CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Turn off log set and let cool before servicing.
CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burner, and circulating air passageways of log set
clean. Inspect these areas of log set before each use. Have log set inspected yearly by a
qualied service person. Log set may need more frequent cleaning due to excessive lint
from carpeting, bedding material, pet hair, etc.
WARNING: Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean may result in sooting
and property damage.
BURNER ORIFICE HOLDER AND PILOT AIR INLET HOLE
The primary air inlet holes allow the proper amount of air to mix with the gas. This provides a clean
burning ame. Keep these holes clear of dust, dirt, lint and pet hair. Clean these air inlet holes prior to
each heating season. Blocked air holes will create soot. We recommend that you clean the unit every
three months during operation and have log set inspected yearly by a qualied
service person.
We also recommend that you keep the burner tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust and dirt.
To clean these parts we recommend using compressed air no greater than 30 PSI. Your local
computer store, hardware store or home center may carry compressed air in a can. If using
compressed air in a can, please follow the directions on the can. If you don’t follow directions on the
can, you could damage the pilot assembly.
Periodic examination and cleaning of the venting system and the solid fuel-burning replace, includ-
ing frequency of such examination and cleaning, must be done by a qualied agency.
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Figure 31 shows a correct burner ame pattern. Figure 32 shows an incorrect burner ame pattern.
The incorrect burner ame pattern shows sporadic, irregular ame tipping. The ame should not be
dark or have an orange/reddish tinge.
Note: When using the log set the rst time, the ame will be orange for approximately one hour until
the log cures.
If burner ame pattern is incorrect, as shown in Figure 32.
• turn log set off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 16).
• see Troubleshooting, page 19.
