LOGS
• If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to
Installing Logs, Lava Rock and Glowing
Embers, page 31, to properly replace logs.
• Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any
carbon buildup on logs.
• Replace log(s) if broken. See Replacement
Parts on page 45.
•
Replace ember material periodically as
needed. See Replacement Parts on page 45.
Conduct annual inspection of the venting
system following these guidelines:
1. Check areas of venting system that are
exposed to the weather for corrosion (rust

TROUBLESHOOTING
Note: All troubleshooting items are listed in order of operation.
The two most common causes of a malfunctioning gas appliance are:
1. Loose wiring connections
2. Construction debris clogging the pilot and/or gas control valve lter
1. Ignitor electrode not con-
nected to ignitor cable
2. Ignitor cable pinched or
wet
3. Piezo ignitor nut is loose
4. Broken ignitor cable
5. Bad piezo ignitor
6. Ignitor electrode broken
7. Ignitor electrode positioned
wrong
REMEDY
1. Reconnect ignitor cable
2. Free ignitor cable if pinched
by any metal or tubing.
Keep ignitor cable dry
3. Tighten nut holding piezo
ignitor. Nut is located behind
the mounting bracket
4. Replace ignitor cable
5. Replace piezo ignitor
6. Replace pilot assembly
7. Tighten electrode. Replace
if necessary
When ignitor button is pressed,
there is no spark at pilot
spots or streaks and, in extreme cases,
holes). Have these items replaced im-
mediately by a qualied service person.
2. Remove vent cap and shine a ashlight
into vent. Remove any foreign material.
3. Check for evidence of excessive con-
densation. Continuous condensation can
cause corrosion of caps, pipes and ttings
and can be caused by having excessive
lateral runs, too many elbows or exterior
portions of the system being exposed to
cold weather.
4. Inspect joints to verify that no pipe section
or tting has been disturbed and loos-
ened. Check mechanical supports such
as wall straps for rigidity.
