The Westley has an internal exhaust restrictor that can adjusted externally while the fireplace is in
operation. Depending on the length of venting required for installation this may need to be adjusted. The
restrictor is accessed from the front of the fireplace through the discharge opening as shown below (Figure
30). Using a 7/16” socket on a 12-14” long extension, rotate the restrictor COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until
the required setting is inline with the finger catch. Refer to the following Allowable Venting Configuration
graphs for the required restrictor setting. The proper setting is crucial for an efficient burn and best flame
appearance.
It may be necessary to deviate from the recommended setting as different altitudes and climates can
vary the operation of the fireplace. With propane (LP) fueled fireplaces, it is always a good idea ot offer
slightly less restriction for higher altitudes to reduce the potential of sooting over an extended period.
Note: The restrictor is set in the fully open position (0) from the factory
