Observe flame height when lit. The burner will display blue and yellow flames. These flames should
be a blue/yellow color between 1 - 2 in. height. These flames should not be yellow or produce thick
smoke. This would indicate an obstruction of airflow through the burners. The flames should be blue
with straight yellow tops.

Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents.
While cleaning the fire pit, make sure to keep the area around the burner dry at all times. DO
NOT submerge the control valve assembly. If the gas control is submerged in water, DO NOT
use it. It must be replaced.
Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner, and circulating air passageways clean.
Signs of possible blockage include:
(1). Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
(2). Fire pit does NOT reach the desired temperature.
(3). Fire pit flame is excessively uneven.
(4). Fire pit makes popping noises.
(5). Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifice. This dangerous condition can damage fire
pit and render it unsafe for use. Clean burner holes by using a heavy-duty pipe clearer.
Compressed air may help clear away small particles.
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Clean burner with warm soapy water if any carbon
deposits develop.
Cover your fire pit with an outdoor weather cover when not in use to protect it from the elements.
NOTE: Always allow fire pit to cool COMPLETELY before you cover the fire pit with an outdoor
weather cover or you attempt service or maintenance.
