SAFETY INFORMATION FOR USERS OF PROPANE GAS
Propane is a ammable gas which can cause res and explosions.
In its natural state, propane is odorless and colorless. You may not know all the following safety precautions which can protect both you and your family from an accident. Read them carefully now, then review them point by point with the members of your household. Someday when there may not be a minute to lose, everyone’s safety will depend on knowing exactly what to do. If, after reading the following information, you feel you still need more information, please contact your gas supplier.
PROPANE GAS WARNING ODOR
If a gas leak happens, you should be able to smell the gas because of the odorant put in the Propane Gas. That's your signal to go into immediate action!
Do not operate electric switches, light matches, use your phone.
Do not do anything that could ignite the gas.
Get everyone out of the building, vehicle, trailer, or area. Do
that IMMEDIATELY.
Close all gas tank or cylinder supply valves.
Propane Gas is heavier than air and may settle in low areas
such as basements. When you have reason to suspect a gas leak, keep out of basements and other low areas. Stay out until
reghters declare them to be safe.
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
Use your neighbor’s phone and call a trained Propane Gas service person and the re department. Even though you may
not continue to smell gas, do not turn on the gas again. Do not re-enter the building, vehicle, trailer, or area.
Finally, let the service man and reghters check for escaped
gas. Have them air out the area before you return. Properly trained Propane Gas service people should repair the leak, then check and relight the gas appliance for you.
NO ODOR DETECTED - ODOR FADE
Some people cannot smell well. Some people cannot smell
the odor of the chemical put into the gas. You must nd out if
you can smell the odorant in propane. Smoking can decrease your ability to smell. Being around an odor for a time can affect your sensitivity or ability to detect that odor. Sometimes other odors in the area mask the gas odor. People may not smell the gas odor or their minds are on something else. Thinking about smelling a gas odor can make it easier to smell.
The odorant in Propane Gas is colorless, and it can fade under some circumstances. For example, if there is an underground
leak, the movement of the gas through soil can lter the odorant. Odorants in Propane Gas also are subject to oxidation. This fading
can occur if there is rust inside the storage tank or in iron gas pipes.
The odorant in escaped gas can adsorb or absorb onto or into walls, masonry and other materials and fabrics in a room. That will take some of the odorant out of the gas, reducing its odor intensity.
Propane Gas may stratify in a closed area, and the odor intensity could vary at different levels. Since it is heavier than air, there may be more odor at lower levels. Always be sensitive to the slightest gas odor. If you detect any odor, treat it as a serious leak. Immediately go into action as instructed earlier.
SOME POINTS TO REMEMBER
Learn to recognize the odor of Propane Gas. Your local Propane
Gas Dealer can give you a “Scratch and Sniff” pamphlet. Use
it to nd out what the propane odor smells like. If you suspect
that your Propane Gas has a weak or abnormal odor, call your Propane Gas Dealer.
If you are not qualied, do not light pilot lights, perform service, or make adjustments to appliances on the Propane Gas system. If you are qualied, consciously think about the odor of Propane
Gas prior to and while lighting pilot lights or performing service
or making adjustments.
Sometimes a basement or a closed-up house has a musty
smell that can cover up the Propane Gas odor. Do not try to
light pilot lights, perform service, or make adjustments in an
area where the conditions are such that you may not detect the odor if there has been a leak of Propane Gas.
Odor fade, due to oxidation by rust or adsorption on walls of
new cylinders and tanks, is possible. Therefore, people should be particularly alert and careful when new tanks or cylinders are placed in service. Odor fade can occur in new tanks, or
reinstalled old tanks, if they are lled and allowed to set too long before relling. Cylinders and tanks which have been out
of service for a time may develop internal rust which will cause odor fade. If such conditions are suspected to exist, a periodic sniff test of the gas is advisable. If you have any question
about the gas odor, call your Propane Gas Dealer. A peri­odic sniff test of the Propane Gas is a good safety measure under any condition.
If, at any time, you do not smell the Propane Gas odorant and
you think you should, assume you have a leak. Then take the same immediate action recommended above for the occasion when you do detect the odorized Propane Gas.
If you experience a complete “gas out,” (the container is under
no vapor pressure), turn the tank valve off immediately. If the container valve is left on, the container may draw in some air
through openings such as pilot light orices. If this occurs, some
new internal rusting could occur. If the valve is left open, then treat the container as a new tank. Always be sure your con­tainer is under vapor pressure by turning it off at the container
before it goes completely empty or having it relled before it is
completely empty.

Installing a New Main Gas Shut-Off
Each appliance should have its own manual gas shut-off.
A manual main gas shut-off should be located in the vicinity of the unit. Where none exists, or where its size or location is not adequate, contact your local authorized installer for instal­lation or relocation.
Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping shall be resistant to the action of liqueed petroleum gases. The gas
lines must be checked for leaks by the installer. This should be done with a soap solution watching for bubbles on all exposed connections, and if unexposed, a pressure test should be made.
Never use an exposed ame to check for leaks. Appliance
must be disconnected from piping at inlet of control valve and pipe capped or plugged for pressure test. Never pressure test with appliance connected; control valve will sustain damage!
NOTE: The millivolt gas controls are equipped with a captured
screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to provide a 1/8" test point up stream of the control.
On direct ignition valves, hex plugs may be replaced with
hose ttings for pressure checks, then reinstalled before operating replace.

Install the Fresh Air Kit - BVA1
A fresh air kit is available as an optional feature with this appliance. The fresh air kit helps to decrease the amount of room air taken by utilizing outside air for combustion. It is strongly recommended that it be installed. Installation of the fresh air kit should be performed at the framing stage of the
replace installation.
The fresh air kit installs on the left side of the replace.
To install the BVA1 fresh air kit, refer to the installation instructions provided with the kit.
NOTE: The outside air kit can terminate at any level with the exception that it must terminate at least 1 ft below the vent termination cap. The fresh air kit inlet hood should be positioned at least 2 ft above the ground level, in a manner that will not allow snow, leaves, etc. to block the inlet.
WARNING
Exhaust products of gasoline engines are hazardous. The outside air must not be taken from a garage
space, attic spaces, basements, or above the roong
where other heating appliance, fans, or chimneys exhaust or utilize the air.
Framing (Figure 11)
Fireplace framing can be built before or after the replace is
set in place. Framing should be positioned to accommodate
wall covering and replace facing material. The replace
framing should be constructed of 2 x 4 lumber or heavier. The
framing headers may rest on the replace standoffs. Refer
to Figure 11 for minimum framing dimensions.

VENTING
Vent Runs
In planning the installation for the replace, it is necessary to
install certain components before the appliance is completely positioned and installed. These include the vent system, gas piping for the appliance, Fresh Air Kit, and the electrical wiring. (The fan option is available for louvered models only. Electric
ignition models will require electrical service to junction box).
The appliance can be mounted on any of the following surfaces:
1. A at, hard combustible (burnable) surface.
2. A raised wooden platform.
3. Four (4) corner supports. (Example: Four (4) concrete
masonry blocks.) These supports must be positioned so they contact all four (4) perimeter edges on the bottom of the unit.
Locate and mark the center point of the vent pipe using a nail on the underside of the roof. Drive the nail through the center point. Mark the outline of the roof hole around this center point.
NOTE: Size of the roof hole dimensions depend on the pitch
of the roof. There must be a 1 inch clearance (25mm) to the vertical pipe sections. This clearance is to all combustible material.
Cover the opening of the vent pipe and cut and frame the roof hole. Use framing lumber the same size as the roof rafters
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
and install the frame securely. Flashing anchored to frame must withstand high winds. The storm collar is placed over
this joint to make a water-tight seal. Non-hardening sealant should be used to completely seal this ashing installation.
Determining Minimum Vent Height Above the Roof.
WARNING: Major U.S. building codes specify minimum chimney and/or vent height above the roof top. These minimum heights are necessary in the interest of safety.
These specications are summarized in Figures 14 and 15.

Note that for steep roof pitches, the vent height must be
increased. In high wind conditions, nearby trees, adjoining
roof lines, steep pitched roofs, and other similar factors can result in poor draft, or down-drafting. In these cases, increasing the vent height may solve this problem.
General Maintenance
Conduct an inspection of the venting system semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect are as follows:
1. Check areas of the venting system which are exposed to the elements for corrosion. These will appear as rust spots or streaks and, in extreme cases, holes. These components should immediately be replaced.
2. Remove the cap and shine a ashlight down the vent.
Remove any bird nests or other foreign material.
3. Check for evidence of excessive condensate, such as water droplets forming in the inner liner and subsequently
dripping out at joints. Condensate can cause corrosion of caps, pipe and ttings. It may be caused by having
excessive lateral runs, too many elbows and exterior portions of the system being exposed to cold weather.
4. Inspect joints to verify that no pipe sections or ttings have
been disturbed and, consequently, loosened. Also, check mechanical supports, such as wall straps or plumbers’ tape for rigidity.
A removable panel or other means must be provided in the
enclosure for visual inspection of the ue connection.
NOTE: This also pertains to vertical vent systems installed on the outside of the building.
Installing the Vent System in a Chase
A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the gas appliance and/or it’s vent system. Vertical vent runs on the outside of a building may be, but are not required to be installed inside a chase.
CAUTION: Treatment of restop spacers and construction
of the chase may vary with the type of building. These
instructions are not substitutes for the requirements
of local building codes. Therefore, your local building
codes must be checked to determine the requirements
for these steps.
NOTE: When installing this vent system in a chase, it is always
good building practice to insulate the chase as you would the outside walls of your home. This is especially important for cold climate installations. Upon completion of building your chase framing, install the vent system by following the instructions in this manual. Remember to build the chase large enough so that minimum clearance of combustible materials (including insulation) to the vent system are maintained.
WARNING
This appliance must not be connected to a chimney
ue servicing a separate solid fuel or gas fuel burning
appliance.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
750 Millivolt System
The standing pilot (750 millivolt system) is a continuous burning pilot. The pilot remains ON even when the main burner is OFF.
When you ignite the pilot, the thermopile produces millivolts (electrical current) which energizes the magnet in the gas valve. After 30 seconds to 1 minute time period you can release the gas control knob and the pilot will stay ON.
Allow your pilot ame to operate an additional one (1) to two
(2) minutes before you turn the gas control knob from the PILOT position to the ON position. This time period allows
the millivolts (electrical current) to build-up to a sufcient level
allowing the gas control to operate properly.
1. Follow the SAFETY and LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS for standing pilot controls found in this manual and on labels found in control compartment behind the door assembly.
CAUTION: During the initial purging and subsequent
lightings, never allow the gas valve control knob to remain depressed in the “pilot” position without pushing the piezo ignitor button at least once every second.
2. During the operating season, leave the control valve knob
in the “ON” position. This will allow the pilot ame to remain lit. Turn the burner ame on or off with the replace wall
switch or remote controls.
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
3. When the operating season is over, turn the wall switch or remote to “OFF” and the control valve to “OFF”. The system, including the pilot light, will be shut down.
The OWNER should carefully read and follow these operating instructions at all times. Lower the door assembly to view the
gas controls for the replace.
Initial Lighting
Upon completing the gas line or turning the gas valve on after it has been in the “OFF” position, a small amount of
air will be in the lines. When rst lighting the replace, it will
take a few minutes for the lines to purge themselves of this
air. Once the purging is complete, the replace will light and
operate satisfactorily.
Subsequent lightings of the appliance will not require such purging if the gas valve is not turned to “OFF.”

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT'D)
STANDING PILOT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The replace is equipped with a 15 foot length of wire that can be used to connect the valve to a wall switch (installer provided) or remote control receiver.
See instructions packed with each of the following optional switches or controls for proper installation, operation, and maintenance.
Wall Switch, FWS-1 (optional)
On millivolt valve models, a 15' wall switch wire is included. Connect the two leads to a wall switch (installer supplied).
See Figure 23.
FRBC Battery Operated Remote Control
To connect the FRBC remote to the millivolt gas valve on your "B-Vent" Fireplace, disconnect one wire terminal lead (wall switch wire) from gas valve, seperate/split wall switch wire lead approximately 18 inches. Cut the removed lead 12 inches long and strip both cut ends. After stripping and baring the wire ends, connect the two stripped ends to the remote receiver. Reconnect the 1/4" insulated wire terminal (short 18" wire) to the gas valve wire terminal. See Figure 23.
Millivolt Control
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
The valve regulator controls the burner pressure which should be checked at the pressure test point. Turn captured screw counter clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then place tubing to pressure gauge over test point (Use test point “A” closest to control knob). After taking pressure reading, be sure and
turn captured screw clockwise rmly to re-seal. Do not over
torque. Check for gas leaks.
Millivolt thermopile is self generating. Gas valve does not require 24 volts or 110 volts.
Check System Operation
Millivolt system and all individual components may be checked with a millivolt meter 0-1000 MV range.
It is important to use wire of a gauge proper for the length of the wire:

STANDING PILOT TROUBLESHOOTING
With proper installation and maintenance, your new Gas Fireplace will provide years of trouble-free service. If you
do experience a problem, refer to the Trouble Shooting Guide below. This guide will assist a qualied service person
in the diagnosis of problems and the corrective action to be taken.
1. Spark ignitor will not light pilot after repeated triggering of piezo ignitor button.
a. Defective ignitor (no spark electrode) —Check for spark at electrode and pilot; if no spark and
electrode wire is properly connected, replace ignitor.
b. No gas or low gas pressure.
—Check remote shut off valves from replace. Usually
there is a valve near the main. There can be more than
one (1) valve between the replace and main.
—Low pressure can be caused by a variety of situations
such as a bent line, too narrow diameter of pipe, or low line pressure. Consult with plumber or gas supplier.
c. No propane in tank.
—Check propane tank. Rell tank.
2. Pilot will not stay lit after carefully following lighting instructions.
a. Defective thermopile.
—Check that pilot ame impinges on thermopile. Clean
and/or adjust pilot for maximum ame impingement.
—Ensure the thermopile connections at the gas valve
are fully tight.
3. Pilot burning, no gas to burner, valve knob “ON.”
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
a. Wall switch, remote control or wires defective.
—Check wires for proper connections. Place jumper
wires across terminal at switch. If burner comes on,
replace defective switch. If OK, place jumper wires
across switch wires at gas valve-if burner comes on, wires are faulty or connections are bad.
b. Thermopile may not be generating sufcient millivolts. —If the pilot ame is not close enough physically to
the thermopile, adjust the pilot ame.
—Be sure the wire connections from the thermopile at
the gas valve terminals are tight and the thermopile is fully inserted into the pilot bracket.
—Check the thermopile with a millivolt meter. Take
the reading at TH-TP & TP terminals of the gas valve. The meter should read 350 millivolts minimum, while holding the valve knob depressed in the PILOT position, with the pilot lit, and the switch in the OFF position. Replace the faulty thermopile if the reading is below
the specied minimum.
—With the pilot in the ON position, disconnect the

colored tip. Minor adjustment of the air shutter may be necessary to "tune in" the proper ame color.
The burner ame and pilot ame must be checked for proper ame characteristics, as outlined in this manual.
VERIFYING INPUT RATE OF CONVERTED FIREPLACE
The input of the replace must be checked as follows:
1. Turn off all other gas appliances. Clock the gas meter and determine the number of seconds required to consume one cubic foot of gas.
2. 3600 ÷ time (in seconds) = cu. ft. per hour.
3. Then cu. ft. per hour x heating value of gas = input rate
(BTU/Hr). On installation without gas meters, check manifold
for proper pressure.
NOTE: The rate noted on the data plate is measured after 45 minutes
of continuous operation and adjusted for test conditions such as
temperature, and barometric pressure. The above procedure is a check for correct conversion only.
PLACEMENT OF GAS CONVERSION LABEL
Conversion label 2139 is to be filled out completely and placed with
the data plate attached near the valve.
If the appliance has not been installed, or a warranty card has not been returned to Empire Comfort Systems, Inc., check off type of gas converted to on card (for reference once the unit is installed). Also, indicate conversion by adding "Conv." behind gas.

IPI ELECTRONIC SYSTEM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
5.25 VDC ELECTRONIC CONTROL VALVE
The electronic control valve system includes the ability to switch the pilot from a standing pilot mode to an intermittent pilot mode.
IPI Mode - In the Intermittent Pilot mode, when the unit is turned ON, it will cause spark to the pilot, light the pilot, then allow the burner to light. When the unit is turned to OFF, both the burner and pilot will be OFF.
CPI Mode - In the Continuous Pilot mode, the pilot remains ON continuously even when the burner is turned OFF.
NOTICE: A small toggle switch is located on the front of the module tray that is used to switch from IPI (left position) to the CPI (right position). See Figure 24.
When the unit is turned to ON, the electrical current will energize a spark to the pilot igniter. Once the pilot sensor heats up (after a
few seconds), the valve will be energized, allowing gas to ow to
the burner.
AC/DC Adapter
An AC/DC adapter is located in the Instruction Packet. To install, connect the adapter to the mating female connector located near the gas valve. Run the adapter plug out one of the side openings of the insert in a similar manner as the blower power cord, then plug the adapter into a 120V receptacle.
1. Follow the SAFETY and LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS for Intermittent Pilot controls found in this manual, and on labels found in the control compartment located in the lower cavity of the appliance.
2. During the operating season (or in power outage periods), it is recommended that the pilot remain in the CPI (standing pilot mode) to reduce cold start issues, and/or conserve battery backup power during a power outage.
3. The gas valve has inlet and outlet pressure taps as shown in Figure 24. Refer to pages 8 and 9 for gas pressure requirements.
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROLS
Optional remote controls are available for use with this appliance. Place the remote receiver either in a wall outlet box with
extended wiring, on the replace hearth, behind the left side
surround panel, or in the control compartment area as far forward in the insert as possible. The placement options for the remote receiver are given to allow
exibility however, battery life will be extended if the receiver is
placed in cooler areas.
To connect the remote receiver to the appliance, rst disconnect
the ON/OFF switch wires from the white and green wire connectors and connect the wires from the remote receiver to the green and white wire connectors. See Page 24. Follow the instructions included with the remote control for programming and other operational information.

9a. Remove the 1/4" long screw from the air shutter at the left end
of the tube.
10a. Pull up on the back of the burner and rotate forward to gain
access to the main orice. Remove the orice and replace with the propane orice designated in the orice reference chart. Secure the new orice.
11a. Pivot the burner tube back down in its original position mating
with the air shutter, and reinstall the 1/4" long screw. Set the air shutter opening in accordance with the dimension shown
in the reference chart for the appropriate model replace.
BURNER ORIFICE CONVERSION – Slope style burners
8b. On model BVP42FP7 series fireplaces, you will have a
rectangular slope style burner. To gain access to the main
orice, disconnect the gas supply tubing at the air shutter.
9b. Remove the orice holder from the air shutter, then remove the
NG orice.
10b. Replace the removed NG orice with the new propane orice
designated in the orice reference chart for your replace model. Secure the new orice and replace the orice/orice
holder back into the air shutter and secure.
11b. Loosen the air shutter screw and reset the air shutter opening
in accordance with the dimension shown in the reference chart
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
for the appropriate model replace.
PILOT ORIFICE CONVERSION
12. Locate the pilot assembly.
13. Pull upward on the round pilot ame hood to remove.
14. Using a 5/32" Hex Allen wrench, remove the pilot orice, then replace with the new pilot orice marked #35.
IMPORTANT: Failure to install the correct orice will result in unit over-ring that could overheat the appliance and result in a re.
15. Refer to log placement found in your replace installation
manual to place logs onto the burner assembly.
16. Loosen screw and attach a manometer or pressure gauge to the outlet pressure tap of the control valve.
17. Turn on the gas supply. Turn on the electrical supply to the appliance. Check for gas leaks using a soap and water solution or leak detection solution. Bubbles indicate a leak that MUST
be corrected. Do not use an open ame to test for gas leaks.
18. Check the air shutter opening. See chart and illustration below.
19. Relight the main burners and verify proper burner ignition and operation.
20. With the main burner burning, read the pressure on the manometer or pressure gauge. The pressure on the gauge should read between 9.8" and 10.2"w.c.
21. Turn off the gas supply. Turn off the electrical supply to the appliance.
22. Remove the manometer or pressure gage. Tighten the screw in the pressure tap.
23. Turn on the gas supply. Turn on the electrical supply to the appliance.
24. Immediately test all gas line connections and the control valve for gas leaks using a soap and water solution or gas detection for solution. Bubbles indicate a leak that MUST be corrected.
Do not use an open ame to check for gas leaks.
25. Using a ball point pen, ll out the conversion label that is
supplied with the conversion kit. Place the conversion label
adjacent to the rating plate.
26. Test operation of replace once again. Allow the replace to operate for at least 10 minutes and check ame coloration.
Flame on rear of burner should be yellow without any orange-
colored tip. Minor adjustment of the air shutter may be necessary to "tune in" the proper ame color.
The burner ame and pilot ame must be checked for proper ame characteristics, as outlined in this manual.
VERIFYING INPUT RATE OF CONVERTED FIREPLACE
The input of the replace must be checked as follows:
1. Turn off all other gas appliances. Clock the gas meter and determine the number of seconds required to consume one cubic foot of gas.
2. 3600 ÷ time (in seconds) = cu. ft. per hour.
3. Then cu. ft. per hour x heating value of gas = input rate
(BTU/Hr). On installation without gas meters, check manifold
for proper pressure.
Note: The rate noted on the data plate is measured after 45 minutes
of continuous operation and adjusted for test conditions such as
temperature, and barometric pressure. The above procedure is a check for correct conversion only.
PLACEMENT OF GAS CONVERSION LABEL
Conversion label 2139 is to be filled out completely and placed with
the data plate attached near the valve.
If the appliance has not been installed, or a warranty card has not been returned to Empire Comfort Systems, Inc., check off type of gas converted to on card (for reference once the unit is installed). Also, indicate conversion by adding "Conv." behind gas.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
PLEASE NOTE It is normal for appliances fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noise during the start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your gas replace to give off some odor the rst time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any
undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated - open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your replace for at least six (6) hours the rst time you use it. If optional fan kit has been
installed, place fan in the “OFF” position during this time.
IMPORTANT: Turn off gas before servicing appliance. It is
recommended that a qualied service person perform these check-ups at the beginning of each heating season.
• Clean Burner and Control Compartment
Keep the control compartment, logs, and burner areas surrounding
the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing at least twice a year.
CLEANING PROCEDURE
1. Turn off pilot light at gas valve.
2. Vacuum burner compartment.
3. Ignite pilot (if applicable). (See Lighting Instructions)
4. Operate the pilot burner (if applicable). If it appears abnormal call a service person.
f i r e - p a r t s . c o m
• Check Vent System
The appliance and venting system should be inspected before
initial use and at least annually by a qualied service person.
Inspect the external vent cap on a regular basis to make sure
that no debris is interfering with the air ow.
GLASS CLEANING (OPTIONAL KITS)
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During start-up condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass and causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass
surface. Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight lm on the
glass. It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or three times with a non-abrasive household cleaner and warm water
(we recommend gas replace glass cleaner). After that the glass
should be cleaned two or three times during each heating season depending on the circumstances present.
GENERAL GLASS INFORMATION
Only glass approved for use by the manufacturer may be used for replacement. The glass replacement should be done by a licensed
or qualied service person.
WARNING:
1. The use of substitute glass will void all product warranties.
2. Care must be taken to avoid breakage of glass.
3. Do not abuse the glass by striking or hitting the glass.
FOR THE HOMEOWNER Annual Inspection
Have the replace inspected annually before use.
More frequent inspection and cleaning may be required if the
replace is installed in an area exposed to pet hair or dust,
or to excessive lint from new carpeting or bedding materials.
During The Annual Checkup, The Technician Will:
Inspect the pilot (ame safety system) and burner(s) for
proper operation and replace any damaged parts.
Vacuum and clean any foreign debris in the rebox that is
not supposed to be there.
Inspect the log set (if applicable) and decorative media (if applicable) for debris or damage.
Freshen up the glowing embers if applicable.
Replace batteries in the remote transmitter and receiver (if
applicable).
Inspect the venting and vent termination cap for damage, corrosion, sooting, or obstruction and correct if present.

During The Annual Checkup, The Technician Will:
Inspect the pilot (ame safety system) and burner(s) for
proper operation and replace any damaged parts.
Test and measure the ame failure response time of the ame safety system. It must de-energize the safety shut-off
in no more than 30 seconds.
Vacuum and clean any foreign debris in the rebox that is
not supposed to be there.
Inspect and ensure that the lighting of the main burner
occurs within 4 seconds of the gas valve opening. Visual inspection should match the information illustrated in the manual. Inspect primary air openings for blockage.
Inspect the log set (if applicable) and decorative media
(if applicable) for debris or damage.
Freshen up the glowing embers if applicable.
