GENERAL PERIODIC INSPECTIONS
Check the venting system annually and make sure the system is clear of any debris. Check flame patterns
periodically. Allow 15 minutes for a flame to reach maximum color and height.
GENERAL CLEANING, PAINTED SURFACES
Occasionally dry rag dust the Inglenook to keep the painted surface looking new. Paint can be touched up
as needed. Clean any area to be painted with fine steel wool. Remove all trim or cover all trim and controls
with masking tape. Then, touch up the stove with Stove Bright
®
high temperature stove paint. Do not over
paint as this will only lead to paint peeling problems.
GENERAL CLEANING, PLATED SURFACES
When cleaning plated trim, use special care to avoid damage. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners.
Wipe only with a very soft damp cotton cloth to maintain original brilliance. CAUTION: Vigorous wiping
may remove or discolor the plated finish.
MAIN ORIFICES
FIGURE 23 shows the valve plate assembly, Item E. This part is installed in the combustion chamber of
the Inglenook fireplace. The pilot assembly, Item C, comes preinstalled into Item E. Inspect the wiring of
the pilot assembly before installation to ensure all wires are properly connected to the gas valve. The gas
control valve, Item D must be plumbed to the gas line cut-off valve that has been installed in the lower
chamber of the Inglenook. The front burner spud orifice (Item A) and the rear burner spud orifice (Item B)
need to be installed according to the fuel type that will be used. Refer to TABLE 3 to obtain the correct
orifice size for both fuel and altitude requirements that site-specific location dictates. Item A and Item B are
the front and rear spud orifices. Inspect them for the proper size for the gas being used.

GAS FLAME INSPECTION
The flames will be blue during the first 5 minutes or so but over a period of 15 minutes, the flame will
gradually turn yellow. Flame intensity and the glowing logs vary with the specific type of fuel and venting
conditions. Refer to FIGURE 5d for a picture that shows a proper flame for natural gas.
