Variable Vent Restriction
Vent restriction is accomplished by sliding a restric- tor panel over the combustion air intake ports located at the back of the firebox. See Fig 19. The panel is set in a fully open position at the factory. Use the Vent Window diagrams in Figs.
1.Remove the Controls Panel to access the adjust- ment lever at the rear of the valve compatment. Simply loosen the two wingnuts that secure the panel to the cabinet floor and pull the panel forward. You do not need to disconnect any wires.
2.Locate the vent restriction wingnut protruding from the firebox floor at the rear of the valve compartment. Loosen the wingnut and push the lever to the left to increase restriction in one inch increments, e.g: 1 inch travel = 1/3 closed position.
The ideal restrictor setting for a particular vent system will vary depending on the specific installa- tion characteristics. Once the fireplace is operating, further restrictor adjustment may be necessary to obtain the best performance. See the Operation chapter of this manual for more information.
