If you experience problems adjusting the Furnace during the Break-In Period,
contact your dealer. The figure below may be used to gage the approximate damper
setting when making an adjustment. Some chimney systems will fall outside the norm,
for example, a chimney with excessive draft or one with a long horizontal run. In dealing
with technical support, the terminology listed in figure 16 may be used to clarify where
your damper needs to be set.
Figure 16
Damper Adjustment Procedure.
Once the Furnace has been lit for the first time, the damper will need to be adjusted. The
process is different for Grains than Pellets. This may take some time, so please be patient
during this process. This Damper Adjustment process only needs to be done once. After
the damper has been adjusted to the unique installation in your home, the control board
will do the rest.
As was stated earlier there is a setscrew in the damper and the damper has been preset at
the factory. This setting will most likely work for 90 % of the most common installations.
Long horizontal runs might need the damper opened. Tall vertical runs might need the
damper to be closed a little, etc. To adjust the damper, use the setscrew to make the
adjustments. To make an adjustment turn the screw ½ turn clockwise to open the damper
or ½ turn counter clockwise to close the damper. Turning the setscrew counterclockwise
will not move the damper, so remember to use the damper handle to bring the damper up
to the screw. After making an adjustment wait at least 15 minutes to see how the burn pot
reacts to the change.
