CHANGE HEAT LEVEL (thermostat active)
• When the homeowner changes the control board heat level setting, while the thermostat is active
(calling for heat,) the new setting becomes the new thermostat (call for heat) setting. The stove will
move to that heat setting anytime the thermostat calls for heat. Otherwise, when the thermostat no
longer calls for heat, the control board sets the stove to Heat #1.
• If the operator changes the heat level to 1 while the thermostat is calling for heat, it will become the
new Thermostat Heat Level. But because this is the same setting as when the thermostat stops calling
for heat, the operator will get no indication that the thermostat is in control of the stove.
CHANGE HEAT LEVEL (thermostat inactive)
• If the operator makes a change to the heat level while the stove is inactive, the stove will move to that
level. The next time the thermostat calls for heat, the most recently programmed heat level will
become the Thermostat Heat Level and the stove will operate at that point until the thermostat no
longer calls for heat.
FIGURE 10: CROSSFIRE COMBUSTION FRESH AIR CONTROL
COMBUSTION FRESH AIR CONTROL
Combustion fresh air can be controlled on the Crossfire. This control assists in optimizing the burn rate of the
fuel. All air entering the firebox is controlled with this fresh air control system. A control lever as shown in
figure 10 above, opens and close’s the inlet damper. This air control should allow the homeowner to adjust for
any variation in fuel to ensure an efficient burn. If the fresh air is connected to a pipe leading outside the
house, the fresh air control should be kept in the closed condition to minimize air infiltration into the home
when the Crossfire stove is not in use.
