Yearly Service Procedure
WARNING:
Prior to removing the glass, shut off gas to the
appliance (or remove the batteries from the battery box and shut
off electricity to the fireplace). This prevents any chance of
accidental burner ignition when accessing the firebox.
•
Failure to inspect and maintain the fireplace may lead to improper combustion and a potentially dangerous
situation. We recommend the following procedures be done by a qualified technician.
1. Remove the glass frame and log set (
NOTE: the logs are very fragile -
see page 16). If severely
deteriorated, replace. Check the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is
normal. If excessive sooting is found, the fireplace will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.
2. Inspect the burner and remove any debris.
•
Make sure the burner is not warped, cracked, or damaged.
•
Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage.
•
If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.
3. Replace the log set. Clean and replace the glass. If the glass is damaged, replace. Make sure the gasket
along the perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an air-tight seal. If it does not,
re-align or replace the gasket to insure an air-tight seal.
4. Start the burner. The flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the top of the firebox. If the pilot or
main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service.
5. Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact your dealer if any sooting or
deterioration is found near the vent termination.
