in these instructions may be used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. Any modifications to this kit, or use of unauthorized components or ac- cessory items will void the manufacturer’s warranty, and may result in a hazardous condition.

FLUE OPENING

SPECIFICATIONS

Note: This vented appliance must be in- stalled only in a solid-fuel burning fireplace with a working flue and constructed of non- combustible material.

The charts in Figure 4 indicate technical information regarding the installation of your gas log set. Please make sure that all of the specifications shown are applicable be- fore installation is attempted.

The fireplace must include a working flue and venting system with the minimum open- ings shown in the Figure 4.

CHECK GAS TYPE

Use only natural gas. If your gas supply is not natural gas, you must install ON/OFF Safety Valve/Pilot Kit (see Accessories, page 19). Call dealer where you bought log set.

If the fireplace does not have a gas supply shut-off valve, one must be installed.

VENTING SPECIFICATIONS FOR INSTALLATION

The fireplace chimney flue and vent must be drafting properly. To check the vent for proper drafting: Light a tightly rolled news- paper on one end and place it at the inside front edge of the fireplace. Observe the smoke and be sure the vent is properly drawing it up the chimney. If the smoke spills out into the room, extinguish the flame and remove any obstruction until proper venting is achieved.

The chimney flue must remain open a mini- mum of 3" at all times during the operation of this log set.

FVMR24, FVMR18 specifications

Desa FVMR18 and FVMR24 are innovative models that stand out in the world of HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems. Designed for modern living and commercial environments, these units combine efficiency, performance, and advanced technology to meet diverse climate control needs.

The FVMR18 is designed for residential spaces, featuring a compact and sleek design that easily fits into various interior layouts. Its primary strength lies in its energy efficiency, boasting an impressive SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating. This not only reduces overall power consumption but also minimizes utility bills, aligning with eco-friendly initiatives. The FVMR24, on the other hand, caters to larger areas, including commercial buildings, offering enhanced cooling and heating capabilities.

Both models utilize inverter technology, which allows them to adjust the compressor speed based on the ambient temperature. This means the units can operate more quietly and sustainably, delivering just the right amount of heating or cooling without the drastic fluctuations typical of conventional systems. The inverter technology also contributes significantly to the longevity of the unit, preventing wear and tear associated with frequent restarts.

A standout feature of both the FVMR18 and FVMR24 units is their advanced air filtration system. Equipped with HEPA filters, these models not only provide optimal temperature control but also ensure a clean and healthy indoor environment by capturing dust, allergens, and other airborne particles. This is particularly beneficial for those with respiratory issues or allergies.

Another key characteristic is the user-friendly interface, which includes a smart remote control and compatibility with smart home systems. This allows users to easily adjust temperatures, set timers, and monitor energy consumption through mobile applications. Additionally, both units are designed with quiet operation technology, ensuring minimal noise disruption, which is crucial in residential and office settings.

In summary, Desa FVMR18 and FVMR24 models represent a blend of cutting-edge technology and user-centric features. With their efficient performance, advanced filtration, and smart capabilities, they effectively address the diverse demands of contemporary climate control, making them a valuable investment for both home and business environments.
