Yearly Service Procedure
WARNING
: Failure to inspect and maintain the stove may lead to improper combustion and a potentially
dangerous situation. We recommend the following procedures be done by a qualified
technician.
Shut off gas to the fireplace and let it cool for 15 minutes. Remove the glass. Inspect and operate the
pressure relief mechanism to verify relief mechanisms are free from obstruction to operate.
Clean glass window with a suitable fireplace glass cleaner. Abrasive cleaners must not be used. Be
careful not to scratch the glass when cleaning.
Vacuum and clean any debris in the firebox.
Check all accessible gas-carrying tubes, connections, pipes and other components for leaks.
Inspect the burner and firebox. Make sure the burner is not warped, cracked, or damaged. Check the
firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no damage. Inspect primary air openings for
blockage. If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.
Inspect the area behind the access door; clean if necessary. Check the gas control valve and the gas
lines. If damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service. Clean the air channels,
ducts, and blower (if applicable)
Inspect vent and vent termination for sooting, obstructions, or damage. Make repairs as needed.
Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact your dealer if any sooting or
deterioration is found near the vent termination.
Reinstall the glass assembly. If the glass is damaged, replace. Make sure the gasket along the
perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an air-tight seal. If it does not, re-align or
replace the gasket to insure an air-tight seal.
Turn the pilot flame on (continuous pilot). It should touch approximately 3/8" of the top of the flame
sensor (see below). If it does not, contact your dealer.
Start the main burner. Inspect and ensure the lighting of the main burner occurs within 4 seconds of the
main gas valve opening.
Test the flame failure response time of the flame safety system. It must de-energize the safety shutoff in
no more than 30 seconds.
After 15 minutes the flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the top of the firebox. If the pilot or
main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service. Monitor blower operation
