Start-up and coniguration
1.6.1
System testing
Before any adjustments are made to the system, follow these procedures:
Turn the chimney fan ON and make sure that it is operating. Increase and decrease the speed of the fan by adjusting the
fan speed control to make sure it is operating properly.
DANGER
Check heating appliances (water heater, furnace, etc.) for proper operation while the chimney
fan is operating. Make sure no lue gases are spilling out as this can lead to carbon monoxide
poisoning.
1.6.2
Testing ireplace or stove
y
Place a few logs on a grate or on the loor of the ireplace or stove.
y
Before lighting the ire, set the fan at high/full speed (on stoves,
open air intake completely).
y
Light the ire and make sure there is no spillage from the ireplace
opening.
y
When the ire has caught on, reduce the speed of the chimney fan
to a point where it still removes the lue gases safely. Remember
this setting on the fan speed control, as this will be the operating
position/ speed of the chimney fan.
1.6.3
Testing pizza oven
Most pizza ovens consist of a dome with a front opening that can be
closed with a cast iron door. Above the opening a hood connected to
the lue assures smoke and odours are collected and removed safely (see
igure).
y
Place a few logs in the back of the dome and set the fan at high/full
speed. Light the ire. Turn on all other exhaust fans (range hoods,
etc.) and make sure there is no spillage from the hood into the
room.
y
When the ire has caught on, reduce the speed of the chimney
fan to a point where it still removes the lue gases safely. Mark this
setting on the fan speed control cover, as this will be the operating
position/ speed of the chimney fan.
1.6.4
Operating ireplace and stove
y
Prior to starting a ire, set the fan at high/full speed and start the ire following the normal instructions for bur-
ning a ire in a ireplace or stove. After the ire catches on, after 3-5 minutes, reduce the speed of the chimney fan
to a level where it safely removes the lue gases and a perfect lame can be maintained.
y
When adding wood to the ire, it may be necessary to increase the fan speed for a short period of time. Following
this procedure will help conserve energy and at the same time assure a maximum heating output from the hea-
ting appliance.
