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.
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.
Adjusting the air control all the way to the left reduces the temperature. The draft
can be adjusted from low to high by moving the handle from left to right.
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).
7.3 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.
