ADDING PAN MATERIAL AND
HEARTH TREATMENTS
1. Spread ash bed material (vermiculite) evenly
across burner pan and smooth it to height of
burner pan edges.
2. Apply approximately 1" (2.5 cm) size pieces
of ember material evenly over top of ash bed
material. Apply only enough to cover the
entire surface area of the pan. Applying exces-
sive amounts will only diminish the glowing
effect of the embers.
3. Spread lava rock evenly around front and sides of
burner pan. Do not place lava rock inside pan.

area near the burner air openings
with pan or hearth materials.
Burner air openings are located
on burner inlet fitting only on
models equipped for use with
propane/LP gas. All models for
use with natural gas may be fully
covered with hearth treatments.
4. Carefully place clay top onto chimenea base
and place clay cap into top opening.
Note: Some sooting may occur at joints of clay
components. This can be avoided by applying a high
temperature silicone based caulking (RTV or other)
between surfaces where clay components assemble.
