•The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.

•The flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.

•The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent sealed combustion product.

•WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the commonwealth of

Massachusetts.

In absence of local codes, install to the current CAN1-

B149 Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 54 in the United States. Mobile home installation must conform with local codes. In the absence of local codes, install to the current standard for gas equipped mobile housing CAN/CSA Z240 MH Series in Canada or the manufactured home construc- tion and safety standard, Title 24 CFR, part 3280, or the Fire Safety Criteria for manufactured home installations, Sites and Community Standard ANSI/NFPA 501A in the United States.

Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace insert opened. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the door.

Under extreme vent configurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.

The fireplace insert and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The fireplace insert must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

A 1/8 inch NPT plug, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the fireplace insert.

The fireplace insert must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes.
