INSTALLATION
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
The air shutter allows the amount of air coming
into the burner to be adjusted in order to
accommodate different climates and venting
arrangements.
1. Remove the safety screen trim (see
SAFETY SCREEN TRIM REMOVAL
). The
air shutter adjustment lever is left of the
valve. (
Fig.18
)
2. Loosen the wing nut that locks the air
shutter lever to the appliance.
3.
Start the pilot and then the burner. Allow
the appliance to operate for 15 minutes
before making any air adjustments.
4.
The ideal flame will be blue at the base and
light orange above. If the flames are short
and mostly blue, the fireplace is getting too
much air. Therefore, the air shutter should
be closed slightly until the correct flames
are achieved. Slide the air shutter to the
right to reduce the amount of air.
5. Flames that are very orange, with tall,
dark, stringy tips, are not getting enough
air. Therefore, the air shutter should be
opened slightly until the desired flames are
achieved. Slide the air shutter to the left to
increase the amount of air.
6. Tighten air shutter lock wing nut.
