Primary Air Control
A single air control regulates the amount of heat the fire will produce and how long it will burn.
The primary air control lever is located midway up the left side panel. The lever regulates air for starting, maintaining, and reviving the fire.
Generally, more air entering the stove makes the fire burn hotter and faster, while less air prolongs the burn.
The WinterWarm Small Insert’s air supply is increased when the control lever is moved counterclockwise, and decreased when moved clockwise. It may be set any- where between the two extremes, however, depending on the amount of heat desired. (Fig. 9)
To complement the manual setting of the air control, the WinterWarm Small Insert has an internal automatic thermostat that ensures an even delivery of heat at the manual setting you select.
The damper directs air flow within the fireplace. The damper is operated by moving the lever located above the door. It has two positions: Open, to start or revive the fire; and closed, for normal operation. The damper is open when the lever is to the far right, and closed when to the far left. There are no intermediate settings
for damper position. (Fig. 12)
To open the damper, insert the
To close the damper, move the lever to the left, continu-
ing past the resistance to lock the damper in position.
