Frequently Asked Questions and Troubleshooting
Frequently Asked Questions – Appliance
ISSUE | SOLUTIONS |
---|---|
Condensation on the glass | This is a result of gas combustion and temperature |
variations. As the fireplace warms, this
condensation will disappear.
Blue flames| This is a result of normal operation and the flames will begin to yellow as the fireplace is allowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
Odor from fireplace
| When first operated, this fireplace may release an odor for the first
several hours. This is caused by the curing of the paint and the burning of
any oils remaining from manufacturing. The odor may also be released from
finishing materials and adhesives used around the fireplace. These
circumstances may require additional curing related to the installation
environment.
Film on the glass| This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint
and logs. Glass should be cleaned within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to
remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing process. A non-abrasive
cleaner such as a gas fireplace glass cleaner may be necessary. See your
dealer.
Metallic noise
| Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools
down, similar to the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise
does not affect the operation or longevity of the fireplace.
Is it normal to see the pilot flame burn continually?| In an intermittent
pilot ignition system (IPI), the pilot flame should turn off when the
appliance is turned off. Some optional control systems available with IPI
models may allow the pilot flame to remain lit.
Power Outages
(battery backup)
| This appliance can be operated on battery power in the event of a power
outage. To access the battery pack, the decorative front, mesh, and glass
assembly must be removed. Refer to Section 3 for more details.
The wall above the appliance feels hot to the touch.| No action is necessary.
This appliance ships with a non-combustible material attached. Specifications
of the attached non-combustible material are listed in the Installer’s Manual
for this appliance.
Contact your dealer for additional information regarding operation and troubleshooting. Visit www.majesticproducts.com to locate a dealer.

front of it. The remote acts as the thermostat.
Remote is placed in the path of an air draft or vent.| Move the remote away from the direct path of airflow. The remote acts as the thermostat.
Flame Modulation
| The control system is designed to automatically adjust the flame intensity
based on the difference between the desired room temperature, and actual
temperature. In thermostat mode, the hearth appliance will start in HI flame,
but as the actual temperature approaches the desired set temperature on the
remote, the flame intensity will automatically decrease. Automatic flame
modulation will result in more control of the temperature and will cause the
appliance to cycle OFF/ON less.
The appliance turns OFF the flame
after extended periods of operation
| ****
