GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Burner and Burner Compartment
It is important to keep the burner and the burner compartment
clean. At least once per year the logs and lava rock/ember
material should be removed and the burner compartment vacu-
umed and wiped out. Remove and replace the logs as per the
instructions in this manual.
Always handle the logs with care as they are fragile and may
also be hot if the replace has been in use.
FK24/FK12 Fan Assembly
The fan unit requires periodic cleaning. At least once per
month in the operating season open the lower louvre panels
and wipe or vacuum the area around the fan to remove any
build up of dust or lint.

Clean the brass trim pieces using a soft cloth lightly dampened
with lemon oil. Do not use water or household cleaners on
any brass components.

GLASS CLEANING
It is necessary to periodically clean the glass.
During start-up condensation, which is normal, forms on the
inside of the glass. This condensation causes lint, dust and
other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.
Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight lm on the glass.
It is therefore recommended that the glass be cleaned two or
three times with a non-ammonia based household cleaner and
warm water (we recommend gas replace glass cleaner) within
the rst few weeks of operation.
After this initial cleaning process the glass should be cleaned
two or three times during each operating season depending on
the environment in the house.
Clean the glass after the rst two weeks of
operation.
