If you feel this odor is excessive it may require theinitial 3-4 hour continuous burn on high followed by a second burnup to 12 hours to fully drive off any odor from paint and lubricantsused in the manufacturing process.During this break-in period it is recommended that some windows inthe house be opened for air circulation. This will help avoid settingoff smoke detectors, and help eliminate any odors associated withthe fireplace’s initial burning.Additionally, for the first few minutes after each lighting,vapor may condense and fog the glass and flames may beblue. After a few minutes this moisture will disappear andwithin 15-30 minutes the flames should become yellow.Noise caused by metal expanding and contracting as itheats up and cools down, similar to the sound producedby a furnace or heating duct.
