Ember Material
A large bag of ember wool is
supplied with the Heartwood
burner kit and needs to be
installed on the burner to ensure
optimum performance and ame
appearance. A bag of large coal
chunks and small ember pieces
are also supplied. These must
only be used around the burner
pan to cover up the gas lines and
brackets.
1. Pull apart the ember wool into
ember size pieces (approxi-
mately 1” squares) and gently
place them into the burner pan.
Do not compress, leave them
loose for best performance.
2. Fill the burner pan level with
the top of the pan at rear, and
gradually sloping forward down
to the rebox oor at the front,
covering both burner tubes
(Figure 9).
3. Place remaining ember
material, coal chunks and
small ember material outside
of the burner pan as desired
to cover-up gas lines and
brackets. (Figure 10). Do not
put coal chunks or small
ember pieces inside burner
pan as this will cause
sooting and the burner to
malfunction.
Note: Ember material placement and amount will affect
flame appearance.
More ember material results in lower flame height.
Add or remove as needed until desired flame affect.
Reduce the amount used on Propane models, as too
much will create soot

Log Set Assembly
Gas plumbing and vent connections
should be completed before
proceeding.
The logs are fragile, and should be
handled with care. Unpack and inspect
log set. There should be a total of
seven logs.
Position the logs as indicated by the
following pictures. The seven main logs
have holes and / or pins. Engage each
pin in the corresponding holes. The
remaining two logs do not have holes
or pins. They rest in position. Locate
as per the diagrams (Figures 11-19)
Note: Improper placement of logs
will cause sooting on internal parts
and glass. The logs may need to
be repositioned slightly to avoid
excessive flame impingement.

Propane Conversion
If the unit is to be used with propane gas, convert the fireplace from natural gas as follows using the
components supplied with this burner kit.
Note: Factory supplied components must be used to ensure correct input. After conversion conrm proper
manifold pressure.
CAUTION
The gas supply and electrical power must be shut off before proceeding with the conversion.
WARNING
This conversion kit shall be installed by a qualied service agency in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions and all applicable codes and requirements of the authority having
jurisdiction.
If the information in these instructions is not followed exactly, a re, explosion or production of
carbon monoxide may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
The qualied service agency is responsible for the proper installation of this kit.
The installation is not proper and complete until the operation of the converted appliance is
checked as specied in the manufacturer's instructions supplied with the kit.
1. Ensure the burner, pilot and gas supply are turned off, and the appliance has cooled.
2. Remove the two screws securing the manifold assembly to the burner (Figure 20).
3. Remove the manifold assembly from the burner (Figure 21).
Figure 20: Unscrewing manifold from the burner. Figure 21: Orice exposed.
Note: The propane conversion kit is not included with the burner kit. The
conversion kit is an option which must be ordered separately.

4. With a ½” wrench remove the natural gas orice (Figure 22).
5. Install the 2.50 mm propane orice (our part # 5022.3) (Figure 23).
6. Fully open the primary air shutter.
Figure 22: Removing orice. Figure 23: Orice.
Figure 24: Loosening the pilot head.
7. Reinstall the manifold assembly.
8. With a 7/16” wrench loosen the pilot head on the pilot assembly by a half-turn (Figure 24)
9. Slide the pilot adjustment band over and ensure that the hole in the orice band is showing. Figure 25
shows the pilot band in natural gas position. Figure 26 shows the pilot band in propane position.

For complete valve installation instructions, refer to the
instruction book included in the SIT conversion kit.
10. Open the air shutter by following the steps in the “Burner Flame Adjustment” on page 13.
11. Complete the gas valve conversion from natural gas to propane gas according to the instructions included
in the SIT propane gas conversion kit.
12. Once conversion is complete, ll out and place gas conversion label (Figure 27) to inside of control box
where it will not be affected by the heat of the rebox.

The air shutter on the burner tube controls the primary combustion air to the gas burner and is preset at the
factory for natural gas fuel. Some adjustment may be necessary to obtain desired ame and to eliminate
carbon deposits. Evaluate ame appearance after the replace has reached operating temperature.
Open primary air shutter if the logs, glass, and rebox have carbon accumulation and / or the ames are long,
dark and stringy. The shutter may also be opened to enhance the Ember Material glow and lessen the ame
height. See Figure 28 for an example of a proper looking ame. The ame should be just orange and “lazy”. It
should NEVER be set to create sooting on internal parts and glass.
Caution: Burner area may be hot! Turn off the replace and allow the unit to cool before proceeding.
Burner Flame Adjustment
To Adjust:
1. Open and remove window frame and set aside. See "Window Frame Removal" section found in the
Installation and Operating Instructions manual.
2. Remove the log set and set aside.
3. Locate and loosen the air shutter adjustment screw (Figure 31).
4. Rotate the shutter to increase or decrease the air intake depending on type of gas being used.
5. Tighten adjustment screw and reassemble in log set.
