PELLET STOVES - AT ISSUE
With the high cost of sources of energy and the heating season upon us once again, many people are looking Towards
alternate or supplementary methods of providing warmth for themselves and their families. Passive wooit v,..-cs
(devices that need to he manually stoked) have been a favorite over theyears, both for their handsome appearance
and for their Cory supply of heat.
'The pellet stove has evolved from these earlier solid fuel burning models. Pellet stoves allow a person to fill a storage
bin that is attached to the unit with fuel. The fuel (pellet) is then auger-fed to the burn chamber at a specific ime to
keep the fire and heat roaring. This, of course, frees the person who would normally tend the fire at per lorm other
(asks, such as sit back and enjoy the flame.
The December. 1") issue of CODMORD announced the approval of certain direct vent versions of a solid fuel
horning device that uses corn as its source a fuel. Certainly, this is an innovative method for dealing with heating
issues in terms of the environment (less destruction of trees) and in terms of the costs (of wood products).
Although many pellet stoves are fueled by wcxtd products, they, toxo, can be operated with creative alternate s000ces
such as corn kernels, rice coal or even walnut shells. (I he type of stove would dictate the type of fuel.) I lowesc.r. with
innovation sometimes comes problems, m least for regulators. All new ideas are subject to improvement as lessons
are learned through operation. The test methods identi(ird in the appendices of lire building code are dcsignrd tr help
avoid expensive lessons. "Ihese tests are meant to chalicnge the operation of devices as they normally would perforin
when installed. The listing laboratory then labels the proxluct to assure the buying public that some hpc of
performance test was administered and the results were favorable. We all recognize the seal of Ilttdrl,srltcrs
laboratory (UL) as the most common marking.
When a new product such as the pellet stove is introduced to the market, testing becomes a problem. 'I he standard
tests for solid fuel burning appliances are intended to test passive devices, not actively-fed models. Alihoueh in some
respects this may not be a great concern, it docs raise at least one issue: how dues the unit respond to negative
pressure (not currently part of the required testing pro(ess). Thus, in the interest of public safety, the hoard of
Building Regulations and Standards has voted to take steps to address this matter. The following firticle details the
path that the manufacturer, consumer and building official must take when selling or installing a pellet stove in the
Commonwealth for the cited periods of time. In the future, proper testing may make much of this procedure
unnecessary. Until such time, the following action is required.

Pellet stovcs/heaters/fireplace inserts are heating appliances that burn wood pellets, but may also he designed
To burn rice coal, kernel corn, walnut shells, or other pelletized types of solid fuels. Such appliances typically
"possess numerous electro-mechanical devices that are subject to potential failure or abnormal operation.
"Because the existing Building Code requirements for solid fuel burning equipment did not anlicipale pellet
stove technology (the existing Code requirements - Section 3409 -were written some 10 to 15 years ago and
were intended to deal largely with "passive", as opposed to eleciro-mechanically "active", solid fuel burning
equipment), the State Board of Building Regulations and Standards (SBBRS) at it's December In, 1991
meeting has approved an "AFFIDAVIT PROGRAM" foreP Ilet appliances for the Fall 1991/Winter 1992
heating season.
In summary, each pellet appliance manufacturer must provide an affidavit to the S1313RS and to the
i manufacturer's sales representatives. To obtain the necessary building permit, the end-user shall provide to
the local building department a copy of the affidavit referring to the specific pellet appliance which is to be
installed.
Pellet appliances, in addition to being UL 1482 or ANSUUL 737 labeled (which have been Traditional
requirements of the Building Code for all solid fuel burning appliances - Section 3409.2) will either:
a) have been tested to ULC 5627 or ASTM draft standard E-91, revised draft 5/28/91• in a "ncizialive
pressure" environment and have demonstrated acceptable performance under such test conditions
(acceptable performance includes satisfying requirements for minimum CO release into tate test enclosure
and additionally; demonstrating that burnback into the fuel hopper does not occur for either nut mal or
abnormal operating states in a test enclosure at "negative pressure", relative to bulk air pfcssulcl:
OR
b) if not so tested, the manufacturer shall provide a carbon monoxide (CO) gas alarm with Illc sale of
the pellet appliance.

the building has bathroom, kitchen or other exhaust tans operating. Under such Conditions, a pellet appliance

Board that:
a. Special conditions and circumstances exist which especially affect the land,
building or structure involved and which are not generally affecting other
land, building or structures in the same district.
b. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve
substantial hardship, financial or otherwise,
c. Desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public
good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent of the
district or the purpose of the Ordinance.
The Board of Appeal, after careful consideration of the evidence presented at the
hearing, and after viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . The deck in question has been in existance since 1986.
2. The size of the lot creates a hardship as this is the only practical
location for the deck.
3. The deck in question allows the inhabitants a fuller use of their
property and will not be detrimental to the neighborhood.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented at the
hearing, the Board of Appeal concludes as follows:
1 . Special conditions exist which especially affect the subject property but
not the district in general.
2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve
substantial hardship to the petitioners.
3. Desirable relief can be granted without substantial detriment to the public
good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent of
the district or the purpose of the Ordinance.
