Replace the glass frame (and arch covers when using arched faces - see page 27).
5
Install the faceplate following the instructions included with the faceplate.
!
ACID WASH WARNING
: Before installing the faceplate, make sure any masonry that has been
treated with acid wash has been properly neutralized (this is used primarily with brick faces). Acid wash
(muriatic acid) is used to remove excess mortar. If not properly neutralized with an ammonia solution,
the gold face may develop a permanent tarnish when the acid evaporates over time. Contact your
dealer if uncertain your facing has been properly neutralized.

Check the pilot flame to make sure it looks like the illustration below. Adjust the pilot flame if
necessary.
Standard
Screwdriver
The pilot flame must contact the thermocouple and
thermopile (see the illustration below). Adjust the pilot up or
down as necessary.
To adjust the pilot flame, turn this screw (NOTE: if totally
unscrewed gas will come out of this port). Clockwise
lowers the flame while counter-clockwise raises it.
7
Let the heater burn for fifteen minutes. Adjust the air shutters, if necessary, to achieve the correct
looking flame (see the illustration below).
•
The air shutter adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes.
Gas Control Valve
NOTE: If the air shutter is all the way
open, yet the flames remain sooty, shut
off gas to the fireplace and contact a
qualified gas service technician.
Correct
Flames should be blue at the
base, yellow-orange on the top.
If the flames are over 14" tall or sooty on
the ends, open the air shutter.
Not Enough Air
If the flames are all blue and
short, close the air shutter.
Too Much Air
NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to
monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.
Front Air
Shutter Control
Pushing the control to the left gives the
flame less air (making it more orange).
Pushing to the right gives the flame more
air, making it more blue. For fine
adjustments use a screwdriver to tap the
air shutter.
