Note: The flame solenoid is assembled and preset from the factory. Should it become necessary to reinstall the flame solenoid, refer to the follwing sections (12.D & 12.E) for proper reinstallation.
D. Install Flame Solenoid
•Remove the screw and knob from the variable regulator and discard.
•Remove the nut from the regulator and discard.
•Remove the bag containing a washer and blue and red plungers from the side of the flame control solenoid.
•Place washer on flame control solenoid.
•Insert the correct plunger (blue - natural gas, red - propane) into the flame control solenoid.
•Thread the flame control solenoid with correct plunger into the threaded hole in the variable regulator. Turn into valve approximately two full turns. Do not tighten or damage may occur.
•Connect orange wires from control box to the flame control solenoid.
E. Setting Flame Height/Manifold Pressure
(To be done by a qualified service technician.) Upon initial
•Loosen output pressure tap on valve and connect with pressure manometer.
•Press flame button once; fireplace will light with flames on high.
•Turn solenoid clockwise to increase pressure, counterclockwise to decrease pressure until manifold pressure on high is 3.5 in. water column for natural gas (NG), 10.0 in. water column for propane (LP).
•Once pressure is achieved spin jam nut on solenoid tight against regulator face to prevent rotation. Do not overtighten.
•Press flame button twice to turn fireplace off.
•Remove manometer tube and tighten or close pressure tap. Use a commercially available, noncorrosive leak check solution to carefully check the pressure tap for leaks. Be sure to rinse off all leak check solution following testing.
