To properly install the burn media for the Rinnai Linear 800 Flametech Log Set, please follow these step-by-step instructions:
1. Before starting the installation, carefully unpack the entire burn media set and inspect each part for damage.
2. Make sure the base panel is properly fixed in place and that the brass aeration sleeves are correctly fitted over the injectors with the top of the sleeve slightly above the fire base.
3. Take the centre log and fit it into the valley in the middle of the base panel. There is a slot in the front of the panel that lines up with the notch in the end of the log.
4. Place a layer of glass over the holes in the base panel. Avoid covering the area beyond the holes. Use about eighty percent of the glass for this step.
5. Fit the second log into the back left corner. You might need to move some of the glass to get the log to sit flat.
6. Identify the left and right hand FlameTech logs. The left log is slightly shorter than the right. Carefully inspect both logs for any damage.
7. Place the right hand log in position. Fit the copper sleeve on the base of the burner over the aeration sleeve. The outer, or right hand end of the log should sit on the base panel with the other end resting on top of the centre log. There should be a gap between the base panel and the block on the underside of the burner.
8. Place the left hand log in position. The outer edge should sit on the base panel and the other end resting on the centre log. There should be a gap between the base panel and the burner block.
9. Start the fire and check for complete ignition around both burners. Adjust the gap between the burners if necessary.
10. If the flames are not optimal, adjust the position of the burners or the flame rod to ensure reliable operation. Take care when adjusting the flame rod, as it works best on the edge of the flame.
11. Place the three remaining logs as shown, taking care not to dislodge the FlameTech burner or compromise the operation of the pilot.
12. Place any remaining glass pieces around the logs and cover any parts where you can see directly through the base panel. Place the large black granules over the top of the glass. Sprinkle the vermiculite over and around the media bed to achieve the desired look.
13. Refit the glass and operate the fire for at least ten minutes to ensure the burner is operating with nice even flames on high and low burner settings.
Following these steps should ensure the proper installation of the burn media for the Rinnai Linear 800 Flametech Log Set. For more detailed guidance, you can also refer to the instruction manual or watch the 'Linear 800 - FlameTech Log Set Installation' video on the Rinnai NZ YouTube channel.
