desired temperature when, closing the primary air control, you can see a flame at the top of
the firebox. The benefit of this technique will be cleaner glass, less creosoting, greater
efficiency and the most pleasing fire for your enjoyment.
In order to achieve an optimum efficiency from your unit, we suggest that you operate it with
the air control completely closed. Make sure that you have a good fire going and an adequate
ember bed before you completely close the air control. Closing the air control too soon will
lower combustion efficiency and may cause the fire to die out. The addition of a blower (if
not already included) is highly recommended to maximize your unit’s efficiency.
2.2.6 Primary Air
There is no flue damper in the ENERZONE SOLUTION 2.5ZC. As in common with air tight
stoves, the combustion air control sets the flow of air entering the firebox. This allows for a
more precise control of the fire. The combustion air control is located below the door on the
right side. The main source of air (primary air) entering the firebox can be diminished by
moving the air combustion control from right to left. The primary air is fully opened when the
air control is completely moved to the right. The combustion air control should be in the
closed position (primary air) when the fireplace is not in use. This will minimize air leakage
up the chimney. The combustion air control should be opened before opening the door to
minimize the possibility of back draft coming into the room.
