Cleaning and Maintenance / Main Burner
Warning: Turn off heater and let cool before cleaning.
After use, cleaning of the main burner may be required for the
proper flame. The main burner may be cleaned by applying air
pressure to the ports on the main burner.
Cleaning the Log Set and Firebox
CAUTION: Do not handle these logs with your bare hands.
Always wear gloves to prevent skin irritation.
During the annual inspection and maintenance appointment, the
service person should clean dust, lint, and any light accumulation
from the logs and the firebox area. An extra-soft brush should be
used on the logs and burner as they are extremely fragile; a vacuum
cleaner may be used on the firebox. If at any time the logs cannot
be removed or installed without forcing, the cause must be found.
The logs must never be forced.
CAUTION: The ceramic logs are durable when handled and
installed properly. However, they are delicate and may be damaged
easily if not handled with care. Handling damage to the ceramic
logs is not covered by warranty.

some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start
up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your
furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
