Glass Cleaning
It is necessary to periodically clean glass. During start-
up condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of
the glass. This condensation causes lint, dust and other
airborne particles to cling to glass surface.
Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on the
glass. It is therefore recommended the glass be cleaned
two or three times with a non-ammonia based household
cleaner and warm water (We recommend gas fireplace
glass cleaner) within the first few weeks of operation.
After the initial cleaning process the glass should be cleaned
two or three times during each operating season depending
on the environment in the house.
