2.4 Cold Hand Key
The Cold Hand Key (Figure 6) is an accessory that comes standard with
the FUSION 18 insert. The Cold Hand Key is a tool used to manipulate the
Combustion Air Control Levers when it is hot.
2.5 Chimney Sweeping Cap
The chimney sweeping cap (Figure 7) found at the baffle of the FUSION 18
allows easy access for chimney sweeping without having to remove any
components of the firebox.
WARNING:
The chimney sweeping cap should be blocking the access to
the chimney at all times 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.
2.6 Door
The FUSION 18 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 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 FUSION 18 must remain closed at all times during operation.
2.7 Removable Ash Lip
The Ash Lip (Figure 8) is a removable accessory that comes
standard with the FUSION 18 insert. It is installed on the door
holder (under the two small angled tags below the door) and
prevents ashes from falling onto the front of the hearth. The Ash
Lip can be installed with the door open or closed. It is safe to
operate the unit without the Ash Lip
2.8 Blowers
The FUSION 18 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 in 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 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. The speed of the fans can be adjusted with the
variable speed control mounted on the wall. It is safe to operate the FUSION 18 in the event of a power failure
(fans not powered).
