Operation
The Encore Controls 
Two controls regulate the performance of the Encore:  a 
primary air control supplies oxygen for the fire, and a 
damper directs air flow within the stove to activate and 
deactivate the catalytic combustor.  
Symbols cast into the stove are reminders of the correct 
directions for opening and closing the controls.  The 
symbols assume that you are facing the front of the 
stove.

A Single Air Control Regulates 
Heat Output and Burn Time
The primary air control lever, located on the right side 
of the stove, controls the amount of incoming air for 
starting, maintaining, and reviving a fire.
More air entering the stove makes the fire burn hotter 
and faster, while less air prolongs the burn at a lower 
heat level. High and low settings appear in Figure 34. 
For the greatest air supply and maximum heat output 
(but the shortest burn time), move the lever toward the 
front of the stove. For a fire that will last longer with less 
heat, move the lever toward the rear of the stove.  
The Encore’s air control system also features an 
automatic thermostat to ensure an even heat output 
at whatever manual setting you select. The thermostat 
senses the heating and cooling of the stove surface  
and adjusts the air shutter accordingly.  
A Damper Directs Air Flow 
Within the Stove
The damper handle on the left side of the stove opens 
and closes the damper to direct air flow within the 
stove.
The damper is open when the handle points to the 
back of the stove, enabling smoke to pass directly into 
the chimney.  The damper must be open when starting 
or reviving a fire, and whenever the griddle or doors are 
opened.
