4 Introduction The VF 3000 Stoker Boiler features our patented Verti-Flow™ Coal Feeder. The VF 3000 has a 5,000 to 95,000 BTUrange and 250 lb. coal hopper capacity. An aquastat is used to activate the feeder when more heat is needed to maintain the set water temperature. When the Aquastat senses the water is at the set temperature the feeder stops feeding coal. Now the Verti-flow™ Stoker Control takes over to maintain a very low fire until mor

Warnings Never sleep in the same r oom with any coal burning stove. Always empty the hopper when not burning for more than a week. When left standing for long periods with wet coal, the pusher block will rust and corrode, causing it to seize. If the stoker is then turned “on”, damage to the pusher assembly and feed motor will result. This will be considered neglect and will void the warranty on those parts. Always check to see

13 Venting existing Masonry Chimneys If you plan on using a pre-existing masonry chimney, have it thoroughly inspected and cleaned. Any faults which make the chimney unsafe and unusable must be repaired prior to use. These can include improper height, structural defects, blockages, inadequate clearance to combustibles, unsealed openings into other rooms of the house, signs of creosote or smoke leakage, a loose or absent clean-out door, or absence of a liner.
