This guide walks you through the complete assembly and operation of your EcoSmart Fire gas burner fireplace. Follow each step carefully to ensure safe and correct setup.
⚠️ Important: Only a licensed plumber may perform a gas installation. Always follow local gas regulations.
Burner Assembly
Step 1: Install the Metal Tray
Install the metal tray (if applicable) into the surround unit. This tray sits inside the unit and provides the base for the burner assembly.
Step 2: Position the Burner Assembly
Position the burner assembly so that the gas input flexible line (where the orifice is located) is pointing towards the control plate cutout location of the surround.
Step 3: Uncoil the Thermocouple Tube
Carefully uncoil the thermocouple tube. Take care not to kink or damage it during this process.
Step 4: Feed Lines Through the Opening
Feed the flexible gas line, thermocouple tube, grounding wire, and the ignitor wire through the burner location opening first, then lower the burner into its final location.
Step 5: Install the Grommet & Set Burner Position
Install the grommet by sliding it into the slot. Place the burner into its final position.
Gas Connection
Step 1: Route the Propane Hose
Slide the black propane tank hose under the surround unit and out through the control panel opening.
Step 2: Regulator End Connects to Propane Tank
The other end of the black propane hose with the regulator will attach to the propane tank.
Step 3: Pull Hoses Through the Control Plate Cutout
Pull all hoses and wires from inside the unit out through the control plate cutout.
Step 4: Attach the Flexible Gas Line
Attach the flexible propane gas line to the inlet valve fitting (arrow pointing in).
Step 5: Connect the Thermocouple
Connect the thermocouple to the control valve.
Step 6: Plug in the Ignitor & Grounding Wires
Plug the ignitor wire and grounding wire into the back side of the sparker.
Control Panel Installation
Step 1: Insert the Control Panel
Insert the assembled control panel into the side of the surround unit.
Step 2: Secure with Screws
Secure the control panel assembly with the 4 screws provided.
Media Installation
Step 1: Install the Glass Screens
Install the glass screens on either side of the burner. Handle with care.
Step 2: Spread the Glass Media
Spread the glass media evenly over the burner surface. Ensure complete coverage for the best visual effect.
Lighting & Operation
Step 1: Connect the Propane Tank
Ensure the propane tank valve is in the OFF position. Attach the propane hose and included regulator to the propane tank.
