Radiance
®
Direct Vent Gas Heater
Your Radiance Gas Heater will provide years of service with
minimal upkeep. The following procedures will help ensure
that your stove continues to function properly.
ANNUAL SYSTEM INSPECTION
Have the entire heater and venting system inspected
annually by a qualified gas technician. Replace any worn
or broken parts.
LOGSET AND BURNER / CLEANING AND
INSPECTION
Cleanliness is critical to the proper function of the heater.
The logset and burner must all be kept free of dust and
unobstructed by debris. Inspect these areas before each
use and clean as necessary.
1. Turn the burner OFF and let the heater cool com-
pletely before cleaning.
2. Remove the safety barrier and lift the stove front up
and then swing the bottom out to disengage it from
the heater shell. (Figure 90)
3. Carefully remove the glass and frame assembly and
place it out of the way on a flat, padded surface such
as a counter protected by a towel.
4. Carefully inspect the Logs for damage. Contact your
local dealer if any damage is evident.
5. Use a soft bristled brush to sweep dust or debris from
the Logs, Pilot and Burner. Use care as the logs are
fragile and susceptible to damage.
6. Replace the glass panel and frame assembly.
7. Replace the stove front and safety barrier.
CARE OF CAST IRON
An occasional dusting with a dry rag will help keep the
painted surfaces looking new. Use high-temperature stove
paints, available through your local dealer, to touch-up
areas as needed. Clean areas to be painted with a wire
brush and be sure to cover the logs, burner and valve
assembly, glass and frame assembly. Apply the paint
sparingly; two light coats of paint will give better results
than a single heavy coat.
Clean porcelain enamel surfaces with a soft, damp cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. If necessary, use only
a cleaning agent formulated especially for use on porcelain
enamel surfaces.
CLEANING THE GLASS
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During
start-up, condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside
of the glass and causes lint, dust and other airborne par-
ticles to cling to the glass surface. Also initial paint curing
may deposit a slight film on the glass. It is therefore rec
-
ommended that the glass be cleaned two or three times
with a non-ammonia household cleaner and warm water
(we recommend gas stove glass cleaner). After that the
glass should be cleaned two or three times during each
heating season depending on the circumstances present.
NOTE: Clean glass after first two weeks of oper
-
ation.
