Auxiliary Convection Air System; Outside Air - Quadra-Fire 7100FP-GD-B Owner's Manual

3. Auxiliary Convection Air System

If the auxiliary duct has been installed and the lever
lock was removed, moving the lever to the RIGHT will
bring air into the bottom of the fireplace from the duct
and put it into the room as heated air.
Moving the lever all the way to the LEFT will cause
the room air to be pulled into the bottom grille of the
fireplace and re-circulated into the room as heated air.
NOTICE: If you live in an area with very cold winter
months, you will want to use room air as opposed to
bringing in extremely cold air from outside of the home.
This will eliminate creating a draft of cold outside air
infiltrating your home. Definitely keep the lever to the
LEFT when not using the fireplace.

4. Outside Air

NOTICE: Use of outside air is required.
A source of air (oxygen) is required in order for com-
bustion to take place.
Turning the outside air handle clockwise opens the out-
side air inlet; turning counterclockwise will close it. This
may be closed only when the fireplace is not in use to
prevent cold air infiltration.
CAUTION! Outside air control handle may be warm.
Adjust before lighting fire.
