Maintenance And Service

Warning: Failure to position the parts in accordance with this manual, or failure to use only parts

specifically approved with this appliance, may result in property damage or personal injury.
At least once a year, run through the following procedures to ensure the system is clean and working

properly. Check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean. Check the pilot to make sure it is not

blocked by anything. The pilot flame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.
The venting system must be periodically examined; it is recommended the examination is done by a

qualified agency.

. Check the gasket material on the back of the glass, making sure that

it is attached and intact.
During a cold start up, condensation will sometimes form on the glass. This is a normal condition with all

fireplaces. However, this condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial paint

curing of the appliance can leave a slight film behind the glass, a temporary problem. The glass will need

cleaning after the fireplace has cooled off from the first burn and about two weeks after first burn. Use

a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Abrasive cleaners will damage the glass and plated

surfaces. Depending on the amount of use, the glass should require cleaning no more than two or three

times a season. Do not clean the glass when it is hot.

Remove the logs carefully, as they are very fragile. Gently remove all the embers and rock wool and place

on a paper towel. Vacuum the bottom of the firebox thoroughly. Carefully clean any dust off the logs and

remove any lint from the burner and pilot. At this time, inspect the burner pan for cracking or severe

warping. If a problem is suspected, contact the dealer. Check the logs for deterioration or large amounts

of soot; a small amount on the bottom side of the logs is normal. Replace the logs and embers as in the

to prevent personal injury. When the glass door assembly is being transported, it must be wrapped in

newsprint and tape and/or a strong plastic bag. Do not operate with the glass front removed, cracked

or broken. Removal and replacement of the glass from the door must be done by a licensed or qualified

service person. The glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer. No substitute materials

Figure 8: Pilot Flame.

Periodically do a visual check of the pilot flames. One flame should

encompass the ignitor and thermocouple and the other should

burn over the burner ports (see Figure 8). Also check that the

burner is operating correctly, refer to Figure 77.
