Chateau™ Decorative Gas Appliance
Always check for gas leaks with a mild soap and water solution applied with a brush no larger than 1” (25mm). Never ap- ply soap and water solution with a spray bottle. Do not use an open flame for leak testing.
The fireplace valve must not be subjected to any test pressures exceeding 1/2 psi. Isolate or disconnect this or any other gas appliance control from the gas line when pressure testing.
The gas control is equipped with a captured screw type pressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to pro- vide a 1/8” test point up stream of the control.
When using copper, use only approved fittings. Always provide a union when using black iron pipe so the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner servicing. A union may not be behind a wall. (Fig. 8) See the gas specifications for pressure details and ratings.
Remote ON/OFF Switch
Do not wire the remote ON/OFF wall switch for this gas appliance into a 120V power supply.
The unit is equipped with an ON/OFF rocker switch at the valve box assembly. If a wall switch is desired, fol- low these instructions.
1.The valve box is equipped with two knockouts at the top right and left corners. The right knockout is designed to run the wall switch wires to the valve. Use Romex connectors when running wires through the valve box where the knockouts are located.
2.Attach the wire to the ON/OFF switch and install the switch into the receptacle box.
3.Connect the other end of the wire to the gas control valve. (Fig. 9)

Electrical Junction Box (E Units Only)
The fireplace, when installed, must be elec- trically connected and grounded in accord- ance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code or the national electrical code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 in the USA.
It is strongly suggested that the wiring of the Electrical Junction Box be carried out by a licensed electrician. The box should be near the valve box assembly to plug the cord into.
Ensure the power to the supply line has been disconnected before commencing this procedure.
Electronic Gas Control Valve
This appliance may be fitted with a Honeywell ignition module. The unit is shipped from the manufacturer with an ON/OFF switch. The ON/OFF switch is located in the valve box assembly. If desired a wall switch may be used.
Installation of the remote ON/OFF switch on electronic ignition units:
1.The valve box is equipped with two knockouts at the top right and left corners. The right knockout is de- signed to run the wall switch wires to the valve. The left knockout is designed for wiring the electronic unit (E model) to 120v with proper grounding. Use Romex connectors when running wires through the valve box where the knockouts are located.
2.Attach the wire to the ON/OFF switch and install the switch into the receptacle box. (Fig. 10)
3.Connect the White wire from the wall switch to the Black wire from the transformer, using an approved wire nut or terminal. Connect the Black wire from the wall switch to the Black wire running from the #6 po- sition of the ignition module, also using an approved wire nut or terminal.
