gas fi replace, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target
for spiders and other insects. They can nest in the venturi section (1) of the
burner tube. This blocks the normal gas fl ow, and can cause the gas to fl ow
back out of the air shutter. This could result in a fi re, causing serious damage
to your fi replace.
Thus, it is imperative that control compartment, burners and air vents
of the appliance be kept clean.
The burner tube air shutter is fi tted with a stainless steel screen (1) to
prevent spiders and other insects access to the burner tube through the air
shutter openings.
We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect screen at least once
a year. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean
the Spider/Insect screen if any of the following symptoms should ever
occur:
1) The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner fl ame appearing yellow
and lazy.
2) Burner does not ignite.
ƽ DANGER
Failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may
result in a fi re, which can cause serious bodily injury
or death, and cause damage to property.
