Ember Installation Guide: 12890-B 02-18

Burn media installation

Experience has shown that the majority of performance problems 
are caused by burn media being installed incorrectly. Please take 
the time to read and follow these instructions as malfunctioning 
due to incorrect burn media placement is not covered by 
warranty.

The Ember MUST NEVER be used with other burn media or burn 
media that is damaged.

Ember 600/700 burn media sets - they are different and can’t be interchanged

The Ember 600 and 700 burn media sets are different. The Ember 600 stone set has six less 
stones and the log set is narrower and shorter—ensure you have the correct kit before starting.

Ember 600 stone set - laid out in 

the correct order

Adding the glass and vermiculite

This step is common to both models and both types of burn media. It requires 
removing the upper burn media tray to access the mesh holding tray.

1.

Unscrew the left and right tray screws to lift off the upper mesh holding tray.

2.

Carefully empty the bags of vermiculite and glass into the mesh tray, 

blend

 together 

and

 

level out.

3.

Put the upper tray back in place and re-tighten the screws. 

Positioning guide picture fixed to the unit will help

There should be a wonderful closeup picture secured to the fire to help you decipher what goes 
where. Use this in conjunction with these instructions to help with the installation.
