Maintenance and Safeguards
Keep the control compartment, logs and burner area
around the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing
at least twice a year. At altitudes above 4,500 feet
(1370m) monthly cleaning is recommended.
THE LOGS CAN GET VERY HOT. HANDLE ONLY
WHEN COOL.
Always turn off gas to the pilot before cleaning. For
relighting, refer to the lighting instructions.
The appliance and venting system (if used) should be
inspected before initial use, and at least annually by a
qualified field service person.
Always keep the appliance area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
Never obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air. Keep the front of the appliance clear of all obstacles
and materials.
Leave clearance of at least 36” from the front of the
fireplace.
Although your gas logs are very realistic in appearance,
the fireplace must not be used for burning any solid
fuels.
To avoid irreparable damage to the appliance or per-
sonal injury, matches, paper, garbage, or any other
material must not be placed or thrown on top of the
logs or into the flames.
To avoid personal injury, do not touch hot surfaces
when the appliance is operating. Touch only the valve
control knob. Avoid contact with the grate feet or
prongs, or any other part which may be very hot.
Always ensure that the fireplace screen is closed when
the appliance is operating.
Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing the
appliances must be replaced before operating the ap-
pliance.
Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is
being operated near children.
The appliance is intended for use as a gas heater
mounted in a vented or unvented fireplace as described
in the installation section of these instructions. It should
not be used for any other purpose.
Inspecting the Venting System
A vented fireplace venting system is designed and con-
structed to develop a positive flow adequate to remove
flue gasses to the outside atmosphere. See vented
fireplace installation instructions.
Any foreign objects in the venting system, except those
designed specifically for the venting system, may cause
spillage of the flue gases into the room.
In extreme situations, carbon monoxide poisoning or
suffocation may occur.
Periodic examination and cleaning of the venting
system of the solid-fuel burning fireplace must be done
frequently by the home owner or a qualified agency.
UVLX System Maintenance
The UVLX burner and control system consists of:
• Chassis
• Gas Orifice
• Grate assembly
• UVLX18 - four (4) decorative logs
UVLX24 - five (5) decorative logs
UVLX30 - six (6) decorative logs
• Gas valve assembly
• Pressure regulator (UVLX18M, UVLX24M and
UVLX30M only)
Most of these components require only occasional
check-up and cleaning. Some may require adjustment.
If repair is needed, it should be performed by a qualified
technician.
In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly,
turn off the gas to the unit and remove the logs, expos
-
ing the burner and pilot assembly. Clean all foreign ma-
terials from the top of the burner. Check to make sure
that all burner parts are clean. Visually inspect the pilot.
Brush or blow away any dust or lint accumulations.
NOTE: The burner and pilot assembly should be
checked for any dust or lint at least every six months.
