P52DF* Indoor Gas Fireplace

Maintenance

General

Have the fireplace and installation inspected yearly. The

inspection must include, but is not limited to, the following:
• A visual check of the entire vent system and

termination, where accessible.

• An inspection of the explosion relief flappers and the

door gaskets to ensure a proper seal.

• An inspection of the burner, vent run, and primary air

openings.

• An inspection of the gas valve, gas components, and

pilot flame. For your convenience a 1/8" manifold

pressure tap is supplied on the gas valve for a test

gauge connection.

• Inspection of all optional equipment; fans, thermostats,

remote control lights, etc.

■ For Natural Gas this appliance requires a minimum

inlet pressure of 5.5" W.C. and a manifold pressure of

3.5" W.C.

■ For Propane Gas this appliance requires a minimum

inlet pressure of 11" W.C. and a manifold pressure

of 10" W.C.

■ Always keep the fireplace area clear and free of

combustible materials, as well as gasoline and other

flammable vapors and liquids.

■ Do not use this appliance if any part has been under

water. Immediately call a qualified service technician

to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of

the control system and any gas control which has

been under water.

„

Inspection of glass doors and screen for damage

and proper installation.

Do not use ammonia based or abrasive cleaners on the glass, they will permanently

etch the surface. Use an approved gas fireplace glass cleaner such as Kel-Kem or

White off.

NOTICE

Cleaning

When the fireplace is first activated, there may be some

smoke and a visible film may be left on the glass. This is a

normal condition, and is the result of burning of protective

coatings on new metal.

■ Glass must be cleaned periodically to remove any

film (which is a normal by-product of combustion)

which may be visible. Film can easily be removed by

removing the door, as shown on Page 21. Handle the

door carefully, and clean it with non-abrasive glass

cleaners. One of the most effective products is Kel

Kem.

■ Silicone seals on inner door during initial firing will "off

gas", leaving a visual deposit of a white substance

on combustion chamber walls. This can easily be

removed from the chamber walls using normal

household products.

■ Use a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom to keep the

control compartment, burner, and firebox free from

dust and lint.
