2.6 Chimney Sweeping Cap
The chimney sweeping cap found at the baffle of
the FLAIR allows easy access for chimney
sweeping
without
having
to remove
any
components of the firebox.
WARNING: The chimney sweeping cap must
always block access to the chimney during
combustion. A chimney sweeping cap that is
not blocking the baffle hole during combustion
is a safety hazard, will overheat the fireplace
and void the warranty.
2.7 Door
The FLAIR wood burning insert comes with a Pyroceramic glass panel door. Pyroceramic is the highest grade
available for fireplaces and stoves and can withstand temperatures up to 704
o
C / 1300
o
F. To remove the door,
open the door, lift it and pull it towards the bottom until the rod exits from the hinge holes.
NOTE: The door of the FLAIR must remain closed at all times during operation.
2.8 Blowers
The FLAIR wood burning fireplace insert is equipped with two AC centrifugal compact fans on either side of the
surround
(electrical rating: 115V, 60Hz, and 19W)
.
CAUTION: Make certain that the fireplace is not in operation and the blowers are unplugged before
accessing the electrical wiring.
Plug the power cord into an 115V
grounded
outlet for protection against a power surge. The blowers will turn
on and turn off automatically during the operation of the unit. As the temperature of the fireplace insert increases
and the heat activated sensor reaches 35
o
C / 95°F, the fans will turn on. Note that the average time it takes for
the fans to activate is between 30 to 45 minutes after starting a fire. The fans will turn off once the fireplace has
cooled down and the heat activated sensor reaches 85°F. Note that the response time of the blowers can be
adjusted by sliding the thermodisk mounting bracket further (longer delay) or closer (shorter delay) from the
firebox. The speed of the fans can be adjusted with the variable speed control installed on the side of the
surround. It is safe to operate the FLAIR in the event of a power failure (fans not powered).
2.9 Optional Fresh Air Adaptor
The Optional Fresh Air Kit allows for exterior air (outdoors) to be drawn into the fireplace during operation of the
unit. Note that a 4 inches duct is required for the installation (item ordered separately). Refer to Section 4.7 for
installation instructions. Contact your local building official regarding mandatory fresh air kit installations within
your area.
CAUTION: Only a fresh air kit provided by SUPREME FIREPLACES INC. can be installed onto the fireplace.
Substituting the fresh air kit may result in overheating and will void the warranty.
