PROPANE (LP) GAS DANGERS AND WARNINGS
WARNING
LP gas is flammable and hazardous if handled improperly. Become aware of its
characteristics before using any LP gas product. Failure to understand and
follow these warnings or any directions and warnings provided by your LP gas
supplier may result in property damage, serious injury, or death.
DANGER
An LP gas tank should never be placed on its side. Doing so may cause liquid
propane to leak.
This could cause a fast buildup of LP gas and could lead to property damage,
serious injury, or death.
LP Gas Characteristics
-
LP gas is flammable, explosive under pressure, heavier than air and settles in pools in low
areas. Pooled gas may ignite causing a fire or explosion which could cause property
damage, serious injury, or death. -
In its natural state, LP gas has no odor. For your safety, a scent has been added.
-
Contact with LP gas could burn your skin.
LP Gas Tank Information
- LP gas tanks should be filled only by a certified LP gas dealer.
- Never use an LP gas tank with a damaged body, valve, collar or footing.
- Dented or rusted LP tanks may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP gas supplier.
- The LP gas supply tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with The Specifications for LP Gas Tanks of The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or The National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, LP Gas Tanks, Spheres and Tubes for The Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission.
- LP gas tanks must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
- LP gas tanks must have a listed overfilling prevention device (OPD) and a QCCI or Type I (CGA810) LP gas tank connection.
- The LP gas tank must contain a shut-o valve as specified in The Standard for Compressed Gas Cylinder Valve Outlet and Inlet Connection, ANSI/CGA-V-1-1977, CSA B96.
- Never attempt to attach this fireplace to the self-contained LP gas system of a camper, trailer, motor home or house.
- Hand-turn the manual gas control valve on your LP gas tank. Never use tools. If the valve will not turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a certified gas technician.
- The use of force or any attempt at amateur repair may cause a fire or explosion.
LP Gas Tank Storage and Safety
- LP gas tanks must be stored upright and outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of reach of children.
- Never store an LP gas tank in an enclosed area, such as a shed or garage. Leaking gas could build up in these areas and may result in an explosion.
- Do not store LP gas tanks near any source of flame or ignition.
- Never store an LP gas tank in direct sunlight or where temperatures can reach 125°F (51.67°C) or higher.
- Never keep a filled LP gas tank in a hot car or car trunk. Heat will cause the gas pressure to increase, which may open the relief valve and allow gas to escape.
- Place the dust cap on the LP gas tank valve outlet when the LP gas is not in use. Only use the dust cap that is provided with the LP gas tank. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of LP gas.
- The LP gas tank should not be dropped or handled roughly.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
-
Carefully turn the fire table on its side, using a piece of cardboard or a blanket to protect the finish.
-
Secure the 4 feet (5) in place as shown below. WARNING
The adjustable feet must be installed correctly on the fire table before operation to ensure safe use. -
Install the AA battery as shown in the diagram below.
-
Place the filler material into the burner pan by hand. To avoid clogging the burner with dust do not dump the bag into the burner pan. Position the filler across the burner pan to a level that is 1 inch (2.54 cm) above the burner tube. Make sure you do not block the igniter housing with the filler material to ensure proper ignition and operation.
If using glass filler, Real Flame suggests first placing a layer of lava rock in the burner pan to improve airflow. Filler Material Warning
• Do not overfill the burner area with rock or glass filler; use only the specified amount. The depth of the filler should not be more than 1 inch (2.54 cm) above the burner tube. Only Real Flame filler products have been certified and tested for safe use with this Real Flame fireplace. Using other filler material may result in increased popping and cracking or increased carbon monoxide emissions.
• Do not light or use this fireplace if the filler is wet. Ensure filler is completely dry before lighting. Intense heat can cause wet filler to explode and hit someone causing property damage, serious injury, or death.
• Keep away from the fireplace for at least 20 minutes during initial start-up as filler could retain moisture from manufacturing and shipping. -
Make sure the gas supply is turned to “OFF”. Remove the door and place the tank in the tank seat davits so that it sits securely and is level.
-

CARE AND CLEANING
Inspecting Your Fireplace
WARNING
DO NOT inspect, clean, move or store your fireplace until the flames are
COMPLETELY out and all parts are cool to the touch.
Your fireplace should be inspected regularly to ensure that it is safe to use
and to extend the life of its parts.
To inspect your fireplace follow these steps:
- Make sure all parts are securely fastened in place. If a part moves when touched, check its connection points to see if they are loose.
- Check all connections for leaks using the method described in the “Checking for Leaks” section of this manual.
- Check the igniter system by pushing the igniter button and verifying that a spark is being generated in the igniter housing.
- Visually check all components for any signs of damage, rust, or excessive wear.
- If damage or leaks of any kind are found. DO NOT operate the fireplace until the proper repairs have been made.
WARNING
DO NOT tamper with this fireplace. This is dangerous and will void the
warranty.
Repairs and modifications must be approved by Real Flame and completed by a
professional gas technician.
This fireplace has been tested and certified by a third party certification
agency based on its specific and unique parts. Installing any other parts will
void both the certification and the warranty.
For approved replacement parts contact Real Flame Customer Service at
1-800-654-1704.
General Care and Cleaning
After repeated use, a slight discoloration or weathering of the fireplace finish
may occur. Your fireplace should be cleaned regularly to ensure safe use and
extend its life.
General Cleaning
Make a cleaning solution using a mild soap mixed with water. Use a soft cloth
to wipe down exterior surfaces and rinse with clean water. Never use oven
cleaners or abrasive solvents as these will damage the fireplace.
Burner
The burner should be kept clean to ensure proper operation. Clogged burner
ports may be cleared with a paper clip or pin. Debris in the burner tube can
be cleaned using compressed air or a pipe cleaning brush.
Soot
After use it is possible for soot to develop on some surfaces. This soot
deposit will usually come off with water and mild soap.
Storage
- Turn the LP gas supply off at the tank. Remove the LP gas tank and store it in a cool, dry location, outside and away from children.
- Secure all loose filler material or parts.
- Remove the battery from the igniter box.
- Cover the fireplace when not in use and do not allow water to pool on the cover surface. Covering the fireplace will help to protect the internal components from dirt and debris and prevent the finish from fading.
- Store the fireplace in a cool, dry location away from children and pets.
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING
Spiders or other insects may build webs or nests in your fireplace burner tube
which can obstruct or block the flow of gas.
Some of the gas may back up in the burner tube and cause a flashback (a fire in
the burner tube or underneath the fireplace), which could result in property
damage, serious injury, or death. Check and clean the burner tube periodically
using a pipe cleaning brush (shown below) and compressed air available at any
hardware store.
Example of a typical burner tube.
Your exact burner may vary.
Example of pipe cleaning brush available at local hardware store.
TIPS AND TROUBLESHOOTING
If the Fireplace Will Not Ignite
If the igniter system is working correctly, you should hear a clicking sound
while the igniter button is being pushed and you should see a spark inside the
igniter housing. If you do not see the spark or hear a clicking sound, please
check the following:
- Make sure the battery is not dead and that it is installed correctly, with the positive (+) side facing out.
- If you still do not hear a clicking sound or see a spark in the igniter box, look under the fireplace and make sure that the electrode wire is correctly inserted into the back of the electronic igniter box. While inspecting the electrode wire, make sure that it is not cut or broken in any place. If the wire has been damaged contact Real Flame Customer Service at 1-800-654-1704 for a replacement.
If the Fireplace Will Not Stay Lit
If the fireplace lights, but will not stay lit, or remains lit only for a brief
time, please check the following:
- Make sure that the igniter housing is unobstructed. Clear away any filler material or debris on the housing and make sure there is nothing between the igniter pin and the thermocouple.
If the Fireplace Will Not Stay Lit (Cont.)
2. Make sure the thermocouple and igniter pin are correctly positioned.
Thermocouple – The thermocouple tip should be located close to the
burner, aligned with a burner port so that flames contact it directly. Make
sure the flames are making contact with the thermocouple tip.
Damaged Thermocouple
If the igniter housing and the thermocouple tip are clear of debris and the
flame is clearly contacting the tip of the thermocouple, but the fireplace will
still not stay lit, the thermocouple may be damaged. Look beneath the fireplace
and find the copper thermocouple wire coming out of the back of the valve.
Examine the length of it for any signs of damage. Sharp bends, kinks or damage
can cause the thermocouple to not function correctly. If you find damage to the
thermocouple contact Real Flame Customer Service at
1-800-654-1704 for a replacement.
Igniter Pin – The igniter pin is where the spark is generated to ignite
your fireplace. Make sure you can see this sparking when the igniter button is
pushed. If you do not see a spark please contact Real Flame Customer Service
at 1-800-654-1704.
Other Common Problems
Clogged or Obstructed Burner
It is common for bugs, especially spiders, to make webs or nests inside of
burner tubes.
If it seems like you are getting low or no gas flow, visually check all
openings in the burner for signs of clogs. If you see anything clogging the
burner try using a pipe cleaning brush and compressed air to remove the
debris.
Out of Gas
Be sure your LP gas tank is not empty. Low tanks can result in lower flames.
Cold Temperatures
Cold temperatures outside may result in lower LP gas tank pressures causing
the flames to be lower. Do not use your fireplace in extreme temperature
conditions. Allow the temperature of your LP gas tank to rise and as the
pressure in the LP gas tank increases the flame size will increase. NEVER heat
your LP gas tank; allow it to warm up naturally.
High Winds
Your fireplace is designed to operate in winds up to 10 mph (16.09 kaph). High
winds may cause the flame to blow out. Do not operate your fireplace in high
wind conditions.
If you continue to have problems with your fireplace please contact Real
Flame Customer Service at
1-800-654-1704.
