Questions

Straight answers

How do I light it?

Pour pellets into the hopper at the back, then light them by hand with fire gel or charcoal lighting fluid. As pellets burn down to ash, new fuel feeds in on its own, so the heater keeps burning for hours.

Does it need electricity?

No. There is no auger and no blower fan. Pellets feed by gravity from the hopper into the firebox, and the draft of the stove pipe pulls air up through the firepot.

What pellets should I use?

Heating pellets, not BBQ pellets. Heating pellets have no flavor additives and a higher BTU rating. Pellets rated 8,000 BTU per pound or higher work great.

What is the return policy?

You can return products bought directly from Timber Stoves within 30 days of the original ship date. Holiday orders placed Nov 19 to Dec 25 get 45 days. Items must be unused, unassembled and in the original packaging. Original and return shipping are not refundable. Bought from a dealer? Their return policy applies.

What does the warranty cover?

Timber Stoves heaters carry a 3-year warranty against defects in material and workmanship under normal use, from the date of original purchase. It does not cover the finish. Defective parts are replaced; labor and freight are not covered.
