FINE TUNING THE EMBER-FYRE™ BURNER
Each installation is affected by altitude, vent configuration, and fuel quality. Because of this, the
restrictor and air shutter may need to be fine tuned to each installation. Follow the hints below to fine-
tune the burner for optimum performance and aesthetics.
Restrictor Adjustment:
Only those installations determined to be over-drafting require this adjustment. See the instructions on
page 14 for details.
Air Shutter Hints:
•
For more glow, open the air shutter, however, this will make the flames more blue.
•
For yellow flames, close the air shutter, however, this may create less glow.
The flames should burn right
off the top of the burner ports
(if they are too blue, adjust
the air control).
Lifting flames indicate
insufficient draft (restrictor
is set too high).

high, air shutter shut down, or
other venting error).

Ghosting Flames
Flickering Flames
Flickering, short flames
indicate excessive draft
(move air shutter to a higher
position).
Warning:
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly the vent may cause the flames inside the heater to
lift or “ghost” – a dangerous situation. Inspect the flames after installation to insure proper
performance. If the vent configuration is correct, yet the flames are lifting or ghosting, shut off gas
to the heater and contact the dealer for information on remedying the problem.
8. Replace the glass.
9. Attach the face following the directions included with the
face.
NOTE
: If using the Classic Arched, Artisan, Metropolitan
or Victorian Lace Face you must use the face mounting
brackets included with the heater (SKU 225-20054). See
page 11 for details.
10. Turn the flame adjust knob to its highest position - the
flames should not contact the top of the firebox. Check
the flame on low position. The flames should burn off of
each burner hole. If the heater does not work correctly,
contact your dealer for a remedy.
