INSTALLATION (cont.)

8. Be sure gas to the ﬁ replace is off. Attach the large adapter end of the ﬂ ex connector to the gas-supply

stub using a pipe compound resistant to all gases. Ensure adapter (and nut) are tightened securely.

Ensure the pan rests level on the ﬁ replace ﬂ oor after connection. Adjust the pan if necessary.

9. LEAK TEST: Turn on the ﬁ replace gas supply, and test at all connections for leaks using the appropriate

soapy water solution. If bubbles appear, a leak is present. Turn off the gas and tighten at all connections.

Repeat until no leaks are present. If a leak persists, turn off the gas supply and contact the local gas

company or dealer. NEVER USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS.

Turn off the gas supply prior to proceeding.

10. Place the heatshield over the regulator and/or valve.

Important: Heatshields must be in place during operation of the gas log set. Overheating of the

valve will cause shut down of the gas log set or other operating problems.

11. If this unit was shipped with a remote, read and follow the separate remote instructions (packed with

remote) for complete remote installation.

GRANULE, EMBER, AND GRATE PLACEMENT

GRANULE PLACEMENT

The granules supplied with the unit are specially selected for

use with either propane gas or natural gas. They maximize

ﬂ ame distribution and reduce carbon buildup.

1. Fill the burner pan completely with the granules*. See Fig.

12-1. Avoid spilling the granules on the pilot kit.

*Note: Use only select sand for natural gas burners and

vermiculite for propane gas burners.

2. Slope the granules at the same angle as the burner pan.

This is important to ensure quiet lighting and even ﬂ ame

distribution.

EMBER PLACEMENT

Sprinkle the glowing embers lightly and evenly over the entire surface of the granules. Break up any clumps

that may have developed during shipment. (For Charred series log sets, refer to OPTIONAL CHARRED

SERIES INSTALLATION section.)

Important: Do not add any additional embers to this log set. Any additional embers may cause

unsafe operation.

GRATE PLACEMENT

Replace the grate so that the bottom tabs on the log locator brackets ﬁ t over the back edge of the pan,

locking it in position.
