Step 10. Installing Trim, Logs, and Ember Material

Installing the Trim

Combustible materials may be brought up to the specified clearances on the side and top front edges of the fireplace, but MUST NEVER overlap onto the front face. The joints between the finished wall and the fireplace top and sides can only be sealed with a 300° F. (149° C) minimum sealant.

!WARNING: WHEN FINISHING THE FIREPLACE, NEVER OBSTRUCT OR MODIFY THE AIR IN- LET/OUTLET GRILLES IN ANY MANNER.

Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits as desired. Marble, brass, brick, tile, or other non-combustible materials can be used to cover up the gap between the sheet rock and the fireplace.

PLACEMENT

Do not obstruct or modify the air inlet/outlet grilles. When overlapping on both sides, leave enough space so that the bottom grille can be raised and the trim door removed.

Positioning the Logs

The gas logs have been factory installed and they should not need to be positioned.

If sooting occurs, the logs might need to be repositioned slightly to avoid excessive flame impingement.

Placing the Ember Material

Ember material is shipped with this gas fireplace. The bag labeled Golden Embers (GE-93) is flame colorant material. The bag labeled Glowing Ember (050-721) is standard glowing ember material.

To place the ember material:

Remove the wing nuts, glass clips and spring clips around the glass door.

Remove the glass door from the unit.

Ember material is to be placed on the burner with cau- tion. NOTE: Do NOT place ember material over burner port holes. Place only dime size pieces along outer edges of port trails. This bag is sized for (4) ember ap- plications. Follow Figure 34 for correct placement. Fail- ure to apply ember material as directed could result in poor lighting conditions and sooting problems. After plac- ing ember material sprinkle GE-93 on top of the burner.

Save the remaining ember materials for use during fire- place servicing.

Replace the wing nut, glass clips and spring clips.

Optional mesh (see Figure 35).
