  • Page 37: Finalizing The Installation

    FINALIZING THE INSTALLATION FLAME APPEARANCE: Flame appearance is affected by several factors including altitude, venting configuration and fuel quality. Although the venturi settings have been factory set, adjustments may be necessary for optimal performance and visual aesthetics. When fireplace is first lit, the flames will be blue. Flames will gradually turn yellowish-orange during first 15 minutes of operation. If flames remain blue, or become dark orange with evidence of sooting (black tips), burner tube venturis may need adjustment.

    FINALIZING THE INSTALLATION RESTRICTOR USAGE: Turn fireplace on and allow to burn for 15 minutes. If flames indicate there is excessive draft (flickering, short flames), a restrictor may be necessary. If flames indicate insufficient draft (lifting or ghosting flames), a previously installed restrictor may need to be modified or removed. WARNING: TO AVOID PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY, ALLOW FIREPLACE AMPLE TIME TO COOL BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS AND / OR INSTALLATIONS.
