Maintaining Catalytic Burn-Off

This fireplace uses a catalytic combustor to increase heat transfer to the room and reduce emissions.

The catalytic combustor takes dirty smoke and turns it into extra heat and cleaner emissions.

NOTE: If the combustor is engaged (bypass closed) when the fireplace is still cool, it will not work, leading to dirty smoke, no extra heat, and a dirtier combustor.

Warning: The bypass control becomes hot during operation - use gloves or a tool to prevent burns.

Follow the directions below to utilize the combustor to its fullest potential.

Keep the by-pass open (pulled out) until the fireplace becomes hot (approximately 15 to 30 minutes).

Close the by-pass (push in) when the fireplace is hot.

Keep the by-pass closed (pushed in) while the fireplace is operating, except when re-loading.

Hint: The combustor can be viewed through the glass from below. You will notice the combustor glowing red when the combustor is working effectively.

With the by-pass open (pulled out), the smoke passes through the by-pass and does not go through the combustor.

With the by-pass closed (pushed in), the smoke passes through the combustor.
