FRONT DRAFT BLOWER:
T
he front draft blower plays an important role in
your Fire Chief furnace’s operation. When the wall
thermostat calls for heat, the draft motor turns on
and supplies fresh air into the firebox producing a
hotter fire which in turns provides more heat in the
heat chamber. The heat is then sent through the
duct system throughout your home. When the wall
thermostat temperature is met, the draft blower
shuts off until the wall thermostat calls for heat,
beginning the cycle again. The draft blower has a
slide cover located on the side of the motor that is
factory preset, with an opening of approximately
3/4”; if adjustment is required, the damper may be
adjusted manually to increase or decrease the air
flow.
The cover should be fully closed only when there is a power failure and electricity is
lost. With the cover closed, no air is introduced into the firebox, the fire dies, preventing
the furnace from possible overheating and damage.
There is no warranty on electrical components
caused by power failure.
NOTE: OVER-FIRING OR DELIBERATE ABUSE CAN EASILY BE DETERMINED
UPON INSPECTION AND WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
Always keep your wood covered year round.
Dry wood will produce more Btu output
and a longer burn time.
