FLAME TROUBLESHOOTING

NOTE: It is important to understand that the flame and glow in this appliance was designed to resemble a matured wood flame. The amount of charcoal nuggets and glowing ember limit the amount of flame height attainable. This appliance will not have the typical tall yellow gas unit flames. (Avg. flame height 3- 5”). This stove will take 20-30 minutes for the flame to establish itself.

Caution: This appliance is only approved for the following termination caps: DuraVent part #985, High wind Horizontal, HTI/Aladdin part #HHW2 High wind Horizontal, and DuraVent part #991, High wind vertical. Other caps cannot be substituted.

Caution: A restrictor strap (HTI/Aladdin Part #842-3330, included with appliance) is required for vertical installations. Low flame height will result if restrictor strap is not installed for vertical applications. See Figure B on following page.

NOTE: This unit was not designed to have flames exiting holes in the right base log. The burner should have a low blue flame with only heat exiting log causing parameter of holes to glow.

Low Flames (correct flame height is 3-5”)

Twenty to thirty minutes of burning is required for this unit to equalize temperature therefore attaining correct flame height and color. If flame after this time is inadequate:

1.Turn burner shutter clockwise (see illustration in Figure A below), looking periodically for increase in flame height. Do not close shutter to the point that flames become dark yellow with black tips, this will cause a deposit of carbon both in the firebox and possibly on the siding of your home. If no noticeable change occurs to the flame, continue to step 2.
