Finalizing the Installation

! Turn the gas control valve to "OFF" prior to conducting any service.
1 Open the door (see page 16)
2 Install the log set and coals (see page 17).
! We recommend you purge the gas line at this time (with the door open). This allows gas to be
detected once it enters the firebox, ensuring gas does not build up.
3 Close and secure the door (see page 16)
4 Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all gas joints prior to starting the appliance. Start the pilot. Start
the main burner. Leak test all gas joints again.
5 Check the pilot flame to make sure it looks like the illustration to the below. Adjust the pilot flame if
necessary.
To adjust the pilot flame, turn this screw (NOTE: if totally
unscrewed gas will come out of this port). Clockwise
lowers the flame while counter-clockwise raises it.
6 Let the heater burn for thirty minutes. Adjust the air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct
looking flame (see the illustration to on the following page).
• The air shutter adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes. It is
used to fine-tune the flame for differences in altitude and vent configuration.
! If the air shutter is in its fully open position, yet the flames remain sooty, shut off gas to the heater and
contact your dealer for a remedy.
ADJUSTING THE AIR SHUTTER
Pushing to the right gives the flame less air
(making it more orange). Pushing to the
left gives the flame more air, making it
more blue. For fine adjustments use a
screwdriver to tap the air shutter.
NOTE: If the air shutter is all the way
open, yet the flames remain sooty, shut
off gas to the fireplace and contact a
qualified gas service technician.
Correct
Flames should be blue at the
base, yellow-orange on the top.

(for qualified installers only)
The pilot flame must contact the thermocouple and
thermopile (see the illustration below). Adjust the pilot up or
down as necessary.
Standard
Screwdriver
NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to
monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.
Not Enough Air
If the flames are over 14" tall or sooty on
the ends, open the air shutter.
