RSF Wood Burning Fireplaces

Bi-metallic Air Control
RSF has incorporated a unique bi-metal damper into their large
firebox Opel, Onyx, and Delta fireplaces which works like a thermostat on
your furnace delivering unsurpassed temperature controlled heat to your
living space. Conventional air controlled fireplaces have fixed air
controls which burn up to 50% of their wood load in the first 2 hours of
their burn cycle. That means excessive heat for the first two hours, and
little heat for the next eight.
RSF's bi-metal damper senses the temperature in the heat exchanger
automatically reducing the air setting at the start of the burn cycle and
opens at the end delivering even temperature controlled heat throughout
the burn cycle. The bi-metal damper also adjusts to heating demands of
your home automatically burning more wood on a cold winter night and less
on late spring evening, yet always delivering the same temperature
controlled heat to your living space. RSF's unique bi-metal damper is just
one of the reasons RSF fireplaces have earned the coveted Popular Science
Choice.
Central Heating Capabilities
The central heating option enables RSF fireplaces to be ducted in any
direction, including down into a level below the fireplace. The ducting
from an RSF fireplace can be set up a number of different ways:
- You can run a single duct from your RSF fireplace to a cool room on
any level of your home and use a thermostat in that room to turn on
the blower when the room requires heat. Options FDHB6-1 and FDHC6.
- ou can locate the thermostat in the same room as the fireplace and
use it to turn on the blower and move the heat to another area of the
house when the room with the fireplace gets too warm. Options FDHB6-1
and FDHC6.
RSF's unique bi-metallic air control automatically adjusts the burning
rate of the fire to compensate for the additional output required to
supply your central heating system. The central heating options shown
below are available for the Opel, Onyx and Delta fireplaces. We do not
recommend the Oracle be used as a continuous heating source.
