GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform with local codes. Installation practices vary from region to region and it is important to know the specifics that apply to your area.

The installation must conform with Local codes or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/INFPA 54 in the United States or CSA B149.1, Natural and Propane Installation code in Canada.

The fireplace 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 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).

When the fireplace is installed directly on combustible material other than wood flooring, the fireplace shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth.

GENERAL INFORMATION

FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUAL- ITY! Maximum input is 40,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and propane. When the fireplace is installed at elevations above 2,000ft, and in the absence of specific recommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft.

It is highly recommended to protect the logs from moisture (rain, snow). Cover the firebox when not in use.

This fireplace is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This fireplace is not convertible for use with other gases, unless a certified kit is used.

Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water column for natural gas and 11 inches water column for propane. Maximum inlet gas pressure is 7 inches water column for natural gas and 13 inches water column for propane. Manifold pressure under flow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water column for propane.

No external electricity (110 volts or 24 volts) is required for the gas system operation.

Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and are to be expected.
