MAINTENANCE

INSTRUCTIONS
Any maintenance required accessing the
glass door of the unit must be performed by
an authorized service person.
1) Always unplug the power cord before
cleaning. For relighting, refer to lighting
instructions. Keep the burner and control
compartment clean by brushing and vac-
uuming at least once a year. When cleaning
the logs, use a soft clean brush as the logs
are fragile and easily damaged.
2) Clean glass (never when unit is hot), ap-
pliance, louvres, and door with a damp
cloth. Never use an abrasive cleaner. The
gold louvres (and optional gold door) may
be scratched if abrasives are used to
clean them.
The heater is finished in a heat resistant
paint and should only be refinished with
heat resistant paint (not with wall paint).
Masport uses StoveBright Paint - Metallic
Black #6309.
3) Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check the
flame of the burner periodically, making
sure the flames are steady; not lifting or
floating. If there is a problem, call an author-
ized service person.
4) The appliance and flueing system must be
inspected before use, and at least annual-
ly, by an authorized field service person,
to ensure that the flow of combustion and
ventilation air is not obstructed.
During the annual service call, the burners
should be removed from the burner tray
and cleaned. Replace the embers - do not
block the pilot or burner ports.
5) Keep the area near the appliance clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapours and liquids.

MAINTENANCE
General Flue Maintenance
Conduct an inspection of the flueing system
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
1) Check the Flueing System for corrosion in
YOUNG
areas that are exposed to the elements.
These will appear as rust spots or streaks,
and in extreme cases, holes. These com-
ponents should be replaced immediately.
2) Remove the Cap, and shine a flashlight
down the Flue. Remove any bird nests, or
other foreign material.
3) Check for evidences of excessive con-
densation, such as water droplets forming
in the inner liner, and subsequently dripping
out the joints, Continuous condensation
can cause corrosion of caps, pipe, and
fittings. It may be caused by having exces-
sive lateral runs, too many elbows, and
exterior portions of the system being ex-
posed to cold weather.
4) Inspect joints, to verify that no pipe sections
or fittings have been disturbed, and conse-
quently loosened. Also check mechanical
supports such as Wall Straps, or plumbers'
tape for rigidity.
GOLD-PLATED or
BRASS LOUVERS/TRIM
The 24 carat gold-plated or brass finish on the
louvers and trim requires little maintenance, and
need only be cleaned with a damp cloth. DO
NOT use abrasive materials or chemical clean-
ers, as they may harm the finish and void the
warranty.
Clean any fingerprints off be-
fore turning the unit on.

LOG REPLACEMENT

The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door and carefully remove the
logs. (The pilot light generates enough heat to
burn someone.) If for any reason a log should
need replacement, you must use the proper
replacement log. The position of these logs
must be as shown in the diagrams under Log
Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may
create carbon build-up and will
severely alter the unit's perform-
ance which is not covered under
warranty.
