Maintenance

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 replace 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. FK24/FK12 Fan Assembly

The fan unit requires periodic cleaning. At least once per month in the operating season, open the lower louvre panels and wipe or vacuum the area around the fan to remove any build up of dust or lint.

Brass Trim

Clean the brass trim pieces using a soft cloth lightly dampened with lemon oil. Do not use water or household cleaners on any brass components.

Contact your local representative to arrange an annual service program.
