UNVENTED (VENT-FREE) LOGMATE® FIREBOX

SAFETY

INFORMATION

WARNINGS

IMPORTANT: Read this owner’s manual carefully and completely before trying to assemble, oper- ate, or service this firebox. Im- properuseofthisfireboxcancause serious injury or death from burns, fire, explosion, electrical shock, or carbon monoxide poisoning.

CAUTION: Carefully review the instructions supplied with the decorative type unvented room heater for the minimum firebox size requirement. Do not install the appliance in this firebox un- less this firebox meets the mini- mum dimensions required for the installation.

WARNING: Any change to this firebox or its controls can be dangerous.

1.This firebox shall not be installed in a bedroom or bathroom.

2.Never install the firebox

•in a recreational vehicle

•where curtains, furniture, clothing, or other flammable objects are less than 36 inches from the front, top, or sides of the firebox

•in high traffic areas

•in windy or drafty areas

3.Do not use this firebox as a wood-burn- ing fireplace. Use only decorative unvented room heaters (log sets).

4.Do not add extra logs or ornaments such as pine cones, vermiculite, or rock wool. Using these added items can cause sooting.

5.You must operate this fireplace with the provided fireplace screens, hoods, and brick liners in place. Make sure these parts are in place and screens are closed before running firebox. The supplied hoods may not be replaced with hoods which may be provided with a log heater.

6.Do not allow fans to blow directly into the firebox. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Ceiling fans can create drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Altered burner patterns can cause sooting.

7.Do not use a blower insert, heat ex- changer insert or other accessory not approved for use with this firebox. Use only the provided hoods, or appropri- ate polished brass hood accessories. See Accessories on page 15.

8.Vent-free gas log heaters installed in this firebox require fresh air ventilation to run properly. See Air for Combustion and Ventilation, pages 4 through 6.

9.Do not run firebox

•where flammable liquids or vapors are used or stored

•under dusty conditions

10.Do not use this firebox to cook food or burn paper or other objects.

11.Never place any objects in the firebox or on logs.

12.Firebox fronts and screens becomes very hot when running firebox. Keep children and adults away from hot sur- faces to avoid burns or clothing igni- tion. Firebox will remain hot for a time after shutdown. Allow surfaces to cool before touching.

13.Carefully supervise young children when they are in the room with firebox.

14.Turn firebox off and let cool before servicing. Only a qualified service per- son should service and repair firebox.

15.Operating vent-free logs above eleva- tions of 4,500 feet could cause pilot outage.

16.Do not use the firebox if it has been under water due to the shock hazard that could result with the blower acces- sary (if installed) in place.

LOCAL CODES

UNPACKING

1.Remove all protective packaging from inside firebox. Carefully lift the fire- box off the bottom corrugated tray.

2.Carton should contain 3 deflective hoods and hardware packet in addition to firebox assembly. If items are miss- ing, inform dealer where you bought firebox.

3.Check all items for any shipping dam- age. If damaged, promptly inform dealer where you bought firebox.

FBPS specifications

Desa FBPS, or Flexible Building Production System, is an innovative approach to construction that leverages advanced technologies to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and adaptability in building design and construction. This system is gaining traction in the industry due to its versatility and ability to integrate new methodologies suitable for various construction environments.

One of the main features of Desa FBPS is its modular design. This allows for the construction of buildings using pre-fabricated components, which can be assembled on-site with minimal disruption. This modularity not only speeds up the construction process but also reduces waste, as components are manufactured in a controlled environment where precision and quality can be more easily maintained.

Another significant characteristic of Desa FBPS is its use of smart technologies. The system incorporates IoT (Internet of Things) devices, enabling real-time monitoring of building conditions, energy consumption, and other critical parameters. This data-driven approach facilitates timely decision-making and maintenance, improving the overall longevity and functionality of the buildings.

Sustainability is a core principle of Desa FBPS. The system prioritizes eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient designs, often utilizing renewable energy sources and advanced insulation technologies. This focus on sustainability not only lowers the carbon footprint of construction but also results in long-term savings on energy costs for occupants.

Desa FBPS also emphasizes flexibility in design. Buildings constructed using this system can be easily expanded or modified to adapt to changing needs. This flexibility is particularly advantageous in urban areas where space is at a premium and evolving residential or commercial demands necessitate rapid responses from developers.

Additionally, the integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology plays a crucial role in Desa FBPS. BIM allows for the visualization of a building throughout its lifecycle, facilitating better planning, collaboration among stakeholders, and improved project management.

In summary, Desa FBPS represents a paradigm shift in construction practices, characterized by modular design, smart technology integration, sustainability, and design flexibility. Its forward-thinking approach positions it as a leader in modern construction, addressing the growing demands for efficient and adaptable building solutions in a rapidly evolving world.
