5. FILLING THE PELLET HOPPER WITH PELLETS

5.1 FUEL TYPE

Do not use any fuel other than the specified wooden pellets. Other fuels
such as wood waste with glue and/or solvents, waste wood in general,
cardboard, liquid fuel, alcohol, petroleum, petrol, waste material, refuse
etc. are prohibited.
There are various pellets on the market which vary in quality and have different
properties. Poor quality pellets will have a negative effect on the efficiency of the
combustion, contaminate the stove and in extreme cases create dangerous situa-
tions.
Using the wrong type of pellets (poor quality or a different diameter
than specified) can cause damage to your stove. Damage caused by using
the wrong type of pellets is not covered by the warranty.
Only use good quality wooden pellets with a 6 mm diameter and a maximum
length of 30 mm. There are different kinds of wooden pellets with different prop-
erties and varying quality available on the market. Good quality pellets can be
recognised as follows:
- diameter 6 mm.
- maximum length 30 mm.
- wooden pellets comply with 6mm DIN+ / Ö-norm+ / EN+ or equivalent.
- properly compressed, no residual adhesive, resin or additives.
- smooth, shiny surface
- uniform length and low dust content
- residual water content: <10%
- ash content: <0.5%
- good quality pellets sink when placed in water
Poor quality fuel can generally be recognised as follows:
- different diameter than the required 6 mm and/or various diameters
- varying lengths, higher percentage of shorter pellets
- the surfaces exhibit vertical and/or horizontal cracks
- high dust content
- dull surface
- floats in water
Poor fuel may result in:
- poor combustion
- frequent blocking of the combustion chamber
- increased pellet consumption
- low heat output and low efficiency
