LOG PLACEMENT
NOTE: LOGS SUPPLIED SEPARATELY.
Log placement is very important for the proper operation of the Real-Fyre ® gas log set. Although you have some fl exibility in the log arrangement, it is necessary to follow the LOG PLACEMENT instructions carefully to fully enjoy your log set. Follow the steps below, referring to Fig. 7-1 through Fig. 7-5.
1. The second-longest log, the rear log, is placed on the rear of the grate with the bark of the log facing forward (Fig. 7-1). Center the log left to right (Fig.
7-5, #1). If the log has a heat chamber (a recess in the back), it can face either forward or to the rear.

3. Top logs should be stacked diagonally, with the largest at the bottom (Fig. 7-3, #3 & 4), and with spaces between the logs so that the fl ames are not choked off. Place the smaller logs diagonally across the larger ones (see Fig. 7-4, #5 & #6). The top logs may be moved to achieve desired fl ame pattern.
Some carbon buildup (sooting) may occur where the fl ames impinge on the logs and should not be a concern unless excessive. If sooting is excessive, rearrange the top logs to reduce fl ame impingement.
Examples of log stacks are shown below.
Note: Although log styles may differ in pattern or shape ( Fig. 7-6), layout is essentially the same. Adequate spacing between the logs is NECESSARY and MUST be maintained for best performance.
STEP 1. Place the second-longest log to the rear.

GLOWING EMBERS PLACEMENT
Note: Optional Charred Series log sets are supplied
Fig. 8-1 with an ember screen (Fig. 8-1).
Attach the ember screen to the burner by slipping it onto the back edge (center left to right) with the perforated section facing toward the back fi replace wall (Fig. 8-1). Cover the surface of the ember screen with the Glowing Embers (Fig. 8-2). For best glowing performance, they should be applied evenly and pulled slightly apart so the fi bers are somewhat loose. (It is not necessary to pile the
Fig. 8-2 entire bag of the Glowing Embers. More Glowing
Embers may be added after completion of the entire installation).

Place the long bottom rear log (Log #2) on the back of the grate with the fl at featureless side facing the rear of the fi replace. The two sections of the front log (Logs #1A & 1B) are placed on the front of the grate with the charred sections facing each other and approximately 1 inch apart at the top (Fig. 8-3).
Slide the logs to the front of the grate.
The charred sections should be over the opening between the front and rear logs (Fig. 8-4).
Place the small top charred logs (Logs #5 & 6) so they rest over the charred sections of the front bottom log sections (Logs # 1A & 1B) and on the two curved logs (Logs #3 & 4) (Fig. 8-5).
Note: Be sure to maintain a space between
the front and rear logs (Fig. 8-3). This creates energy effi ciency and heat radiation, and reduces carbon buidup.
Finally, place the curved top charred log (Log #7) to rest on the two top logs at rear, but not encroaching into the space between rear and front logs (Fig.
8-6).
Place the two curved logs (Logs #3 & 4) so that one end rests on each front log section (Logs #1A & 1B) and the other end rests on the rear log (Log #2).

REV 5 - 0705071310 9 L-A2-20707
MAINTENANCE & SERVICE
Maintenance
Once installed and operating properly, your Real-Fyre ® gas log set will require regular maintenance.
You should inspect your log set and controls (where installed) for the following:
1. Excessive sooting - Some sooting of your log set is normal, adding to the appearance of burned wood. If excessive sooting accumulates, clean the logs using any of the following options:
Option 1. Spray the logs with clean water when they are being burned and hot.
The soot will lift off and burn off.
Option 2. Brush the soot off with a stiff brush when the logs are cold.
Do not use water or soot cleaners at the same time as brushing the soot off.
2. Moisture may cause the granules and Glowing Embers in your burner pan to settle. To improve the burn, follow these tips.
a. Settling of sand (or vermiculite) - Using a screwdriver or fl at-blade knife, carefully stir the granules, loosening the material. Clear up any spills.
b. Embers - Break up any clumps that may have formed, then redistribute the embers on the granules.
3. Debris around the control (where used) - Inspect control and pilot to be sure it is free of dirt or debris.
Service
While some minor service conditions may be handled by the owner of the log set, it is recommended that a qualifi ed professional service technician be called to maintain and service the gas log set and any installed control system. The TROUBLESHOOTING section of these instructions serves as a guide for ensuring optimum performance of your gas log set.

This warranty does not cover parts becoming defective by misuse, accidental damage, electrical damage, improper handling, and/or installation or service (log sets must be installed as outlined in the enclosed instructions by a qualifi ed professional installer and with only Peterson parts, control valves, remotes, and accessories). It does not cover labor or labor-related charges. It specifi cally excludes liability for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.
