If the alarm sounds
1. Increase house ventilation by opening windows or
doors.
2. Make sure the stove doors and hopper lid are closed
and latched.
Even though this stove is designed to be as safe
as possible, it is recommended that you install a CO
detector. This is true for oil, gas, or wood burning
products as well.
CO is not specifically heavier or lighter than air.
Therefore, it is best to install the detector at table top level
rather than on the ceiling like a smoke detector.
3. Check stove for electrical power and normal opera-
tion.
4. Check vent for possible blockage or down-draft.
5. Check for false alarm.
NEVER CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY
FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
Never 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.
Installation and repair of this stove should be done
by a competent and qualified professional. We
recommend that the stove be inspected before
use and at least annually by a qualified service
person. Periodic cleaning is required throughout
the heating season and at the end of each winter
for the stove to work efficiently.
SPECIAL NOTE:
DUE TO ASH BUILDUP, IT IS STRONGLY
RECOMMENDED TO HAVE YOUR STOVE

A. Design, Installation & Location
B. Fire Safety
Considerations
Maintain the designated clearances to combustibles.
Insulation must not touch the chimney. You must
maintain the designated air space around the chim-
ney. This space around a chimney is necessary to
allow natural heat removal from the area. Insulation
in this space will cause a heat buildup, which may
ignite wood framing. NOTE: Clearances may only
be reduced by means approved by the regulatory
authority having jurisdiction.
1. Appliance Location
Consideration must be given to safety, convenience,
traffic flow, and the fact that the appliance will need to
be vented to the outside. This appliance may only
be installed into an existing masonry or manufac-
tured wood-burning fireplace or using the optional
zero-clearance cabinet to build into a newly con-
structed chase. It is a good idea to plan your instal-
lation on paper. Use exact measurements for clear-
ances and floor protection, before actually beginning
the installation.
To provide reasonable fire safety, the following should
be given serious consideration:
Maintain specified vent clearance to combustible
requirements listed by the vent manufacturers instruc- 1. Install at least one smoke detector on each floor
tions and all appliance clearances as listed in this
manual.
of your home. Detectors should be located away
from the heating appliance and close to sleeping
areas. Follow the smoke detector manufacturer's
placement and installation instructions, and be
sure to maintain regularly.
Check with your local building code agency before
you begin your installation. Local codes may su-
persede the test laboratories specifications. Always
obtain any required permit(s) so that insurance pro-
tection benefits cannot be unexpectedly cancelled. If
any assistance is required during installation, please
contact your dealer.
2. A conveniently located Class A fire extinguisher
to contend with small fires resulting from burning
embers.
3. A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least
two escape routes.
We recommend that a qualified building inspector and
your insurance company representative review your
plans before and after the installation.
4. A plan to deal with a hopper fire as follows:
In the event of a hopper fire:
a. Turn appliance to "OFF".
b. Be sure hopper lid is closed and latched.
c. Notify Fire Department.
2. Room Sensor Location
The room sensor's location will have some effect on
the appliance's operation. When the sensor is located
close to the appliance, it may require a higher set-
ting to keep the rest of the house comfortable. If the
sensor is located in an adjacent room, or farther away
from the stove, you will notice higher temperatures
near the appliance.
d. Do NOT pour water in the hopper.
e. Never pull the plug or otherwise disconnect the
power supply to kill a fire.

P35i Fireplace Insert
F. Factory-Built Fireplace Installation
The factory built chimney must be listed per UL 127 (US)
and meet type HT requirements of UL 103 (US). Factory
Built fireplace chimneys tested to UL 127-98 may be, at the
fireplace manufacturers option, tested to the same criteria
as UL 103HT requirements. If the chimney is not listed as
meeting HT requirements, or if the factory built fireplace was
tested prior to 1998, a full height listed chimney liner must
be installed from the appliance flue collar to the chimney top.
Liner must meet high temperature (2100 F) per UL1777 (US).
The liner must be securely attached to both the flue collar
and the chimney cap. To prevent room air passage to the
chimney cavity of the fireplace, seal the damper area around
the chimney liner with fiberglass batting.
When installing the P35i Insert into a factory built
wood burning fireplace, several things need to be taken
into consideration.
The size of the fireplace opening. Will the unit fit into
the opening? Some of the factory built fireplaces have
metal smoke shields inside the top that can be removed
to gain height. Keep in mind that anything removed
from the factory built fireplace must be attached to the
fireplace with a metal wire. Floor protection guidelines,
as listed previously, must also be followed.
The manufactured fireplace may not be altered be-
yond the exceptions listed below. Never remove masonry
bricks or mortar from an existing fireplace.
The following modifications are permissible:
• Removal of the damper or lock in open position
• Removal of smoke shelf or baffle
IN CANADA: This fireplace insert
must be installed with a continuous
chimney liner of a minimum 3"
diameter extending from the insert to
the top of the chimney. The chimney
liner must conform to the Class 3
requirements of CAN/ULC-S635,
Standard for Lining Systems for
Existing Masonry or Factory Built
Chimneys and Vents, or CAN/ULC-
S640, Standard for Lining Systems
for New Masonry Chimneys.
• Removal of andirons or ember catchers
• Removal of log grate
• Removal of view screen or curtain
• Removal of doors
• External trim pieces, that do not affect the operation
of the fireplace, may be removed providing they can
be stored on or within the fireplace for reassembly if
the insert is removed.
• If the hearth extension is lower than the fireplace
opening, the portion of the insert extending onto the
hearth must be supported.
• Final approval of this type of installation is contingent
upon the authority having jurisdiction.
When using single-wall
venting or flex,this section
of venting must be wrapped
with a non-combustible
insulation to prevent excess
temperatures within the
fireplace and on the fuel
hopper.
Hearth must be constructed to
the proper height and finished
with a non-combustible
material.
Note: If the Harman P35i Insert is installed into a factory built wood burning fireplace, this
label (Harman part # 3-90-00675) MUST be attached to the altered fireplace.

In addition, the following must be observed:
A. The clearance above grade must be a minimum of
18".1
K. The clearance to a mechanical air supply inlet must
be a minimum of 10 feet.1
(with outside air installed, 6 feet )
L. The clearance above a paved sidewalk or a paved

P35i Fireplace Insert
B. Avoiding Smoke and Odors
Negative Pressure, Shut-down, and Power
Vent Configurations:
To reduce probability of reverse drafting during
shut-down conditions, Hearth & Home Technologies
strongly recommends:
• Installing the pellet vent with a minimum vertical
run of five feet, preferably terminating above the roof
line.
Failure:
To reduce the probability of back-drafting or burn-
back in the pellet burning appliance during power
failure or shut-down conditions, the stove must
be able to draft naturally without exhaust blower op-
eration. Negative pressure in the house will resist this
natural draft if not accounted for in the pellet appliance
installation.
• Installing the outside air intake at least four feet
below the vent termination.
Heat rises in the house and leaks out at upper levels.
This air must be replaced with cold air from outdoors,
which flows into lower levels of the house. Vents and
chimneys into basements and lower levels of the house
can become the conduit for air supply, and reverse under
these conditions.
To prevent soot damage to exterior walls of the
house and to prevent re-entry of soot or ash into the
house:
• Maintain specified clearances to windows, doors,
and air inlets, including air conditioners.
• Vents should not be placed below ventilated
soffits. Run the vent above the roof.
• Avoid venting into alcove locations.
• Vents should not terminate under overhangs,
decks or onto covered porches.
Outside Air:
Harman Home Heating and Hearth & Home Tech-
nologies recommend attaching outside air in all
installations, especially lower level and main floor
locations.
Per national building codes, consideration must be
given to combustion air supply to all combustion appli-
ances. Failure to supply adequate combustion air for all
appliance demands, may lead to back-drafting of those
and other appliances.
When the appliance is side-wall vented: The air intake
is best located on the same exterior wall as the exhaust
vent outlet and located lower on the wall than the exhaust
vent outlet.
When the appliance is roof vented: The air intake is
best located on the exterior wall oriented towards the
prevailing wind direction during the heating season.
The outside air connection will supply the demands of
the pellet appliance, but consideration must be given to
the total house demand. House demand may consume
some air needed for the stove, especially during a power
failure. It may be necessary to add additional ventilation
to the space in which the pellet appliance is located.
Consult with your local HVAC professional to determine
the ventilation demands for your house.
• Maintain minimum clearance of 12 inches from
the vent termination to the exterior wall. If you see
deposits developing on the wall, you may need to
extend this distance to accommodate your installation
conditions.
Hearth & Home Technologies assumes no
responsibility for, nor does the warranty extend
to, smoke damage caused by reverse drafting
of pellet appliances under shut-down or power
failure conditions.
Do not connect this unit to a chimney
flue servicing another appliance.
NOTE: The restriction of not venting more than one appliance
to the same flue applies to the U.S. specifically. While it is not
recommended that you use the same chimney for more than
one appliance, in Canada certain exceptions may be made.
Be sure to contact your building code inspection official to
see if this option is allowed in your area, and to find out the
specific requirements for such an installation.
The outside air kit consists of a flue stub pipe,
fiberglass gasket, silicone gasket, intake box and a
section of flex pipe.
An adjustable chimney intake extension, part # 1-00-
674104 is available to be used on masonry chimneys
only.
To install outside air, use kit part number 1-00-774280.
Follow the installation instructions provided with the
kit.
Do not connect this unit to any air
distribution duct or system.

D. Existing Fireplace Installation:
If using a short run of venting, whether flex or rigid,
through the damper and into the chimney flue; The
Damper must be removed or locked in the open posi-
tion and sealed with a plate constructed of steel or
other non-combustible material.
Kaowool, mineral wool or other non-combustible insu-
lation is recommended above the plate to reduce the
possibility of condensation. You will also need to wrap
the venting section between the insert frame and the
damper sealing plate. This is to prevent overheating
of the fireplace cavity, which may cause damage to
the insert's motors and other electrical components.
The connector pipe should extend through the sealing
plate and smoke chamber and into, or beyond the first
flue tile.
Check with your local authority having jurisdiction to
determine if this venting method is acceptable. Some
Provincial, State, or Local codes may require a full
liner run to the top of the chimney. Be sure and check
your local regulations before planning the installation.
In this method, the proper flashing and rain cap are
also required.

The image at left shows the use of the chim-
ney for outside air supply. Also shown is the
Chimney intake extension on the top of the
chimney. It is slotted to allow fresh air into
the flue. Be sure to use the proper flashing
and vent cap to prevent rain from entering the
chimney flue.
The image below demonstrates bringing the
outside air in through a hole cut through the
rear of the fireplace and external wall. With
this method, a screen is necessary to prevent
birds or rodents from entering.
A. Outside Air Attachment
Outside Air Kit #1-00-774280 (sold separately) must
be used for attaching outside air to the insert. This kit
contains a 3" stub and gasket to mount to the frame,
and the outside air adapter which secures to the insert
body. The outside air intake connection will seal to the
mounting frame, just like the exhaust does. Follow the
instructions included in the kit to ensure proper instal-
lation.
1. Make a determination of where you want to draw
the outside air from. Here are a few options.
a. Punch a hole through the rear of the
fireplace and exterior wall. Rigid pipe or flex
pipe could be used.
b. Use the chimney or chase as a conduit for
outside air. The exhaust liner must be run
the full length of the flue. When creating
your steel plate to seal the damper area,
Make another 3 inch hole for the outside air
pipe. Install a short run of pipe from the

The surround consists of three panels, the top and
two sides. Follow these steps for installation:
1. Remove the insert body from the mounting frame;
2. Start your leveling bolts into the floor of the frame
and adjust to slightly raise the height.(see next
section) This will allow some clearance to
assemble the surround.
3. Prepare the side panels by removing three nuts
each. The left side panel is the one with the control
board opening. If mounting the control door, the
hinge bracket will attach using the control panel
mounting screws.

C. Routing the Power Cord
When choosing an electrical supply outlet, be sure
the polarity is correct, and that the supplied voltage is
within the range of 117 to 123 Volts. Surge protection
is also recommended to protect the control board
software in the event of a surge or spike.
Once the outlet location is decided, you'll need to

D. Securing the Mounting Frame
The mounting frame is the anchor for the appli-
ance. If the frame is not secured properly, shifting
will occur when sliding the insert in or out.
There are four (4) holes located as shown, that are
threaded for 5/16 - 18 bolts. Thread the bolts down
through the holes to raise the frame corners as
needed, to level.
E. Attaching the Venting
NOTE: When installed in a rear vent configuration, the maximum BTU
may be reduced due to elevated ESP temperatures associated with the
horizontal exhaust stream.
The flue collar on the rear of the mounting frame is
designed to pivot. Loosen the four mounting bolts
and adjust the angle of the collar as needed. Shown
above is the vertical position and the horizontal
position. Be sure the fiber gasket remains in place
between the collar and the mounting frame, and
secure the bolts. Secure the first section of venting
to the collar with a minimum of two fasteners. Self-
drilling screws will work well for this. Once the
venting is secured and the seams are sealed, it is
recommended that you wrap the vent pipe with a
non-combustible insulation to prevent overheating of
the motors and other appliance components. This is
required (and supplied) when using the optional Zero
Clearance Cabinet.
The mounting frame is the anchor for the appli-
ance. If the frame is not secured properly, shifting
will occur when sliding the insert in or out.
Most importantly, the frame must be level. Again, be
certain that the surround is not supporting the weight.
Turn the leveling screws in until there is a slight gap
beneath the surround panels.
Here are a few different ways to anchor the mounting
frame.
On the sides of the frame, there are a few holes which
can be used to attach metal straps. These straps
can be anchored into the
fireplace using masonry
anchors. You could also
use any of the unused
Straps could

holes in the bottom of the
frame to install anchors
and lag bolts. Another
option involves using kit #
1-00-774279. Here, you will
mount plates to the frame.
These plates have coupling
nuts welded to them. The
kit also includes two pieces
of 1/2" all thread, which threads into the coupling nuts.
These can be used to tighten upward against the lintel
until the unit is secure.

F. Installing the Body into the
Mounting Frame
The rollers on the sides of the insert body will ride on
the rails of the mounting frame. Once the body is all
the way in, hook and close the top spring latches on
each side to secure.
Room sensor placed here gives an accurate measure of return air.
Push the pre-cut hole inward, and feed the sensor from the back
side. Allow the bulb of the sensor to extend approximately 1½
inches into the room. Use a wire tie on the push-in tab to secure
the sensor wire.
H. Room Sensor Installation
Although not required, it is recommended that the
room sensor be connected in every installation. Using
a minimum size 18 gauge wire, you may splice in an
additional length, to extend the room sensor. The fol-
lowing are typical locations for the room sensor;
G. Control Board Installation
The control board is packaged in a static resistant
bag. Use care when handling, hold the circuit board
only by the edges. In a large fireplace opening, you
may have plenty of space for the circuit board to re-
main attached. For a smaller fireplace opening, you'll
likely need to remove the wiring from the circuit board
to route it through the side of the mounting frame and
out through the control opening. Follow these steps;
•
•
•
On an interior wall next to or in place of a typical
wall thermostat.
On the leg of a coffee table or end table in your
favorite sitting location.
Sticking out through the punched hole at the lower
right corner of the control panel.
•
•
•
Disconnect the 11 pin harness plug.
Disconnect the red twisted ESP wire.
Feed the harness wires and the ESP wire through
the opening in the mounting frame and out
through the control opening in the surround panel.
Holding the control board outside the opening in
the surround panel, re-attach the harness plug
and the ESP wire.
After determining the location of the Room Sen-
sor (See next Section), Attach it to the two male
spade terminals near the top of the circuit board.
Note: When installing the room sensor externally,
limit the distance from the stove to 25 feet or less.
•
•
Once the location has been decided, run the wiring to
the control panel. You'll need to remove the two ter-
minals from the end of the sensor cable and replace
them with the two smaller terminals from the hardware
bag. Plug the terminals into the circuit board. These
connections are not polarity specific.
NOTE: These connections are not polarity specific.
Note: If the room sensor is located too close to
the appliance, or in a direct path of the distribu-
tion air, You may need to elevate the temperature
setting to maintain a comfortable temperature
level throughout the heated space.
•
From the power cord, attach the green ground
wire to the grounding post located on the feeder
air intake snout.
•
•
•
•
The black wire from the power cord gets attached
to the short brown wire from the control harness
The white wire from the power cord will attach to
the short white wire on the control harness.
Install the control panel into the surround; Right
side first, then tilt in the left side.
See Draft Test Procedure on Page 26.
Secure using the four black machine screws in-
cluded with the surround.

Shelled Field Corn- Corn is approved for use as
a fuel ONLY when mixed with pellets. The tested
mixture is up to 50% corn. Since corn is grown as
a feed source, and not as a fuel, there are many
possible inconsistencies with regards to burning.
Because of this, you may not be successful with
the maximum mixture, and may need to reduce
the percentage of corn in the mix. Corn should
have a moisture content of 15% or less. Corn for
burning should be clean and free of debris, stalks
and pieces of cob.
A. Fire Safety
You can never be too cautious when it comes to fire
safety. Please give serious consideration to the follow-
ing:
•
•
•
•
•
Install at least one smoke detector and CO detec-
tor on each level of the home.
Locate detectors away from the appliance and
close to the sleeping quarters.
Follow the manufacturer's guidelines on placement
and installation as well as maintaining regularly.
Place a Class A fire extinguisher nearby to con-
tend with small fires.
CAUTION! Do not burn fuel that contains an addi-
tive; (such as soybean oil)
In the event of a fuel hopper fire:
•
•
Evacuate the house immediately.
Notify the Fire Department.
•
•
May cause hopper fire
Damage to product may result
Read the list of ingredients on the packaging. If you
are buying field corn, the only ingredient listed should
be field corn.
B. Fuel and Fuel Storage
Pellet fuel quality can fluctuate. This appliance is
designed to burn a wide variety of pellet fuel, giving
you the freedom to choose the most economical fuel
in your area.
Hearth & Home Technologies strongly recommends
that you choose a fuel that is recognized by the Pellet
Fuels Institute (PFI)
Pellet fuels are made from sawdust, or other wood
fibers. The source material determines the ash and
heat content. Higher ash content fuel, or Standard
Grade, may contain bark, leaves, stems, or other by-
products. Higher ash may not mean more or less heat
value, but it will require more maintenance and clean-
ing. Low ash content fuel, or Premium Grade, is made
from only the cleanest sawdust. Cleaning and mainte-
nance are greatly reduced while typically higher heat
value is experienced.
CAUTION! Risk of Chemical Poisoning!
Do NOT burn treated seed corn
•
•
Exhaust gases are toxic
Chemicals used to treat are harmful or fatal if
ingested.
•
Burning seed corn will void the product warranty.
STORAGE
Fuel should be stored in a dry area, preferably in-
doors, and well away from the appliance clearance
area.
Corn, for mixture, should be stored in a sealed con-
tainer to prevent mold growth and to deter pests. Re-
member, corn is a food source and will attract rodents
and other pests.
APPROVED FUELS
CAUTION
•
Wood Pellets- Any grade of wood or biomass pel-
letized fuel. Pellets should be either 1/4 inch or
5/16 inch (6 - 8mm) in diameter, and no more than
1½" (38mm) in length.
Tested and approved for use with wood pellets
and a mixture of shelled field corn and wood pel-
lets ONLY. Burning of any other fuel will void your
warranty.
WARNING
NOTICE
"NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE 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 IN USE".

C. General Operating Information
The P35i's ESP control will maintain an output level to fit your temperature demands. There are two modes of
operation; "Stove Temp" mode, where the control will maintain a specified constant temperature, regardless of
the surrounding environment temperature conditions, Or "Room Temp" mode, where the control will adjust the
rate of burn to meet a specified room temperature setting. You also have the choice of Automatic or Manual
ignition. Regardless of the mode selected, operation is controlled by both, exhaust temperature- being reported
by the ESP (Exhaust Sensing Probe), and the microprocessor circuit board.
We'll discuss these control devices and their functions now.
ESP Location
1. ESP (Exhaust Sensing Probe)
The ESP is a tiny thermistor located in the exhaust stream. The probe chang-
es it's thermal resistance based on minute changes in temperature, which is
monitored by the circuit board and used to determine the need for changes in
the burn rate to meet the temperature demand.
2. Circuit Board
As stated previously, the circuit board is a microprocessor, which means it
has the ability to "think" and adjust itself based on both, reported tempera-
tures and demand temperature. The circuit board will also flash a code se-
quence on the Status light if an error is detected.

the feed adjuster dial is the maximum amount of feed
time, per minute, that you'll allow.
This is marked in Fahrenheit scale from 50 to 90 de-
grees. In Stove-Temp mode, you select a temperature
setting based on the #1 - 7 with 1 being a minimum
burn and 7 being a maximum burn rate.
The circuit board will make its own determination of
how long to run the feeder, UP TO the maximum, as
set on the dial. For instance, a number 4 setting on
the feed adjuster will allow a maximum of 40 seconds
per minute of feed. If the room temperature is satis-
fied, with only feeding 20 seconds, then that is all the
circuit board will run the feeder. When heating a large
area, the number 4 setting is usually adequate, how-

Always allow a minimum of fifteen minutes between
making any adjustments to the feed rate.
switch. Select from either AUTOMATIC or MANUAL.
AUTOMATIC- Will automatically start the fire in either
STOVE TEMP or ROOM TEMP mode.
Note: Since the circuit board is feeding as needed,
only adjust the feed rate while maximum demand
is occurring. (Stove Temp Mode, with a temp dial
setting of #7 will create maximum demand.)
sTOvE TEmp: The ignition mode will start the
fire one time only. Since STOVE TEMP maintains a
constant output, the fire will never go out to need re-
ignited.
ROOm TEmp: The ignition mode will start the
first fire. Then, if the room temperature is satisfied,
the fire will go out. Once the room cools, the ignition
mode will start another fire, and so on. This mode
provides fully automatic temperature control.
MANUAL- The fire must be started manually using
starting gel or other manufactured fire starter.
b. Mode Selection
Room-Temp mode is the ideal mode of operation if
you wish to maintain a comfortable temperature in
the room. As the outdoor temperature fluctuates, the
control will adjust the feed rate to maintain the desired
temperature setting in the room. For best results,
be sure the room sensor is located away from drafty
areas and not positioned on the floor or near an exte-
rior wall.
MANUAL- With the igniter switch in the MANUAL
position, the igniter is disabled.
sTOvE TEmp: The fire would need to be
started manually, and will maintain a constant output
based on the temperature setting.
ROOm TEmp: The fire would need to be
started manually. The control will adjust output to
maintain a constant room temperature, however it will
not allow the fire to go out. If the room temperature is
satisfied, the control will adjust to the minimum burn
rate and hold there until the room temperature de-
creases.
Stove-Temp mode is more of a manual method of
operation. The stove will run at a constant heat output,
regardless of surrounding air temperature. Note that
on the coldest days, your indoor heated space will be
cooler than on the warmer days. The only real benefit
to this mode of operation is that you'll be able to know
exactly how long a hopper full of fuel will last, because
the consumption is going to stay relatively the same.

1. With the mode selector in the "OFF" position, and
the Feed Adjuster NOT on "Test", plug the power
cord into a properly grounded receptacle.
An added feature for those times when you'd like to
unwind watching a fire but yet do not want all the heat.

the distribution blower
will begin to operate.
6. After the initial feed cycle is typically when you'll
begin to see sparks, smoke, or flames.
Keep Hopper Lid, Ash Pan, and Fire viewing doors
closed while in operation. Maintain all door seals
and gaskets in good condition. Replace gaskets
when necessary using parts obtained through
your Harman dealer.
H. Maintaining the Fire
Once the Distribution Blower begins operation, your
fire is well established. Now, you can make any
desired adjustments to the temperature dial. Remem-
ber, in STOVE TEMP, the temperature dial uses the
inner portion of the scale (#1 thru 7). In ROOM TEMP,
select the desired temperature in Fahrenheit from 50
to 90 degrees.
J. Shut-Down
During operation in ROOM TEMP/ AUTOMATIC
mode, the appliance will shut down naturally when
demand is met or exceeded. In other modes of opera-
tion, the unit will shut-down only if or when it runs out
of fuel.
The flames should appear brisk and bright. If you see
deep orange and lazy flames, it is usually an indica-
tion that the burn pot needs to be cleaned. Refer to
the Maintenance Section of this manual.
To kill or stop a fire, turn the mode selector dial to
"OFF". The shut down cycle will slow or stop the
feeder to gradually cool the fire and ensure that all of
the exhaust gases are safely expelled before stopping
the combustion blower. This not only ensures removal
of all smoke and gases, it also keeps the fire from at-
tempting to travel into the fuel storage hopper. For this
reason; Hearth & Home Technologies recommends
installing a battery back-up in areas where frequent
power outages are experienced. (Also see page13)

Soot- Formation and Need For Removal-
When wood is burned, the products of combustion
combine with moisture to form a soot residue which
accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited, this
soot makes an extremely hot fire. The entire venting
system should be inspected at least once every two
months during the heating season to determine if a
soot buildup has occurred. If soot has accumulated,
it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney
fire.
If you experience a chimney fire; Turn the control
to "Off". Keep appliance doors and hopper lid closed
and latched. Notify the fire department. Do not oper-
ate the appliance until the chimney and connector
have been inspected and approved by a chimney
professional.
A. Shut-down Procedure
The best way to shut down the appliance is to simply
let it run out of fuel, and shut down naturally as the
temperature cools. This method is highly recommend-
ed for the end of season shut-down.
To shut-down otherwise, turn the mode selector to
"OFF' verify by ensuring that the Status light goes out.
The shut-down protocol of the circuit board will safely
allow the fire to go out. All motors will stop when cool,
and only the POWER light will remain lit. It is now safe
to un-plug the electrical supply.
CAUTION! shOCK AND smOKE hAZARD!
Proper Shut-down procedure must be followed.

C. General Maintenance Procedures
1. Burn Pot Grate Cleaning
•
•
Frequency: Daily to Weekly *
By: User
Wear Leather Gloves To Prevent Skin Burns!
This procedure can be done with a fire burning. It is
recommended that you turn the temperature dial down
approximately one half hour before to allow some
cooling of the fire.
Open the front door by lifting upward on the latch
handle, then swing the door open. Using the scraper
tool provided with your appliance, scrape any
cool or spent ashes from in front of the fire off
the front of the grate to the ash pan. Next,
scrape downward into the burn pot,
under the burning fuel to remove any
carbon deposits. Pay particular
attention to the corners on each
side of the auger, as this is
generally the first place to
see accumulation. You do
not want to scrape the fire
out of the pot, you just
want to clean the holed
surface underneath the
fire. Any loosened mate-
rial will be pushed off of
the grate into the ash
pan as burning resumes. Close the door when fin-
ished, and return your temperature dial to the desired
setting.
3. Emptying the Ash Pan

4. Disposal of Ashes
•
•
Frequency: As needed
By: User
Ashes must 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 thoroughly cooled.
Do not use the ash container for other debris or
yard waste.
2. Ash Removal From Firebox
•
Frequency: Weekly / depending on fuel and/or
ash buildup.
•
By: User
Wear Gloves To Perform
The fire MUST be out and cool for safe ash removal.
The scraper tool can be used to knock any ash accu-
mulation into the ash pan.
Frequent cleaning of ash from the firebox will help to
slow the accumulation of ash in the exhaust and vent-
ing system.

formation in the venting system.
The venting system will need to be cleaned at least
once per year, or more often depending on the quality
of the fuel being used. Horizontal sections of vent
pipe are especially prone to soot formation, as ash will
accumulate more quickly.
To replace a broken glass; first be sure to carefully
remove the broken glass and any remaining shards or
pieces. With the door laying on a flat surface, lay the
gasketted glass panel onto the door and be sure it is
properly fitted into the channel. Lay the glass retainer
clips in place near each corner, and secure them
using the 3/8" screws. Be sure to tighten each screw
equally so you don't create a pressure point on the
glass.
The chimney and venting system should be
inspected periodically throughout the heating
season to determine if a creosote buildup has
occurred. If a significant layer of creosote has
accumulated (3mm or more) it should be removed
to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.

Addendum
Minimizing Smoke During Loss of Power Using Battery Back-up
HarmanTM strongly recommends installing battery back-up to minimize entry of smoke into the
room in the event of power loss.
Your pellet/biomass burning appliance relies on a combustion blower to remove exhaust. A power failure
will cause the combustion blower to stop. This may lead to exhaust seeping into the room. Vertical rise in
the venting may provide natural draft. It is, however, no guarantee against leakage.
There are two HarmanTM approved battery back-up options for your appliance:
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) UPS battery back-ups are available online or at computer and
office equipment stores. Your HarmanTM appliance with Rev E or later software available beginning in
November 2010 may be plugged directly into a HarmanTM approved UPS:
The APC (American Power Conversion) model #BE750G and the TrippLite model
•
INTERNET750U are tested and approved. Other brands or models may not be compatible.
When power is lost, a fully charged UPS will power a safe, combustion blower only shut-down. Your
appliance will pulse the blower every few seconds to clear exhaust until the fire is out. NOTE: The UPS
provides safe shut-down only. It is not intended for continued operation.
Your appliance will recognize when power is restored. What happens depends on ESP temperature and
whether it is equipped with automatic ignition:
In “Automatic” setting, units equipped with automatic ignition will respond to the set point and
ESP temperature and resume normal operation.
•
In “Manual” setting or for units without automatic ignition:
•
If the ESP is cool, the appliance will remain shut down.
•
•
If the fire is out and the ESP is still warm, the feeder may restart. Since the fire is out, the
ESP temperature will not rise. The unit will then shut-down, and may flash a six-blink status
error. (See ESP error codes)
If the fire is still burning, it will resume normal operation.
•
Contact your dealer if you have questions about UPS compatibility with your appliance.
Harman Surefire 512H Battery Back-up The 512H connects to a 12 volt deep cycle battery that will run
your appliance for up to eight (8) hours. It includes a trickle charge feature that keeps your battery
charged when power is available. NOTE: If the power is out for longer than battery life, smoke
leakage may still occur unless your stove has been safely shut down.
CAUTION! Always keep appliance doors and hopper lid closed and latched during
operation and during power failures to minimize risk of smoke or burn-back.
CAUTION! Use only HarmanTM approved battery back-up devices. Other products may not
operate properly, can create unsafe conditions or damage your appliance.

Hearth & Home Technologies Inc.
LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
Hearth & Home Technologies Inc., on behalf of its hearth brands (”HHT”), extends the following warranty for
HHT gas, wood, pellet, coal and electric hearth appliances that are purchased from an HHT authorized dealer.
WARRANTY COVERAGE:
HHT warrants to the original owner of the HHT appliance at the site of installation, and to any transferee taking ownership
of the appliance at the site of installation within two years following the date of original purchase, that the HHT appliance
will be free from defects in materials and workmanship at the time of manufacture. After installation, if covered compo-
nents manufactured by HHT are found to be defective in materials or workmanship during the applicable warranty period,
HHT will, at its option, repair or replace the covered components. HHT, at its own discretion, may fully discharge all of its
obligations under such warranties by replacing the product itself or refunding the verified purchase price of the product
itself. The maximum amount recoverable under this warranty is limited to the purchase price of the product. This warranty
is subject to conditions, exclusions and limitations as described below.
WARRANTY PERIOD:
Warranty coverage begins on the date of original purchase. In the case of new home construction, warranty coverage
begins on the date of first occupancy of the dwelling or six months after the sale of the product by an independent,
authorized HHT dealer/ distributor, whichever occurs earlier. The warranty shall commence no later than 24 months
following the date of product shipment from HHT, regardless of the installation or occupancy date. The warranty period for
parts and labor for covered components is produced in the following table.
The term “Limited Lifetime” in the table below is defined as: 20 years from the beginning date of warranty coverage for
gas appliances, and 10 years from the beginning date of warranty coverage for wood, pellet, and coal appliances. These
time periods reflect the minimum expected useful lives of the designated components under normal operating conditions.

WARRANTY CONDITIONS:
•
This warranty only covers HHT appliances that are purchased through an HHT authorized dealer or distributor. A list of
HHT authorized dealers is available on the HHT branded websites.
•
•
This warranty is only valid while the HHT appliance remains at the site of original installation.
Contact your installing dealer for warranty service. If the installing dealer is unable to provide necessary parts, contact
the nearest HHT authorized dealer or supplier. Additional service fees may apply if you are seeking warranty service
from a dealer other than the dealer from whom you originally purchased the product.
•
Check with your dealer in advance for any costs to you when arranging a warranty call. Travel and shipping charges
for parts are not covered by this warranty.
WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS:
This warranty does not cover the following:
•
•
•
Changes in surface finishes as a result of normal use. As a heating appliance, some changes in color of interior and
exterior surface finishes may occur. This is not a flaw and is not covered under warranty.
Damage to printed, plated, or enameled surfaces caused by fingerprints, accidents, misuse, scratches, melted items,
or other external sources and residues left on the plated surfaces from the use of abrasive cleaners or polishes.
Repair or replacement of parts that are subject to normal wear and tear during the warranty period. These parts
include: paint, wood, pellet and coal gaskets, firebricks, grates, flame guides, light bulbs, batteries and the discolor-
ation of glass.
•
•
Minor expansion, contraction, or movement of certain parts causing noise. These conditions are normal and com-
plaints related to this noise are not covered by this warranty.
Damages resulting from: (1) failure to install, operate, or maintain the appliance in accordance with the installation
instructions, operating instructions, and listing agent identification label furnished with the appliance; (2) failure to
install the appliance in accordance with local building codes; (3) shipping or improper handling; (4) improper opera-
tion, abuse, misuse, continued operation with damaged, corroded or failed components, accident, or improperly/
incorrectly performed repairs; (5) environmental conditions, inadequate ventilation, negative pressure, or drafting
caused by tightly sealed constructions, insufficient make-up air supply, or handling devices such as exhaust fans or
forced air furnaces or other such causes; (6) use of fuels other than those specified in the operating instructions; (7)
installation or use of components not supplied with the appliance or any other components not expressly authorized
and approved by HHT; (8) modification of the appliance not expressly authorized and approved by HHT in writing;
and/or (9) interruptions or fluctuations of electrical power supply to the appliance.
•
•
•
Non-HHT venting components, hearth components or other accessories used in conjunction with the appliance.
Any part of a pre-existing fireplace system in which an insert or a decorative gas appliance is installed.
HHT’s obligation under this warranty does not extend to the appliance’s capability to heat the desired space. Informa-
tion is provided to assist the consumer and the dealer in selecting the proper appliance for the application. Consider-
ation must be given to appliance location and configuration, environmental conditions, insulation and air tightness of
the structure.
This warranty is void if:
•
The appliance has been over-fired or operated in atmospheres contaminated by chlorine, fluorine, or other damaging
chemicals. Over-firing can be identified by, but not limited to, warped plates or tubes, rust colored cast iron, bubbling,
cracking and discoloration of steel or enamel finishes.
•
•
The appliance is subjected to prolonged periods of dampness or condensation.
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.
LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY:
•
The owner’s exclusive remedy and HHT’s sole obligation under this warranty, under any other warranty, express or
implied, or in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be limited to replacement, repair, or refund, as specified above. In no
event will HHT be liable for any incidental or consequential damages caused by defects in the appliance. Some states
do not allow exclusions or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so these 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
EXPRESSED WARRANTY SPECIFIED ABOVE.
