Automatic Ignition/Operation The Advance pellet stove is more than just automatic ignition, it is also automatic temperature control. The automatic system will allow the fire size to be adjusted to match the heating needs and even put the fire out if necessary. If heat is needed after the fire is out, the Advance will automatically re-ignite and adjust the fire size to match the heating need. The totally automatic room sensor mode is recommended because of its efficiency. The unit can be switche

This also allows the operator to manually control operation during an emergency (i.e. igniter failure, when using a 502H battery backup, or when using certain generators.) The unit can be switched between "AUTO" and "MANUAL" at any time during operation. NOTE: When starting the unit in the "AUTO" mode and switching to "MANUAL", the fire must be large enough to start the distribution blower. The starting of the bl

Venting A combustion blower is used to extract the com- bustion gases from the firebox. This causes a nega- tive pressure in the firebox and a positive pressure in the venting system as shown in fig. 19. The longer the vent pipe and more elbows used in the system, the greater the flow resistance. Because of these facts we recommend using as few elbows as pos- sible and 15 feet or less of vent pipe. The maximum horizontal run should not exceed 48". If more than 15 feet of pipe is needed, the diam

In this method a cap should also be installed on the chimney to keep out rain. Be sure to use approved pellet vent pipe fittings. Seal pipe joints with silicone in additio
