To ignite the Realflame C11813LP, ensure the gas valve is open, then press and turn the control knob to the "Ignite" position while pressing the igniter button until the flame lights. Hold the knob for a few seconds to secure the flame.
If the pilot light won't stay lit, check for drafts or blockages in the pilot tube. Ensure the thermocouple is clean and properly positioned. If issues persist, consider replacing the thermocouple.
To clean the burner, ensure the unit is cool and the gas supply is off. Remove the burner and clean it with a soft brush or compressed air. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals.
Regular maintenance includes checking for gas leaks, cleaning the burner and pilot light, inspecting the hose and connections, and ensuring the control knob functions properly.
For low flame issues, check the gas supply for adequate pressure, clean the burner ports, and ensure the regulator is functioning correctly. Adjust the air shutter if necessary.
Conversion from propane to natural gas is possible but should be done by a qualified technician. A conversion kit specific to the Realflame C11813LP is required.
If you smell gas, immediately turn off the gas supply and extinguish any open flames. Do not operate electrical switches. Ventilate the area and contact a professional technician to inspect the unit.
Ensure the unit is installed according to the manufacturer's guidelines, including proper clearance from flammable materials. Regularly check for leaks and ensure adequate ventilation when in use.
Symptoms of a blocked burner include irregular flame patterns, yellow tipping flames, or a lack of flame spread. Cleaning the burner and checking for obstructions can resolve these issues.
To winterize, disconnect the gas supply, clean the unit thoroughly, and cover it with a weather-resistant cover. Store the unit in a dry place to prevent moisture damage.
