Ember Placement

Place the embers along the firebox floor and burner to help conceal the burner. Make sure none of the embers are directly over the burner holes. See the photo below.

Note how the embers do not cover any burner holes. Place the embers around the burner to create a realistic effect.

Rock Wool Placement

This fireplace is shipped with a larger amount of rock wool to provide the proper coverage needed on this large burner. The rock wool must be pulled apart and made into a thin gauze prior to placing over the burner. See the illustration below for details.

NOTE: Propane (LP) units use a lighter amount of rock wool than natural gas units.

Preparing the Rock Wool:

The rock wool comes in one clump. Tear off “dime” sized clumps and flatten. Then pull on the wool to create gauze-like pieces. The wool glows best when very thin and porous.

Place small pieces of rock wool next to the burner holes in visible locations. Place the rock wool sparingly so it does not cover large areas of the burner.

WARNING: If the rock wool is too thick or placed so it obstructs the flow of gas, sooting will occur.
