Carefully follow the instructions below. This will ensure safe installation into a masonry, UL127-listed manufactured fireplace, or listed vent-free firebox.

CAUTION: This heater creates warm air currents. These currents move heat to wall surfaces next to heater. Installing heater next to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or operating heater where impurities (such as, but not limited to, tobacco smoke, aromatic candles, cleaning fluids, oil or kerosene lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may discolor walls or cause odors.

IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add moisture to the air. Although this is beneficial, installing heater in rooms without enough venti- lation air may cause mildew to form from too much moisture. See Air for Combustion and Ventilation, pages 4 through 6.

CHECK GAS TYPE

Use only the correct type of gas (natural or propane/LP). If your gas supply is not the correct gas type, do not install heater. Call dealer where you bought heater for proper type heater.

INSTALLATION AND CLEARANCES

Figure 4 - Minimum Clearance for Combustible to Wall

NOTICE: Manual control heaters may be used as a vented product. If so, you must always run heater with chimney flue damper open.
