ISSUE SOLUTIONS
Condensation on the glass
This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the replace warms, this conden-
sation will disappear.
Blue ames
This is a result of normal operation and the ames will begin to yellow as the replace is allowed to
burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
Odor from replace
When rst operated, this replace may release an odor for the rst several hours. This is caused
by the curing of materials from manufacturing. Odor may also be released from nishing materials
and adhesives used near the replace. These circumstances may require additional curing related
to the installation environment.
Film on the glass
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint. Glass should be cleaned within 3 to 4
hours of initial burning. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas appliance glass cleaner may be nec-
essary. See your dealer.
Metallic noise
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to the
sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or longevity
of the replace.
Rock noise
There may be some “cracking” noise coming from the replace during the rst few heating and
cooling cycles. This noise is associated with settling rock and some minor cracking of larger
pieces of rock. This will lessen over time as the glass rock is conditioned to the heating and cool-
ing temperature changes.
Rocks falling through basepan
It is expected that a few small pieces of rock may fall through the basepan and come to rest on the
replace bottom. This has no affect on replace performance.
Wall above appliance feels hot to
the touch.
No action necessary. This appliance ships with a non-combustible material attached. Speci ca-
tions of the attached non-combustible material are listed in Section 1.E.
