Restrictor Adjustment
The exhaust restrictor fine tunes your appliance, ensuring it pulls the correct amount of air through
the firebox. Altitude, vent configuration, and other factors make restrictor adjustment necessary for
every installation.
NOTE : the optimal restrictor position will vary over time as soot builds up inside the exhaust system
make sure the homeowner knows how to visually inspect the flame and adjust the restrictor.
Not Enough Air:
If clinkers develop or the
flame appears lazy and
slow to blow the ash out of
the firepot, pull the
restrictor outward until the
flame becomes active and
the firepot holes remain
clean. NOTE: If the
restrictor is fully out (5),
yet the firepot does not
remain clean, the stove
needs to be cleaned and
checked for air leaks (see
Maintenance section of
this manual).
Too Much Air:
If the flames are too active
(small, flickering flames) or
if burning pellets are
expelled from the firepot,
move the restrictor rod
inwards until the flame
slows down and no
burning pellets are
expelled. Another
symptom of too much air is
the heater blowing the fire
out a condition in which
the pellets burn faster than
they are fed (this is most
common on low).
