1.1. AIR CONTROLS
The Blaze B400 wood heater features a single air
control system. It is designed to introduce oxygen
into the base of the fire, controlling the rate of
combustion of the wood. In addition, oxygen is
drawn into the upper firebox where combustion of
the gases occurs.
The air control is operated by sliding the stainless
steel handle located on the top right side of the
heater. Pulled all the way out offers maximum
burn rate, while pushed all the way in offers
minimum burn rate.
Secondary air holes in the rear of the firebox
provide additional oxygen for a more complete
combustion of the gases released from the
burning wood.
1.2. DOOR HANDLE
Warning: the door handle may get hot if
appliance has been left in high burn setting
for an extended period of time. Please use the
provided pair of heat resistant gloves if the handle
becomes hot.
1.3. WOOD STORAGE COMPARTMENT
Warning: the Blaze B400 features a storage area
for a small amount of firewood. Do not overload
this compartment - ensure that there is at least a
5mm gap to the ceiling of the unit.
