air control

WARNING
!
• This wood appliance has a manufacturer-set minimum low burn rate that must not be altered. It is against
federal regulations in the United States to alter the setting or otherwise operate this wood appliance in a
manner inconsistent with operating instructions in this manual.
• The ajustment range should not be altered for increased firing for any reason.
Draft is the force which moves air from
the firebox up through the chimney. The
amount of draft in your chimney depends
on the length and diameter of chimney,
local geography, nearby obstructions
and other factors including the amount of
heat generated by the fire which can be
measured by an appliance thermometer.
Before adjusting the air control, install the
knob (supplied) by screwing it onto the
end of the air control rod (Fig. 6-1).
Pushing the air control all the way in
reduces the temperature. The draft can
be adjusted from low to high by moving
the handle in and out (Fig. 6-1).
Inadequate draft may cause back-puffing
into the room through the appliance and
chimney connector points and may cause
plugging of the chimney. Too much draft
may cause an excessive temperature
in the appliance, glowing red appliance
parts or chimney connectors or an
uncontrollable burn which can lead to a
chimney fire or permanent damage to the appliance.
Do not operate your appliance for longer than 30 minutes with the draft control on "HIGH" (fully open).
6.4 fire extinguishers / smoke & carbon monoxide detectors
note:
Always check your smoke and CO detectors are working properly.
All homes with a solid fuel burning appliance should have at least one fi re extinguisher in a central location,
known to all, at least one smoke detector and carbon monoxide (CO) detector in the room containing the
appliance. If the smoke detector sounds an alarm, correct the cause but do not deactive or relocate the smoke
detector. If the carbon monoxide detector sounds an alarm, immediately vent the area, evacuate and call your
local fi re department.
