Maintaining Your Fireplace's Appearance

Fingerprints or other marks left on the optional plated surface may become etched in place if they are not wiped clean prior to turning the fireplace on. Clean the plated surface with denatured alcohol and a soft cloth (with the fireplace cool). Other cleaners may leave a film that may become etched into the surface.

Yearly Service Procedure

Failure to inspect and maintain the fireplace may lead to improper combustion and a potentially dangerous situation. We recommend the following procedures be done by a qualified technician.

1.Check the pilot flame. It should touch approximately 3/8" of the top of the thermopile and touch the top of the thermocouple (see illustration below). If it does not, contact your dealer for service.

2.Shut off gas to the fireplace by turning the gas control knob to "OFF" (see step A under "Starting the Pilot" on page 7). Let the fireplace cool for 15 minutes. Remove the glass (see page 10).

3.Remove the log set (NOTE: the logs are very fragile - see page 15). If severely deteriorated, replace. Check the logs for sooting. A small amount of soot along the bottom of the logs is normal. If excessive sooting is found, the fireplace will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.

4.Inspect the burner and remove any debris.

Make sure the burner is not warped, cracked, or damaged.

Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage.

If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.

Check the walls and ceiling of the firebox for deterioration.

Before Disassembly - Check the pilot flame (it can be viewed from the front - you will need to look under the center log). It should touch the thermocouple and thermopile.

Check the burner holes.

Make sure the burners are not warped or damaged.

5.Replace the log set. Clean and replace the glass (see Glass Cleaning on page 25). If the glass is damaged, replace. Make sure the gasket along the perimeter of the glass contacts the face of the firebox and forms an air-tight seal. If it does not, re-align or replace the gasket to insure an air-tight seal.

6.Inspect the area behind the access door. Clean if necessary. Check the gas control valve and the gas lines. If damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service. Clean the air channels, ducts, and blower (if applicable).

7.Start the pilot and turn on the main burner. The flames should be orange/yellow and not touch the top of the firebox. If the pilot or main burners do not burn correctly, contact your dealer for service. Monitor the blower operation.

8.Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact your dealer if any sooting or deterioration is found near the vent termination.
