For Masonry and Factory- built Metal Fireplace
If your log set cycles to pilot, but the room temperature drops to a lower than ideal comfort level
3.With 5/16" hex driver or socket, loosen the thermostat screw. Carefully slide the thermostat sensing bulb out of the retaining clamp (see Figure 36).
Note: Do not remove the screw. Make sure you tighten the screw after remov- ing the thermostat sensing bulb.
IMPORTANT: Do not force or bend the thermostat sensing bulb or capillary.
If your fireplace has glass doors, position sensing bulb directly behind door gap on right bottom side (see Figure 39).

The thermostat sensing bulb is located on the gas valve assembly. This location allows the thermostat to keep the room temperature at an ideal comfort level for most fireplace applications. For position- ing the thermostat sensing bulb elsewhere, an

5.The mounting clip must be a minimum of 3" from bottom of fireplace to pre- vent crimping of capillary. Once you have decided on a location, clean the area thoroughly. Remove the paper backing from the adhesive on back of mounting clip. Press the clip into the new location so that the thermostat sensing bulb will be positioned verti- cally with the capillary at the bottom (see Figure 40). Slide the thermostat sensing bulb into the clip.
IMPORTANT: Do not crimp capillary.
