Print PageFLASHBACK (flames in the burner tubes)
• If a flash back occurs (indicated by a roaring noise), immediately
close the cylinder valve.
• Turn the log heater OFF at the control knob.
• Disconnect the regulator from the gas cylinder and allow the
heater to cool.
• Check for blockages in the venturi ports. Clean with compressed
air, a small soft brush or pipe cleaners.
• If the problem persists in reuse, have the log heater checked by
a qualified technician.
CHANGING YOUR CYLINDER
Make sure the cylinder valve is closed (by turning it clockwise).
Allow the log heater to fully cool before replacing the cylinder.
ALWAYS check that the regulator-sealing washer (nose cone)
is intact and in place before reattaching the regulator to a cylinder.
DO NOT attempt to remove the regulator while the log heater is
on or if the cylinder valve is not closed.
Always make sure the heater is OFF and cool, with the cylin-
der valve closed, before conducting any maintenance.
• Your heater should be checked once a year by a qualified
technician.
• If faults are suspected or detected, stop using the heater and
contact ALVA.
• Clean the exterior and storage area of your heater when
required to remove dust and prevent lint build up.
• DO NOT use abrasive products to clean the heater; these
may damage may damage the heater frame and ceramic
logs.
• While in operation, the pilot flame should be steady.
If any part of the log heater is in need of replacing, use only
original ALVA parts. Using any other spare parts is dangerous
and will void the warranty. When the log heater is not going to
be used for an extended period of time, keep covered or in its
box, to prevent dust from settling on the logs. When removing
the heater from storage, use a vacuum cleaner to clean the
logs before re-use.
