CLEANING and MAINTENANCE

 

WARNING

Turn off gas before servicing fireplace. It

 

 

 

 

is recommended that a qualified service

 

 

technician perform these check-ups at

 

 

the beginning of each heating season.

 

 

 

BURNER, PILOT AND CONTROL COMPARTMENT

Keep the control compartment, logs and burner areas surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year. Make sure the burner porting, pilot air opening and burner air openings are free of obstructions at all times.

PILOT FLAME

The flames from the pilot should be visually checked as soon as the heater is installed and periodically during normal operation. The pilot flame must always be present when the fireplace is in operation. Figure 26. The pilot flame has three distinct flames, one engulfing the thermopile, one engulfing the thermo- couple and the other reaching to the main burner.

BURNER

Inspect area around the injector. Remove any lint or foreign material with a brush or vacuum.

BURNER FLAME

The flames from the burner should be visually checked as soon as the heater is installed and periodically during normal operation. In normal operation, at full rate, and after oper- ating for about 15 to 30 minutes, the flame should be yellow and slightly taller than the rear log. Figure 27

NOTE: The type of installation, vent system configuration and wind effects may cause the flame patterns to vary.
