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.

It will be necessary to clean the ceramic glass periodically. 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 initially after the first 4 hours of use and again about two (2) weeks after installation. Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth; abrasive cleaners will damage the glass and enamel 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.

The ignition module is located at the far left behind the valve cover (see Figure 4). 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.

Enviro Ascot is a cutting-edge innovation in sustainable living, a forward-thinking development that marries modern architecture with eco-friendly technologies. Nestled in a prime location, Enviro Ascot is designed to minimize environmental impact while maximizing the quality of life for its residents. The project stands as a testament to how urban spaces can be designed sustainably without compromising on aesthetics or functionality.

One of the main features of Enviro Ascot is its emphasis on energy efficiency. The buildings are equipped with state-of-the-art insulation materials and energy-efficient windows that help to reduce heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. Solar panels placed on rooftops harness renewable energy, providing a significant portion of the electricity needs for the community. This not only lowers utility costs but also significantly reduces the carbon footprint of the development.

Water conservation is another hallmark of Enviro Ascot. The community features a rainwater harvesting system that collects and stores rainwater for use in irrigation and other non-potable applications. This initiative not only conserves precious water resources but also alleviates pressure on local water supply systems. Additionally, drought-resistant landscaping has been incorporated into the design, ensuring that the green spaces remain vibrant even during dry spells.

In terms of transportation, Enviro Ascot promotes a car-free lifestyle with extensive biking and walking paths interwoven throughout the community. Charging stations for electric vehicles are available at strategic locations, encouraging the use of eco-friendly transportation. The design is pedestrian-centric, making it easy for residents to access essential services, parks, and amenities without the need for a car.

Furthermore, the community boasts smart home technologies that enhance convenience and sustainability. Homes are outfitted with smart thermostats, energy-monitoring systems, and home automation features, allowing residents to optimize their energy use seamlessly. Through a centralized app, residents can monitor energy consumption, schedule heating and cooling, and even control lighting and security systems from their smartphones.

The architectural design of Enviro Ascot reflects a contemporary aesthetic while being practical. Natural materials and earthy color palettes integrate the buildings into the surrounding environment, creating a harmonious blend with nature. Green roofs and living walls add to the biodiversity of the area, providing habitats for various species and improving air quality.

In conclusion, Enviro Ascot is not just a residential development; it is a vision for the future of sustainable living. With its commitment to energy efficiency, water conservation, and innovative technologies, it stands as a model for environmentally responsible urban design. Residents of Enviro Ascot enjoy a lifestyle that is both modern and eco-conscious, paving the way for a sustainable future.
