Test For Flue Spillage; Connecting To A Gas Supply - Harman Stove Company Harman Clarity 828i Installation And Operating Manual

Test for Flue Spillage

A spillage test should always be made at the
completion of the installation, and at least annually
thereafter.
1. Start all exhaust fans in the home and then close
all doors and windows in the room containing the
heater.
. Light the heater and allow it to run for 5 minutes
on the high output setting. The convection air blower
should be turned off for the test.
3. Remove the left trim panel, which is held in
place by a clip at the bottom and a magnet at the
top, and place a source of smoke (such as a match,
lighter, or a cigarette) in front of the flue spillage test
tube.
The smoke should be drawn into the tube. If it is
not, let the heater run for 5 more minutes and repeat
the test.
4. If the smoke is not drawn into the tube, turn off
the heater and determine why there is no draft. If
necessary, seek expert advice.
For sites with swirling or turbulent wind condi-
tions, a wind cap may solve the problem.
