Vent Restriction
6.3.2 Baffle Restrictor
Approved Vent Systems–Vent Restriction
Burner flame appearance and characteristics are affected by altitude,
fuel quality, venting configuration, and other factors. To achieve
desirable flame appearance, the vent exhaust may be restricted
by the restrictor plate (included in components packet) and/or by
adjusting the built-in restrictor wheel located in the baffle in the gas
stove firebox.
For vent restriction recommendations and adjustments, see
section
10.2.2, VENT RESTRICTION (AFTER INSTALLATION)
on page 40.
6.3.1 Restrictor Plate
The restrictor plate is shipped with all inner rings intact, and when
installed, provides the most vent restriction. There are (2) inner rings
that can be knocked out. The innermost ring knocked out will create
less restriction, and the outer most ring knocked out will create the
least amount of restriction.
Follow
FIGURE 7.1

venting, or through the baffle if venting is already attached.
