Table 2 Various Mantel Depths and Corresponding Installation Heights
Maximum Mantel Depth Minimum Installation Height
0" to 4" 23"
6" 25 ½"
8" 28"
10" 31"
12" 36 ½"
No combustible mantel can be installed lower than 23" above the top of the firebox opening. A combustible mantel
cannot be wider than 12".
For combustible mantel depths not mentioned in the list above, you can interpolate the minimum installation
height between the two closest mantel depths. For example:
•
Mantel depth to be installed: 9 ¼"
•
It is between 8" and 10" with corresponding installation heights of 28" and 31"
• So: ((9.25 – 8) / (10-8) x (31-28)) + 28 = 29.875 = 29 7/8"
• Minimum installation height of a 9 ¼" mantel: 29 7/8" above the firebox opening.
If the combustible mantel has a cross-section with variable depth, it must be installed so that its widest part is not
installed lower than the corresponding minimum installation height while making sure that the lowest point of the
mantel is not installed lower than the minimum installation height corresponding to its depth.
Refer to the "Installation: Mantel" section for particulars.
OPERATION
AIR CONTROLS
Unlike most open fireplaces, RSF fireplaces don’t have flue
dampers. Instead, the system is sealed by closing the door, and
the amount of air entering the firebox is controlled by the
combustion air control lever on the front of the fireplace on the
right below the door (see Figure 2) which can be moved left or
right. Setting the air control lever all the way open (towards the
right) will allow the maximum amount of air into the firebox.
Closing the air control (towards the left) will reduce the amount of
air entering the firebox.
Bi-metallic Damper
The bi-metallic damper is a unique feature built into your OPEL
fireplace. As the fireplace heats up it will activate the bi-metallic
damper. This will automatically begin to shut down the air
entering the firebox, slowing the combustion process. This will
save you wood in the long run, and prevent the fireplace from
overheating and causing potential damage to the firebox. We
suggest that the combustion air control lever is used as the
primary control to limit the oxygen entering the firebox, and that the bi-metallic damper is left as an
additional safety system.
Outside Air Control
The OPEL has been designed to offer you the choice to use outside air or inside air for combustion. You will find a
sliding door behind the bottom louver and below the firebox. Push the sliding door towards the back to select outside
