I have a rayburn 80 - not long moved into the house. With the help of this newsgroup was able to locate spare parts needed thanks everyone for that.
No its up and running I managed to get hold of info for the rayburn but one thing that is not mentioned is the use of the throat plate, apart from how to remove it for cleaning.
Question is - I know that if I open the throat plate slightly (by pulling forward) the smoke goes around the back and presumably straight up the chimney - logic tells me that apart from when lighting the fire I should leave it closed ie: pushed to the back at all times, am I correct in asuming this or is there some other reason that the throat plate slides?
Thanks in advance.
