MAINTENANCE
4) Make a periodic check of burner for proper
position and condition. Visually check the
fl ame of the burner periodically, making sure
the fl ames are steady; not lifting or fl oating.
If there is a problem, call a qualifi ed service
person.
5) The appliance and venting system must be
inspected before use, and at least annually,
by a qualifi ed fi eld service person, to ensure
that the fl ow of combustion and ventilation
air is not obstructed.
Note: Never operate the appliance without
the glass properly secured in
place.
6) Do not use this appliance if any part has been
under water. Immediately call a qualifi ed
service technician to inspect the appliance
and to replace any part of the control system
and any gas control which has been under
water.
7) Verify operation after servicing.
General Vent Maintenance
Conduct an inspection of the venting system
semi-annually. Recommended areas to inspect
as follows:
1) Check the Venting System for corrosion in
areas that are exposed to the elements.
These will appear as rust spots or
streaks, and in extreme cases, holes.
These components should be replaced
immediately.
2) Remove the Cap, and shine a fl ashlight
down the Vent. Remove any bird nests, or
other foreign material.
3) Check for evidences of excessive
condensation, such as water droplets forming
in the inner liner, and subsequently dripping
out the joints, Continuous condensation can
cause corrosion of caps, pipe, and fi 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 fi ttings have been disturbed,
and consequently loosened. Also check
mechanical supports such as Wall Straps,
or plumbers' tape for rigidity.
GOLD-PLATED
OR BRASS TRIM
The 24 carat gold plated or brass fi nish on the
trim requires little maintenance, and need only
be cleaned with a damp cloth. DO NOT use
abrasive materials or chemical cleaners, as they
may harm the fi nish and void the warranty.
Clean any fi ngerprints off before turning the
unit on. If the top louvers start to discolour,
check the door gasket seal and replace if
necessary.
LOG REPLACEMENT
The unit should never be used with broken logs.
Turn off the gas valve and allow the unit to cool
before opening door and carefully remove the
logs. (The pilot light generates enough heat to
burn someone.) If for any reason a log should
need replacement, you must use the proper
replacement log. The position of these logs
must be as shown in the diagrams under Log
Installation.
Note: Improper positioning of logs may create
carbon build-up and will severely alter
the unit's performance which is not
covered under warranty.
THERMOPILE /
THERMOCOUPLE
1) Open the bottom louvers.
2) Loosen the thermocouple or thermopile with
a 7/16" wrench.
3) Disconnect thermocouple by loosening
nut from the valve with a 9mm wrench.
Disconnect thermopile by loosening 2 screws
marked TP on the valve.
4) Drop the thermocouple or thermopile down
from the bracket and pull it out of the unit.
5) Reinstall the new ones in reverse order.
GLASS GASKET
If the glass gasket requires replacement use
a tadpole glass gasket for the Flush Front (Part
# 936-155).
DOOR GLASS
Your UltraGlow ® fi replace is supplied with high
temperature, 5 mm tempered glass that will

panels should be done by a licensed
or qualifi ed service person.

damaged or broken glass.
Flush Glass Replacement
Remove the fl ush door front (as per instructions
in the "Standard Flush Door" section). Remove
