DV400S DIRECT VENT ROOM HEATER

E. Adjustable Flue Restrictor

The DV400S has an adjustable flue restrictor for maximum performance for vertical installations. The unit is shipped with the restrictor in the open position and should be left open with any horizontal installation.

To access the adjustable flue restrictor bolt you must take the following steps:

1. Remove the front face of the unit.

 

2. Remove the glass and set in a safe

 

place.

 

The adjustable bolt can be accessed by reaching through the

Figure 23- Decorative Door Trim

firebox to the back of the unit. See Figure 22.

 

The amount to close the restrictor will depend on the vent height. If the vertical height is 20 feet or more, the restrictor can be closed all the way. Anything less will require some setting less than closed. The setting will vary depending on the installation.

Any offsets in a vertical installation will restrict the system and the flue restrictor will not need to be closed as much.

The screws are thread cutters and a power screwdriver is neces- sary to drive the screws into position. See Figure 23.

I. Replacing the Front Face

Carefully lift the front face into position and replace the thumb screw to hold it in position.

G. Install the Glass

After cleaning the glass, carefully place the Glass Frame Assembly onto the unit by positioning the tabs at the bottom of the frame into the slots. Pull the latch releases forward and hook over the glass frame.
