CALIBER B-VENT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
M. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Clean the Burner and Control Compartment
Keep the burner and control compartment clean by
brushing and vacuuming at least once a year. Always
turn off the wall switch (or remote control) and gas
valve before cleaning.
2. Check the Vent System
The appliance and venting system should be
inspected before use, and at least annually, by a
qualified field service person, to ensure that the flow
of combustion and ventilation air is not obstructed.
Refer to Section E, Step 5.
3. Check the Flame Patterns
a.
Check the flame of the burner periodically, making
sure the flames are steady, not lifting or floating.
See Figure 31. The flame color should be blue
with yellow tips. The flame sensor (intermittent
pilot) or thermopile and thermocouple (standing
pilot) tips should be covered with flame. See
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
Figures 29-30.
Note:
After extended periods of burning, film may
build up on the flame sensor (intermittent pilot
ignition). The flame sensor should be cleaned
annually with emery cloth to remove this build up.
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly,
the vent may cause the flames inside the
appliance to lift or "ghost" - a dangerous situation.
Inspect the flames after installation to ensure
proper performance. See Figure 31. If the vent
configuration is correct, yet the flames are lifting
or ghosting, shut off gas to the appliance and
contact the dealer.
Note:
The look of the flames and embers may differ
based on the type of fuel and venting assembly that is
required.

b.
To prevent the possibility of soot, we have
provided your appliance with an adjustable air
shutter. Your air shutter is provided in the closed
position for natural gas and in the open position
for propane. It takes 16 full turns (360 degrees)
to move the air shutter from fully OPEN to fully
CLOSED. In the event soot is accumulating in
your appliance, the air shutter should be opened
farther. This can be done by opening the control
access panel and locating the air shutter handle
in the bottom of the firebox. See Figure 32. When
the air shutter handle is turned all of the way
DOWN (counterclockwise), the air shutter is fully
closed. When the air shutter handle is turned all
the way UP (clockwise), the air shutter is fully
open.
