Provided with the log set is a small bag of glowing embers (rock
wool) to be placed between logs on the flat metal surface of the
burner.
Placement of the embers (rock wool) is very individual and light
coverage of the areas indicated will provide your best effects. We
recommend separation of the rock wool by hand and make your
coverage as light and fluffy as possible.
Place just enough embers (rock wool) on the burner to obtain the
glow and a gold yellow flame.
Do not place rock wool over large ports in rear portion of burner.
A thin layer of rock wool should be placed under open space
between the front and middle logs.
Rock wool should
not
be placed in the area of the pilot assembly.
Glowing embers (rock wool) can cover the burner in between
the front and middle logs, but very little is necessary to cover this
area. Excess ember material causes the yellow flame to become
orange and stringy. Apply just enough to obtain slow glow and a
gold, yellow flame.
Replacement of loose material (glowing embers) must be purchased
from Empire Comfort Systems, Inc. Application of excess loose
material (glowing embers) may adversely affect performance of
the heater.
WARNING
All previously applied loose material must be removed prior to
reapplication.
Refer to Parts List, Pages 34 to 35 to order loose material (rock
wool).
NOTICE
: A single layer of embers is to be used when applying
Platinum Bright Embers (alone or in combination with production
embers) to the burner.
