General Information

In order to assure a safe and effective instal- lation, only a qualiﬁed service person who is familiar with the building codes and installation techniques appropriate to your area may install and service this appliance.

The Logsets have been designed and tested to oper- ate safely when installed according to the installation instructions contained in this manual. Read all instruc- tions before starting the installation.

•For outdoor use only.

•The logset should be inspected before use and at least annually thereafter. More frequent cleaning may be necessary because of excessive lint from carpeting or bedding material.

•In the United States, the installation and operation must conform to local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54, latest edition, CSA B149.1 Installation Code, and with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA70 (latest edition).

•The gas logset and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 p.s.i.g. (3.5 kPa) The gas logset 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 pres- sures equal to or less than 1/2 p.s.i.g. (3.5 kPa)

•Do not, under any circumstances, burn solid fuel (wood, paper, coal) in the ﬁreplace where you have installed your logset. Do not use it for cooking. Put nothing on top of the logs.

•The logset must be compatible with its fuel. Natural gas requires different hardware than propane. Never attempt to use natural gas with a propane logset or vice versa.

•For a propane burning logset, the supply tank must include a high to low gas pressure regulator. The tank must be outdoors. Do not, under any circumstances, locate supply tanks inside any structure.

•The ﬁreplace must include a screen made of chain mesh or a similar material. You must keep the screen closed at all times during the operation of the logset; it will protect you in the event of an explosion.

•WARNING: If the ﬁreplace contains glass doors, they must remain open at all times during the opera- tion of the logset, allowing combustion air to circulate.

•In order to avoid any possible gas leaks, apply pipe joint compound to all non-ﬂared threaded connections involved in this installation. For propane, the joint compound must be resistant to the corrosive action of propane.

•To check for leaks, always use a soapy water solu- tion or a sniffer. Never test by using an open ﬂame.

•The area around the gas logset must be free of all combustible materials, especially gasoline or other highly ﬂammable, vapor producing liquids.

•Due to high temperatures, locate this logset away from both high trafﬁc areas and furniture and draper- ies.

•Children and adults alike should be aware of the high surface temperatures; to avoid the risk of burns or ignition of clothing they should stay away.

•Do not touch any part of the logset other than the controls while it is operating or immediately after you turn it off.

•Supervise young children and pets carefully when they are in the area where the logset is operating.

•Do not place clothing or other ﬂammable material on or near the logset.

•Make sure that any safety screen or guard, removed during servicing, has been replaced before you use the logset.

•It is imperative that you keep clear all burner areas, control compartments and passageways for circulat- ing air.

•Do not move the logset in any way that might dis- lodge the logs from their ﬁxed positions. If you bump the logset check to see if you have dislodged any- thing.

•Provide adequate clearances around air openings into the combustion chamber and adequate acces- sibility clearance for servicing and proper operation. NEVER obstruct the front opening of the ﬁreplace.
