ABOUT YOUR NEW DECADENCE HE GAS FIRE
The Flavel Decadence High Efficiency coal effect gas fires incorporate a unique
and highly developed fuel bed which gives the realism of a loose coal layout
combined with realistic flames and glow. The use of durable ceramic material in
the construction of the fuelbed components ensures long and trouble free
operation. When first using the new fire a slight smell may be noticed. This is due
to starch used in the manufacture of the soft ceramic coals, it is non-toxic and will
soon disappear.
Please take the time to fully read these instructions as you will then be able to
obtain the most effective and safe operation of your fire.
