When loading wood
To reduce the risk of down draught when you raise the fireplace
door to load wood, Totem has developed an automatic smoke and
air management system.
When you raise the door (1):
-
The smoke damper trap (2) opens when you raise the
foldaway door (door open), this prevents down draughts.
-
The air booster flap (3) opens under the fireplace to
provide the extra amount of air required to supply a draught with
the door open and prevent controlled mechanical ventilation or a
cooker hood from causing a reverse draught in your fireplace.
When closing the door, the damper returns to its initial position and the booster flap closes.
