INTRODUCTION

Models GL36ST/P and GL36STE/EP are decora- tive gas appliances that use a millivolt gas control and piezo pilot or an electronic gas control valve with an electronic ignition system respectively. These systems require a 6", B-type venting system for operation.

The 6" B-type vent is not supplied by DESA. For installation guidelines, check your B-vent instructions.

WARNING: This gas appli- ance must not be connected to a chimney flue servicing a solid fuel burning appliance.

Models GL36ST and GL36STE are smooth face units for natural gas only. The GL36STP and GL36STEP are smooth face units for propane/LP gas only. To determine which type of gas your unit is approved and tested for, check the rating plate on the lift-out plate located inside the firebox under the access panel.
