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 flame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.
Warning: Clearances must be sufficient to allow access for maintenance and service
Warning: Failure to position the parts in accordance with this manual, or failure to use only parts
specifically approved with this appliance may result in property damage, personal injury, or void your
warranty.
The venting system must be periodically examined; it is recommended the examination is done by a
qualified agency.

:
When the fireplace is off and has cooled, remove the face of the fireplace along with the glass.
See M AINTENANCE A ND S ERVICE - G LASS D OOR R EMOVAL . 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 gas fireplaces. However, this condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial
paint curing of the appliance may leave a slight film 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. In some instances, a white
film may form on the glass, caused by gas impurities. The white film can be removed by using ceramic
polish. Do not clean the glass when it is hot.
C LEANING T HE F IREBOX :
Remove the logs carefully, as they are very fragile. Gently remove all the coal chunks and rock wool and
place on a paper towel. Vacuum the bottom of the firebox 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 your 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 L OG S ET AND E MBER I NSTALLATION section. If new/more rock wool is required, contact your nearest
ENVIRO dealer.

OMPONENTS
). Wear gloves when handling damaged glass door
assembly 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 your fireplace with the glass
front removed, cracked or broken. Removal and replacement of the glass from the door must be done
by a licensed or qualified service person. The glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer.
Substitute materials will void the warranty.
