MAXUS DIRECT VENT HEATER
If using lava rock, this rail must be installed to keep
the lava rock from interfering with the glass gasket or
retainers. Disperse the lava rock and spread it on the
hearth pan being careful not to cover the burner pan.
The lava rock will simulate the look of burnt coals.
The lava rock does not change the flame and does
not have to be used. It is not necessary to use the
entire bag. Save the remaining rock for future use.
See Figure 44.
6. Place the Vermiculite
Sprinkle the vermiculite over the lava rock to simulate
an ash-like appearance to the “coals”. As with the
lava rock, stay clear of the burner pan and it is not
necessary to use the entire bag. Save the remaining
vermiculite for future use See Figure 45.
7. Place the Fire Glow
Fire Glow (Fire 98) is a flame colorant material that
also adds to the realism of the gas appliance flame.
After placing the rock wool in the appliance, sprinkle
some of the Fire Glow (Fire 98) on top of the burner.
As with the lava rock, vermiculite and rock wool, it is
not necessary to use the entire bag. Save the
remaining Fire Glow for future use. See Figure 46.
