3. Start the main burner by turning the gas control knob to ON and then
turn the rocker switch to ON. Check that all burner ports have ame.
4. Leak test all gas joints again.
AIR SHUTTER:
The air shutter adjustment lever is centered above the controls (see Figure 4).
The air shutter allows the amount of air coming into the replace to be adjusted in order to accommodate
different climates and venting arrangements. Start the pilot and then the burner. Make sure the pilot
ame is burning normally and none of the burner ports are plugged. Let the replace burn for roughly
fteen minutes and then examine the ames, compare the ames to Figure 40.
The ideal ame will be blue at the base and light orange above. The ames should be of medium height.
If the ames look like this, no venturi adjustment is needed. If the ames are fairly short and mostly
   
   
 
blue, the replace is getting too much
air. Therefore, the air shutter should be
closed (push in) slightly until the correct
ames are achieved. Flames that are
very orange, with tall, dark, stringy tips,
are not getting enough air. Open (pull
out) the venturi until the ames clean
up. If the venturi is opened, or closed all
the way, and the correct ames cannot
be attained, turn off the gas and contact
the dealer.
Warning: Incorrect venturi adjustment
may lead to improper combustion, which
is a safety hazard. Contact the dealer if
there is any concern about the venturi
adjustment.

Operating Instructions
For Your Safety, Read Safety Precautions And
Lighting Instructions Before Operating
E) Turn on all electrical power to the unit.
NOTE: Check that all burner holes are lit.
TO TURN GAS FIREPLACE OFF:
Flip switch to OFF to turn off burners only.
If the replace is to be turned off for the season,
or for servicing, turn the gas shut off valve to
OFF. DO NOT FORCE IT. If the unit is going to
be serviced, turn off the electrical power to the
unit as well.
NOTE: When the unit is turned on for the rst time, it should be turned onto high, with the fan OFF,
for the rst two to four hours. This will cure the paint, logs, gasket material, and other products used
in the manufacturing process. It is advised that a door or window be opened as the unit will start to
smoke, which can irritate some people. After the unit has gone through the rst burn, turn the unit OFF,
including the pilot, and let the unit get completely cold. Then remove the glass and clean it with a good
gas replace glass cleaner, available at your local Enviro dealer. See “MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE; GLASS
DOOR REMOVAL” and “MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE; CLEANING THE GLASS.”
REMOTE CONTROLS:
This replace can use an optional remote control or an optional cordless wall thermostat. If either of
these are to be used to control the replace for the majority of the time, leave the ON/OFF switch (on the
control panel) in the remote/thermostat position. Consult the instructions included with the remote/wall
thermostat for operation guidelines.

BURNER LIGHTING:
A) Make sure the pilot is lit.
B) Turn gas control knob COUNTER CLOCKWISE to ON.
C) Flip the burner switch to ON.
D) Turn HI/LO knob to the desired ame height.
The blower will come on only when the replace is up to temperature
(approximately 20 minutes). The speed of the fan can be changed by turning the
fan control knob. To turn the blower off, turn the knob COUNTER CLOCKWISE
until it “clicks” off (Figure 6).
It is advisable not to operate the blower below 1/3 speed as it puts a strain on the
windings of the blower and running the blower at lower speeds could also cause
premature fan failure.

Maintenance And Service
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE:
At least once a year, run through the following procedures to ensure the system is clean and working
properly. Check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean. Check the pilot to make sure it is not
blocked by anything. The pilot ame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.
Warning: Clearances must be sufcient to allow access for maintenance and service
Warning: Failure to position the parts in accordance with this manual, or failure to use only parts
specically approved with this appliance may result in property damage or personal injury.
The venting system must be periodically examined; it is recommended the examination is done by a
qualied agency.
CLEANING THE GLASS:
When the replace has cooled, remove the face of the replace along with the glass. See MAINTENANCE
AND SERVICE - GLASS DOOR REMOVAL. Check the gasket material on the back of the glass, making sure that
it is attached and intact.
During a cold start up, condensation will sometimes form on the glass. This is a normal condition with all
replaces. However, this condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial paint
curing of the appliance can leave a slight lm behind the glass, a temporary problem. The glass will need
cleaning about two weeks after installation. Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth; abrasive
cleaners will damage the glass and plated surfaces. Depending on the amount of use, the glass
should require cleaning no more than two or three times a season. Do not clean the glass when it is
hot.
CLEANING THE FIREBOX:
Remove the logs carefully, as they are very fragile. Gently remove all the embers and rock wool and place
on a paper towel. Vacuum the bottom of the rebox thoroughly. Carefully clean any dust off the logs and
remove any lint from the burner and pilot. At this time, inspect the burner pan for cracking or severe
warping. If a problem is suspected, contact the dealer. Check the logs for deterioration or large amounts
of soot; a small amount on the bottom side of the logs is normal. Replace the logs and embers as in the
LOG SET AND EMBER INSTALLATION section. If new/more embers and rock wool are required, contact your
nearest ENVIRO dealer.
REPLACING THE GLASS:
The glass in the replace is a high temperature ceramic. If the glass is damaged in any way, a factory
replacement is required (see PARTS LIST - COMPONENTS). Wear gloves when handling damaged glass door
assembly to prevent personal injury. When the glass door assembly is being transported, it must be
wrapped in newsprint and tape and/or a strong plastic bag. Do not operate with the glass front removed,
cracked or broken. Removal and replacement of the glass from the door must be done by a licensed or
qualied service person. The glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer. No substitute
materials are allowed.

Maintenance And Service
CLEANING DECORATIVE SURFACES:
Painted and porcelain faces should be wiped with a damp cloth periodically. If a plated face has been
purchased, it should be unpacked/unwrapped carefully to avoid getting anything on the surface of the
nish, including cleaners, polish and nger prints. It is important to note that ngerprints and other
marks can leave a permanent stain on plated nishes. To avoid this, give the face a quick wipe with
denatured alcohol on a soft cloth BEFORE lighting the replace. Never clean the face when it is
hot. Do not use other cleaners as they may leave a residue, which can become permanently etched into
the surface.
If your ngers come into contact with the antique copper nish, the oils left as ngerprints on the copper
can cause discoloration, which will eventually turn green in that area. You can clean the patina or discolored
areas of the antique copper nish with “OO” 3M green sanding pads. These can be purchased from most
hardware stores. On the areas with discoloration, use the sanding pads to sand in the same direction as
the brushed nish, then blend the nish by feathering in the surrounding area. This renishing procedure
has been approved by the manufacturer and will not harm the nish. Please note: ANTIQUE COPPER IS
THE ONLY FINISH THAT CAN BE SANDED, DO NOT SAND PEWTER, GOLD OR NICKEL FINISHES.
GLASS DOOR REMOVAL:
In order to install the log set, and
for regular cleaning, the glass door
must be removed. There are two
(2) door latch mechanisms under
the glass door shown in Figure
7. Each latch has two (2) nger
grooves, use these to pull the
mechanisms straight out. When
the bottom latches are unhooked,
lift the door straight up over the
placement pins at the top of the
door, shown in Figure 8.
To replace the glass door, simply
reverse the above procedure.
Warning: Do not touch or attempt
to remove the glass if the replace
is not completely cold.
WARNING: Never operate
the replace with the glass
removed.
