If the fire should happen to go out and the heat output indicator has been set on the lowest setting, the
Slider Damper should be pushed in slightly, decreasing the air in the firebox.
If, after long periods of burning, the fire builds up
and overflows the burn pot or there is a build up of
clinkers, this would be a sign that the pellet quality
is poor, this requires more primary air, the slider
damper must be pulled out to compensate. Pulling
the slider damper out gives the fire more air.
The easiest way to make sure that an efficient flame
is achieved is to understand the characteristics of
the fire.
• A tall, lazy flame with dark orange tips requires
more air – Open slider (pull out) slightly.

too much air – Close slider (push in) slightly.
• If the flame is in the middle of these two characteristics with a bright
yellow/orange, active flame with no black tips then the air is set for
proper operation, refer to Figure 7.
The combustion exhaust blower is a variable speed blower controlled by
the heat output button. This blower will decrease the vacuum pressure
inside the stove, adjusting the air to fuel ratio.
SPECIAL NOTES:
Pellet quality is a major factor in how the Pellet stove will operate. If the
pellets have a high moisture content or ash content the fire will be less
efficient and has a higher possibility of the fire building up and creating
clinkers (hard ash build-up).
