Maintenance

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.

Fan Assembly

The fan unit requires periodic cleaning. At least once

per month in the operating season, open the lower

louvre panels and wipe or vacuum the area around the

fan to remove any build up of dust or lint.

Cleaning the Standing Pilot

Control System

The burner and control system consists of:

• main burner • pilot burner

• gas orifice • thermopile

• combination millivolt gas valve

Most of these components may require only an occa-

sional checkup and cleaning and some may require

adjustment. If repair is necessary, it should be per-

formed by a qualified technician.

In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly,

turn off the gas to the unit, remove the window frame

panel and logs exposing the burner and pilot assembly.

Clean all foreign materials from the top of the burner.

Check to make sure that burner parts are clean.

Visually inspect pilot. Brush or blow away any dust or

lint accumulation. If pilot orifice is plugged, disassembly

may be required to remove any foreign material from

the orifice or tubing.

To obtain proper operation, it is imperative that the pilot

and burner's flame characteristics are steady, not lifting

or floating.

Typically, the top 1/8" of the thermopile should be

engulfed in the pilot flame. (Page 13, Fig. 24)

Brass Cleaning

Clean the brass trim with a soft clean cloth, slightly

dampened with lemon oil and buff with a soft dry cloth.

Do not use brass polish or household cleaners as these

products will damage the trim. Lemon oil can be

obtained at supermarkets or hardware stores.
