Sounds
It is possible that you will hear some sounds from your gas appliance. This
is perfectly normal due to the fact that there various types of materials used
within your appliance. Listed below are some examples. These are all
normal operating sounds and should not be considered as defects in your
appliance.
Gas Control Valve:
As the gas control valves turn ON and OFF, a dull clicking sound may be
audible, this is normal operation of a valve. When the fire is switched off
after being run for a while, there may be popping and fluttering noises as
the residual gas in the burner burns away. These are normal and should be
no cause for concern.
Unit Body / Firebox:
Different types and thickness’ of steel will expand and contract at different
rates resulting in some “dull drumming” and “ticking” sounds being heard
throughout the cycling process.
Smells
The first few times the unit is operated, the unit may release an odour and
the flames may appear orange caused by the curing of the paint, the
burning off of the starch in the gas coals and the oils in the metal. This is a
temporary curing process which will disappear with use.
