Bypass Operation

The bypass controls the flow of smoke inside the heater. When pulled out, smoke goes directly up the flue, creating more draft. When pushed in, the smoke goes around the baffle, utilizing the secondary combustion and making the heater more efficient.

When starting or re-loading, pull the bypass out.

During normal operation, push the bypass in.
