Burner and Burner Compartment
It is important to keep the burner and the burner compartment clean. At least once per year the logs and lava rock/ember material should be removed and the burner compartment vacuumed and wiped out. Remove and refit the logs as per the instructions in this manual.
Always handle the logs with care as they are fragile and may also be hot if the fireplace has been in use.
Cleaning the Control System
The burner and control system consist of:
• burner tube | • gas orifice |
•pilot assembly • gas valve
Most of these components may require only an occasional checkup and cleaning and some may require adjustment. If repair is necessary, it should be performed by a qualified technician.
1.Turn off main gas
2.Allow fireplace to cool if it has been operating.
3.Remove window frame assembly. (Refer to Window Frame Assembly Removal section.)
4.Remove logs.
5.Vacuum burner compartment especially around orifice primary air openings.
6.Visually inspect pilot. Brush or blow away any dust or lint accumulation.
7.Reinstall logs.
8.Ignite pilot - Refer to Lighting Instructions.
9.Reinstall window frame assembly.
To obtain proper operation, it is imperative that the pilot and burner’s flame characteristics are steady, not lifting or floating.
Typically, the top 3/8” or 1/2” of the pilot flame sensor should be engulfed in the pilot flame. (Page 33, Fig. 51)
To adjust pilot burner:
1.Locate pilot adjustment screw on the valve next to the black plastic cap. (Refer to Page 35)
2.Adjust pilot screw to provide proper sized flame. Only a small adjustment should be needed.
NOTE: Do not rotate screw excessively. Do not adjust any other screws on the valve.
