Recommended Operating Positions of Doors
WARNING!
Fireplaces equipped with doors should be operated only
with doors fully open or fully closed. If doors are left
partially open, gas and flame may be drawn out of the
fireplace opening, creating the risk of fire, smoke, or
carbon monoxide.
2. Negative Air Pressure Within the Structure
This fireplace will operate correctly only if adequate
ventilation is provided to allow proper draft to the fireplace
system. Hearth & Home Technologies assumes no
responsibility for the improper performance of the
fireplace system caused by inadequate draft due to
environmental conditions, down drafts, tight sealing
construction of the structure, or mechanical exhausting
devices which create a negative air pressure within the
structure where the fireplace is located
.
3. Outside Air
A damper control handle allows individual control of the
outside air inlets if your fireplace is equipped with this
option. Use of outside air for combustion is highly
recommended to conserve heated air within the structure
and to provide make up air to keep the fireplace venting
properly.
