Blue Flame LLS-1626NG, LLS-4068NG, LLS-2440NG, LLS-3051 NG, LLS-3659NG Owner's Instruction Manual

INSTALLATION

Install & use this device with care. Follow all local codes or, in the absence of
local codes, to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223. 1INFPA 54.

GAS LINE INSTALLATION

• Gas controls shall not be installed inside the fireplace.

• Gas controls must be properly located and shielded to prevent overheating
due to exposure to the wood fire.

• Piping which exits the fireplace will conduct heat. Adequate clearances must
be maintained from piping to combustible construction to avoid a fire hazard.
It is required that a minimum 1/2” clearance to combustibles be maintained
within 6” of where the gas line passes through any side of the fireplace. Pipe
sealant must be used on all joints.

LOG LIGHTER INSTALLATION

Log lighter should be installed on the front of the grate in such a manner to
minimize flame impingement, the amount of heat exposure and that logs placed
on the grate will not rest directly on the log lighter tube. Also, the floor clearance
should be sufficient to minimize the chance of the blockage of the burner ports by
ash accumulation.

Steps to install your log lighter

:

1. The fireplace should be free of all debris.

2. A listed Blue Flame gas valve must be installed up steam of the log lighter.

3. Run gas pipe to the log lighter. Lighter must be secured in a rigid manner.

Example: use 112” rigid pipe for gas inlet and to the log lighter (inlet 1/2”
NPT). Use pipe fittings to support the opposite plugged end of the log lighter
(1 /2” male NPT) in contact with the floor or side of the fireplace. Do not
use copper or flexible connectors inside the firebox. Locate log lighter as
indicated above and maintain proper clearances.

4. The log lighter should be located such that the burner ports are facing

inwards at 30-45 degrees, with the air shutter facing out towards the front.
Adjust the air shutter to give sharp blue flames with yellow tips.

5. The log lighter and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from

the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at
test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). The log lighter must be isolated
from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than Y, psi (3 .5 kPa).

WARNING

Do not restrict air flow into Fireplace using the log lighter.

Make sure the chimney flue is open before attempting to operate this

device.

Make sure that glass doors are open while using the log lighter and
spark screen is closed.

Failure to observe these warnings may result in possible injury.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. MAKE SURE CHIMNEY FLUE IS OPEN BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPERATE THIS

DEVICE.

2. Fireplace should be clean of all debris, as this could contain hot coals which

could cause ignition if not removed or disposed properly. Ashes should be
placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container
should not be placed on a combustible floor, and kept away from other
combustible materials until the ashes have cooled or have been removed
from the container. Before disposing of ashes, ensure that all cinders have
cooled thoroughly.

3. Make sure the log lighter gas valve is in the OFF position.

4. Stack logs on the fireplace grate allowing an air space between logs for

quick lighting. Wait approximately five minutes before lighting.

5. Make sure that shutter on mixing chamber is open to ensure that air and

gas is being mixed, flame should be blue.

6. If the fireplace is equipped with glass doors, the doors shall be opened for

at least 5 minutes before attempting to light the device. In case of burner
outage, the gas supply shall be turned off and the doors left open for at
least 5 minutes before attempting to relight the device.

7. Light the burner by using a long fireplace match or a lit paper under the

center of the lighter near the burner ports.

8. Turn the gas valve ON gradually until burner ignition occurs.

9. If burner does not light with five seconds, turn gas valve OFF and wait 5

minutes before trying to relight.

10. When log lighter is burning, close the fireplace screens. Do not close glass

doors unless the wood in fireplace has been certified for use with log lighter
with doors closed.

11. When the wood fire is lit, the log lighter valve should be turned off. Failing

to do so will cause wood to burn quicker than normal.

12. Remove gas valve key and place in a safe location out of reach of children.

LEAK CHECKING

Periodically check all connections for leaks, or immediately check if smell of gas
is detected. Do not smoke while leak checking. Extinguish all open flames. Make
a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. You will need a
spray bottle, brush or a pieces of rag to apply the solution to the fittings.

1. Light the burner by using a long fireplace match or a lit paper under the

center of the lighter near the burner ports.

2. Turn the gas valve ON gradually until burner ignition occurs.

3. Apply the soap solution around the connections. Soap bubbles will appear

where a leak is present.

4. If a leak is present, immediately turn off gas valve, tighten any leaking

connection, relight the burner and recheck.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Dust, lint, debris and spider webs can build up during off season. Keep burner
and air flow passageways clean. Inspect or have these areas inspected at the
beginning of the heating season by a qualified service person.

Before Cleaning

: Ensure the gas valve is off. Make sure the fireplace is cool.

Burner Cleaning

: Use a flashlight to inspect the log lighter inlet & burner
ports to ensure they are not blocked. If obstruction can be seen then use a
metal wire coat hanger that has been straightened out.

Air Passageways, Glass Doors & Screens

: Use a vacuum cleaner to
clean the combustion, circulating air passageways and screens and dampened
cloth to clean the glass doors.

Fireplace Build-up

: Remove ash build-up to avoid blockage of burner ports.
