Variable Vent Restriction

Vent restriction is accomplished by sliding a restric- tor panel over the combustion air intake ports located at the back of the firebox. See Fig 19. The panel is set in a fully open position at the factory. Use the Vent Window diagrams in Figs. 12-13 as a starting point to determine the best restriction setting. Follow these steps to adjust the restriction as necessary:

1.Remove the Controls Panel to access the adjust- ment lever at the rear of the valve compatment. Simply loosen the two wingnuts that secure the panel to the cabinet floor and pull the panel forward. You do not need to disconnect any wires.

2.Locate the vent restriction wingnut protruding from the firebox floor at the rear of the valve compartment. Loosen the wingnut and push the lever to the left to increase restriction in one inch increments, e.g: 1 inch travel = 1/3 closed position.

The ideal restrictor setting for a particular vent system will vary depending on the specific installa- tion characteristics. Once the fireplace is operating, further restrictor adjustment may be necessary to obtain the best performance. See the Operation chapter of this manual for more information.

Fireplace Installation

Optional Blower

Install the optional Blower (155630) before installing the gas supply line.

Power Requirement

The blower must be electrically grounded in accor- dance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current NFPA 70- National Electrical Code or CSA C22.1-Canadian Code.

Athree-prong (grounding) power supply plug is included for protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE

THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE PLUG.

Blower Function

In the Auto mode, the blower is controlled by a heat activated switch (snapstat) that will turn the fan on and off as the firebox heats and cools. Use the Manual mode to over-ride the snapstat. If the blower is not needed, place the blower control switch in the OFF position and the snapstat will not function.

CAUTION: Always unplug the Blower when performing any routine service to the Acadia gas fireplace.

Installation

1.Loosen the two wingnuts that secure the Control Panel to the fireplace floor. Pull the panel forward and swing it to the right to access the rear of the cabinet. Do not disconnect any wires.

2.Insert a rubber grommet at each corner of the Base Plate as shown in fig. 20.

3.Engage the Blower unit base with the four studs at the rear of the fireplace cabinet floor. See fig. 21.

4.Insert the Snapstat into the slot in the Snapstat Bracket and, using the M6 nuts and 10 mm socket, attach the Control Switch / Snapstat Bracket to the two studs protruding from the firebox floor. See fig. 22.

5.Connect the Blower Wire harness to the switch connector at the back of the Control Panel and two other leads to either terminal on the snapstat.

6.Run the power cord to the duplex receptacle in the side of the cabinet. Gather slack cord into the side cavity, away from the plumbing and other wiring. Reposition and secure the Control Panel.
