INSTALLING VENTED APPLICATION

WARNING

The fireplace and gas logs function as a system. If the fireplace is spilling into the room (check with a match or a smoke stick), reposition the damper clamp until a positive draft is obtained by opening the damper. If negative pressure in home prevents having a positive draft, contact your dealer for assistance.

PLACING AND SECURING APPLIANCE

WARNING

You must secure the gas log heater to the fireplace floor. If not, the entire unit may move when you adjust the controls. Movement of unit may cause shifting of the gas logs which leads to sooting and improper burning.

Special care is required if you are installing the unit into a sunken fireplace. You must raise the fireplace floor to allow access to gas log controls. This will insure adequate air flow and guard against sooting. Raise the fireplace floor using noncombustible materials, as described in Placement in a Fireplace with Restrictive Barrier on page 10.

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE:

1.Center the gas log unit in the fireplace or firebox.

2.Installing Grate: Insert longest middle grate bar in one of the two square holes in control panel. See Figure 12. Be sure grate is centered. Sit horizontal bar inside two hooks on front of control panel. See Figure 12. Make certain front feet of grate are located inside front edge of fireplace or firebox.

3.Anchor holes are located on the flange of the unit. See Figure 12. After centering the burner correctly, mark the hole positions on the fireplace/firebox floor. Drill two (2) 5/32" diameter holes approximately 11/2" deep.

4.Anchor the unit to the fireplace/firebox floor using the screws provided. See Figure 12.
