an adjustable air shutter to control primary aeration. See figures below. The shutter is factory-set at an aeration
gap which will give optimum performance for the vast majority of installations. In a few unusual installations, flame
picture may be improved by adjusting the aeration. The need for adjustment should be determined only by operating
the appliance with the ceramic fuel effects and window installed.
Increasing aeration will cause the flame to appear more transparent and blue making the ceramic fuel effects glow
more.
Decreasing aeration will cause the flames to appear more yellow or orange making the fuel effects glow less.
Too little aeration may result in black carbon forming and dropping into the firebox.
