Additives that are put in gas (both natural and LP) to make it smell can be harmful to glass and can leave
a white film deposit on the glass. This deposit can be removed with cleaners such as KEL KEM “Polish Plus”
or comparable product. Contact your authorized dealer for more information.
Additional Curing Information
It is not unusual to require more than 10 continuous hours on high for curing odors to diminish. There are variables that can
extend or shorten the curing time, such as decorative fronts, doors, facing materials, and their applications.
It is normal for surrounding surfaces to be too hot to touch. Provided that all clearances and R-value requirements in the
installation manual have been met, this is not a safety concern. Be aware that any material used around the fireplace will
heat up and has the potential to cause odor issues. Adhesives, glue, wall substrate, wall finish material, paints, and polishes
are common materials that if used incorrectly will cause odor issues. Acadia is not responsible for any odor issues caused
by materials used. If you have any additional questions or concerns, contact your authorized dealer or email service@

Can I Operate During Power Outages?
This electronic ignition system uses the supplied 120VAC power when it is available for all functions of this system. If you
experience a power outage, insert 4 AA batteries into battery pack located in the ignition module box. During the power
outage, the burner will function as well as the flame height adjustment. The fan and accent light, which are dependent on
120VAC power, will not function. Your installer should demonstrate the backup DC power pack during power outages. Be sure
to retain the DC battery pack and the connecting harness in a safe and secure place for use during power outages.
What Is The Required Annual Maintenance?
The following procedures must be performed each year by a qualified service person. Recommended steps for yearly
maintenance:
IMPORTANT
Any adjustments to burner, pilot, or logs must be done by a qualified authorized service person.
1. Remove logs and coals and clean away any foreign matter (lint, carbon, etc.) on the burner and logs. Be sure the burner
ports are “open”. Clean the pilot and under side of the logs for any carbon deposits. Logs should be visually checked for
carbon buildup. If carbon deposits are visible on logs, turned off and contact an authorized service person. Be sure logs are
re-installed per instructions.
2. Clean all lint and dust build-up around the control. Inspect the condition of any wiring under the burner for melting or
damage. Clean flame sensor rod/hook using emery cloth. Vacuum all burner ports and pilot assembly.
3.
Check condition of glass door gasket, the gasket must seal tightly over firebox, Inspect gasket along top and sides of glass.
If gasket at corners of glass are bulging outward or if gasket bulb along top edge or sides are discolored to a white color
appearance through the whole thickness of the gasket bulb, then replace the gasket. White colored gasket bulb indicates
exhaust leak through the discolored area and requires replacement of the glass gasket.
How Do I Clean The Glass?
The glass should be cleaned periodically.
Do not use oven cleaner or ammonia-based products to clean glass. Clean the glass only
when it has cooled to room temperature.
To clean glass surface, use Kel Kem Polish or a comparable product. Do not use oven cleaner or abrasive cleaners to clean
glass. Do not clean when glass is hot.
Is My Flame Appearance Correct?
There are air shutters and media that can be adjusted depending on your fuel and venting configuration. These adjustments
should be made by a qualified technician to achieve the best flame appearance. Contact your installer or authorized dealer
if you feel it is not burning correctly. Improper setup and adjustment is not covered under warranty.
Follow these steps for periodic inspections:
1. Check to verify that the vent system and vent cap are open and free of blockage.
2. The glass should be cleaned periodically.
