INNOVATIVE HEARTH PRODUCTS • DIRECT-VENT GAS FIREPLACES (DRT6300/DRC6300) • CARE AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALL VOLCANIC STONE, GLOWING EMBERS, AND
LOGS (TRADITIONAL ONLY), OR
GLASS MEDIA (CONTEMPORARY ONLY)
NOTE: If installing the Contemporary Burner/Floor Kit, skip
this step and instead refer to the instructions provided with
the kit.
• 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 engi-
neered 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 in incomplete combus-
tion, 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.
1. Install the ceramic or porcelain panels, per the instructions provided
in kit (refer to document 506019-98).
2 Place volcanic stone around the burner, as shown in Figure 63.
3. Separate the glowing embers from the larger bag into pieces about
the size of a quarter, as shown in Figure 64. Mix the glowing embers
with the bag of platinum embers also provided with the fireplace.
Keep the pieces fluffed, not matted. Distribute these pieces over the
burner as shown in Figure 65. Do not use more glowing embers than
necessary. When properly positioned, the glowing embers will cover
approximately 75% of the burner for natural gas applications. For
propane gas, do not place any glowing embers on the main ports.
NOTE: Excessive use of glowing embers may result in sooting or poor
flame. This appliance is provided with enough glowing embers for
several applications. Do not use all provided, in one application. For
best glowing effect, replace the ember material annually. Replacement
glowing embers (P/N 88L53) and platinum embers (P/N H8312) are
available.

NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE.
4. Position the individual logs as shown in Figure 7 through Figure 11
on Page 11. Logs should be placed in the order shown. Place logs 2
and 3 against the pins on the grate, NOT over them.
Proper log and twig placement is critical to encourage outstanding
flame appearance and prevent sooting. When positioned properly as
shown, twigs will be positioned between flame peaks and will not
impinge any flames. Positioning is the same for all colors of log sets.
