Unless the ONE6 Direct-Vent Gas Fireplace was originally ordered with the Birch Log Set, your fireplace will have shipped from the factory with a Glass Media burner in place. Before installing the\ log set burner, you will need to remove the glass burner. See following steps 1-4 to remove the Glass Media burner. If the fireplace has been ordered with the Log Set Burner, you can skip to Step 10 (Page 4 of this manual).

REMOVAL OF GLASS MEDIA BURNER

The burner is held in place by 4 sheet metal screws, 2 on the left and 2 on the right. To make access to these screws easier, we are going to loosen the valve bracket so it can be moved slightly. Figure 1 shows the screw on the left under side of the firebox securing the back of the valve bracket, remove this screw. Keep this screw in a safe place as it will be needed to secure the valve bracket again once the logset burner is installed.

Figure 2 shows the screw on the right underside of the firebox which secures the front of the valve bracket, remove this screw. Keep this screw in a safe place a it will be needed to secure the valve bracket again once the logset burner is installed.

Figure 2
The valve bracket is still secured by a third screw, without removing this screw, the valve bracket and valve can be pulled down approximately ½” (12mm) as shown in Figure 3

Figure 3
The burner is held in place by 4 sheet metal screws, 2 on the left and 2 on the right. Figure 4 shows 2 screws on the left under side of the firebox, remove these screws. Keep these screws in a safe place as they will be needed to install the Log Set burner.

Figure 5 shows the 2 screws on the right underside of the firebox, remove these screws. A 5/16”, 6” or longer nut driver will make removal of these screws easier. Keep these screws in a safe place as they will be needed to install the Logset burner.

To remove the burner from the fireplace, slide the entire assembly to the right before lifting up to remove as shown in Figure 6.

NOTE: The log set burner can be configured for either Natural Gas or Propane by installing or removing a collar on the burner venturi. Figure 8 shows the venturi inlet with the collar installed on a burner configured for Natural Gas. Figure 9 shows the venturi inlet with the collar removed from a burner configured for Propane. THIS VENTURI IS NOT ADJUSTABLE. If you need to convert your burner from Propane to Natural Gas or vice-versa, please order the appropriate conversion kit for your appliance.

Confirm that the burner inlet tube has engaged the burner orifice. (Figure 10)

STEP 6
Evenly distribute the included 7oz of lava rock on the exposed burner top. Cover the burner top completely but do not compress or “pack” the lava rock tightly. Pay special attention to tight and hard to reach areas when placing the media on the burner. It is ok if small amounts of lava rock are lost over the edge of the burner. (Figure 13)
