4.OUTSIDE AIR KIT OPERATION

NOVUS B-VENT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

4.OUTSIDE AIR KIT OPERATION

The outside air kit should be purchased with this appliance. The outside air kit helps to decrease the amount of room air taken, by utilizing outside air for combustion. It is strongly recommended that it be installed.

To operate the outside air kit, before starting the appliance, open the control access panel. Grasp the small, black handle located on the left side of the appliance, just below the glass retainer. See Figure 25. Lift the handle out of its slot and pull towards the front. The outside air door should open. Replace the handle back in the slot on the bracket from which it was removed (so the outside air door remains open) and close the control access panel. When through burning the appliance, open the panel, grasp the handle and push the outside air door closed.

L. START-UP ISSUES

Issues:

Possible Causes and Solutions:

Condensation on the glass.

1.

This is a result of gas combusion and temperature variations. As

 

 

 

the appliance warms up, this condensation should disappear.

 

 

 

 

2.

Blue flames.

2.

This is a result of normal operation and the flames will begin to

 

 

 

yellow as the appliance is allowed to burn.

 

 

 

 

3.

Odor from the appliance.

3.

When first operated, this appliance may release an odor for the first

 

 

 

several hours. This is caused by the curing of the paint and the

 

 

 

burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing.

 

 

 

 

4.

Film on the glass.

4.

This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs.

 

 

 

Glass should be cleaned within 4-6 hours of initial burning to

 

 

 

remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing process. A non-

 

 

 

abrasive clearner, such as Brasso may be necessary.
