service technician perform an appliance checkup at the beginning
of each heating season. Specific guidelines regarding each
appliance maintenance task are listed below.

YOUR APPLIANCE.

Task: Brush or vacuum the control compartment, fireplace logs
and burner areas surrounding the logs.

Task: Make a visual check of your fireplace’s flame patterns.
Make sure the flames are steady - not lifting or floating. The

Checking Vent System
Frequency: Before initial use and at least annually thereafter,
more frequently if possible.
