Ceramic Refractory Installation

The ceramic refractories are fragile and
should be handled with care. Due to the
size of the refractories, an assistant may
be helpful.

1. Using a wrench, remove the two (2) nuts holding
each fettle to the burner assembly. Remove the two
(2) burner tubes by removing the two (2) nuts that
secure each burner tube to the burner housing.
2. Identify the side refractory. The refractory with the
small cut out at the bottom must be installed on the
side where the plumbing for the pilot and manifold
are. The other side refractory has a larger cut out at
the bottom. This is designed to allow the opening for
the fresh air coming to the combustion chamber
unobstructed. (Fig. 38)
3. Start with either the right side refractory or left side
refractory. Hold the refractory at an angle. Slide and
seat the bottom edge toward the bottom of the
firebox. Tilt it carefully toward the side until the
piece is in place. Using the two (2) brackets and
four (4) screws provided with the refractory kit,
fasten each bracket to the top of the firebox on each
side. NOTE: Use existing holes in firebox.

4. Place the right hearth refractory on the opposite
side of the pilot (fresh air opening side) with the cut
out material closer to the burner housing side.
5. Install the front and back hearth refractories and
align with the right hearth refractory already in-
stalled.
6. Reinstall the burner tube and fettle.

Log, Lava Rock and Ember Placement

Unpack the logs from packaging and remove each log
from its wrapping material.
The logs are fragile and should be
handled with care. Keep the packaging
materials out of the reach of children and
dispose of the material in a safe manner.
1. Ensure the four (4) nuts that attach the fettle to the
burner are secure.
2. Set the andirons in place by hooking the tabs on the
back of the andirons over the webs of the fettle.
(Fig. 39) Repeat process for andirons on both sides
of burner.

housing and set andirons in place.
3. Place the volcanic rock over the lower refractory in
front of each burner tube and around the burner
assembly as desired. (Fig. 40) Do not obstruct fresh
air inlet with volcanic rock.
4. Place the ember material lightly, between each
burner tube and the burner housing, in front over
the burner tube and on top of burner tube.
NOTE: The ember material must be built up from
the burner tubes to the burner housing fronts in
order for the burner tubes to light properly.
