Maintenance of Fire Pit
Under normal use, this unit will require only limited cleaning.
To clean, first turn the control knob to “Off” and allow system to cool.
1)
Keep fire pit covered at all times when not in use.
2) Ring Cleaning: If flames exhibit any abnormal shapes or behavior, or if burner fails to ignite properly, then the
burner holes may require cleaning. If this occurs, it is preferable to contact your nearest dealer to get the appliance
serviced. Alternatively, the appliance can be cleaned by carefully removing the logs and media to allow access to
burner. Use a brush to carefully remove dust, spider webs, and loose particles from base, logs, and fire ring itself.
3) Visually inspect the pilot- remove any dust or soot accumulating. The pilot flame should cover 3/8” to 1/2” of the
thermocouple as shown below.
