Annual Inspection List for Determining Safe Operation of a Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
Refer to this checklist for proper maintenance, safe use, and operation.
See each section for more specific information.
1.
Inspect and operate all pressure relief mechanisms (i.e., explosion dampers, spring loaded door latches)
installed on your appliance to verify relief mechanisms are free from obstruction to operate.
2.
Clean glass window with a suitable fireplace glass cleaner. Abrasive cleaners must not be used. Be careful not
to scratch the glass when cleaning.
3.
Inspect the operation of the Pilot. Ensure that it is working properly.
4.
Inspect and ensure the lighting of the main burner occurs within 4 seconds of the main gas valve opening.
Visual inspection should match that outlined in the appliance instruction manual (refer to
Monthly Flame
Inspection
). Inspect primary air openings for blockage.
5.
Inspect condition of vent and vent terminal for sooting or obstruction and correct if present.
6.
Vacuum and clean any debris in the firebox that is not supposed to be there.
7.
Test and measure the flame failure response time of the flame safety system. It must de-energize the safety
shutoff in no more than 30 seconds.
Procedure for Millivolt Units:
Turn on fireplace for 5 minutes. Shut off fireplace while listening to valve. A
“click” should be heard within 30 seconds. This indicates the safety shutoff is working properly.
Procedure for IPI Units:
Turn on fireplace and allow main burner to come on. Then disconnect Flame Sense
wire from IPI Module (X3 Connection). The fireplace should shut down immediately.
8.
Check all accessible gas-carrying tubes, connections, pipes and other components for leaks.
