LAVA GRANULES (DECORATIVE)
1. Spread the supplied lava granules on the fl oor of the
fi replace, around the front and sides of the burner system
(see Fig. 10-1).
Note: DO NOT place any lava media on the burner system,
or behind it.
SAND GRANULES PLACEMENT
The sand granules supplied with the unit are specially selected
for use with natural gas. They maximize fl ame distribution and
reduce carbon buildup.
CAUTION: Use only the sand provided for this natural gas
burner.
1. Fill the burner pan completely with the granules (see Fig.
10-2). Avoid spilling the granules on the pilot assembly
(if equipped).
2. Slope the granules at the same angle as the burner pan.
This is important to ensure quiet lighting and even fl ame
distribution.
Note: The granules should be approximately
1
/
2
" below the
fi ngers of the burner grate (see Fig. 10-3). DO NOT
pour the granules to a level where they are touching
the grate.
INITIAL GLOWING EMBERS PLACEMENT
Important: The supplied embers are to be applied at several
stages of installation. You may end up with some
unused embers at the end of installation. If so,
store them for later use/replacement.
Sprinkle a portion of the glowing embers A lightly and evenly
over the entire surface of the sand granules as shown in Fig.
10-4. Break up any clumps that may have developed during
shipment. Store unused embers for later use/replacement.
