INSTALLING FLOOR MEDIA
Lava rock, ember flakes, scrap logs and glowing
embers are included with the log/burner module
models BBM-36(N,P)-JHB, BBM-42(N,P)-
JHB and BBM-50(N,P)-JHB.
1. Follow instructions from
Installing Log/
Burner Module
, page 21.
2. Pull glowing ember material apart into
pieces no larger than a dime. Place these
pieces loosely and sparingly directly onto
exposed burner ports (Figure 36). This
will create the glowing ember appearance
as flame touches ember material. Do not
block air slots by using too much ember
material in one area. Do not block pilot
ports with embers. It is not necessary
to use all of the glowing ember material
provided.
3. Check all joints from propane/LP supply
tank or gas meter to equipment shutoff
valve (see Figure 34 or Figure 35, page
22). Apply noncorrosive leak detection
fluid to all joints. Bubbles forming show
a leak.
4. Correct all leaks at once.
PRESSURE TESTING FIREPLACE GAS
CONNECTIONS
1. Open equipment shutoff valve (see Fig-
ure 33, page 22).
2. Open propane/LP supply tank valve for
propane/LP fireplace or main gas valve
located on or near gas meter for natural
gas fireplace.
3. Make sure control knob of fireplace is in
the OFF position.
4. Check all joints from equipment shutoff
valve to gas valve (see Figure 34 or
Figure 35, page 22). Apply noncorrosive
leak detection fluid to all joints. Bubbles
forming show a leak. Correct all leaks at
once.
5. Light fireplace (see
Operation
, page 25).
Check all other internal joints for leaks.
6. Turn off fireplace (see
To Turn Off Gas to
Appliance
, page 25).
3.
Place ember flakes around front and sides
of burner and on burner ports (see Figure
36). This will create the glowing ember ap-
pearance as the flame touches the ember
flakes. Do not block burner ports or pilot
ports by overlapping ember flakes in one
area. It is not necessary to use all ember
material provided.
4. Place lava rock around base of burner.
Make sure burner ports are not covered
(see Figure 36).
5. Place scrap log pieces randomly as de-
sired on fireplace hearth floor around base
of log set (see Figure 36).
6. Place decorative andirons to the left and
right of log set on the hearth floor. Grate
does not attach to hearth assembly (see
Figure 36).
