Symptom 

Possible Causes 

Corrective Actions 

CabanaCoast® Fire

 Pit

 

won't 

light. 

Low flames or won’t stay 
lit. 

Blue Flames 

Metallic noise 

Fire glass

 cracking 

or splitting 

      

Piezoelectric Igniter   

makes clicking sound 
but no visible spark 
is produced

 

No LP in tank, or NG main not 
turned on.

 

Plugged burner orifice. 

Manual shutoff valve (on/off control 
knob) open or not in-stalled be-
tween LP tank and appliance.

 

This is a result of normal operation 
and flames will begin to yellow as 
unit is allowed to burn for 16-20 
minutes.

 

Improper air/fuel mixture related to 
air shutter position.

 

Noise is caused by metal expand-
ing and contracting as it heats up 
and cools down, similar to the 
sound produced by a furnace or 
heating duct. This noise does not 
affect the operation or longevity of 
the appliance.

 

Heat and/or abrupt temperature 

changes.

 

Piezoelectric Igniter 

is improperly grounded 

Ignition or ground wire not plugged 
in. 

Igniter tip set too far from rounding 
probe

 

Check the LP (propane) tank. You may be 
out of gas. Or check Natural Gas valve at 
main.

 

Check the burner orifice for stoppage. 
Remove stoppage.

 

Close LP tank and manual shutoff valves. 
Open LP tank valve first, THEN the manu-
al shutoff valve.

 

Do nothing. 

Close air shutter. (for LP, leave ¼” open, 
Natural gas 1/16” open)

 

Do nothing. 

This is a property of glass and may hap-
pen occasionally. Do nothing. This is 
completely normal.

 

Refer to section 4-C on Page 9 for 
grounding instructions . Check all wire 
connections.

 

Check that tip of 

Piezoelectric Igniter

 is within ¼” of 

grounding probe. Gently bend igniter tip 
or grounding probe by hand to achieve a 
smaller gap.
