PLACE FLICkERING EMBERS

Place flickering bright embers (FBE-1G) after placing logs on burner. Pull apart into small 

strands and place on top of existing rock wool in front of and between front logs where they 

can be seen. Try to avoid stacking these embers on top of each other. Use smaller, stringier 

strands for maximum effect. Use as much as needed until desired effect is achieved.
