WARNING:
Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or
other accessory not approved for use with this heater.
Candles
Avoid the use of scented or decorative candles while the log set is in
operation. Candles produce a residue in the air that creates a soot like

the problem. It should be noted that candles, in general, produce
soot. The amount of time burned and the quantity of candles burned
will determine the amount of soot produced and deposited.
Make Owners Aware of Proper Log Set Operation
Properly installed and properly maintained log sets do not deposit
soot on the logs. If users see soot appear on a log, call for service.
Do not continue to operate the log set.
