ROOM HEATER FEATURES

Before attempting to install or operate your heater, it is a good idea to familiarize yourself with the features and operating controls of the unit.

OPERATING CONTROLS

WARNING: Model 20 heater was not designed for fire grates.

1.Bypass Damper: The bypass damper control is located in the top center of the heater front just under the top. It is operated by pushing or pulling the rod. The damper is fully open when the handle is pulled out and fully closed when it is pushed in. The damper must be open before the door is opened.

2.Blower Control: The blower control switch is located behind the access door at the lower left hand side of the front of the unit. The unit has a Auto-Off-Manual manual switch. Set the switch to the Manual position and the blower well start at any temperature, set the switch to the Off position and the blower well not run at any temperature. Set the switch to the Auto position and when the stove temperature reaches 110o blower will automatically come on.

3.Primary Air Control: The primary air intake draft control is located on the upper portion of the unit next to the top extension. It is operated by moving up and down to control the amount of primary air entering the firebox.

4.Warm Air Outlets: Provides heat extraction from the top of the firebox.

5.Baffles: Directs air flow around the unit for maximum heat transfer.

6.Air Inlet: Allows cool air near the floor to be circulated through the blower and back into the warm air chamber of the heater.

7.Stand: Elevates heater above the floor for safety and a neat appearance.

15.Air Wash: Primary air is directed in such a way as to provide a “sweeping” airwash over the glass to assist in keeping it clean.
