K. Damper Stop Installation Instructions

Included in the burner assembly box is a damper stop clamp 

which attaches to the damper as shown (Figure 8). Install 

the clamp to the damper ensuring that the minimum require-

ments (Tables 1 and 2) are achieved. Use a 7/16 in. wrench 

to secure the clamp to the damper. If the damper clamp pro-

vided does not fit your application, other means of securing 

the proper opening must be provided by the installer.

• 

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 that the controls 

and  switches  are  unobstructed  after  the  granules  are 

installed. DO NOT COVER THE AIR MIXER LOCATED 

ON THE LOWER LEFT SIDE OF THE BURNER.

  Pour vermiculite into each burner pan to the point where 

each pan is completely full. Level the vermiculite from right 

to left to ensure an even flame pattern. See Figure 6.

J. For Propane Gas Installation

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

Personal Injury Risk

An explosion could occur if a connection is 

made  directly  to  an  unregulated  propane 

(LP) tank.

WARNING

•  Lightly place dime size pieces of rock wool evenly on top 

of the vermiculite to achieve a glowing ember effect. See 

Figure 7.

Note: 

Be sure to not cover the pilot assembly (located on 

the  right  side  of  the  burner  pan,  installed  in  the  vertical 

position) with vermiculite.

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.

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

Personal Injury Risk

Pour vermiculite into each burner pan (LP) to 

the point where each pan is completely full. 

Failure to do so may cause the lighting to be 

delayed and this can be dangerous..

WARNING

Note: 

The  state  of  Massachusetts  requires  that  the 

chimney flue damper, when used with gas logs, be welded 

open  or  completely  removed.  In  the  Commonwealth  of 

Massachusetts  this  appliance  must  be  installed  by  a 

licensed plumber or gas fitter.

Note: 

Log placement photos and instructions are located 

in the log packages.
