MAINTENANCE & SERvICE fOR ThE hOMEOWNER
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off some
expansion and/or contraction noise during the start up or cool
down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat
exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your gas fireplace to give off some odor the
first time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and
burning off of any undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
ensure that your room is well ventilated - open all windows.
Empire recommends that you burn the fireplace for at least
six hours the first time you use it. If an optional fan kit has
been installed, set the fan control in the “ Off ” position
during this initial burning.

fireplace must be replaced prior to operating the fireplace.
• only glass approved for use by the manufacturer in the
fireplace may be used for replacement. The use of glass not
approved by the manufacturer will void all warranties. The
glass replacement should be done by a licensed or qualified
service person.
Cleaning the glass Door
While the fireplace is in operation, condensation may form on
the inside of the glass. This is normal. However, it can cause lint,
dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.
The initial paint curing (during the first use of the fireplace) may
also deposit a slight film on the glass. empire Comfort Systems
recommends the use of glass cleaner specifically designed
for use on gas fireplace glass. It may take several cleanings
to completely remove any build-up after the first use of the
fireplace. After the first cleaning, the glass should be cleaned
two or three times during each heating season depending on the
circumstances present.
Clean the barrier Screen
The barrier screen can be cleaned using a damp cloth and a
household cleaner. Remove the barrier screen from the glass
door before cleaning.
