of the fascia assembly until it is flush at the edges.

problem with the heater, such as blocked gas injectors, incorrectly
installed / inadequate flue system or the artificial logs/burn media
may have shifted from when the heater was first installed.
There are some warning signs that could indicate a problem. If any
of the signs below occur, please contact Rinnai.
