Air Out
The flow of combustion and ventilation air
must not be obstructed.
The appliance should be inspected before
use and at least annually by a qualified
service person. More frequent cleaning
may be required due to excessive lint
from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It
is imperative that control compartments,
burners and circulating air passageways of
the appliance be kept clean.
"If the vent/air intake system is disassembled
for any reason, reinstall per the instructions
provided for the initial installation."
MAINTENANCE
Inspecting the venting
An inspection of both the inner and outer pipes
of the venting system should be made during the an-
nual service appointment. There must be no blockage
and be in good repair. The vent manufacturer's in-
structions may provide specific suggestions or details
on vent inspection. Any sections that are taken apart
for the inspection must be reassembled and sealed
as required.
Cleaning the Log Set and Firebox
During the annual inspection and maintenance
appointment, the service person should clean dust,
lint, and any light accumulation from the logs and
the firebox area. An extra-soft brush should be used
on the logs as they are extremely fragile; a vacuum
cleaner may be used on the firebox. If at any time
the logs cannot be removed or installed without forc-
Air In
ing, the cause must be found. The logs must never
be forced.
Air Flow
It is essential that the air flows freely into the
blower and out of the top grill. Do not place objects
in front of the grill.
Check blower annually for buildup caused by
dust and pet hair.
Cleaning the burners
To clean the burners, you must remove the glass
door, logs, and burner screen.
With these parts removed, inspect all the holes
to make sure they are unobstructed. Use a small drill
or wire to clean any obstructed holes. Remove any
rust or other buildup that may have accumulated on
the burner or screen.
Replace parts in reverse order.
The appliance area must be kept clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapors and liquids.
