Pressure Testing Heater Gas Connections

1.Open equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 19).

2.Open main gas valve located on or near gas meter for natural gas or open propane/LP supply tank valve.

3.Make sure control knob of heater is in the OFF position.

4.Check all joints from equipment shutoff valve to thermostat gas valve (Thermostat-Controlled Models), to control valve (Manually-Controlled Models), or to gas control (Remote- Ready Models)(see Figures 20 and 21). Apply noncorrosive leak detection fluid to all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.

5.Correct all leaks at once.

6.Light heater (see Operating Heater, pages 17 through 22, de- pending on your model). Check all other internal joints for leaks.

7.Turn off heater (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 18 for Thermostat-Controlled models, page 19 for Manually-Controlled Models, or page 21 for Remote-Ready Models).

CAUTION: After installation and periodically there- after, check to ensure that no flame comes in contact with any log. With the heater set to High, check to see if flames contact any log. If so, reposition logs ac- cording to the log installation instructions in this manual. Flames contacting logs will create soot.

It is very important to install the logs exactly as instructed. Do not modify logs. Only use logs supplied with heater.

1.Place one-piece log set on grate to fit as illustrated in Figure 22 on page 16 for Vintage Oak models and Figure 23 on page 16 for Golden Oak or Birch models. For Vintage Oak models make sure bottom of front log is in front of “U”-shaped cutout in center of chassis (see Figure 22, page 16). For Golden Oak or Birch models make sure middle section at bottom of log set is seated into “U”-shaped cutout in center of chassis (see Figure 23, page 16). Note: 36" and birch models have more features but fit on the chassis the same. Log will fit securely on chassis. IMPORTANT: Make sure log does not cover any burner ports (see Figures 24 or 25, page 16).

2.Place lava rock around base of heater if desired.
