GAS INSTALLATION

Unusually tight construction is defined as con- struction where:

a)Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmos- phere have a continuous water vapour retarder with a rating of 1 perm (6 x 10-11kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed, and

b)Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors, and

c)Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole plates and floors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines, and at other openings.

An unvented room heater is recommended for use as a secondary heat source rather than as a primary source. Gas combustion produces water vapour which could oc- cur at the rate of approximately one ounce of water for every 1,000 BTU/hr of gas input. During the cold weather season, indoor humidity levels tend to be low. Conse- quently, this water vapour can enhance the living space. However if a problem should occur:

a)ensure sufficient combustion and circulation air

b)use a dehumidifier

c)do not use the unvented room heater as a primary heat source

Without sufficient fresh air for proper operation, poor fuel combustion can result. Carbon Monoxide is a result of poor combustion.

If additional fresh air is required, use one of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code,

GAS INSTALLATION

1.Move the fireplace into position and secure using the nailing tabs and/or secure to the floor through the ¼"ø holes located at either end of the base.

2.Install rigid black pipe, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or, if local codes permit, a 3/8" flex connector and shutoff valve to the gas line and the fireplace gas valve. Seal and tighten securely. An adapter fitting is required between the gas valve and the copper tubing or flex connector.

DO NOT KINK FLEX CONNECTOR.

3.Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution.

DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.

4.For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a con- venient location. Route a 2 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:

18gauge

40 feet

Attach the two leads to terminals 1 and 3 located on the gas valve.

ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3 or the applicable local code.

Do not connect either the wall switch, thermostat or gas valve to electricity (110 volts).

USING DOOR OPTION:

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