Blower - Jøtul C 350 Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

Jøtul C 350 Winterport
It is also important to remember that chimney
size, temperature and height all affect draft which in
turn affects the formation of creosote. An exterior
chimney, whether masonry or prefabricated steel,
will be exposed to cold outside temperatures, and
consequently, will be more prone to creosote
accumulation than an interior flue.
A chimney flue located within the home interior
will benefit from the insulating characteristics of
the building itself. Consequently, the flue system
will be less conducive to condensation of unburned
gases and minimal creosote accumulation will
result. .
As a general rule, try to avoid burning the insert
at the lowest air control settings. Although a low
setting will prolong burn time, it may also result in
incomplete combustion. In reducing the fire inten-
sity, draft is weakened and the chimney flue cools.
This, together with the increase in unburned gases,
leads to rapid creosote accumulation.
Blower Operation
Access the blower control panel by lifting the cast
iron lower grille up off the insert.
The dual blowers will enhance heat circulation
around the firebox and out into the room. In the
A A A A A ut ut ut ut utoma oma oma omatic oma tic tic tic setting, the blowers are controlled by a tic
heat activated switch (snapstat) that will only
function when the speed control is ON. After the fire
has been burning for a time, the snapstat will react
to the heat and activate the blowers. Conversely,
the blower will continue to operate until the
snapstat cools as the fire wanes. The blowers will
then shut off automatically.
The Manual Manual Manual Manual Manual setting overides the snapstat
functionality allowing blower operation regardless
of temperatures.
For best performance, do not turn the switch on
until after the fire is well-established.
If the blower is not needed, place the blower
control switch in the OFF position.
