Slider/damper set-up, Installation – Enviro C-10608 User Manual

The combustion exhaust blower is a variable speed blower controlled by the heat output button. This

blower will decrease the vacuum pressure inside the stove and as the heat output button is turned down.

The vacuum pressure inside the firebox will increase as the combustion exhaust blower increases in

speed (higher heat output setting).

If the fire should happen to go out and the heat output indicator has been set on the lowest setting, the

Slider Damper should be pushed in slightly, decreasing the air in the firebox.
If, after long periods of burning, the fire builds up and overflows the burn pot or there is a build up of

clinkers, this would be a sign that the pellet quality is poor, this requires more primary air, the slider

damper must be pulled out to compensate. Pulling the slider damper out gives the fire more air.

The easiest way to make sure that an efficient flame is achieved is to understand the characteristics of

the fire.

• A tall, lazy flame with dark orange tips requires more air – Open slider (pull out) slightly.

• A short, brisk flame, like a blowtorch, has too much air – Close slider (push in) slightly.

• If the flame is in the middle of these two characteristics with a bright yellow/orange, active flame

with no black tips then the air is set for proper operation.

SPECIAL NOTES:
Pellet quality is a major factor in how the Pellet stove will operate. If the pellets have a high moisture

content or ash content the fire will be less efficient and has a higher possibility of the fire building up and

creating clinkers (hard ash build-up).

Taking a reading of vacuum pressure inside the firebox with a magnehelic gauge can be used to set

the slider for best combustion. The best settings are a reading of approximately 0.10 inches of

water column on the high fire setting. Some fuels may require higher or lower settings. The

reading can be taken from the 1⁄8” (3 mm) hole located on the front of the unit below the door and behind

the magnetic ash lip.
