American gas log best fire campfire operating manual

Yes. Most vented log sets do soot. Since the flames touch the logs, soot will build up on them during the combustion process.

How do I clean the soot off the logs or must I leave it on them?

Soot on the logs just adds realism, but if you want to remove it, you can. A small soft bristle paint brush works well or vacuum with a soft brush attachment.

Must I have the damper fully opened?

Log sets differ from one model number to another. Check your installation instructions for the venting requirements.

Since I do not have adequate draft to burn firewood, can I use gas logs instead?

No. You can use vent-free gas logs but not vented logs. Vented logs require a working flue, the same as burning firewood.

Why does the pilot not stay lit or goes out when the burner is turned on.

If the pilot flame is still large enough to heat the tip of the thermocouple, then the thermocouple is burned out and needs to be replaced.

Do I ever need to replace the glowing embers in my log set?

They should never need replacing unless they get wet. Should the embers or sand (if there is sand underneath them) get wet, then they need replacing.

Can I use a blower with my vented logs?

No. Very few vented logs are certified for use with a blower. American Gas Log vented logs are not. However, if your fireplace has a built-in fan system, this can be used.

Can my vented gas logs be converted to vent-free?

No. Vented and vent-free logs are different in many ways and require different certifications. Vented logs must always be vented.

Can I add a remote to my gas logs?

Certain models will permit you to install a remote receiver. Please contact American Gas Log or your dealer for information for your specific model.
