OPERATION PROPER FUEL THIS STOVE IS APPROVED FOR BURNING PELLETIZED WOOD FUEL ONLY! Factory-approved pellets are those ¼” or 5/16” in diameter and not over 1” long. Longer or thicker pellets sometimes bridge the auger flights, which prevents proper pellet feed. Burning wood in forms other than pellets is not permitted. It will violate the building codes for which the stove has been approved and will void all warranties. The design incorporates automatic feed of the pellet fuel into the

OPERATION 13 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 down for 2 seconds. IF STOVE RUNS OUT OF PELLETS The fire goes out and the auger motor and blowers will run until the stove cools. This will take 30 to 45 minutes. After the stove components stop running the “Power” and the BAR GRAPH lights stay on for 10 minutes. After the 10 minutes the “3” light on the bar graph will flash and

16 MAINTENANCE FAILURE TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN THIS UNIT AS INDICATED CAN RESULT IN POOR PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY HAZARDS. NEVER CLEAN WHEN HOT. NOTE: Inspect burn pot periodically to see that holes have not become plugged, if so, clean thoroughly. ASH REMOVAL Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The closed container or ashes should be placed on a noncombustible surface or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials pending final disposal.

MAINTENANCE 17 CLEANING Baffle Plates a. Heat Exchange Tubes – Your Breckwell stove is designed with a built-in heat exchange tube 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 Air Switch Tube rod (refer to figure 15). The cleaner rod is located in the grill above the stove door. Move the cleaner rod back and forth

18 MAINTENANCE CHIMNEY CLEANING a. Creosote Formation – When any wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which 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. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire, which may damage the chimney or even destroy the house. Despite their

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 19 When your stove acts out of the ordinary, the first reaction is to call for help. This guide may save time and money by enabling you to solve simple problems yourself. Problems can be caused by to only five factors: 1) poor fuel; 2) poor operation or maintenance; 3) poor installation; 4) component failure; 5) factory defect. You can usually solve those problems related to 1 and 2. Your dealer can solve problems relating to 3, 4 and 5. Refer to figures 20, 21 and 22

The air damper is too far open for a low feed setting. If burning on the low setting, you may need to close the damper all the way (push the knob in so it touches the side of the stove). 3. The burnpot is not pushed completely to the rear of the firebox. Make sure that the air in
