pilot and burners
•Remove material before cleaning burners and replace when cleaning is complete.
•Burner and controls should be cleaned with compressed air to remove dust, dirt or lint.
•Use a vacuum cleaner or small, soft bristled brush to remove excess dust, dirt or lint.
logs
•Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any carbon buildup on logs.
•Replace material periodically as needed. See Replacement Parts.
venting system
Conduct annual inspection of the venting system following these guidelines:
1.Check areas of venting system that are exposed to the weather for corrosion (rust spots or streaks and, in extreme cases, holes). Have these items replaced im- mediately by a qualified service person.
2.Remove the vent cap and shine a flash- light into the vent. Remove any foreign material.
3.Check for evidence of excessive con- densation. Continuous condensation can cause corrosion of caps, pipes and fittings and can be caused by having excessive lateral runs, too many elbows or exterior portions of the system being exposed to cold weather.
4.Inspect joints to verify that no pipe section or fitting has been disturbed and loos- ened. Check mechanical supports such as wall straps for rigidity.
