properly. Check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean. Check the pilot to make sure it is not
blocked by anything. The pilot flame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.

Clearances must be sufficient to allow access for maintenance and service

Check the
gasket material on the back of the
glass, making sure that it is attached and intact.
During a cold start up, condensation will sometimes form on the glass. This is a normal condition with
all gas fireplaces. However, this condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial
paint curing of the appliance can leave a slight film behind the glass, a temporary problem. The glass
will need cleaning about two weeks after installation.
Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth
.
Abrasive cleaners will damage the glass and painted surfaces.
Depending on the amount of use,
the glass should require cleaning no more than two or three times a season.
Do not clean the glass
when it is hot.

Remove all of the glass media from the tray, a vacuum cleaner with an empty canister or new bag works
best. At this time, inspect the burner tray for cracking or severe warping. If a problem is suspected,
contact the dealer. Check the glass media for large amounts of soot; a small amount on the bottom side
of the glass is normal. Re-install the glass as in the Secondary Installation - Glass Media Installation
section. If new or glass is required, contact your nearest ENVIRO dealer.

The glass in the fireplace is a high temperature ceramic. If the glass is damaged in any way, a factory
replacement is required (see
P
arts
l
Ist
). Wear gloves when handling damaged glass door assembly
to prevent personal injury. Do not operate with the glass front removed, cracked or broken. Removal
and replacement of the glass from the door must
be done by a licensed or qualified service person.
The glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer. No substitute materials are allowed.
Remove the door (see page 10). The replacement glass will come with a new gasket installed. Remove
any silicone remnants from the door. Apply high temperature silicone to all four faces of the door and
install the new piece of glass with gasket (be sure to maintain edge clearances). Apply even pressure to
the glass to allow the silicone to adhere to the gasket material.
