>>>>>>>Anyone familiar enough with these brass fittings to say if the hole is just a hole, or is it supposed to have some quartz fitting inside the hole? Dometic no. 24 jet. Somewhere I read that the jets have some very small insert of quartz or something, which would make the flame smaller I suppose. I have looked at mine with a microscope and don't see how there could be one, but thought I'd ask just in case.<<<<<<<<
