Before Your First Fire

clean the surface prior to starting

 

the fireplace. Any marks left on the

 

gold may become etched-in by the

 

heat of the fireplace. Use

Soft Cloth

denatured alcohol and a soft cloth

 

to clean.

 

Denatured

Alcohol

Verify the Installation

Before starting the fireplace, verify that the fireplace is properly installed and all of the requirements in the 44 Elite-ZC Installation Manual have been followed.

Keep all flammables 36" away from the front of the fireplace (drapes, furniture, clothing, etc.).

Do not use a fireplace insert or other products not specified for use in this fireplace.

Curing the Paint

2 to 4 hours

This heater uses a heat-activated paint that will emit some fumes while starting the first fire. Open doors and windows to the room to vent these fumes. This typically lasts two to four hours. You may also notice oil burning off of the interior of the heater. This rust-stopping agent will soon dissipate.

Door Gasket – The door gasket might adhere to the paint on the front of the fireplace. Leave the door slightly ajar for the first fire and be careful when opening the door after the first fire.

Over-Firing the Fireplace (Over-Firing may void your warranty)

This fireplace was designed to operate at a high temperature. But due to differences in vent configuration, fuel, and draft, this appliance can be operated at an excessive temperature. If the area behind the faceplate or other area starts to glow red, you are over-firing the fireplace (this may damage the optional gold surface, internal components, and void the warranty). Do not burn excessively large fires for a long time. Shut the air control down and allow the fireplace to cool if you detect over-firing.

Operating the Fireplace During a Power Outage

This fireplace includes a blower to dissipate heat from the firebox. During power outages build small to medium-sized fires to prevent the fireplace from over-firing (especially if you have a gold face).

Acid Wash

Some installations utilize a masonry facing or hearth. This masonry is often cleaned with muriatic acid. This acid may damage gold finish once the fireplace reaches temperature. Verify with your mason that all masonry is fully neutralized using ammonia water or other alkaline.
