FIRST FIRE | OPERATING |
When lit for the fi rst time, the fi replace will emit a slight odour for a couple of hours. This is due to the curing of paints, seal- ants and lubricants used in the manufacturing process. This condition is temporary. Open doors and windows to ventilate area. Smoke and fumes caused by the curing process may cause discomfort to some individuals.
It is normal for fi replaces fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or cook stove oven.
The Town and Country Fireplace comes equipped with either a manual (millivolt) combination gas valve or an electronic gas valve. An optional wall switch or thermostat (Canada only) may be installed to operate the burner automatically on both types of valve.
Manual Valve: Once a pilot light has been established, and the gas valve knob turned to the "ON" position (Manual Valve) or simply switched on with the "Burner" switch, the unit may be operated in one of two ways; manually adjusting the fl ame and/or turning the unit on and off automatically with a wall thermostat.
