I. Heat Management
Heat Output
Heat output may be controlled on the SL-X-IFT series
models by adjusting the "FLAME" setting and "FAN" setting
on the remote control.
Burn Rate
The SL-X-IFT models have a variable burn rate which
is controlled by the remote control. Therefore the flame
height is adjustable.
The flame height may be adjusted as desired by locating
the flame option on the remote control and adjusting up or
down to desired flame height.
Optional Heat Management Systems
An optional heat management system, which allows the
heat from the appliance to be redirected as desired, may
be installed with this appliance. It may be either a Heat-
Zone -Gas, which diverts heat into an adjacent room,
®
and/or a Heat-Out-Gas which will divert heat outside the
home/building.
Refer to Section 6 of the appliance installation manual to
confirm which of the heat management systems may be
installed together. All heat management systems must
be installed by a qualified service technician at the time of
appliance installation.
Optional Heat-Zone-Gas Kit
The Heat-Zone-Gas heat management option is available
for use with these appliances and must be used in
conjunction with the IFT-RC400 control. The Heat-Zone-
Gas Kit draws heat from your fireplace to an adjacent
room in your home, up to 20 feet away.
Optional Heat-Out-Gas Kit
The Heat-Out-Gas heat management option is available
for use with these appliances and is operated with a
wall switch. The Heat-Out-Gas kit draws heat from your
fireplace and directs it outside, up to 25 feet away.
