Before You Begin

INTRODUCTION

Models M36E(B,H), VM36E(B,H), M42E(B,H) and VM42E(B,H) are vented gas fireplaces that use an electronic gas control valve and electronic ignition system. A 6" B-Type venting system and a listed type vent cap are not supplied but are required for proper operation. See venting instructions on pages 9 and 10.

WARNING: This gas appliance must not be con- nected to a chimney flue servicing a solid fuel burn- ing appliance.

Models M36E(B,H), VM36E(B,H), M42E(B,H) and VM42E(B,H) are factory equipped for use with natural gas and must be converted when intended for use with propane/LP gas. A respective model PCBE-36 or PCBE-42 conversion kit may be purchased for simple conversion to propane/LP gas. See Accessories, page 27.

The appliance and it’s 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 appliance 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).

For the purpose of input adjustment two pressure taps (for IN and OUT pressures) are provided on the gas control valve for test gauge connections to the appliance.
