Aeration plates
The Novo has an aeration plate factory fitted either side of the unit, refer
photo. The plates are fitted in a position for flue lengths between 3-5.5 m.
Two additional plates are supplied in the accessory pack, these are for flues
between 5.6-8 m.
To control flame lift and efficiency on long flues (anything over 3 m) it's
important the aeration plates are configured correctly—refer chart below.
Aeration plate configuration
Vertical flue height
Action required
To maintain balance within the combustion chamber, it is important to fit the plates equally to
both sides. The chart shows the plates required for any given flue length. Fitting more plates than
shown may have a detrimental effect on startup performance, especially in very cold areas.
Changing the aeration plate settings
Avoid sliding the flue adapter assembly around too much when fitting. This may cause the gaskets
to be incorrectly sealed.
