GAS INSTALLATION
1.Route a 3/8" N.P.T. black iron gas line, 1/2"
2.For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a conven- ient location. Route double strand solid core millivolt wire through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of the unit. The recommended maximum lead length de- pends on wire size:
WIRE SIZE | MAX. LENGTH | |
14 | gauge | 100 feet |
16 | gauge | 60 feet |
18 | gauge | 40 feet |
3.Attach the two leads to terminals 1 and 3 located on the gas valve.
Do not connect either the wall switch, thermostat or gas valve to electricity (110 volts).

BRICK PANEL INSTALLATION | FIGURE 31 |
|
|
1.Remove the two brick retainers located on either of the firebox sides as illustrated.
2.Remove the protective plastic wrap from all four pan- els. Centre the rear brick panel against the back of the firebox.
3.Tilt and insert the left brick panel against the left side of the firebox, ensuring that it butts up to the rear panel. Excess material may be trimmed with a utility knife. Secure in place using a retainer bracket and 2 of the screws. Re- peat for the right side.
4.Slide the upper brick baffle into place over the side brick panels.
When shipped, the brick panels range in colour from white to varying shades of brown. During initial use, the panels will darken temporarily and emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal condition that will not occur again. Simply open a window to suffi- ciently ventilate the room. The appearance of the pan- els will permanently lighten in colour with use.
