SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING
Spiders or other insects may build webs or nests in your fire column burner tube which can obstruct or
block the flow of gas.
Some of the gas may back up in the burn tube and cause a flashback (a fire in the burn tube or
underneath the fire column) which could result in personal injury or property damage. Check and clean
the burn tube periodically using a pipe cleaner brush (as shown below) available at any hardware store.
