Frequently Asked Questions and Troubleshooting
A. Frequently Asked Questions
ISSUE
SOLUTIONS
Condensation on the glass
This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the appliance warms,
this condensation will disappear.
Blue
fl
ames
This is a result of normal operation and the
fl
ames will begin to yellow as the appliance
is allowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
Odor from appliance
When
fi
rst operated, this appliance may release an odor for the
fi
rst several hours.
This is caused by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from
manufacturing. If appliance has not been used for some time, dust can build up and
cause an odor.
Film on the glass
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be
cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the
manufacturing process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas appliance cleaner may be
necessary. See your dealer.
Metallic noise
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down,
similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect
the operation or longevity of the appliance.
