Cleaning Glass: The white residue by-product that accumulates on the glass is unique to gas-burning appliances. To remove this white residue effectively and safely, use Rutland White Off® Glass Cleaning Cream.

Cleaning Gas Logs & Soot: Since gas appliances don’t burn wood, there is no creosote buildup. However, the system will still accumulate soot over time. Avoid using granulated/powder-like soot remover, as these are ineffective with gas appliances and can damage the appliance. To properly clean the gas logs, try Rutland Log Bright® Gas Log Soot Remover (Not to be used on white birch or fiber gas logs).

Heat Cures & Gasket Adhesion: It can be very difficult to properly perform a heat cure with a gas appliance. Because of this, avoid using any cement or mortar that requires a heat cure, which includes our gasket cements. Instead of using gasket cement to adhere the gasket, use Rutland High Heat Silicone Sealant, 600°F RTV.

Summary: Gas appliance owners should be using a special glass cleaner, soot remover specifically for gas logs, and cements/mortars. Do not purchase any product that requires a heat cure, or any product that comes in a granular/powder-like form.
