Burner and Burner Compartment

It is important to keep the burner and the burner compartment clean. At least once per year the logs and lava rock/ember material should be removed and the burner compartment vacuumed and wiped out. Remove and replace the logs as per the instructions in this manual.

Always handle the logs with care as they are fragile and may also be hot if the fireplace has been in use.

Contact your local representative to arrange an annual service program.
