INSTALL VOLCANIC STONE, GLOWING
EMBERS, AND LOGS
NOTE: Turn off all electricity to the appliance
before you install volcanic stone, embers
and logs.
WARNING
• DO NOT attempt to install
the logs until the appliance
installation has been completed,
the gas line connected, and
tested for leaks and the initial
burner operation has been
checked out.
• The size and position of the
log set was engineered to give
the appliance a safe, reliable,
and attractive flame pattern.
Any attempt to use a different
log set in the fireplace will void
the warranty and will result
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
in incomplete combustion,
sooting, and poor flame quality.
• Logs get very hot and will
remain hot up to one hour
after gas supply is turned off.
Handle only when logs are
cool. Turn off all electricity to
the appliance before you install
grate, volcanic stone, embers
and logs.
• This appliance is not designed
to burn wood. Any attempt to
do so could cause irreparable
damage to the appliance and
prove hazardous to your safety.
• If logs are not installed
according to the log
installation instructions, flame
impingement and improper
combustion could occur and
result in soot and/or excessive
production of carbon monoxide
(CO), a colorless, odorless,
toxic gas.

Figure 4: Glowing Ember Placement
Step 1. Remove the appliance front door (see
Removing Glass Enclosure panel on Page 10.
Step 2. Install volcanic stone—Sprinkle the
volcanic stone in a pleasing pattern. The
volcanic stone should be placed directly on
top of the firebox bottom, along the front and
to the back at the right and left sides of the
burner. Position any optional ceramic fiber
liners before placing the volcanic stone. Logs
should be positioned after the volcanic stone.
Note: This appliance is provided with enough
Glowing Embers for several applications,
do not feel compelled to use all that is in a
new bag. For best glowing effect, replace
the ember material annually. Replacement
Glowing Embers are available (Catalog
Number 88L53).
Step 3. Separate the Glowing Ember
(Rockwool) into pieces about the size of a
quarter (Figure 5). Keep the pieces fluffed
up, not matted. Distribute these pieces

Embers (rockwool)
Figure 5: Separating Embers
over the front surface of the burner, as
shown in Figure 4. Do not use more than is
necessary. When properly positioned, the
Glowing Embers will cover approximately
65% of the front burner and with no
appreciable gaps or openings. Ensure that
the main burner ports remain uncovered by
the ember material.
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.

Step 4. Placement of Logs—All top logs
that rest on lower logs, do so over notches,
indents or nubs. Proper log placement is
critical to prevent sooting. Logs should be
placed in the gaps between the flame peaks
and should be positioned so they do not
impinge the flames.
Step 5. Position the individual logs as shown
in Figure 6. Logs should be placed in the
order shown. All logs that have notches to
fit over the grate tines should be positioned
with these notches directly against the grate.
Handle logs carefully to prevent breakage.
Proper log placement is critical to encourage
outstanding flame appearance and prevent
sooting. When positioned properly as shown,
logs will be positioned between flame peaks
and will not impinge any flames.
