I. For Natural Gas Installation
• Pour sand into the burner pans to the point where the
burner pipe is covered. See Figure 5. Level the sand
from right to left to ensure an even flame pattern. At this
point the pan should be half full. Be sure not to cover pilot
assembly.
• Pour vermiculite over the sand in the pans until they are
full. See Figure 6.
Note:
For best results, do not pack down the rock wool.
The placement of rock wool can have an effect on flame
pattern and may need to be adjusted to achieve a desired
appearance.

WARNING
Figure 6
Placing Vermiculite
Figure 5
Sand
• Lightly place dime-size pieces of rock wool evenly on top
of the sand and vermiculite to achieve a glowing ember
effect. See Figure 7.
•
Inspect the pilot burner to ensure it is clear of any
rock wool
.
• Remove the Platinum Bright Embers™ from the package.
For optimum performance peel each piece apart in layers
and lightly place on top of the vermiculite and rock wool
where the flame is blue. This will achieve the desired
realism.
• The gas burns at the point of the least resistance. In
case of an uneven flame pattern it may be necessary to
adjust the materials in the pans (using an object such as
a screwdriver) to achieve the desired effect.
• Place desired amount of lava granules on the floor of the
fireplace. DO NOT ALLOW THE GRANULES TO COME
IN CONTACT WITH THE FLAMES. (Lava granules may
contain moisture which, when heating, may cause it to pop
out during installation and set-up.) Ensure the controls
and switches are unobstructed after the granules are
installed.
