Finalizing the Installation (for qualified installers only) 3 5

!We recommend you purge the gas line at this time (with the glass removed). This allows gas to be detected once it enters the firebox, ensuring gas does not build up.

3Replace the glass (and arch covers when using arched faces - see page 29).

4Turn on the gas to the fireplace. Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all gas joints prior to starting the appliance. Start the pilot (see page 38). Start the main burner. Leak test all gas joints again.

5Check the pilot flame to make sure it looks like the illustration below. Adjust the pilot flame if necessary.

6Let the heater burn for fifteen minutes. Adjust the rear air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct looking flame (see the illustration below).

The air shutters adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes. They are used to fine-tune the flame for differences in altitude and vent configuration.

This heater uses three air controls. Adjust the controls in or out until the flame looks correct. Pushing in gives the flame less air (making it more orange). Pulling out gives the flame more air, making it more blue.

NOTE: If the air control is all the way open, yet the flames remain sooty, shut off gas to the fireplace and contact a qualified gas service technician.
