service agency or the gas supplier.
1. DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING
ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
2. Do not connect this appliance to air ducts or any air distribu-
tion system.
3. DO NOT INSTALL A FLUE DAMPER IN THE EXHAUST VENTING
SYSTEM OF THIS UNIT.
4. Do not use class B venting intended for gas appliances as a
chimney or connector pipe on a pellet-fired appliance.
5. The minimum clearances must be maintained for all combus-
tible surfacesand materialsincluding; furniture,carpet, drapes,
clothing, wood, papers, etc. Do not store combustibles within
this clearance space (see Clearances on Pages 8 and 9).
6. INSTALLATION DISCLAIMER - It is imperative that the exhaust
venting system be installed correctly and sealed gas-tight
(not allowing exhaust to leak). Follow the vent manufacturer's
instructions for proper installation. Since IHP has no control
over the installation of your stove, IHP grants no warranty,
implied or stated for the installation or maintenance of your
stove and assumes no responsibility for any consequential
damage(s).
7. Burning any kind of fuel consumes oxygen. If outside air is
not ducted to the appliance, ensure that there is an adequate
source of fresh air available to the room where the appliance
is installed.
8. The appliance will not operate using natural draft, nor without
a power source for the blower and fuel feeding systems.
9. 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 it is in use.
10.The authority having jurisdiction such as municipal build-
ing department, fire department, fire prevention bureau, etc
should be consulted before installation to determine the need
to obtain a permit.
11.APPROVED FUEL: This appliance is designed specifically
for use only with pelletized wood pellets or a mixture of up
to 50% corn mixed with a minimum of 50% pelletized wood
pellets. This mixture of wood pellets and corn should be
evenly pre-mixed before being placed in the units hopper.
This appliance is designed and approved for the burning of
wood residue pellets with up to 2% ash content. This appli-
ance is NOT approved to burn cardboard, nut hulls, cherry
pits, etc. regardless if it is in pellet form. Failure to comply
with this restriction will void all warranties and the safety
listing of the stove. Consult with your IHP dealer for more
information on approved pellet fuels.
12.These appliances are designed as supplemental heaters.
Therefore, it is advisable to have an alternate heat source
when installed in a dwelling.
13.CONTINUOUS OPERATION: When operated correctly, this
appliance cannot be overfired. Continuous operation at a
maximum burn can, however, shorten the life of the electri-
cal components (blowers, motors and electronic controls)
and is not recommended. Typical approved operation would
include running at the low tomid range setting with occasional
running on the maximum setting during the coldest periods
of the winter. DO NOT OVER-FIRE THIS STOVE. Follow all
instructions regarding the proper use of this stove.
14.CAUTION: NEVER PUT FINGERSNEAR AUGER. This appliance
is equipped with a hopper lid switch, which is designed to stop
the auger when the hopper lid is opened. NEVER DISCONNECT
OR BYPASS THIS SWITCH FOR ANY REASON. Pellet fuel is fed
to the Burn-Pot by a screw auger. This auger is driven by a
high torque motor. The auger is capable of causing serious
harm to fingers. Keep pellets in the hopper at all times and
keep fingers away from auger. The auger can start and stop
automatically at any time while the stove is running.
15.CAUTION:HOTWHILE INOPERATION. Anappliance hotenough
to warm your home can severely burn anyone touching it.
Keep children, pets, clothing and furniture away. Contact may
cause skin burns. Do not let children touch the appliance.
Train them to stay a safe distance from the appliance.
16.FLY ASH BUILD-UP: For all wood pellet fuel-burning heaters,
the combustion gases will contain small particles of fly-ash.
This will vary due to the ash content of the fuel being burned.
Over time, the fly-ash will collect in the exhaust venting
system and restrict the flow of the flue gases. The exhaust
venting system should be inspected regularly and cleaned
as necessary.
17.SOOT FORMATION: Incomplete combustion, such as occurs
during startup, shutdown, or incorrect operation of the room
heater will lead to some soot formation which will collect in
the exhaust venting system. A precautionary inspection on
a regular basis is advisable to determine the necessity of
cleaning. The exhaust venting system should be inspected
regularly and cleaned as necessary.
18.DISPOSAL OF ASHES: Ashes should be placed in a steel
container with a tight fitting lid and moved outdoors imme-
diately. The closed container of ashes should be placed on
a noncombustible 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.
19.The instructions must be strictly adhered to. Do not use
makeshift methods or compromise in the installation.
20.Do not abuse the door glass by striking, slamming or similar
trauma. Do not operate the stove with the glass removed,
cracked or broken.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.
PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
WARNING
Check all local building and safety codes before
installation. The installation instructions and appro-
priate code requirements must be followed exactly
and withoutcompromise. Alterations tothe stoveare
not allowed. Do not connect the stove to a chimney
system serving another stove, appliance, or any air
distribution duct. Failure to follow these instructions
will void the manufacturers warranty.
The installation of this appliance must conform to local codes and appli-
cable state and federal requirements. Familiarity with these requirements
before installation is essential. Important considerations to discuss with
local building officials include:
1. Applicable codes (i.e. Uniform Mechanical Code, State or Regional
Codes).
Electrical codes:
In USA, NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70 – Latest Edition
In Canada, CSA C22.1 – Latest Edition
2. Local amendments
3. Is a permit required - cost. You may wish to contact your insurance
company to ask if they require this.
4. If outside combustion air is required
5. Rooms where the installation is not allowed
Power Supply Requirements
The power cord must be plugged into a standard, 120 volt, 60 Hz grounded
electrical outlet. The power supply cord must be routed to avoid contact
with any of the hot or sharp exterior surface areas of the stove. When
installed in a manufactured home, the appliance must be electrically
grounded to the steel chassis of the manufactured home (see Page 13,
Manufactured Home Requirements for additional requirements). These
requirements must be met unless otherwise specified by state or local
authorities.

• Normaloperatingwattageis300.
Electrical Generator Operation
Your Winslow™ PS40 stove can be powered with a gas driven electrical
generator. However,the generator’selectrical regulator maynot becompat-
ible with the stove’s electronics. The higher the quality of the generator,
the greater the chance that it is compatible with the stove.
Questions To Ask Local Building Official
A correct installation is critical and imperative for reducing fire hazards and
perilous conditions that can arise when wood pellet burning appliances
are improperly installed. The installer must follow all of the manufactur-
ers’ instructions.
WARNING
Electrical grounding instructions: This appliance is
equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for
your protection against shock hazard and should
be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-
prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the ground-
ing prong from this plug. Do not route power cord
under or in front of appliance.
Smoke Detector Recommended
Since there are always several potential sources of fire in any home, we
recommend installing smoke detectors. If possible, install the smoke
detector in a hallway adjacent to the room (to reduce the possibility of
occasional false activation from the heat produced by these appliances).
If your local code requires a smoke detector be installed within the same
room, you must follow the requirements of your local code. Check with
your local building department for requirements in your area.
Carbon Monoxide Monitor Recommended
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning: Early signs of carbon monoxide poison-
ing are similar to the flu with headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you
have these signs, obtain fresh air immediately. Some people are more
affected by carbon monoxide than others, including pregnant women,
people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the influence
of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
It is against federal regulations to operate wood heaters in a man-
ner inconsistent with operating instructions in the manual.
Surge Protectors
A surge protector is recommended to ensure the stove’s electrical com-
ponents are not damaged due to a surge in the electrical supply. Only
high quality protectors listed to UL1449 should be used - low quality
protectors do not provide the protection needed.
Installation / Maintenance Standards
National Fire Protection Association – The primary NFPA standard that
refers to installation and maintenance of pellet stoves and venting is
NFPA 211 – Latest Edition: Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel
appliances.

The design of your home and where you place your stove will determine
its value as a source of heat. This type of appliance depends primarily on
air circulation (convection) to disperse its heat, and therefore, a central
location is often best. There are other practical considerations, which
must be considered before a final selection of locations is made. Some
of which includes:
• ExistingChimneys
• PelletFuelStorage
• AestheticConsiderations
• RoofDesign(rafterlocations&roofpitch)
• RoomTrafc
• ProximitytoCombustibles

SELECTING A LOCATION
CAUTION
The body of these appliances are very heavy. The
use of a heavy duty escalara (stair step hand truck)
is recommended for lifting the appliance body.
NEGATIVE PRESSURE WARNING
This appliance is not designed to be operated in a negative pressure envi-
ronment. In very airtight homes with large kitchen exhaust fans, furnace
cold air returns, fresh air exchange systems and any other air system in
close proximity to the heating appliance may create a negative pressure
in the same room as the heating appliance. This can create dangerous
condition, drawing combustion by-products into the home. Be sure your
home has adequate makeup air to eliminate negative pressures caused
by the above-mentioned sources. Outside air connected to the appliance
probably will not resolve such a problem as the stove is not the source
of negative pressure. IHP accepts no liability for damages resulting from
negative pressures described here.
Ventilation Requirements - Provide adequate air for combustion. The
fresh air requirements of this appliancemust be met within the space where
it will be installed. Ventilation is essential when using a solid-fuel-burning
heater. In well insulated and weather tight homes, it may inhibit the rate
the exhaust flows through the venting system (caused by a shortage of
air in the home). The lack of air is caused by many common household
appliances which exhaust air from the home (such as a furnace, heat
pump, air conditioner, clothes dryer, exhaust fans, fireplaces, and other
fuel burning appliances). Also, the combustion process of this heater
uses oxygen from inside the dwelling. If the available fresh air delivery
in the dwelling is insufficient to support the demands of these appli-
ances, problems can result (i.e. excessive negative pressure will result
in performance problems. To correct this problem it may help to open
a window (preferably on the windward side of the house) or install an
outside combustion air duct to the appliance.

Wood Pellet Specifications
This appliance has been designed to burn wood residue pellets with up
to 2% ash content. Dirty fuel will adversely affect the performance of the
stove. Any questions regarding pellet fuel can be answered at the Pellet
Fuels Institute (PFI), pelletheat.org.
Pellet fuel is made from sawdust and scrap wood from many different
species of wood. Pellets are either 1/4” or 5/16” in diameter and vary in
length. The PS40 stove will burn either diameter pellets. Pellets made
from hardwoods contain more ash than those made from softwoods.
Minerals from ash and sand in the pellets form clinkers under the extreme
temperatures in the Burn-Pot. Try burning various brands of pellets until
you find one that burns with minimum ash and clinkers. Once you find
a pellet brand that burns well, continue using this brand. High ash fuel
increases the frequency of stove cleaning. Fuel with an excessive moisture
content may jam the auger assembly.
Clinkering - Silica (or sand) in the fuel, along with other impurities, can
cause clinkering. A clinker is a hard mass of silica formed in the burning
process. Clinkering is a function of the fuel, (not the stove), but adversely
affects the performance of the stove by blocking off the air passages in
the Burn-Pot. Even P.F.I. approved pellet fuel may tend to clinker. See
Maintenance for more information on cleaning.
Pellet Fuel Storage -
• Store your wood pellets in a dry place to prevent them from absorb-
ing excess moisture.
• Do Not store your wood pellets within the clearance zone of the
stove.
• Do Not store your wood pellets in a place that would block access
to refueling the hopper.
Wood pellets manufactured to the pellet fuels institute (P.F.I.) certification
standard are available in two grades, Standard and Premium. The primary
difference between the two is the ash content of the pellets.
The P.F.I. specification for standard grade and premium grade residential
and commercial pellet fuel is as follows:
• CHLORIDES (Salt): Less than 300 p.p.m. to avoid stove and vent

not included in PFI standards. For example, BTU (heat value) content
may range from just under 8,000 to almost 9,000 Btu, depending upon
species and region of the country and other variables.
Corn Fuel Specifications
Use only clean-shelled corn with a moisture content less than 15% and
approximate fuel value of 7000 BTU/lb (16,200 kJ/kg). Do not attempt
to burn corn with higher moisture content or burn lesser grade fuels.
Do not burn other types of agricultural pellets or by-products (alfalfa,
cherry pits, olive pits, nut shells, etc.) as they are not permitted to be
burned in these appliances.
Shelled corn can be burned in the PS40 pellet stove when it is mixed with
wood pellet fuel. The mixture can contain a maximum of 50 percent corn.
Burning corn may create more ash than wood pellets and may necessitate
the need to clean the Burn-Pot and glass more frequently.
Store corn in a tight container and use methods to ensure the corn does
not become rain soaked or absorb moisture from damp or wet sources.
This will also prevent rodents from becoming a problem. Do not store
corn within stove installation clearances.

HEARTH PROTECTION
VENT TERMINATION REQUIREMENTS
This appliance requires noncombustible floor protection (the hearth pad
or alternate floor protection material does not require a thermal rating).
A noncombustible floor protector must fully cover the area beneath the
appliance as illustrated in Figure9.
If the floor protection is to be stone, tile, brick, etc., it must be mortared
or grouted to form a continuous noncombustible surface. In Canada, if a
chimney connector / venting extends horizontally over the floor, protec-
tion must also cover the floor under the connector / venting and at least
2” (51 mm) to either side (recommended but not required in the US).
Minimum Size Hearth Protection
1. Do not terminate the vent in any enclosed or semi-enclosed areas
such as a carport, garage, attic, crawlspace, narrow walkway, closely
fenced area, under a sundeck or porch, or any location that can build
up a concentration of fumes such as stairwells, covered breezeway,
etc.
2. Vent surfaces can become hot enough to cause burns if touched.
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
stove is vented directly through a wall. This will create a natural draft
to prevent the possibility of smoke or odor during appliance shut
down or power failure and avoid exposing people or shrubs to high
temperatures.
4. The vent should terminate no less than four feet below, no less than
four feet horizontally from and no less than one foot above doors and
windows, or gravity/ventilation air inlets into the building.
5. The distance from the bottom of termination to grade is 12” (305 mm)
minimum unless otherwise specified by the vent manufacturer. The
distance between the bottom of the termination and a public walkway
should be a minimum of seven feet.
6. Locate the vent termination at least two feet away from combustible
materials such as shrubs, plants, grass, fences, roof overhangs and
adjacent buildings.

Venting
This stove is approved for venting with Type L and Type PL pellet vent
pipe listed to UL 641 and ULC S609. Single wall pipe cannot be used with
this pellet stove. The stove’s flue collar is 3” in diameter. An approved
wall thimble or approved ceiling firestop must be used when the pellet
pipe passes through a combustible wall or ceiling. The stove’s combus-
tion blower pressurizes and pushes flue gases out the pellet pipe. As a
result, all pipe joints should be locked together or screwed with three
screws if the pipe does not have a locking system and sealed with high
temperature silicone. The pipe should be siliconed and fastened with
three screws to the stove’s flue collar.
In Canada, where the venting may pass through a wall, or partition of
combustible materials, the installation shall conform to CAN/CSA-B365.
When installing the wall thimble and other venting components, follow
the vent manufacturers instructions. Maintain an effective vapor barrier
at the location where the chimney or other component penetrates to the
exterior of the structure.
The longer the run of pipe and the more elbows used, the greater the
resistance to the flow of flue gases. Four inch diameter pellet pipe is
recommended for pipe runs greater than 15 feet or when a number of
elbows are used.
To aid in cleaning, whenever possible, the venting system should include
a tee with clean out attached to the flue collar on the stove. Do not install
back to back elbows right off the back of the stove in any installation.
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.
Horizontal installations that terminate without any vertical sections
of pipe are approved; however, wind may direct flue gases toward the
house causing discoloring problems. For this reason, horizontal and up
5 feet or horizontal and through the eave installations are recommended.

OPERATION
Control Board
The control board regulates all functions of the stove. The following is a
list of the board’s components:
• Feeding light - lights up when the auger is feeding pellets into the
Burn-Pot.
• Ready Light - lights up when stove is ready to operate.
Igniting Light - lights up when the stove is in the ignition sequence.
• Start Button - is pushed to start the ignition sequence after the heat
selector knob is turned from off.
 HeatSelectorKnob-isturnedtoofftoshutthestoveofforturnedto
a setting from 1 to high to regulate the burn rate.
• Igniter Fuse - six amp fuse to protect igniter heating element.
• Control Fuse - three amp fuse to protect the control board.
Lighting
1. Turn the heat selector knob (see Figure42)to the heat level desired - 1
through high - and the ready light will turn green.
2. Push the start button and the ignite and feeding lights will come on
and the lighting sequence will begin. For about the next 15 minutes
the stove will feed pellets cyclically into the Burn-Pot, the combustion
blower will come on and the igniter will heat up. During this sequence,
some smoke in the firebox is to be expected. After the igniting sequence
is complete, the stove will begin burning at the level indicated by the
heat selector knob.
NOTE: Upon the stove’s initial light up, or if the stove has previously run
out of pellets, the auger feed tube may not contain a sufficient number of
pellets to allow the stove to continue burning after the ignition sequence.
It may be necessary to push the start button a second time to run the start
sequence again. It is important to always empty (when cool) the Burn-Pot
of pellets before pushing the start button a second time.
Filling the Hopper
The hopper can be accessed by lifting the lid at the rear of the top of the
stove. The hopper will hold 60 pounds of pellets. Remove any contents
from the hopper and fill with pellets as follows:
To fill the hopper when stove is off:
1. Lift the hopper lid to its full opened position.
2. Fill the hopper with pellets.
3. Check to make sure there are no remaining pellets on top of the
hopper that may prevent the hopper lid from fully closing.
4. Close Hopper lid.
To fill the hopper when stove is in operation:
1. Repeat steps 1 thru 4 above.
2. When finished, check the burn pot to assure there is substantial
combustion taking place to light the pellets once the pellets start
feeding after refueling.
3. If combustion is not present in the burn pot then the unit will need
to be restarted. This can be done by turning the heat setting dial to
off and back to the desired heat setting 1 thru 5. You will then have
to press the start button to initiate ignition.
CAUTION: Failure to confirm pellets in the Burn Pot remain
burning after re-fueling may result in smoke escaping from the
unit. Smoke escaping the unit can also be a result of ignition
of the unit with excessive pellets located inside the burn pot.
Figure42
Manual Operation
After the stove is burning (see lighting above), the heat selector knob
controls the pellet burn rate and the stove’s heat output. Turning the
knob to setting 1 allows the stove to burn about 1.8 pounds of pellets
per hour - about 8,500 BTUs per hour. Turning the knob to high allows
the stove to burn 4.7 pounds of pellets per hour - about 39,000 BTUs per
hour. Once set, the stove will continue to burn at this rate until shut off.
Thermostat Operation
This stove will operate with a low voltage thermostat. See Page 13 for
instructions on installing the thermostat. Once installed, the thermostat
will control the operation of the stove. Important: When connected to a
thermostat, it is necessary to push the ignite button for the initial burn,
when the electrical flow to the stove is interrupted, if the selector knob
is turned to off (and then back on), or if the stove runs out of pellets and
therefore shuts off. After the initial ignition sequence, when the thermostat
calls for heat (the room temperature is less than the temperature set on
the thermostat) and the heat selector knob is not in the off position, the
stove will burn at the heat selector knob setting. The higher the setting,
the quicker the room will heat up. Once the thermostat no longer calls for
heat (the room is up to the desired temperature), the stove will continue
to burn for one additional hour at the lowest setting. If the thermostat
does not call for heat again during that hour, the stove will shut off. Dur-
ing that hour, if the thermostat calls for heat again, the stove will again
burn at the heat selector knob setting until the thermostat no longer
calls for heat. If the stove shuts off after that hour it will relight when the
thermostat calls for heat.
WARNING
• Never empty pellets from the Burn-Pot into the hopper.
Pellets that may appear to be cool may retain enough
heat to ignite other pellets resulting in smoke or fire
damage.
• DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS STOVE. This may cause
serious damage to your stove and void your warranty.
It also may create a fire hazard in your home. IF ANY
EXTERNAL PART OF THE UNIT BEGINS TO GLOW, YOU
ARE OVERFIRING. Immediately slide the knob to the
"OFF" position on the control board.
