Out of propane gas. - Fill the tank.
Spark gap is incorrect.
- Spark gap should be 0.150” (3.8mm) to 0.175” (4.5mm) from the
electrode tip and the pilot burner. To ensure proper electrode

- Replace the valve.
- Call the gas distributor.
Flames are consistently
too large or too small.
Carboning occurs.
Unit is over-fi red or underfi red. - Check pressure readings:
- Inlet pressure can be checked by turning screw (A) counter-
clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then placing pressure gauge
tubing over the test point. Gauge should read as described
on the chart below.
Check with main burner is operating on
‘HI’.
- Outlet pressure can be checked the same as above using
screw (B). Gauge should read as described on the chart
below. Check that main burner is operating on ‘HI’.
- AFTER TAKING PRESSURE READINGS, BE SURE TO TURN
SCREWS CLOCKWISE FIRMLY TO RESEAL. DO NOT OVER
TORQUE.
- Leak test with a soap and water solution.
Carbon is being deposited
on glass, logs or combustion
chamber surfaces.
Air shutter has become blocked. - Ensure air shutter opening is free of lint or other obstructions.
Flame is impinging on the logs
or combustion chamber.
- Check that the logs are correctly positioned.
- Open air shutter to increase the primary air.
- Check the input rate: check the manifold pressure and orifi ce
size as specifi ed by the rating plate values.
- Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing and
that the seal is tight.
- Check that both vent liners are free of holes and well sealed
at all joints.
- Check that minimum rise per foot (meter) has been adhered
to for any horizontal venting.

cleaner.
- DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN HOT.
- If deposits are not cleaned off regularly, the glass may
become permanently marked.
Exhaust fumes smelled in
room, headaches.
Appliance is spilling. - Ensure exhaust bracket gasket seal.
