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.

• An inspection of 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.

Cleaning
When the fireplace is first activated, there may be some smoking 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 in

section. Handle the door carefully, and clean it with non-abrasive,

non-ammonia based glass cleaners. One of the most effective

products is Kel-Kem.

■ Use a vacuum cleaner or whisk broom to keep the control

compartment, burner, and firebox free from dust and lint.

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.

Procedure for Checking The Flue Gas Switch and

Thermal Switch

1). Remove the safety screen and outer glass, see appropriate

sections.
2). Disconnect the power vent harness from the plug in the control box.
3). Turn wall switch to 'ON' position.

that neither the LED indicator nor the ignitor illuminate. If LED

indicator or ignitor illuminates the flue gas switch is not functioning

properly. Disconnect the power to the unit, contact your technical

support representative.

two glass panels until heat sensor LED turns off.
