R-CAST SERIES WALL FURNACE
STEP 9 - Placing the Rock Wool.
Tear the rock wool into pieces, no bigger than 1/2"
diameter, and place them over the front gas ports so
that the flame can touch the rock wool. This creates
the glowing ember look. Be sure not to pack the
rock wool against the gas ports. See Figure 23.
Figure 23 - Placing the Rock Wool
Step 10 - Adjustable Flue Restrictor
The R-Cast has an adjustable flue restrictor for maxi-
mum performance for vertical installations. The unit
is shipped with the restrictor in the open position and
should be left open with any horizontal installations.
By turning the bolt in the firebox to the right (tighten)
and sliding, the restrictor will close. See Figure 24.
The amount to close the restrictor will depend on the
flue height.
If the vertical height is 20 feet or more, the restrictor
can be closed all the way. Anything less will require
some setting less than closed. That setting will vary
depending on the installation.
Any offsets in a vertical installation will restrict the
system and the flue restrictor will not need to be
closed as much.
