2 Getting Started

A. Design and Installation Considerations

Heat & Glo direct vent gas appliances are designed to op- erate with all combustion air siphoned from outside of the building and all exhaust gases expelled to the outside. No additional outside air source is required.

The Twilight-II has been carefully engineered to provide a unique fireplace experience. Since it is different than any other product on the market, care must be taken when installing this appliance so that our customer does not experience undesirable performance or conditions.

1.Install the appliance according to this Owner’s Guide paying particular attention to flashing and sealing instructions.

2.In the cold northern climates pay attention to exposures and prevailing wind conditions when locating the appli- ance, the same as you would for locating exterior win- dows and doors.

The Twilight-II has the thermal characteristics of a high quality window system. Temperatures near the appliance will be cooler than what is realized with a fully insulated wall.

Operation of the appliance will eliminate any cool drafts and will provide the room with a comfortable ambiance.

CAUTION

Installation MUST comply with local, regional, state and national codes and regulations.
