Introduction
Pellet Quality:
Your enviro pellet stove has been designed to burn wood pellets only. Do not use any other
type of fuel, as this will void any warranties stated in this manual.
The performance of your pellet stove is greatly affected by the type and quality of wood
pellets being burned. As the heat output of various quality wood pellets differs, so will the
performance and heat output of the pellet stove.
Caution: It is important to select and use only pellets that are dry and free of dirt or any impurities
such as high salt content. Dirty fuel will adversely affect the operation and performance of the unit
and will void the warranty. The Pellet Fuel Industries (P.F.I.) has established standards for wood pellet
manufacturers. We recommend the use of pellets that meet or exceed these standards. Ask your dealer
for a recommended pellet type.
P.F.I. PELLET STANDARDS:
ASH: The ash content of the fuel and operation of your stove will directly determine the frequency of
cleaning. The use of high ash fuels may result in the stove needing to be cleaned daily. A low ash fuel
may allow longer intervals between cleaning.
CLINKERING: [clinkers are silica (sand) or other impurities in the fuel that will form a hard mass during
the burning process]. This hard mass will block the air flow through the Burn Pot Liner and affect the
performance of the stove. Any fuel, even approved types, may tend to clinker. Check the Burn-Pot Liner
daily to ensure that the holes are not blocked with clinkers. If they become blocked, remove the liner
(when the unit is cold) and clean/scrape the clinkers out. Clean the holes with a small pointed object if
required. Refer to the section Routine Cleaning and Maintenance.
PELLET FEED RATES: Due to different fuel densities and sizes, pellet feed rates may vary. This may
require an adjustment to the slider damper setting or to the auger feed trim setting on low.
Since Sherwood Industries Ltd. has no control over the quality of pellets that you use, we assume no
liability for your choice in wood pellets.
Freestanding: The rating label is located on the inside of the hopper lid.
Insert: The rating label is located on the hopper cover.

Introduction
Important Safety Data:
Please read this entire Owners Manual before installing or operating your ENVIRO Pellet
Stove. Failure to follow these instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury
or even death. Contact your local building or fire official to obtain a permit and any information on
installation restrictions and inspection requirements for your area.
To prevent the possibility of a fire, ensure that the appliance is properly installed by adhering to the
installation instructions. An ENVIRO dealer will be happy to assist you in obtaining information with
regards to your local building codes and installation restrictions.
Be sure to maintain the structural integrity of the home when passing a vent through walls, ceilings, or
roofs.
The stoves exhaust system works with negative combustion chamber pressure and a slightly positive
chimney pressure. It is very important to ensure that the exhaust system be sealed and airtight. The ash
pan and viewing door must be locked securely for proper and safe operation of the pellet stove.
Do not burn with insufficient combustion air. A periodic check is recommended to ensure proper
combustion air is admitted to the combustion chamber. Setting the proper combustion air is achieved by
adjusting the slider damper located on the left side of the stove.
When installing the stove in a mobile home, it must be electrically grounded to the steel chassis of the
home and bolted to the floor. Make sure that the structural integrity of the home is maintained and all
construction meets local building codes.
Minor soot or creosote may accumulate when the stove is operated under incorrect conditions such as an
extremely rich burn (black tipped, lazy orange flames).
If you have any questions with regard to your stove or the above-mentioned information, please feel free
to contact your local dealer for further clarification and comments.
FUEL: This pellet stove is designed and approved to only burn wood pellet fuel with up to 3% ash
content. Dirty fuel will adversely affect the operation and performance of the unit and may void the
warranty. Check with your dealer for fuel recommendations.
SOOT: Operation of the stove with insufficient combustion air will result in the formation of soot which
will collect on the glass, the heat exchanger, the exhaust vent system, and may stain the outside of the
house. This is a dangerous situation and is inefficient. Frequently check your stove and adjust the slider/
damper as needed to ensure proper combustion. See: Slider/Damper Setting.
CLEANING: There will be some build up of fly ash and small amounts of creosote in the exhaust. This
will vary due to the ash content of the fuel used and the operation of the stove. It is advisable to inspect
and clean the exhaust vent semi-annually or every two tons of pellets.

Introduction
ASHES: Disposed ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container
of ashes should be on a non-combustible floor 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 dispensed, they
should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled.
ELECTRICAL: The use of a surge protected power bar is recommended. The unit must be
grounded. The grounded electrical cord should be connected to a standard 115 volts (3.9 Amps), 60
hertz electrical outlet. Be careful that the electrical cord is not trapped under the appliance and that it is
clear of any hot surfaces or sharp edges and also must be accessible. If this power cord should become
damaged, a replacement power cord must be purchased from the manufacture or a qualified ENVIRO
dealer. The EF2s maximum power requirement is 450 watts.
GLASS: Do not abuse the glass by striking or slamming the door. Do not attempt to operate the stove
with broken glass. The stove uses ceramic glass. Replacement glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO
dealer. Do not attempt to open the door and clean the glass while the unit is in operation or if glass is
hot. To clean the glass, use a soft cotton cloth and mild window cleaner, gas or wood stove glass cleaner,
or take a damp paper towel and dip into the fly ash. This is a very mild abrasive and will not damage the
glass.
FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS: Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter
fluid, or similar liquids to start or freshen up a fire in the heater. Keep all such liquids well away from
the heater while it is in use.
SMOKE DETECTOR: Smoke detectors should be installed and maintained in the structure when
installing and operating a pellet burning appliance.
OPERATION: The ash pan and door must be closed securely for proper and safe operation of the pellet
stove. Also ensure all gaskets on the door are checked and replaced when necessary.
INSTALLATION: Be sure to maintain the structural integrity of your home when passing a vent through
walls, ceilings, or roofs. It is recommended that the unit be secured into its position in order to avoid any
displacement.
DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
FRESH AIR: Outside Fresh Air connection is optional. Must be connected to all units installed in Mobile
and Air Tight Homes (R2000) or where required by local codes. Consider all large air moving devices
when installing your unit and provide room air accordingly. Limited air for combustion may result in poor
performance, smoking and other side effects of poor combustion.
If you have any questions with regards to your stove or the above-mentioned information, please feel
free to contact your local dealer for further clarification and comments.
Slider/Damper Setting:
This is used to regulate the airflow through the pellet stove. A Qualified Service
Technician or Installer should mark the slider rod in the current settings.
SPECIAL NOTES:
LOW: Push

Pellet quality is a major factor in how the Pellet stove will operate. If the pellets have
slightly in. a high moisture content or ash content the fire will be less efficient and has a higher
possibility of the fire building up and creating clinkers (hard ash build-up).
If the fire should happen to go out and the Dial-A-Fire has been set on the lowest
setting, the Slider Damper should be pushed in slightly, decreasing the air in the
firebox or the Dial-A-Fire can be turned up slightly.
If, after long periods of burning, the fire builds up and overflows the burn pot or
there is a build up of clinkers, this would be a sign that the pellet quality is poor,
this requires more primary air, the slider damper must be pulled out to compensate.
Pulling the slider damper out gives the fire more air.

Operating Instructions
Operating Your Pellet Stove:
KNOB A: Fan Controller. By adjusting the knob you will vary the rate of airflow into the room by varying
the speed of the convection blower. When you first start the stove, it should be placed in the OFF
position in order to heat the unit as quickly as possible. Once the room has come up to temperature, the
control may be set to a comfortable level. *Note: The convection blower may cycle to high automatically
depending on the setting of KNOBS A and B. This is a normal safety feature of the unit.
KNOB B: Dia-A-Fire Heat Output Knob. This knob controls the amount of heat output. The dial has a
scale with the blue zone representing the coolest setting of the stove, and the red zone representing
the hottest setting. The scale on knob B represents a range, not exact at times or fuel quantities.
Wood pellets of differing quality may affect the performance of the stove. If the stove has trouble
operating at either end of its range, turn the heat output knob back slightly.
The AUTO/MANUAL SWITCH must be in the AUTO position during operation. To turn the stove off, simply
turn the HEAT OUTPUT knob (KNOB B) counter-clockwise until the knob clicks to the OFF position. This will stop
the feed of pellets. The blowers will continue to run and cool the stove.
SPECIAL NOTES:
If the stove is left in the manual mode after the green light comes on, the auger will continue to feed pellets. Pellets
may over flow the burn-pot after the fire goes out and also re-light.
The scale on KNOB B represents a range, not exact times. Wood pellets of differing quality
may effect the performance and/or the heat output of the stove. If the stove has trouble
operating at the end of its range, adjust the heat output knob back slightly.

Door Latch Post Season Clean-up that the appliance is operating at its optimum
and giving you excellent heat value:
BURN POT AND LINER (2-3 days)
This is the pot where the pellets are burned. The burn pot and liner should be inspected every two to
three days, to ensure proper air flow through the liner. Failure to keep the liner clean may cause
a build up of fuel past the burn pot liner and up the drop tube. This will cause the auger to
jam and may result in pellets burning in the drop tube and hopper.
Ensure the unit is cold before cleaning. To remove the burn pot and burn pot liner, open the door using
the door handle provided, located on the left-hand side of the stove. Swing the door open. Lift the
liner from the burn pot. Lift the burn pot from the firebox by gently lifting the front of the burn pot up
first, then sliding the assembly from the air intake tube and the ignitor cartridge. Using a metal scraper,
remove material that has accumulated or is clogging the liners holes. Then dispose of the scrapped ashes
from the liner and from inside the burn pot. Place the burn pot back into the stove, making sure that the
pipes are properly inserted into the burn pot and the front tabs are placed in the firebox. Place the liner
back into the burn-pot making sure that the ignitor hole in the liner is aligned with the ignitor tube. Push
the liner up against the ignitor tube.
Burn pot
If, after long periods of burning, the fire continually liner
builds up and overflows the burn pot or there is a build up Ignitor
of clinkers, this is an indication that the pellet fuel quality tube
is poor or the stove may need cleaning. Check the stove Fresh air
for ash build up (clean if required) and adjust the slider / tube Burn pot
damper to produce the proper clean combustion.

Routine Cleaning and Maintenance
ASH PAN (2-3 days)
Monitor the ash level every week. Remember that different pellet fuels will have different ash contents.
Ash content is a good indication of fuel efficiency and quality. Dump the ashes into a metal container
stored away from combustibles. Refer to Warnings and Recommendations for disposal of ashes. DO
NOT PLACE UNBURNED OR RAW PELLET FUEL IN ASH PAN.
Vacuum the ash pan and inside the pedestal. CAUTION: BECAUSE THE FLY ASH IS VERY FINE, THE USE
OF A FINE FILTER VACUUM BAG WILL BE REQUIRED TO PREVENT ASH FROM BEING BLOWN BACK
INTO THE ROOM. Please pay special attention that there are no hot ashes in the firebox or there could
be a possibility of a fire hazard inside the vacuum cleaner. Place all hot ashes into a non-combustible
container.
FREESTANDING ASH PAN:
The EF2 pellet stove freestandings ash pan is located under the burner, in the pedestal, and has a
latching mechanism to secure it. To remove the ash pan, unlock the latch on the ash pan and then
pull the pan out.

breezeway, etc. Figure 16: Use in conjunction with Table 1 for allowable exterior vent termination
locations.
2. Vent surfaces can become
hot enough to cause burns if touched by children. Non-combustible shielding or guards may be required.
3. Termination must exhaust above the inlet elevation. It is recommended that at least five feet of vertical pipe be
installed outside when the appliance is vented directly through a wall, to create some natural draft to prevent the
possibility of smoke or odor during appliance shut down or power failure. This will keep exhaust from causing a
nuisance or hazard from exposing people or shrubs to high temperatures. In any case, the safest and preferred
venting method is to extend the vent through the roof vertically.
4. Distance from the bottom of the termination and grade is 12 (30 cm) minimum. This is conditional upon the
plants and nature of grade surface. The exhaust gases are hot enough to ignite grass, plants and shrubs located
in the vicinity of termination. The grade surface must not be lawn.
5. If the unit is incorrectly vented or the air to fuel mixture is out of balance, a slight discoloration of the exterior
of the house might occur. Since these factors are beyond the control of Sherwood Industries Ltd, we grant no
guarantee against such incidents.
NOTE: Venting terminals shall not be recessed into walls or siding.

10. The pipe must extend at least 12 (30 cm) away from the building. If necessary, bring another length
of pipe (PL type) to the outside of the home to connect to the first section. Do not forget to place
high temperature silicone around the pipe that passes through the thimble.
11. Install a vertical pipe, or if all requirements for direct venting are met, install vent termination. The
stainless steel cap termination manufactured by the vent manufacturer is recommended. However,
when the vent terminates several feet above ground level and there are no trees, plants, etc. within
several feet, a 45 elbow can be used as termination. The elbow must be turned down to prevent
rain from entering.
NOTE:
Some horizontal through wall installations may require a T and 3 to 5 feet (91 to 152 cm) of vertical
pipe outside the building to help naturally draft in the unit.
This may be required if a proper burn cannot be maintained, after the stove has been tested and the
airflow set.
This is due to the back pressure in the exhaust caused by airflow around the structure.
All sections of pipe must have three (3) screws evenly spaced and all horizontal and vertical vent
sections located within the house must have a bead of high temperature silicone installed on the male
end of the pipe before installation to create a gas tight seal.
Through Wall With Vertical Rise and Horizontal Termination Installation - Freestanding:
A 45 elbow with a rodent screen may be used in place of the termination cap (or stainless steel
termination hood).
Figure 24 is the recommended installation set up.

Troubleshooting
DO NOT:
Switch the stove On and OFF rapidly. This may cause current spikes, which could shorten the life of the
electrical components.
Service the stove with wet hands. The stove is an electrical appliance, which may pose a shock hazard
if handled improperly. Only qualified technicians should deal with possible internal electrical failures.
Remove any screws in the firebox without first lubricating them with penetrating oil.
WHAT TO DO IF:
1. The stove will not start.
2. The stove will not light
3. The stove will not function in the AUTO mode when hot.
4. The exhaust blower will not function normally.
5. The convection blower will not function normally.
6. Everything else in the stove operates but the ignitor will not light the pellets
7. The auger motor does not function normally.
8. The Dial-A-Fire has no effect on the fire.
9. The stove will not shut off.
10. The stove keeps going out.
Make sure the stove is plugged in and the wall outlet is supplying power.
Push the AUTO/MANUAL switch to MANUAL. If the stove fails to start, unplug the unit and open the
hinged side panels (held tight with (2) two screws).
With the stove unplugged, examine all connections. Make sure they are firmly connected and that
there are no exposed wires touching the stove (except the green chassis ground wire).
Check the continuity and placement of connections against the Wiring Diagram in this manual.
Attempt to bypass the switch by inserting a jumper wire between the dual black wires (middle of the
switch) and the single grey wire (left side of the stove) that attach to the back of the switch. Plug the
stove back in. If the stove starts, replace the switch.
Check the ignitor by removing the burn pot liner when the unit is cold.
Push the AUTO/MANUAL switch to MANUAL.
Observe the ignitor in the small tube to see if it glows within three (3) minutes then return the switch
to the AUTO position.
If the ignitor does not come on, open the right hand side panel, remove the convection blower (held
in by two (2) bolts) and check connections of the harness then by-pass the 120F (49C) (N/C)
temperature sensor.
Push switch to manual to see if the ignitor will heat up.
If the ignitor fails to come on, have your dealer or a qualified service technician replace the ignitor.
If the ignitor comes on when the 120F (49C) is by-passed, replace the 120F (49C) (N/C)
sensor.
27
Troubleshooting
3. The stove will not function in the AUTO mode when hot.
If the unit fails to operate, by-pass the auto side of the switch by inserting a jumper wire between the
dual black wires and the dual brown wires located on the back of the switch. Plug the stove back in.
If the stove operates, replace the switch.
Check the hopper for fuel.
Incorrect air damper setting - Excessive air may consume the fire too quickly before the next drop of
fuel, leaving completely unburned fuel in the burn pot liner. Insufficient air will cause build up, further
restricting the air flow through the Burn Pot Liner. This in turn will cause the fuel to burn cold and very
slowly. Fuel may build up and smother the fire. (NOTE: Unit may require a change to the vent
system or installation of fresh air to correct Air to Fuel ratio problems).
Combustion Blower failure - The Combustion Blower is not turning fast enough to generate the proper
vacuum in the fire box. Visual Check is the blower motor turning?
Check Vacuum levels in the exhaust channel by bypassing the Vacuum Switch, then remove the
Vacuum hose from Vacuum Switch. Check exhaust vacuum readings by placing the open end of the
Vacuum Hose on a Magnahelic Gauge (readings must be above 0.10 W.C. on low fire).
Note: If the motor fails to reach a 0.10 W.C. reading, then replace the Combustion Blower.
Poor Quality Fuel Insufficient energy in the fuel to produce enough heat to keep the stove burning
or operational.
Exhaust Temperature Sensor failure Bypass sensor located on Exhaust Blower. If stove now operates
properly, the unit may require cleaning or a new sensor. Contact your local dealer for service.
The unit may require cleaning. Contact your local dealer for service.
Open the left side access panel; check all connections against the wiring diagram.
If all the connections are verified and the exhaust blower does not function at all, tap lightly on the
exhaust blowers motor end cap, this may loosen a tight motor.
Apply 115 V AC directly to the exhaust blower. If the motor does not run, replace the blower.
If the motor runs, have your dealer check the harness.
Contact your local dealer for service.
Check all the connections between the controller, switch, and the convection blower against the wiring
diagram.
If the convection motor will not run, apply 115 V AC to the motor directly. If the motor runs, replace
the fan controller. If the motor does not run, the convection blower has failed. Replace the blower.
If the convection blower runs on high at all times (no control with the fan controller), check the
connections from the 160F (71C) sensor (located on the upper left side of the firewall) and
convection fan controller to the blower. Disconnect one of the wires from the sensor; if control of the
convection blower returns to the fan controller, replace the sensor.
If the motor is still on high, re-connect the sensor and replace the convection fan controller.
28
Troubleshooting
6. Everything else in the stove operates but the ignitor will not light the pellets.
Check the burn pot liner placement, the burn pot liner should be tight against the ignitor.
Check all the electrical connections on the 120F (49C) temperature sensor located on the exhaust
channel.
Check the connections at the ignitor socket.
Place a jumper wire between the two leads on the 120F (49C) temperature sensor. If the ignitor
works, replace the sensor.
If the ignitor does not work, replace it.
NOTE: The ignitor should be bright orange in color. If not, replace the ignitor.
29
Troubleshooting
8. The dial-a-fire has no effect on the fire.
Make sure all connections to the timer control module are secure.
Perform a resistance test to the dial-a-fire potentiometer by placing the two (2) test leads from a
multimeter into the leads of the potentiometer. The potentiometer should have a range of 68K to
approximately 850 K ( 10%).
Potentiometer Readings:
Full counter-clockwise (switched off) = open circuit, overload or infinite resistance
Low fire................................800 K to 900 K
High fire...............................68 K to 82 K
If the range is not close or does not vary then replace the potentiometer.
If the stove goes out and leaves fresh unburned pellets or cigarette-like ashes in the burn pot liner, the
fire is going out before the stove shuts off.
Check to see that the Slider / Damper is in the correct position.
Turn the Dial-a-Fire up slightly (poor quality pellets will require slightly higher settings).
If the stove goes out and there are partially burned pellets left in the burn pot liner, the stove has shut
down due to a lack of air, exhaust temperature, or power failure.
Adjust the Slider / Damper.
Check to see if the stove needs a more complete cleaning.
Did the power go out?
Contact your local Dealer for service.
Turn the Dial-a-Fire up slightly (poor quality pellets will require slightly higher settings).
If the stove goes out and there are no pellets in the liner, the auger is stopping.
See The auger motor will not function normally and The exhaust blower will not function
normally.
