damper
When preparing the unit for use(ignition and wood loading), it is important that the damper is in the
open position. While the unit is functioning ensure the damper is in the open position. Once the fire has
died down and the fireplace is cool to the touch, close the damper.
Combustion air settings
The combustion air control is located on the base below the fireplace shelf. This mechanism controls
flow of air entering the firebox, which allows for a more precise control of the fire. The quantity of
combustion air entering the firebox can be altered by moving the combustion air control from the left
(low) to the right (high).
aCCelerated Combustion
The maximum heat output for JC Bordelet fireplaces is achieved with the combustion air control fully
opened. The fireplace can achieve an optimal heat output with two large or three medium size pieces of
wood.
