Opening and Removing Door
CAUTION: Do not open the glass door when the fireplace is
burning. Let the unit cool before opening the door. At the top of
the glass door are two spring-loaded latches. While holding the
door against the firebox, pull each latch forward and up - releas-
ing the top of the glass door. To remove the door, grasp it firmly
with both hands and lift it up so the two tabs at the bottom of
the door are lifted out of their retaining slots. The glass door is
quite heavy, so it is important to place it in a secure spot until
reinstalled. To reinstall the door, the tabs at the bottom of the
door must be inserted in the slots at the bottom of the firebox.
The spring loaded latches must be pulled forward and down to
apply pressure against the door.
Blower Removal
Disconnect the power supply at the household electrical panel prior to
blower removal. The blower can be accessed through the back wall of
the firebox.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servic-
ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
See the fan wiring diagram on
Page 20
for reference. Remove the fireplace
face, glass door, log set and brick panels. All of these items are fragile
so handle them with care. Remove the two allen head screws at the left
and right rear of the air control panel and lift the panel out. At the lower
rear of the firebox is a piece of angled metal fastened by two allen head
screws at each end. Remove these four screws and the piece of metal.
Next, remove the six allen head screws around the outside of the panel
fastened to the back wall of the firebox. Shift this panel about an inch to
the left and then pull it forward. The blower is fastened to the back of this
panel. Pull the two wire connectors from the terminals on the blower and
remove the blower and panel from the firebox. To reinstall the blower,
repeat these steps in the reverse order.
Fuel Conversion
Converting the Ravelle™ 30 gas fireplace between natural gas and LP can
be accomplished by either changing the cassette (valve and pilot assembly)
or installing a conversion kit (regulator, burner orifice and changing the
orifice position on the pilot). Only a qualified service technician should
perform the conversion.
Cassette Removal:
1. Be sure the gas supply is shut off and the fireplace electrical supply is
shut off at the electrical panel before beginning the cassette removal.
Disconnect the gas supply from the fireplace, being careful not to apply
pressure to the valve in the process.
2. Remove the log set and brick panels (see Brick Panel and Log Set
Installation).
3. Remove the two allen head screws at the left and right rear of the firebox
securing the air control panel. Lift out the air control panel.
4. Remove the one allen head screw holding the burner in place. Grasp the
burner air shutter with your left hand and the burner with your right hand
and pull the right end of the burner up and to the right, releasing the air
shutter from the air shutter linkage wire.
5. Disconnect the wire from the back of the piezo igniter (push button
igniter).
6. Mark and disconnect wires on valve terminals #1 and #3 connected to
the burner on/off switch or thermostat.
7. Remove all six allen head screws (around the perimeter of the cassette
panel) fastening the cassette to the firebox. The cassette is sealed to the
fireplace using a high temperature gasket. Handle the gasket carefully
for use in reinstalling the cassette.
8. Grasp the air shutter linkage wire in your left hand and pull it up as you lift
and rotate the rear of the cassette panel up and through the firebox.
9. Install new, converted, or serviced cassette in the reverse order of removal.
Reuse the cassette panel gasket to ensure an air tight seal between the
firebox and the cassette.
10. All parts and wires must be correctly reinstalled to ensure safe and
proper operation of the unit. Check for gas leaks prior to burning the
fireplace.
Conversion Kit:
Please see instructions provided with conversion kit.

Glass/Door Maintenance
Cleaning:
When cool, the glass may be cleaned with a clean, soft cloth
and a household glass cleaner. For cleaning white condensation from the
interior glass use a gas fireplace glass cleaner available from your fireplace
dealer. Use of caustic or abrasive cleaners may damage glass. Gold or
nickel plated doors must be cleaned with a household glass cleaner or
denatured alcohol and a soft cloth before firing or fingerprints and stains
will remain permanently. Never use abrasive polish to clean the gold or
nickel as it will ruin the finish. DO NOT operate fireplace with broken
glass. DO NOT clean door or glass when hot. DO NOT abuse glass door
by striking or slamming shut. DO NOT use substitute materials if replac-
ing glass. DO NOT spray commercial glass cleaner with ammonia on the
door and glass gasket as it may dissolve the gasket glue.
WARNING: Do not operate appliance with the glass panel re-
moved, cracked, or broken. Do not remove the glass door while
the fireplace is hot. Replacement of the glass door should be
done by a qualified service technician.
Glass Replacement:
The glass in the fireplace door cannot be replaced
separately. Should the glass be damaged, the entire glass, gasket and
frame assembly should be replaced as a unit. This replacement glass as-
sembly is available from your Lennox Hearth Products dealer. The glass
is neo-ceramic and alternative types must not be used.
