11.0 MOUNTING THE APPLIANCE - continued

Before tightening the wall-mounting screws fully, at this stage it is recommended to check the horizontal alignment of the appliance with a spirit level, as small adjustments can still be made if necessary. When this has been checked, tighten all four fixing screws fully.

To access the upper fixing screws insert a screwdriver either through the round holes in the front of the outlet Grill (as shown in Figure 3), or alternatively for easier access the outlet Grill may be removed and the fixing screws accessed more directly through the holes in the deflector baffle as shown in Figure 4.

12.0 CHECKING THE BURNER

There are no imitation fuel bed components, such as logs or rocks, to install. The appliance features a ribbon burner which is designed to produce a continuous band of flame over its length. The burner should be visually inspected to ensure it is free from any foreign matter. If it is necessary to clean or dust off the burner then the glass door should be removed by removal of the four retaining screws. Re-fit the glass door after cleaning or inspection, ensuring a good seal.

13.0 CONNECTING A GAS LINE

WARNING

Connecting directly to a unregulated propane tank may cause an explosion.

IMPORTANT

Holdheaterregulatorwithawrenchtopreventmovement when connecting to inlet piping.

A qualified gas appliance installer must connect the gas room heater to the gas supply. Consult all local codes. Route gas line using techniques and materials prescribed by local and/or national codes. Only use pipe of 1/2" or greater diameter to allow full gas volume to the gas fireplace. Undue pressure loss will occur if the pipe is too small.

An external regulator must be used on all propane (L.P.G.) heaters, in addition to the regulator fitted to the heater, to reduce the supply tank pressure to 13" w.c. (maximum).

3"SedimentTrapDown

Figure 5

An ANSI approved manual shut-off valve and union must be installed upstream of the heater within the fireplace cavity when rigid pipe is used. Ensure that a sediment trap is installed upstream of the heater (Figure 5) within the structure’s piping system to prevent moisture and contaminants from passing through the pipe to the heater controls and burner. Failure to do so could prevent the heater from operating reliably. The heater gas inlet connection is 3/8” NPT at the regulator, located below the burner, in the center of the heater. When tightening up the joint to the regulator hold the regulator securely with a wrench to prevent the regulator from moving.
