Figure 3. Pilot ame.
ventuRi aDjustment:
The venturi adjustment lever is centered above the control panel.
The venturi allows the amount of air coming into the replace to be adjusted in order to accommodate
different climates and venting arrangements. Start the pilot and then the burner. Make sure the pilot
ame is burning normally and none of the burner ports are plugged. Let the replace burn for roughly
fteen (15) minutes and then examine the ames.
Thermocouple
The ideal ame will be blue at the base and light orange
above (see Figure 49). The ames should be of medium
height. If the ames look like this, no venturi adjustment
is needed. If the ames are fairly short and mostly
blue, the replace is getting too much air. Therefore,
the air shutter should be closed (push in) slightly until
the correct ames are achieved. Flames that are very
orange, with tall dark stringy tips are not getting enough
air. Open (pull out) the venturi until the ames clean up.
If the venturi is opened, then closed all the way, and the
correct ames cannot be attained, turn off the gas and

Maintenance And Service
Routine maintenance:
At least once a year, run through the following procedures to ensure the system is clean and working
properly. Check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean. Check the pilot to make sure it is not
blocked by anything. The pilot ame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.
Warning: Clearances must be sufcient to allow access for maintenance and service
Warning: Failure to position the parts in accordance with this manual, or failure to use only parts
specically approved with this appliance may result in property damage or personal injury.
The venting system must be periodically examined; it is recommended the examination is done by a
qualied agency.
cLeaning the gLass:
When the replace has cooled, remove the face of the replace along with the glass. See Maintenance
and Service - glaSS door reMoval. Check the gasket material on the back of the glass, making sure that
it is attached and intact.
During a cold start up, condensation will sometimes form on the glass. This is a normal condition with all
replaces. However, this condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial paint
curing of the appliance can leave a slight lm behind the glass, a temporary problem. The glass will need
cleaning about two weeks after installation. Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth; abrasive
cleaners will damage the glass and plated surfaces. Depending on the amount of use, the glass
should require cleaning no more than two or three times a season. Do not clean the glass when it is
hot.
cLeaning the FiRebox:
Remove the logs carefully, as they are very fragile. Gently remove all the embers and rock wool and place
on a paper towel. Vacuum the bottom of the rebox thoroughly. Carefully clean any dust off the logs and
remove any lint from the burner and pilot. At this time, inspect the burner pan for cracking or severe
warping. If a problem is suspected, contact the dealer. Check the logs for deterioration or large amounts
of soot; a small amount on the bottom side of the logs is normal. Replace the logs and embers as in the
log Set and eMber inStallation section. If new/more embers and rock wool are required, contact your
nearest ENVIRO dealer.
RePLacing gLass:
The glass in the replace is a high temperature ceramic. If the glass is damaged in any way, a factory
replacement is required (see PartS liSt - coMPonentS). Wear gloves when handling the door assembly
with the damaged glass to prevent personal injury. When the glass door assembly is being transported,
it must be wrapped in newsprint and tape and/or a strong plastic bag. Do not operate with the glass
front removed, cracked or broken. Removal and replacement of the glass from the door must be done
by a licensed or qualied service person. The glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer.
No substitute materials are allowed.

Maintenance And Service
glass
cLeaning DecoRative suRFaces:
Painted and porcelain faces should be wiped with a damp cloth periodically. If a plated face has been
purchased, it should be unpacked/unwrapped carefully to avoid getting anything on the surface of the
nish, including cleaners, polish and nger prints. It is important to note that ngerprints and other
marks can leave a permanent stain on plated nishes. To avoid this, give the face a quick wipe with
denatured alcohol on a soft cloth BEFORE lighting the replace. Never clean the face when it is
hot. Do not use other cleaners as they may leave a residue, which can become permanently etched into
the surface.
If your ngers come into contact with the antique copper nish, the oils left as ngerprints on the
copper can cause discoloration, which will eventually turn green in that area. You can clean the patina
or discoloured areas of the antique copper nish with “OO” 3M green sanding pads. These can be
purchased from most hardware stores. On the areas with discoloration, use the sanding pads to sand
in the same direction as the brushed nish, then blend the nish by feathering in the surrounding area.
This renishing procedure has been approved by the manufacturer and will not harm the nish. Please
note: ANTIQUE COPPER IS THE ONLY FINISH THAT CAN BE SANDED, DO NOT SAND PEWTER, GOLD
OR NICKEL FINISHES.
gLass DooR RemovaL:
In order to install the log set, and for regular
cleaning, the glass door will need to be
removed. With the face off, there are two
(2) handles on either side of the glass. They
rotate 90° until parallel with the oor (see
Figure 8). The top of the glass will move
away from the rebox and then the glass
door can be lifted off the resting points.
To replace the glass door, simply reverse the
above procedure.
Warning: Do not touch or attempt to
remove the glass if the replace is not
completely cold.
WARNING: Never operate the replace
with the glass removed.
