GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SER- VICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform with local codes. Installation practices vary from region to region and it is important to know the specifi cs that apply to your area, for example: in Massachusetts State:

•The fi replace damper must be removed or welded in the open position prior to installation of a fi replace insert or gas log.

•The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.

•The fl exible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.

•The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent sealed combustion product.

•A carbon monoxide detector is required in all rooms containing gas fi red appliances.

•WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fi tter when installed within the commonwealth of Massachusetts.

In absence of local codes, install to the current CAN/CGA -B149 Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 54 in the United States. Suitable for mobile home installation if installed in accordance with the current standard CAN/CSA Z240MH Series, for gas equipped mobile homes, in Canada or ANSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54 in the United States.

The fi replace and its individual shutoff valve must be discon- nected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The fi replace must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

When the fi replace is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood fl ooring, the fireplace shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth.

The optional heat circulating blower is supplied with a cord. If installed, the junction box must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 CANADIAN ELEC- TRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States.

Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the door.

Under extreme vent configurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.

Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air.

Provide adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and operating the fireplace. Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.

Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of 48” from the front face of the unit.

Minimum clearance to combustible construction from fireplace and vent surfaces:

*The first 2 feet of outer 7 inch diameter vent pipe from the appliance must be wrapped in the 1” thick insulation sleeve (supplied). There must be a 1” air gap in addition to the insulation. Thereafter a 1” clearance all around the vent pipe is acceptable.

GENERAL INFORMATION

FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUALITY! Maximum input is 26,000 BTU/hr for both natural gas and propane. When the fi replace is installed at elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absence of specifi c recommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certifi ed high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft. Maximum output for natural gas is 16150 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 62%; and 16150 BTU/hr for propane at an effi ciency of 62%. Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is

4.5inches water column for natural gas and 11 inches water column for propane. Maximum inlet gas pressure is 7 inches water column for natural gas and 13 inches water column for propane. Manifold pressure under flow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water column for propane.
