CLEANING AND SERVICING
Fig. 20-2
Note: Regular cleaning and servicing will be necessary to ensure proper ODS pilot operation and proper
burn characteristics.
A. Always shut off the gas to the unvented gas log set while performing service work.
B. Allow the unvented gas log set to cool before servicing.
C. Installation, service, and repair must be done by an NFI Certifi ed or other qualifi ed professional
service technician. The appliance MUST be inspected before use, and cleaned at least annually
to prevent burner shutdown, sooting, odors, etc. by a qualifi ed professional service technician. It
must be checked for clean burning operation and proper ODS pilot appearance, with the correct
tools to service this unit. More frequent cleaning may be required. Excessive lint can build up on
this unit from carpeting, bedding material, pet hairs, or other particles in the air. It is imperative that all
control components and compartments, burner(s), and circulating air passageways of the appliance be
kept clean and free of all obstructions. The ODS pilot is especially sensitive to a dirty environment and will
not function properly if dirty. Make certain all air openings are clean and free of obstructions, including:
1. The air intake opening on the ODS pilot assembly.
2. The ODS pilot opening.
3. The air shutters on both the bottom ember burners and the top main burner.
4. The carryover tubes. Obstructions in or around the carryover tube may result in the burner not lighting
and/or an intermittent popping noise from the fl ash tube.
WARNING: Failure to keep the primary air openings of the burner(s) clean may result in sooting and property
damage.
5. All of the ports on both the bottom ember burners and the top main burner. (See the CLEANING AND
SERVICING section.)
D. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing must be replaced prior to operating this gas
log set.
