aiR shutteR (VentuRi):
The air shutter adjustment lever is underneath the rebox (see Figure 5).
The air shutter allows the amount of air mixing with the incoming gas 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 minutes and then examine the ames for impingement or soot build up.
The ideal ame will be blue at the base and light orange above. 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

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 painted 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 coals 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 tube 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 coals as in the seconDary
InstallatIon - FIre Grate anD loG set InstallatIon section. If new/more coals are required, contact your
nearest ENVIRO dealer.
RePLacing the 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). Wear gloves when handling damaged glass door assembly
to prevent personal injury. 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.
Remove the door (see page 11). The replacement glass will come with a new gasket installed. Remove
any silicone remnants from the door. Apply high temperature silicone to the two vertical faces of the
door and install the new piece of glass with gasket (be sure to maintain edge clearances). Apply even
pressure to the glass to allow the silicone to adhere to the gasket material.
Page 10
Maintenance And Service
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.
gLass DooR RemoVaL:
The door needs to be removed for
sceduled cleaning and to install the
glass media and other options.
To remove the glass door use your
two index ngers to pull the spring
latches up over the two door tabs.
Once release pivot the door to out
and pull it out of the bottom door
retainers. The door must be angled
in order for it to pull out.
