Step 10. Installing Trim, Logs,
and Ember Material
Installing the Trim
Combustible materials may be brought up to the specified
clearances on the side and top front edges of the fireplace,
but MUST NEVER overlap onto the front face. The joints
between the finished wall and the fireplace top and sides
can only be sealed with a 300° F. (149° C) minimum sealant.
WARNING: WHEN FINISHING THE FIREPLACE,
!
NEVER OBSTRUCT OR MODIFY THE AIR INLET/
OUTLET GRILLES IN ANY MANNER.
Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits as
desired. Marble, brass, brick, tile, or other non-combustible
materials can be used to cover up the gap between the
sheet rock and the fireplace.
Do not obstruct or modify the air inlet/outlet grilles. When
overlapping on both sides, leave enough space so that the
bottom grille can be opened and the trim door removed.
Removing Grate Shipping Support
•
Remove the log pack and hood, if applicable.
•
Bend top retaining tab of grate shipping support into
vertical position (see Figure 37).
•
Lift grate slightly upward with one hand so that the grate
clears the support.
•
Slide shipping support to side, remove and discard.
•
Lower grate onto refractory.

Positioning the Logs
If the gas logs have been factory installed they should not
need to be positioned. If the logs have been packaged
separately, refer to the instructions that accompany the
logs. Save the log instructions with this manual.
If sooting occurs, the logs might need to be repositioned
slightly to avoid excessive flame impingement.
Placing the Ember Material
Ember material is shipped with this gas fireplace. The bag
labeled Golden Ember (GE-93) is flame colorant material.
The bag labeled Glowing Ember (050-721) is standard
glowing ember material. To place the ember material:
• Remove the top louver by lifting it up and away from the unit.
• Unlatch the latches at the top and bottom of the glass door.
• Remove the glass door from the unit (see Figure 37).
• Place dime size pieces of ember material about 1/2 inch
apart near port holes in burner top. Do NOT press embers
into burner ports. Cover the top of the burner with a single
layer of ember material. Then sprinkle GE-93 on top of
the burner. For best performance do NOT place embers
on the ports at the rear of the burner (see Figure 38).
• Save the remaining ember materials for use during fire-
place servicing. The bag of embers provided is sufficient
for 3 to 5 applications.
• Reinstall and latch the glass door and top louver on the unit.
CAUTION: THE GLASS DOOR MUST BE SECURELY
LATCHED BEFORE OPERATING THE UNIT.
