We recommend you purge the gas line at this time (with the glass removed). This allows gas to be
detected once it enters the firebox, ensuring gas does not build up.

3

Turn on gas to the heater. Leak test all gas joints prior to starting the appliance. Start the pilot (see
page 21).

Warning: When lighting or re-lighting the pilot, the glass must be removed (see

page 21 for the full set of instructions on starting the pilot).

4

Replace the glass (see page 16). Start the main burner. Leak test all gas joints again.

5

Install the faceplate following the instructions included with the face (shut off the insert if necessary).

!

ACID WASH WARNING

: Before installing the faceplate, make sure any masonry that has been

treated with acid wash has been properly neutralized (this is used primarily with brick faces). Acid wash
(muriatic acid) is used to remove excess mortar. If not properly neutralized with an ammonia solution,
the gold or nickel face may develop a permanent tarnish when the acid evaporates over time. Contact
your dealer if uncertain your facing has been properly neutralized.

6

Check the pilot flame to make sure it looks like the illustration below. Adjust the pilot flame if
necessary.

The pilot flame must contact the thermocouple and

thermopile (see the illustration below). Adjust the pilot up or

down as necessary.
