Figure 5 - Ventilation Air from Outdoors
ventilation Air From Outdoors
Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation
grills or ducts. You must provide two perma-
nent openings: one within 12" of the ceiling
and one within 12" of the oor. Connect these
items directly to the outdoors or spaces open
to the outdoors. These spaces include attics
and crawl spaces. Follow the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation for required size
of ventilation grills or ducts.
IMPORTANT: Do not provide openings for
inlet or outlet air into attic if attic has a thermo-
stat-controlled power vent. Heated air entering
the attic will activate the power vent.
WARNING: A qualied ser-
vice person must install rebox.
Follow all local codes.
WARNING: Never install
rebox
• in a bedroom or bathroom*
• in a recreational vehicle
• where curtains, furniture,
clothing, or other ammable
objects are less than 36" from
front or 42" from top of re-
box. For side clearances see
Figure 6, page 11
• in high trafc areas
• in windy or drafty areas
* Unless installed log set is rated
at 10,000 Btu/hr or less.
CAUTION: Log heaters
installed in this rebox create
warm air currents. These currents
move heat to wall surfaces next
to rebox. Installing rebox next
to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or
operating rebox where impuri-
ties (such as, but not limited to, to-
bacco smoke, aromatic candles,
cleaning uids, oil or kerosene
lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may
discolor walls or cause odors.
INsTAllATIoN
NOTICE: The rebox identica-
tion label (including model num-
ber, serial number, clearances,
etc.) is located on a chain under
the bottom refractory.
IMPORTANT: Vent-free gas log heaters add
moisture to the air. Although this is benecial,
installing r ebox in rooms without enough
ventilation air may cause mildew to form from
too much moisture. See, page 8.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the rebox is level.
If rebox is not level, log set will not work
properly.
Note: Your rebox is designed to be used in
zero clearance installations. Wall or framing
material can be placed against any exterior
surface on the rear, sides, top or bottom of
your rebox, except where standoff spacers
are integrally attached. If standoff spacers are
attached to your rebox, these spacers can
be placed directly against wall or framing ma-
terials. Use the dimensions shown for rough
opening to create the easiest installation.
Use dimensions shown for rough openings
to create the easiest installation (see Built-In
Firebox Installation, page 12).
