GLASS CLEANING

It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During start-up condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass and causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface. Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on the glass. It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or three times with a non-ammonia household cleaner and warm water (we recommend gas fireplace glass cleaner). After that the glass should be cleaned two or three times during each heating season depending on the circustances present.

Clean glass after first two weeks of operation. Do not clean glass when hot.

Do not use abrasive cleaners. Do not strike or slam the glass.
