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 (sand/vermiculite 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 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.
SAND/VERMICULITE PLACEMENT
Pour the sand/vermiculite into the pan, just below level of the center
ame baffl e. Then pack the sand/vermiculite into the pan. Add
additional sand/vermiculite as needed (see Fig. 17-1).
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 burner pan so that
the burner pan is covered completely and evenly (see Fig. 17-2).
DO NOT exceed a 1" depth of glass directly above the burner
pan.
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
