IMPORTANT: FIREPLACE DRAFT TEST DURING INITIAL INSTALLATION
It is critical to verify that your chimney is drafting properly because the fireplace and gas logs function as a system.
Although Monessen Hearth Systems goes to great lengths to design vented gas log sets that minimize sooting, all vented log
sets will soot over time. Sooting normally appears as areas of a black powder-like substance on the logs. It is important to
periodically clean and inspect the logs per the cleaning and servicing section of the manual.
FIREPLACE DRAFT TEST
FIREPLACE DRAFT TEST METHOD
To determine if your fireplace is drafting properly, turn the log set on. After the log set has been burning for about 10 minutes,
place a match or smoke stick along the top and sides of the fireplace opening. If the flame or smoke is not pulled into the
fireplace, then the
fireplace is not venting properly.
At this point the damper stop should be adjusted so that the damper
opening is increased. If the problem remains after the open area of the damper is increased, then the fireplace system should
be professionally inspected to determine if your firebox/chimney is venting properly.
Fireplace systems that do not draft properly can increase the amount of soot produced
by normal operation of the log set and in extreme cases can cause soot to be deposited
within the room. This effect can be a sign of a blocked chimney, a faulty vent system
or the result of negative pressure within the home. The dealer should be able to
diagnose if a problem exists and be able to provide a solution to improve the venting
of the fireplace.
