MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Always turn off the valve before cleaning. For
relighting, refer to lighting instructions. Keep
the burner and control compartment clean by
brushing and vacuuming at least once a year.
When cleaning the logs, use a soft clean paint
brush as the logs are fragile and easily damaged.
2. Clean glass (never when unit is hot), appliance,
louvers, and door with a damp cloth. Never
use an abrasive cleaner. The gold louvers (and
optional gold door) may be scratched if abrasives
are used to clean them.
The heater is finished in a heat resistant paint
and should only be refinished with heat resistant
paint (not with wall paint). Regency
StoveBright Paint - Metallic Black #6309.
3. Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check the flame
of the burner periodically, making sure the flames
are steady; not lifting or floating. If there is a
problem, call a qualified service person.
4. Caution: Label all wires prior to disconnection
when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation.
5. The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually, by
a qualified field service person, to ensure that
the flow of combustion and ventilation air is not
obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray and
cleaned. Replace the embers but do not block
the pilot.
6. Keep the area near the appliance clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline, and other
flammable vapours and liquids.

GENERAL VENT
MAINTENANCE
This
Conduct an inspection of the venting system semi-
annually. Recommended areas to inspect as follows:
1. Check the Venting System for corrosion in areas
that are exposed to the elements. These will
appear as rust spots or streaks, and in extreme
cases, holes. These components should be
replaced immediately.
2. Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlight down
the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or other foreign
material.
3. Check for evidences of excessive condensation,
such as water droplets forming in the inner
liner, and subsequently dripping out the joints,
dealer for further
®
Continuous condensation can cause corrosion
of caps, pipe, and fittings. It may be caused
by having excessive lateral runs, too many
elbows, and exterior portions of the system
being exposed to cold weather.
4. Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sections or
fittings have been disturbed, and consequently
loosened. Also check mechanical supports such
as Wall Straps, or plumbers' tape for rigidity.
