HOW TO INSTALL THE REAL-FYRE
®
GAS LOG SET
GLOWING EMBER & GRATE PLACEMENT
Sprinkle the glowing embers (Item #8) lightly and evenly
over the entire surface of the granules, making sure
that the pilot is not covered. Center the grate over the
burners so that the stabilizer clips slide over the back
edges of the pans (see Fig. 5-2).
LOG PLACEMENT
For best performance and operation, log placement is
very important. The logs with a heat chamber are placed
with the heat chamber facing inward (Fig. 5-3). Logs
without heat chambers are placed on the grate with
the fl at side inward and the rounded front side against
the front of the grate (Fig. 5-4). The space between
the logs will be a nominal 3".
Top logs should be placed diagonally across the
bottom logs with space between the logs so the
fl ame is not choked off. (See p. 7-8 for suggested log
placements.)
The top logs can be moved to achieve the desired
fl ame patterns. The smaller logs are leaned against
the top logs.
DAMPER CLAMP
WHEN THE LOG SET IS OPERATING, THE DAMPER
MUST BE FULLY OPEN. The damper clamp with set
screw (Fig. 5-5) is provided as a means to prevent
full closure of the fi replace damper blade. This clamp
is easily attached to most damper blades with pliers
or a wrench, and must be permanently installed. The
clamp is designed to prevent accidental closure of the
damper when installed as illustrated (see Fig. 5-6
and Fig. 5-7). Should the damper clamp not fi t, have
a permanent stop installed.

Two types of granules are available for the Real-Fyre
®
burner pan. A select white sand is used with natural
gas, and vermiculite granules are used with propane
gas. Never use sand in a burner designated for use
with propane gas.
The select sand (Item #9) is composed of fi ne-quality
sterile sand that has been carefully sized for even
fl ame distribution. It is free from foreign elements that
could cause unpleasant odors and fl ame distortion. It
provides quiet operation, eliminating the “hiss” sound
heard with other materials.
The vermiculite granules are specially selected for use
with propane gas. They maximize fl ame distribution
and reduce carbon buildup.
GRANULE PLACEMENT
With the burner off and in place, fi ll the burner pans
completely with granules (sand or vermiculite). Slope
granules at the same angle as the burner pan. This is
important to ensure smooth, quiet distribution. Pour a
small amount of granules along the side edges and
back of the burner pans where they touch the fl oor (Fig.
5-1). This will ensure against fl ame diversion.

IMPORTANT
For all valves, the air MUST be purged from the gas line before the pilot will light properly. The time taken to do this
will depend on the length of gas line from the meter to the unit and the length of time since the unit or gas line was
last used (in the case of non-use during warm weather, for example). It may take from 3-15 minutes before all the air
is purged and the pilot will light properly. This is done using the method for lighting the pilot, but holding in the control
valve for a longer period. Follow the lighting instructions in this manual for the specifi c valve type.
