Mt. Vernon Pellet Insert (AE)
Getting Started
A. Design, Installation & Location Considerations
Since pellet exhaust can contain ash, soot or sparks, you
must consider the location of:
1. Appliance Location
• Windows
NOTICE: Check building codes prior to installation.
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and
national codes and regulations.
•
Consult insurance carrier, local building inspector, fire
officials or authorities having jurisdiction over restrictions,
installation inspection and permits.
It is a good idea to plan your installation on paper, using
exact measurements for clearances and floor protection,
before actually beginning the installation
Consideration must be given to:
• Safety, convenience, traffic flow
• Placement of the chimney and chimney connector.
• If you are not using an existing chimney, place the appliance where there will be a clear passage for a factorybuilt listed chimney through the ceiling and roof.
• Installing an optional outside air kit would affect the location of the vent termination.
Recommended Location:
• Above peak
• Air Intakes
• Air Conditioner
• Overhang, soffits, porch roofs, adjacent walls
• Landscaping, vegetation
When locating vent and venting termination, vent above
roof line when possible.
Warning! Risk of Fire Damaged parts could impair safe
operation. Do NOT install damaged, incomplete or substitute
components.
CAUTION! If burning shelled field corn, you must use approved venting specifically designed for corn to prevent corrosion or degradation. Follow the instructions from the venting
manufacturer.
NOTICE: Locating the appliance in a location of
considerable air movement can cause intermittent smoke
spillage from appliance. Do not locate appliance near:
•
Frequently open doors
•
Central heat outlets or returns
Recommended Location:
• Above peak
• Inside heated space
Marginal Location:
• Wind loading possible
Marginal Location:
• Below peak
Location NOT recommended:
• Not the highest point of the roof
• Wind loading possible
Recommended:
• Insulated exterior chase
in cooler climates
Location NOT recommended:
• Too close to tree
• Below adjacent structure
• Lower roof line
• Avoid outside wall
Windward
Leeward
Recommended:
Outside Air Intake
on windward side
Multi-level Roofs
NOT recommended:
Outside Air Intake
on leeward side

B. Locating Your Appliance & Chimney
E. Negative Pressure
Location of the appliance and chimney will affect
performance.
WARNING! Risk of Asphyxiation! Negative pressure can
cause spillage of combustion fumes and soot.
•
•
Install through the warm airspace enclosed by the building
envelope. This helps to produce more draft, especially
during lighting and die-down of the fire.
Penetrate the highest part of the roof. This minimizes the
effects of wind loading.
•
Locate termination cap away from trees, adjacent
structures, uneven roof lines and other obstructions.
•
Minimize the use of chimney offsets.
•
Consider the appliance location relative to floor and ceiling
and attic joists.
•
Take into consideration the termination requirements on
Page 12.
CAUTION
Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air available for the appliance to operate properly. It can be strongest in lower levels of the house.
Causes include:
•
Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.)
•
Range hoods
•
Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water heaters
and other combustion appliances
•
Clothes dryers
•
Location of return-air vents to furnace or air
conditioning
•
Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system
•
Upper level air leaks such as:
• Do NOT connect this unit to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance.
• Do NOT connect to any air distribution duct or system.
- Recessed lighting
- Attic hatch
- Duct leaks
To minimize the effects of negative air pressure:
C. Wall Control, Thermostat
The wall control’s location will have some affect on the
appliance’s operation.
• When located close to the appliance, it may require a
slightly higher temperature setting to keep the rest of
the house comfortable.
• When located in an adjacent room or on a different floor
level, you will notice higher temperatures near the appliance.
CAUTION! The wall control is an integral part of the
appliance. No other wall control or thermostat can be
substituted.
D. Draft
•
Install the outside air kit with the intake facing prevailing
winds during the heating season
•
Ensure adequate outdoor air for all combustion appliances
and exhaust equipment
•
Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are not
located in the immediate vicinity of the appliance
•
Avoid installing the appliance near doors, walkways or
small isolated spaces
•
Recessed lighting should be a “sealed can” design
•
Attic hatches weather stripped or sealed
•
Attic mounted duct work and air handler joints and seams
taped or sealed
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent appliances
successfully. When an appliance is drafting successfully, all
combustion byproducts are exiting the home through the
chimney.
Considerations for successful draft include:
•
•
Preventing negative pressure
Location of appliance and chimney
NOTICE: Hearth & Home Technologies assumes no
responsibility for the improper performance of the chimney
system caused by:
• Inadequate draft due to environmental conditions
• Downdrafts
• Tight sealing construction of the structure
• Mechanical exhausting devices

and close to the sleeping areas.
• Follow the smoke detector manufacturer’s placement and
installation instructions and maintain regularly.
• Conveniently locate a Class A fire extinguisher to contend
with small fires.
•
In the event of a hopper fire:
• Evacute the house immediately.

G. Removing Metal Floor of Factory-Built Firebox
•
•
•
The firebrick (refractory), glass doors, screen rails, screen
mesh and log grates can be removed from a factory-built
firebox in order to gain minimum insert opening requirements.
Any smoke shelves, shields and baffles may be removed
from a factory-built firebox if attached with mechanical fasteners.
Use 2 x 4 from insert
packaging to support insert
The metal floor of the factory-built firebox may be removed
to facilitate the installation of the insert only when a 1/4
inch (6mm) airspace is provided between the insert and
the floor of outer wrap.
The following is only one example as there are many different models of factory-built fireplaces.
Figure 11.3. If the floor is made of thin metal,
we recommend using the 2 x 4 from the insert
packaging to support the insert. The 2 x 4
may need to be cut to the appropriate size.
Starter hole
Keep sharp edge of
metal floor away from
power cord
Mark area of
floor to cut
Figure 11.1. Measure and mark the metal

•
It is recommended that at least 60 inches (1524mm) of
vertical pipe be installed when appliance is vented directly
through a wall. This will create a natural draft, which will
help prevent the possibility of smoke or odor venting into
the home during a power outage.
•
It will also keep exhaust from causing a nuisance or hazard
by exposing people or shrubs to high temperatures.
•
The safest and preferred venting method is to extend the
vent vertically through the roof or above the roof.

5. Secure exhaust venting system to the appliance with at
least 3 screws. Also secure all connector pipe joints with
at least 3 screws through each joint.
NOTE: All pipe must be welded seam pipe whenever
possible. Seal pipe joints with high temperature silicone
(500°F [260°C] minimum rated only).
NOTE: If burning shelled field corn, you must use
approved venting specifically designed for corn. Follow
the instructions from the venting manufacturer.

WARNING
The chart will help you in determining proper venting size
according to the equivalent feet of pipe calculated in the Vent
Termination Calculaltion Table and the altitude above sea
level of this installation. See Figure 14.1.
Fire Risk.
Locate the calculated equivalent feet of pipe on the vertical
left side of the chart. Move to the right horizontally on the
chart until you reach your altitude above sea level.
• ALWAYS maintain specified clearances
around venting and firestop systems.
If you fall below the diagonal line, 3 or 4 inch (76 to 102mm)
pipe may be used. If it is anywhere above the diagonal line,
a 4 inch (102mm) diameter pipe is required.
Failure to keep insulation or other material
away from vent pipe may cause fire.
Do NOT pack insulation or other
combustibles between firestops.
• Install firestops as specified.
The chart reveals that a 90° elbow is 5 times as restrictive
to the flow of exhaust gases under positive pressure as one
foot of horizontal pipe, and a foot of horizontal pipe is twice
as restrictive as a foot of vertical pipe.

2. Other Fuels
This appliance has been tested and approved by Hearth &
Home Technologies for shelled field corn, wheat and black
oil sunflower seeds.
CAUTION
Tested and approved for wood pellets, shelled field
corn, wheat and black oil sunflower seeds. Burning
of any other type of fuel voids your warranty.
When purchasing corn or wheat to burn in your appliance,
read the ingredient label very carefully. Do NOT purchase
fuel that contains any additives such as oils (i.e. soybean
oil) and meals as it will result in poor unit performance. If
you are buying corn or wheat the only ingredient that should
be listed is corn or wheat.
A. Fuel Size, Material and Storage
1. Wood Pellets
Wood pellets are made from sawdust or wood by-products. If
the source material is hardwood, they can have a higher mineral
content, creating more ash. Fuels containing bark will also have
higher ash content.
Shelled field corn must be 15% or less moisture content. The
corn must be clean and free from debris. Never burn corn
straight from the field. Stalk parts, excessive fines and cob
remnants, etc. will clog the auger mechanism. Corn with
excessive grain dust must be screened by sifting with 3/16
inch (4.76mm) mesh screening.
Minerals and other non-combustible materials such as sand
will turn into a hard, glass-like substance called a clinker when
heated to the extreme temperatures our firepot reaches. This
is what forms clinkers in the bottom of the firepot. Trees from
different areas will vary in mineral content. That is why some
fuels produce more clinkers than others.
Pellets are manufactured in either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch (6-8mm)
diameter and should be no more than 1-1/2 inches (38mm)
in length. Pellet lengths may even vary by lot from the same
manufacturer which is why the feed rate may need to be adjusted
occasionally. If you burn pellets longer than 1-1/2 inches
(38mm) you may have an inconsistent fuel feed rate and/or
missed ignitions.
Pellet fuel quality can greatly fluctuate. The Advanced Energy
(AE) appliance has been designed to burn a wide variety of fuels,
giving you the choice to use the fuel that is most economical in
your region. Premium wood pellets have the lowest ash content,
under 1%. Standard grade pellet, high ash pellets, corn and
other biomass fuels all have higher ash content.
The higher the ash content, the more often the ash pan will need
to be emptied. Premium wood pellets will produce the least ash
and tends to produce the highest heat output.
Pellets made from hardwoods (i.e. oak) have a higher ash content
than pellets made from softwoods (i.e. pine). The hardwood
pellets may require more air to burn properly so make sure you
have the wall control on the correct setting.
If you are burning a higher ash fuel and your firepot and ash pan
are filling quickly, set the wall control on “Utility Pellet” and the
auto-clean system will empty the firepot more frequently.
Always burn dry fuel. Burning fuel with high moisture content
takes heat from the fuel and tends to cool the appliance,
robbing heat from your home. Damp pellet fuel can clog the
feed system.
We recommend that you buy fuel in multi-ton lots whenever
possible. However, we do recommend trying various brands
before purchasing multi-ton lots to ensure your satisfaction.
September 1, 2008
WARNING
Risk of Chemical Poisoning.
• Do Not burn treated seed corn
• Chemical pesticides are harmful or fatal if
swallowed
• Burning treated seed corn will void your
warranty
Do not burn treated seed corn in your appliance. Seed corn
is treated with chemical pesticides that are harmful or fatal if
swallowed; therefore, seed corn is dangerous to have in the
house, expecially where children can reach it. Burning treated
seed corn in your appliance will void your warranty and will
destroy the exhaust system on the unit.
When changing to a different fuel, be sure to empty the hopper
of the previous fuel and vacuum the hopper before you fill it
with the new fuel. Make the appropriate selection on the FUEL
SELECTION screen on the thermostat wall control. The burn
rate, BTU content and heat output will all vary depending on
fuel selected. See Figure 23.3 on page 23.
3. Storage
Wood pellets should be left in their original sealed bag until
using. This will prevent moisture absorption.
Shelled corn, wheat or sunflower seeds should be stored in
a tight container where it will not absorb moisture from damp
or wet floors. This will also prevent rodents from becoming
a problem.
Do not store any pellet fuel within the clearance requirements
or in an area that would hinder routine cleaning and
maintenance.

and that all safety requirements have been met. Pay
particular attention to the fire protection, venting and wall
control thermostat installation instructions.
1. Wall Control Thermostat - Automatic Setting
2. Double check that the ash pan and firebox are empty and
then close the front door.
The appliance is like most modern furnaces; when the
wall control thermostat calls for heat, your appliance will
automatically light and deliver heat. When the room is up to
temperature and the wall control is satisfied the appliance
will shut down.
In the automatic setting the heat output level is controlled
by the wall control. Select “Automatic” on the AUTO/
MANUAL screen. Figure 24.1.
CAUTION

E. Fire Characteristics and Flame Height
Adjustment
G. Ignition Cycles
A properly adjusted fire with the heat output on HIGH has an
active flame pattern that extends out of the firepot approximately 8 inches (203mm).
If the fire has tall flames with black tails and seems somewhat lazy, the flame height will need to be reduced. If
the fire is not 8 inches (203mm) tall, the flame height will
need to be increased. A medium and low setting will give
a shorter flame.
The flame will rise and fall somewhat. This is normal.
With your appliance in Manual mode and the heat output
level set to High, adjust the flame height using the FLAME
HEIGHT ADJUST screen under USER SETTINGS on the
wall control. Figure 25.1.
The Advanced Energy engine is controlled by the digital wall
control. The digital display on the wall control will tell you
what your appliance is doing in the upper left corner, above
the line.
Every time the thermostat calls for heat, the appliance steps
through five cycles:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Ignition cycle
Soft-start cycle
Heating cycle
Shut down cycle
Cleaning cycle
The duration and characteristics of these cycles may be different with each type of fuel selected.

Figure 25.1
F. Battery Back-up System (Optional)
The appliance has been designed to operate on an optional
battery back-up system. If you have frequent power outages
in your region, hook the appliance up to a 12 volt battery and
it will automatically switch to battery power in the event of
power failure. There will be a battery icon that appears on
your wall control to let you know you are now operating on
battery power.
Once you are operating on battery power, you must manually
light the fire in the appliance as it will no longer automatically
light. Use only approved fire starting gel to start the fire. The
high burn rate is no longer available on battery back-up as
each level drops down one level. For example; the high burn
becomes medium high burn and so on.
We recommend a 12 volt deep cycle battery, (i.e., marine
or RV type). If the battery charge falls below 10 volt it can
no longer sustain the appliance operation and the appliance
will shut down. A 12 volt battery cable is available through
your local dealer.
CAUTION
• Hook up to battery terminals BEFORE you
plug battery into the appliance.
• Damage to internal electronic components
may occur.

The igniter turns on for 90 seconds to heat up the air
in the firepot
The combustion blower starts
Vacuum switch comes on
Feed motor turns on adding fuel to the firepot and
the appliance waits for the fire to start
The duration of start-up depends on the type and quality of
fuel used. It is normal to see some smoke during the ignition process as moisture evaporates and the fuel lights. The
smoke will stop once the fire starts.
If you are lighting your appliance for the first time the feed
tube is empty and it can take some time to fill it with fuel
before you will see a fire. To speed up this process, put a
handful of fuel in the firepot. You can also do this when you
have run your hopper dry.
2. SS-Low / SS-Med (Slow-Start Low, Slow-Start Medium)
Once the fire is lit, the appliance moves into the low soft-start
cycle as it continues to build the fire. In this cycle, more fuel
will be added. As the fire builds, the appliance will change to
medium soft-start mode and the heating cycle begins.
3. Auto / Man - L, ML, M, MH, H
There are two choices in the Automatic / Manual menu of
how your appliance will operate.
In Automatic Mode, the wall control will turn the heat output
level up or down depending on how far the room temperature is from the desired temperature. The digital display will
read AUTO:M as an example of automatic, medium level.
As the room temperature approaches the desired temperature, the appliance will turn down to lower settings. When
you change the appliance to Manual, set the heat output setting from the main screen. The right bottom button will read
HEAT OUTPUT.

WARNING
You can operate the appliance from any of the 5 levels. On
the lowest level, the appliance will stay on longer, burn less
fuel per hour, but will take longer to bring the home up to
your desired temperature. On the highest setting, the appliance will burn more fuel per hour, but bring your home up to
temperature more quickly.
Fire Risk
Do NOT operate appliance:
• With appliance door open.
• Firepot floor open.
Do NOT store fuel:
• Closer than required clearances to combustibles to appliance
• Within space required for loading or ash
removal.
Regardless of the heat output level, when the home reaches
your set temperature, the appliance will go into the shut
down cycle. In Manual mode heat output does not change.
Turn to OFF to stop operation.
4. Shutdown
Once your home has reached your set temperature, the
appliance will stop feeding fuel and allow the fire to diminish. The convection blower will continue to run until the
appliance cools to appropriate temperature and will go into
the auto-clean cycle.
WARNING
5. Auto Clean
The firepot auto-clean system will cycle when the appliance
is first plugged in:
•
• When the house reaches temperature and the appliance shuts down.
•
• At prescribed intervals, depending on the type of fuel
selected.
•
If your appliance is running and the auto-clean cycle is initiated, the appliance will revert to shut down cycle.
•
Fire Risk.
Keep combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapors and liquids
clear of appliance.
Do NOT store flammable materials in the appliance’s
vicinity.
Do NOT use gasoline, lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal
lighter fluid or similar liquids to start or “freshen up” a
fire in this heater.
Keep all such liquids well away from the heater while it
is in use.
Combustible materials may ignite.
The floor of the firepot will open and deposit the ash into the
ash pan. It takes approximately 2 minutes to complete the
auto-clean cycle. The floor will then shut, and if the thermostat is still calling for heat, the fire will start again, continuing
the heating process.
During this auto-clean cycle, the convection blower will continue to run.
Additional Screen Messages:
READY It is telling you that the home is up to temperature
and doesn’t need any heat.
- - - - - The screen will show 5 dashes when the wall
control and the control board are NOT communicating with
each other. Check that the wiring on the thermostat is properly connected.
MAINTENANCE BURN The maintenance burn is to keep
the system from shutting down when operating on battery
backup. The appliance will not automatically re-light in
manual mode.

I. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUES
SOLUTIONS
1. Metallic noise
1. Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as
it heats up and cools down, similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not
affect the operation or longevity of your appliance.
2.
Ash buildup on glass
2. This is normal. Clean the glass.
3.
Glass has turned dirty
3. Excessive build up of ash. The lower burn settings will
produce more ash, the higher burn settings produce
less. The more it burns on low the more frequent cleaning of the glass is required.
4.
Fire has tall flames with black tails and is lazy
4. The flame height adjustment needs to be reduced or
the firepot needs cleaning. Heat exchanger or exhaust
blower needs cleaning.
5.
Excessive smokey start-up
5. Either the firepot is dirty or there is too much fuel at
start-up and not enough air.
6.
Large flame at start-up
6. This is normal. Flame will settle down once the fire is
established. Some smoke is normal.
7.
Mechanical Noise
7. The floor of the firepot in the auto-clean system may
make some noise as it scrapes the ash into the ash
pan.
CAUTION

C. General Maintenance and Cleaning
3. Cleaning Ash Pan
•
1. Types of Fuel
Depending on the type of fuel you are burning will dictate how
often the firepot cleans itself. If the fuel you are burning has
a high dirt or ash content or you are burning other biomass
fuels, it may be necessary to do a more thorough cleaning
during the burn season.
•
Frequency:
Wood Pellet Fuel: Weekly or every 5 bags of fuel
Alternate Fuel: Daily
By: Homeowner
Locate the ash pan underneath the firepot. Slide the
ash pan straight out. Empty into a non-combustible
container and re-install ash pan. When replacing ash
pan push it back until it catches on the 2 side latches.
See Disposal of Ashes below.
The auto-clean firepot system will routinely clean the
firepot, at shutdown when the wall control is satisfied or the
predetermined amount of burn time has elapsed.
A clinker is formed when dirt, ash or a non-burnable
substance is heated to 2000°F (1093°C) and becomes glasslike. Clinkers filling the ash pan will have to be cleaned out
more often than ash. Excessive clinkers will eventually jam
the auto-clean system and generate an error. Figure 32.1.
4. Ash Removal from Firebox
•
•
Frequency: Weekly or more frequently depending on
fuel type or ash build-up.
By: Homeowner
There must not be any hot ashes in the firebox during
cleaning so allow the appliance to completely cool.
Frequent cleaning of the ash in the firebox with a vacuum
cleaner will help slow down the build-up of ash in the
exhaust blower and vent system.
WARNING
Disposal of Ashes
• Ashes should be placed in metal container
with tight fitting lid.
• Ashes should be retained in closed container
until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

Frequency: As needed
By: Homeowner
a. The appliance must be in complete shutdown,
completely cool and the exhaust blower off.
b. Inspect the auto-clean springs for any degradation or
deformation. As the springs heat up and cool down
they can lose tension.
If there is a gap showing above the firepot floor it means
the springs have lost their tension and can not keep
the floor in the proper position.
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a
tight-fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should
be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground,
well away from all combustible materials, pending final
disposal.
If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise
locally dispersed, they should be retained in the
closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly
cooled.
This will cause ignition problems and fuel falling into
the ash pan. Replace them if that occurs.
c. Inspect the holes in the firepot floor for any debris.
They must be kept clear. If you are burning corn, the
holes have a tendency to fill with particles which will
need to be removed.

13. Soot and Fly Ash: Formation & Need for Removal
in Exhaust Venting System.
•
Frequency: Yearly or more frequently depending on
fuel type or ash build-up
By: Qualified Service Technician/Homeowner
•
CAUTION
The products of combustion will contain small particles
of fly ash. The fly ash will collect in the exhaust venting
system and restrict the flow of the flue gases.
Handle glass assembly with care.
At start-up if there is incomplete combustion, or if there
is a shutdown or incorrect operation of the appliance it
will lead to some soot formation. This will collect in the
exhaust venting system.
When cleaning glass door:
• Avoid striking, scratching or slamming
glass.
• Do NOT clean glass when hot.
The venting system may need to be cleaned at least
once a year or more often depending upon the quality
of your fuel or if there is a lot of horizontal pipe sections. Ash will build up more quickly in the horizontal
sections.
• Do NOT use abrasive cleaners.
• Use a hard water deposit glass cleaner on white film.
Refer to maintenance instructions.
14. Preparing Firebox for Non-Burn Season
•
•
WARNING
a.
The appliance must be in complete shutdown,
completely cool and the exhaust blower offf.
b.
Remove all ash from the firebox and vacuum thoroughly.
c.
Paint all exposed steel, including cast-iron. Use
the Touch-Up paint supplied with the appliance or
purchase paint from your local dealer. You must
use a high-temperature paint made specificially for
heating appliances.

E. Baffle Removal
D. High Ash Fuel Content Maintenance
•
•
Frequency: As needed
By: Homeowner
WARNING
If the ash build-up exceeds the half way point in the firepot
before it automatically cleans, then the firepot is not being
cleaned often enough.
Another symptom is if clinkers are adhering to the sides
of the firepot. Double check the wall control to ensure the
proper setting has been selected for the fuel you are burning.
If that is correct, change the setting to “Utility Pellet”.
Cast iron is a very heavy material. The baffle is
made of cast iron and therefore is heavy and awkward at times to maneuver. Clear and prepare
your work area before you begin.
a. The appliance must be in complete shutdown, completely cool and the exhaust blower off.
b. Open door.
c. The baffle is located at the top inside of firebox.
WARNING
d. Remove baffle by placing a flat head screw driver into
the slot of the latches located in the upper corners and
push down. The bottom of the latch will fall forward off
of the post. Lift the baffle up and then out toward you.
Figure 36.2.
Fire and Smoke Risk.
•
•
High ash fuels or lack of maintenance
can cause firepot to overfill. Follow
proper shutdown procedure if ash buildup
exceeds half way point in firepot.
e. To replace the baffle, place the 2 locating ears behind
the bottom edge and tilt the baffle up and into place
Failure to do so could result in smoking,
sooting and possible hopper fires.
f. The baffle must be centered in the firebox before latching it in place. If it is not centered the latch is trapped
between the baffle and side of the firebox instead of
latching properly.
g. The bottom of the latches will fit over the posts. Push
the top of the latch forward to lock latch into place.

Reference Materials
A. Component Functions
1. Auto-Clean Motor
The auto-clean motor is located under and behind the
firepot on the left side, inside the convection air chamber.
It automatically opens and closes the firepot floor so ashes
can fall into the ash pan.
2. Auto-Clean Switch
The auto-clean switch is located on top of the auto-clean
motor. It communicates to the control board when the firepot
floor is open and when the auto-clean system has completed
its cycle and is back in the home (closed) position.
When describing the location of a component,
it is always AS YOU FACE THE FRONT OF
THE APPLIANCE.
9. Firepot
The firepot is made of high quality ductile iron. The floor of
the firepot automatically opens for cleaning and is operated
by the auto-clean firepot system. The floor needs to return
to a completely closed position or the appliance will not
operate properly.
10. Fuses
This is an optional accessory. It will plug into the appliance
next to the power outlet located behind the left cast side
panel. An icon will display on the wall control when the
appliance has lost main power and is running on battery
back-up.
There are three fuses. Two fuses are located on the inside
of the control board. One fuse is AC and operates the
igniter and the other fuse is DC and operates all of the
other components. The third fuse is located in the power
supply. A fuse will blow should a short occur and shut off
power to the appliance. The fuses can only be serviced by
an authorized dealer.
4. Control Board
11. Heat Exchanger
The control board is located on the lower left side of appliance,
behind the left side panel and above the vacuum switch. It
controls the functioning of the appliance and communicates
with the wall control. The control board can only be opened
by an authorized dealer.
The heat exchanger is located behind the baffle and it
transfers heat from the exhaust system into the convection
air chamber. Remove the cast iron baffle to access the heat
exchanger.
5. Convection Blower
The hopper lid switch is located on the right side inside the
hopper. It senses whether the hopper lid is open and displays
an icon on the wall control and will turn off the feed motor.
3. 12 Volt Battery Back-Up Cable
The convection blower is mounted at the bottom left rear of
the appliance. The convection blower pushes heated air
through the heat exchange system into the room.
6. Door Switch
The door switch is mounted on the right side of the firebox
behind the door handle. It senses when the door is open
and will display an icon on the wall control, and will turn off
the auto-clean system and feed motor for safety.
7. Combustion (Exhaust) Blower
The combustion (exhaust) blower is mounted in the bottom
right rearof appliance. The blower is designed to pull the
exhaust from the appliance and push it out through the
venting system.
8. Feed System
The feed system is located on the right side of the appliance
and can be removed as an entire assembly. The assembly
includes the feed motor, mounting bracket, bearing and feed
spring (auger). The hollow feed spring (auger) pulls pellets
up the feed tube from the hopper area and drops them down
the feed chute into the firepot.
Page 38
12. Hopper Lid Switch
13. Igniter
The igniter is mounted on the base of the firepot. Combustion
air travels over the red hot igniter creating super heated air
that ignites the pellets.
14. Low Fuel Indicator
The low fuel indication is attached to the left side of the
hopper. It senses the amount of fuel in the hopper and will
display an icon on the wall control when the fuel level is
low.
15. Optical Switch (Auger)
The optical switch is located on top of the feed system and
communicates to the wall control that the auger is spinning
or it has stopped.
16. Power Receptacle
The power receptacle is located on the left side of the
appliance, behind the left cast side panel. Check the wall
receptacle for 120 volt, 60 Hz (standard current). Make sure
the outlet is grounded and has the correct polarity. A good
quality surge protector is highly recommended to protect
the electronics.

Mt. Vernon Pellet Insert (AE)
17. Power Supply
21. Vacuum Switch
The power supply is located at the bottom left side of the
appliance. It converts 120 volt AC current to 15 volt DC current
to power the appliance.
The vacuum switch is located on the right side of the
appliance under the feed motor behind the right side panel
and connects to the drop tube with a hose. This switch turns
the feed system on when vacuum is present in the firebox.
The vacuum switch is a safety device designed to shut off
the feed motor if the exhaust or the heat exchanger system
is dirty or plugged or if the firebox door is open.
18. Overheat Sensor (Snap Disc)
The overheat sensor is mounted on the back of the drop tube
in the center of the appliance and has a reset button. To
access it remove the right side panel. If the fire tries to burn
back into the feed system or push exhaust up the feed tube,
this sensor will shut the appliance down, however the wall
control will continue to display messages. This sensor must
be manually reset. Disconnect power before resetting.
19. Thermocouple - Firepot
The thermocouple is located on top of the firepot inside
the thermocouple cover (ceramic protection tube). The
thermocouple sends a millivolt signal to the control board
telling the control board there is a fire in the firepot.
22. Wall Control
The appliance is designed to run on a custom designed 3.3
volt DC thermostat wall control. It will not operate on any
other wall control. Refer to the instructions supplied with
the thermostat wall control.
23. Wiring Connections for Control Board
See Figure 39.1
24. Wiring Connection for Power Supply
See Figure 39.2.
20. Thermocouple on Drop Tube
The thermocouple is located on the bottom of the drop tube
on the right side and is attached with a wing nut. It turns
the convection blower on and off, varies the speed of the
convection blower and will shut down the appliance if internal
heat exceeds set temperature.

Hearth & Home Technologies LIMITED WARRANTY (Cont’d)
HHT’s obligation under this warranty does not extend to damages resulting from: (1) installation, operation or maintenance of the appliance not in accordance with the installation instructions; operating instructions and the listing
agent identification label furnished with the appliance; (2) installation which does not comply with local building codes;
(3) shipping, improper handling, improper operation, abuse, misuse, accident or unworkmanlike repairs; (4) environmental conditions, inadequate ventilation or drafting caused by tight sealing construction of the structure or handling
devices such as exhaust fans or forced air furnaces or other such causes; (5) use of fuels other than those specified
in the operating instructions; (6) installation or use of components not supplied with the appliance or any other components not expressly authorized and approved by HHT; and/or (7) modification of the appliance not expressly authorized and approved by HHT in writing.
This warranty does not apply to non-HHT venting components, hearth components or other accessories used in conjunction with the installation of this product.
This warranty is void if the appliance has been over-fired or operated in atmospheres contaminated by chlorine,
fluorine, or other damaging chemicals the appliance is subject to prolonged periods of dampness or condensation, or
there is any damage to the appliance or other components due to water or weather damage which is the result of, but
not limited to, improper chimney or venting installation.
HHT’s liability under this warranty is limited to the replacement and repair of defective components or workmanship
during the applicable period. HHT may fully discharge all of its obligations under such warranties by repairing the
defective component(s) at HHT’s discretion. Shipping costs are not covered under this warranty.
Some states do not allow exclusions or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so those limitations may not
apply to you. This warranty gives you specific rights; you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, HHT MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THE
WARRANTY SPECIFIED HEREIN. THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO DURATION OF
THE WARRANTY SPECIFIED ABOVE.
This Limited Warranty is effective on all HHT appliances sold after September 01, 2008 and supersedes any and all warranties currently in existence.
If warranty service is needed, you should contact your installing dealer. If the installing dealer is unable to provide necessary parts or components, contact the nearest authorized HHT dealer or supplier.
