the vertical part of the carry over tube to aid lighting
the bottom burner pan. See Figure 8a.
Cover the rest of the exposed tube with additional
rock wool pieces. See Figures 8b and 8c.

Note:
For best results, do not pack down the rock wool
except around the carry over tube. The placement of rock
wool can have an effect on flame pattern and may need to
be adjusted to achieve a desired appearance.
Figure 9- Adjusting of Flame Pattern
•
Inspect the pilot burner to ensure it is clear of any
rock wool
.
• Remove the Platinum Bright Embers™ from the package.
For optimum performance peel each piece apart in layers
and lightly place on top of the vermiculite and rock wool
where the flame is blue. This will achieve the desired
realism.
• The gas burns at the point of the least resistance. In
case of an uneven flame pattern it may be necessary to
adjust the materials in the pans (using an object such as
a screwdriver) to achieve the desired effect. See Figure
9.
• Place desired amount of lava granules on the floor of the
fireplace. DO NOT ALLOW THE GRANULES TO COME
IN CONTACT WITH THE FLAMES. (Lava granules may
contain moisture which, when heating, may cause it to pop
out during installation and set-up.) Ensure the controls
and switches are unobstructed after the granules are
installed.
• Place logs. See Service Parts.
• Place accent logs around burner on floor of fireplace.
