PLEASE NOTE
It is normal for appliances fabricated of steel to give off some
expansion and/or contraction noised during the start up or cool
down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat
exchanger or car engine.
Glass Cleaning
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically. During start-up
condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass and
causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.
Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on the glass. It is
therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or three times with
a non-abrasive household cleaner and warm water (we recommend gas
fireplace glass cleaner). After that the glass should be cleaned two or
three times during each heating season depending on the circumstances
present.
