Service and Maintenance
Although most service should be conducted by a qualified service
person, there are several things that can be checked to ensure
safe and comfortable operation.
Keep the area surrounding the fireplace free from any types of
combustible materials. The filter should be checked and cleaned
on a monthly basis. All other maintenance should be conducted
by a qualified service person.
Circulating Air Blower
The circulating air blower should be checked and cleaned annu
-
ally by a qualified service person to ensure that your appliance is
operating efficiently. Any dirt or lint can affect the operation of the
blower.
Heat Exchanger
The heat exchanger is located on the backside of the fireplace.
The heat exchanger should be inspected and cleaned annually by
a qualified service person.
Filter
The filter is located on the inside of the lower louver panel on
Bay Window Models and on Fireplace models equipped with FIK,
FFK or FWK Surrounds. On Fireplace models equipped with the
FHK louverless surround, the filter is located on the inside bottom
flange of the surround (FHK Surrounds).
To clean the filter on fireplaces equipped with the lower louver
panel, remove the panel and disengage the filter rod from its re
-
taining holes.
For Fireplace Models equipped with louverless FHK surrounds,
the entire surround must be removed from the fireplace. This is
accomplished by lifting and removing the surround from the sup
-
port bracket hooks. Remove the filter retainers and filters from the
inside bottom flange by removing the screw holding the filter re
-
tainer in place.
The filters may be rinsed with water or blown clean with com
-
pressed air. Allow the filters to dry completely before reinstalling
them.
