Maintenance And Service
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE:
At least once a year, run through the following procedures to ensure the system is clean and working properly. Check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean. Check the pilot to make sure it is not blocked by anything. The pilot flame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.
Warning: Clearances must be sufficient to allow access for maintenance and service
Warning: Failure to position the parts in accordance with this manual, or failure to use only parts specifically approved with this appliance may result in property damage or personal injury.
The venting system must be periodically examined; it is recommended the examination is done by a qualified agency.
CLEANING THE GLASS:
When the fireplace has cooled, remove the face of the fireplace along with the glass. See MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE - GLASS DOOR REMOVAL. Check the gasket material on the back of the glass, making sure that it is attached and intact.
During a cold start up, condensation will sometimes form on the glass. This is a normal condition with all fireplaces. However, this condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial paint curing of the appliance can leave a slight film behind the glass, a temporary problem. The glass will need cleaning about two weeks after installation. Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth; abrasive cleaners will damage the glass and plated surfaces. Depending on the amount of use, the glass should require cleaning no more than two or three times a season. Do not clean the glass when it is hot.
CLEANING THE FIREBOX:
Remove the logs carefully, as they are very fragile. Gently remove all the embers and rock wool and place on a paper towel. Vacuum the bottom of the firebox thoroughly. Carefully clean any dust off the logs and remove any lint from the burner and pilot. At this time, inspect the burner pan for cracking or severe warping. If a problem is suspected, contact the dealer. Check the logs for deterioration or large amounts of soot; a small amount on the bottom side of the logs is normal. Replace the logs and embers as in the LOG SET AND EMBER INSTALLATION section. If new/more embers and rock wool are required, contact your nearest ENVIRO dealer.
CHANGE BATTERY IN IGNITION MODULE:
If the unit does not spark when lighting, the battery in the electronic ignition could need replacing.
Located on the left hand rear corner of the unit is a small rectangular hole. Located here is the electronic ignition module (see Figure 5). Remove the battery cover, located on the left side of the module, and replace the AA battery.
Reinstall the battery cover and check for spark by depressing the pilot knob located on the control panel.
