Country Home Log Set Installation
The logs are fragile, and should be handled with care. Unpack and inspect log set. There should be a
total of seven logs. Gas plumbing and vent connections should be completed before proceeding.
Position the logs exactly as indicated by the following pictures. The three main logs have holes and /
or pins. Engage each pin in the corresponding holes. The four smaller logs do not have holes or pins.
They rest in position. Locate as per the diagrams.
Note: Improper placement of logs will cause sooting on internal parts and glass. The logs may need
to be repositioned slightly to avoid excessive ame impingement.
Note: If converting this fireplace from natural gas to propane at the same time as
installing this new log set, complete the propane gas conversion, See “Propane
Conversion” on page 11 first to avoid possible damage to the new log set.
Before adding the ember material please ensure that the 3 ceramic bre ller pieces are correctly
located in the burner as shown in Figure 18.
Two bags of ember material are shipped with the replace and need to be installed to ensure opti-
mum performance and ame appearance.
Pull apart the material into ember size pieces (approximately 1” squares) and gently place them into
the lower burner pan (Figure 19). Do not compress, leave it loose for best performance. Fill the lower
burner pan level with the top of the pan at rear, and gradually slope forward to the rebox oor, cov-
ering both lower burner tubes. Place remaining ember material outside of the burner pan as desired
to cover-up gas lines and brackets .
Note: Ember material placement and amount will affect ame appearance. More ember material
results in lower ame height. Add or remove as needed until desired ame affect.
Do not place any ember material on the upper burner tube.

1. Place the contents of one bag of ember material onto the surface of the lower burner (Figure 20).
Be sure to place enough ember material onto the front and back burner tubes so that the holes in
the tubes are no longer visible.
2. Locate the rst log positioning pins on the log grate (Figure 21).
3. The underside of the rst log has a square slot at the right side, and a round hole at the left side.
Position the right side of the log (with the square slot) onto its positioning pin. Then nish by plac-
ing the left side of the log (with the round hole) onto its positioning pin. Once the rst log is in
place it will hide the upper burner (Figure 22).

Figure 48: Desired ame appearance.
TC54_NG02D_060317-20
An air shutter on each of the burner tubes controls the primary combustion air to the gas burners
and are preset to 1/8” open 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 re-
place has reached operating temperature. See Figure 48 for proper ame pattern.
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.
Caution: Burner area may be hot!
Turn off the fireplace and allow the unit to cool before proceeding.
To Adjust: (See Figure 47)
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 logs and set aside.
3. Loosen the screw in the Primary Air
Shutter.
4. Rotate the shutter to increase or
decrease the amount of primary air.
5. Return all components to their original
positions and inspect ame appearance.
The ame should be just orange and
“lazy”. It should NEVER be set to create
soot on internal parts and glass.
