BURNER PREPARATION
After hooking up the burner to the fi replace gas supply and placing the
heat shield on the valve assembly (if applicable), the decorative media
(granules and glass / gems) must be added for the burner to function
as designed.
Note: Installation is the same for glass and gems. Glass
shown here. These instructions show sand granules being
used as a base for the glass, but only natural-gas burners
use sand. For propane burners, follow these instructions
using vermiculite.
WARNING
The burner and pilot (if equipped) must be OFF (fully extinguished),
and all valve covers must be in place before pouring media onto the
burner. It may also be necessary to temporarily cover the pilot assembly
(if equipped) to keep media out of it during this procedure.
GRANULE PLACEMENT
1. Pour the granules into the pan until they just cover the burner
tubes. Then pack the granules in the pan and around the burner
tubes. Add additional granules as needed to end with the granules
level with the top of the burner tubes. Slope the granules in the
front portions of the pan. See Fig. 15-1 and Fig. 15-3.
2. Place the separator screen over the granules such that the long
edges secure over the outside burner tubes, as shown in Fig.
15-2 and 15-3. If the long edges of the screen rise up and do not
rest fl at, bend them downward as needed.
Note: The screen must correctly rest onto the burner pan. If it sits
too high; remove some of the granules to ensure a proper
t. DO NOT allow for any granules to be above the screen.
GLASS / GEMS PLACEMENT
CAUTION: Glass pieces may have sharp edges. Be careful handling
the glass. Use hand protection, such as gloves, if
necessary.
1. Pour the glass / gems directly on top of the granules and screen
so that the burner pan is covered completely and evenly. Do not
exceed a 1" depth directly above the overall surface of the burner.
Note: At this stage the burner will function as designed;
however, more glass / gems may be added around the
burner for decorative purposes.
2. Add additional glass / gems around the burner pan as desired
(Fig. 15-4).
