SERVICING AND CLEANING

Each installation site for any unit presents its own unique combustion environment. Specifi c factors such as weather,
wind currents, yard debris, altitude, drafts, the size of the surrounding area, all have an infl uence on the proper operation
of the unit. A normally operating unit will demonstrate the following characteristics:

• A lively, realistic yellow fl ame

• Odor-free

If the fl ame is not clean (identifi able by excessive sooting on the decorative media ), refer to the information below. Some
soot on the media may occur and should not be a concern unless excessive.

• Cover your unit whenever it is not in use, and follow the guidelines below at least annually.

ANNUAL CLEAN / INSPECTION GUIDELINES

The unit and the installation must be inspected annually. Refer to these instructions for details. Performing these procedures
will ensure proper operation, appearance, and safety. WEAR GLOVES.

If maintenance is required, it must be done by a qualifi ed professional service technician.

• Always shut off the gas to the unit while performing service work.

• Allow the unit to cool before servicing.

• The entire burner system should be inspected regularly:
Excessive debris can build up on this unit from leaves, dirt, or other debris. It is critical that all control components,

burners, vent openings, and the surrounding area be kept clean and free of all obstructions.
Examine that all components are properly assembled / installed as instructed in this manual.
Ensure that all decorative media is properly placed as instructed in this manual.

• The burner assembly must be replaced prior to the unit being put into operation if it is evident that the burner is
damaged. Contact your local dealer for replacement parts.

recommended. Allow to dry and follow up with a concrete sealer in order to preserve the fi nish. A.F.D. recommends
Miracle Sealants Tile & Stone Cleaner and 511 Porous Plus Sealer products to maintain the concrete.

During use, clean up any spills immediately to prevent any possible staining or damage to the fi nish.
