Cleaning Your Heater

Warning: Fingerprints or other marks left on the optional gold surface may become etched in place if they are not wiped clean prior to turning the stove on.

With the heater cool, use denatured alcohol and a soft cloth to clean gold surfaces. Other cleaners may leave a film that may become etched into the gold.

Yearly Service Procedure

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

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

2Shut off gas to the heater by turning the gas control knob to “OFF” (see step A under “Starting the Pilot” on page 22). Let the heater cool for 15 minutes. Open the door (see page 19).

3Remove the log set and embers (see page 20 - NOTE: the log set is fragile). If any log is cracked or deteriorated, replace it when re-installing. Check the logs for sooting. If excessive sooting is found, the heater will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.

4Clean the burner pan (especially the burner holes) and inspect the following:

•Check for burner for cracks, warps, or other damage.

•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.

Check the burner holes.

Make sure the burner is not warped or damaged.

Before Disassembly - Check the pilot flame. It should touch the thermocouple and thermopile.

5Replace the log set. Inspect the glass gasket. If it is deteriorated, replace. If the glass is damaged, replace it.

6Check the gas control valve and all of the gas lines. If any damage is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service. Clean the air channels and ducts.

7To check the door seal, place a dollar bill along the door perimeter then close and latch the door. If the dollar bill is held in place securely, the door seal is adequate. However, it the dollar bill slides out easily, you should adjust the door. Contact your dealer to obtain directions on tightening the door seal.

8Start 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.

9Remove any debris or vegetation near the vent termination. Contact your dealer if any sooting or deterioration is found near the vent termination.
