D.Creating the Coal Bed Look. Ember Chunks.

Randomly place the ember chunks on the burner tube between and in line with the two front logs, creating a small wall of embers. Do not allow the chunks to cover the burner ports or air holes in the burner tube as this may restrict air and/or gas flow, creating a less than satisfac- tory performance. Too much restriction can cause improp- er combustion and sooting (especially with an appliance using propane gas).

Mineral wool may be bridged over the chunks for greater enhancement.
