thermodisc is fitted, it is not necessary to operate the
switch on the fascia. It can be kept permanently on at
the desired speed setting. The fascia switch overrides
the thermodisc if it is set in the central “off” position.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS OF
GAS APPLIANCES
It is possible that you will hear some sounds from your
gas appliance. This is perfectly normal due to the fact
that there are various gauges and types of steel used
within your appliance. Listed below are some
examples,
all are normal operating sounds and these should
not be considered as defects in your appliance.
Fan:
Masport gas appliances use high tech blowers to push
heated air further into the room. It is not unusual for
the fan to make a "whirring" sound when ON. This
sound will increase or decrease in volume depending
on the speed setting of your fan.
Burner Tray:
The burner tray is positioned directly under the burner
and logs and is made of a different gauge material
from the rest of the firebox and body. Therefore, the
varying thicknesses of steel will expand and contract at
slightly different rates, which can cause "ticking" and
"cracking" sounds. You should also be aware that as
there are temperature changes within the unit these
sounds would likely re-occur, again, this is normal for
steel fireboxes.
Pilot Flame (Piccolo Only):
While the pilot flame is on it can make a very slight
"whisper" sound.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valve turns ON and OFF, a dull
clicking sound may be audible, this is normal operation
of a gas regulator or valve.
Unit Body/Firebox:
Different types and thicknesses of steel will expand
and contract at different rates resulting in some
"cracking" and "ticking" sounds being heard throughout
the cycling process.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Keep the burner and control compartment clean by
brushing and vacuuming at least once a year.
Always turn the gas valve to OFF before cleaning.
When cleaning the logs, use a clean soft
paintbrush, as the logs are fragile and easily
damaged.
2) Clean the appliance, glass and louvres with a
damp cloth only when it is cold. Never use an
abrasive cleaner. The gold louvres will be
scratched if abrasives are used to clean them.
The heater is finished in a heat resistant paint and
should only be refinished with heat resistant paint
(not with wall paint).
3) Keep the area near the appliance clear and free
from combustible materials, petrol and other
flammable vapours and liquids.
WARNING: CHILDREN AND ADULTS SHOULD
BE ALERTED TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH
SURFACE TEMPERATURE AND SHOULD
STAY AWAY TO AVOID BURNS OR CLOTHING
IGNITION. YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE
CAREFULLY SUPERVISED WHEN THEY ARE
IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE APPLIANCE.
CAUTION: ANY SAFETY SCREEN OR GUARD
REMOVED FOR SERVICING AN APPLIANCE
MUST BE REPLACED PRIOR TO OPERATING
THE APPLIANCE. (Australia only)
CLOTHING
OR
OTHER
FLAMMABLE
MATERIAL SHOULD NOT BE PLACED ON OR
NEAR THE APPLIANCE.
4) Periodically check the pilot flames (Piccolo only),
there should be three strong flames (approx. 19
mm long) - 1 flame to the rear burner, 1 to the
ignition electrode and 1 to the thermocouple.
If you have an incorrect flame pattern, contact your
Masport dealer.
SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
(Routine maintenance schedule)
Servicing must be carried out only by authorised
personnel.
Your Masport heater must be checked yearly by an
authorised Technician. This periodic maintenance
should cover the following points:-
1) Keep the burner and control compartment and any
air entry points clean by brushing and vacuuming.
Always turn the gas valve to OFF before cleaning.
When cleaning the logs, use a clean soft
paintbrush, as the logs are fragile and easily
damaged.
2) Make a periodic check of burner for proper log
position and condition. Visually check the flame
pattern of the burner periodically, making sure the
flames are steady, not lifting or floating.
3) The appliance and flue system must be inspected
before use and thereafter annually to ensure that
the flow of combustion and ventilation air is not
