Initial Burn, Fan, and Flame
The first time you the heater a paint odor will be
discernible. This odor is from the paint curing on
the outside of the heater. This is normal. The initial
flame will at first be blue. It will become more
yellow and "fire like." Adjust the flame height
using the Hi/Lo flame adjust (see Figure 21).
Normal Sounds
A whisper sound from the pilot, a clicking in the
gas control valve, and a whirring sound as the fan
turns on may be audible upon startup. These sounds
are all normal.
WARNING
Do not burn heater if glass is cracked or broken.
Replacement of glass should be done by a licensed or
qualified service person. See "Maintenance" for
replacing glass.
Failure to inspect and maintain your heater may lead to
improper burning inside the heater and could create a
dangerous situation.
MAINTENANCE
Make sure that there is adequate clearance for
accessibility to service and operate the heater.
Always verify proper operation after servicing.
Every year inspect the fire box, burner, and glass
gasket to make sure they are clean and functioning
properly.
Burner, Firebox, and Pilot Inspection
The firebox should be inspected for any soot or dust
build-up that might occur during operation. To
inspect these components, open the door by
unscrewing the handle until the door comes open.
Remove the logs gently and inspect the holes in the
burner plate to make sure that they are not clogged.
Inspect the metal for signs of deterioration. There
should be no soot in the firebox except where the
flame might brush against the logs. If soot is visible,
you contact your dealer or service technician for an
adjustment. Visually inspect the pilot for soot build-
up, proper flame height, and any obstruction (See
Figure 17 and Figure 18). This inspection should be
done periodically to ensure proper performance. See
Figure 20 for location of pilot.
Door Gasket
Make sure the door gasket is sealed and creates a
tight seal around the door.
Glass Replacement
Glass replacement can be done by lifting the door
off the stove and removing the face plate. The glass
and gasket must be replaced as complete assembly
furnished by Thelin Hearth Products. Do not
substitute materials or try to cut glass that is not
furnished by Thelin Hearth Products.
Do not abuse glass by slamming door or striking
foreign object against glass.
