Operating Your Fireplace for the First Time
When operating your new
fi
replace for the
fi
rst time,
some vapors may be released due to the burning of
curing compounds used in the manufacture of the
appliance. They may cause a slight odor and could
cause the
fl
ames to be the full height of the
fi
rebox, or
even slightly higher, for the
fi
rst few hours of operation.
It is also possible that these vapors could set off any
smoke detection alarms in the immediate vicinity.
These vapors are quite normal on new appliances. We
recommend opening a window to vent the room. After
a few hours use, the vapors will have disappeared and
the
fl
ames will be at their normal height.
