7 Electrical Information

A. Recommendation for Wire

See B5 below for recommended maximum lead length (two wire) when using wall thermostat/switch.

NOTE: This appliance must be electrically wired and grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition or the Canadian Electric Code, CSA

C221.1.

B. Connecting to the Appliance

WARNING

Wire 110v to electrical junction box.

Do NOT wire 110v to the valve.

Do NOT wire 110V to wall switch.

Incorrect wiring will damage millivolt systems.

Do not connect this appliance to a thermostat serving any other appliance.

Bedroom installation in Canada requires this appliance to be connected to a thermostat.

WARNING

Shock hazard.

This appliance is equipped with a three pronged (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three prong receptacle.

Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

1.This appliance may be used with a wall switch, wall mounted thermostat and / or a remote control.

2.If using thermostat, use one compatible with a millivolt gas valve system.

3.Follow parameters for locating thermostat (see individ- ual thermostat instructions) to ensure proper operation of appliance.

4.Use low resistance thermostat wire for wiring from igni- tion system to the wall switch and thermostat.

5.Use the following chart for wire sizing.

Wire Size

Max. Length

16 gauge

65 feet

18 gauge

40 feet

20 gauge

25 feet

22 gauge

18 feet

6.Keep wire lengths as short as possible by removing any excess wire length.

7.Low voltage and 110 VAC voltage cannot be shared within the same wall box.

8.Ensure the thermostat is mounted level for accurate readings.

9.The thermostat should be mounted on an inside wall and not in direct line with the appliance convection air.

10.If the thermostat is located too close to the appliance, you may need to set the temperature setting slightly higher to maintain the desired temperature in your home.

SAPPHIRE-D-CSB, SAPPHIRE-D-PMH, SAPPHIRE-MBK, SAPPHIRE-D-MBK specifications

The Quadra-Fire Sapphire series of fireplaces, which includes the Sapphire-D-PMH, Sapphire-D-CSB, Sapphire-D-MBK, and Sapphire-MBK models, epitomizes modern heating technology combined with elegant design. These units are meticulously engineered to enhance both efficiency and aesthetics, making them perfect additions to contemporary living spaces.

One of the standout features of the Sapphire series is its advanced combustion technology. The fireplaces utilize a patented Clean Burn technology. This innovation ensures that the combustion process is as efficient as possible, resulting in reduced emissions and maximizing heat output. With lower particulate emissions, these models not only provide warmth but do so in an environmentally conscious manner.

In terms of performance, the Sapphire fireplaces are designed to deliver consistent and radiant heat. With their powerful heating capabilities, they can warm up large areas, making them suitable for homes of various sizes. The efficient design helps to distribute heat evenly throughout a room, eliminating cold spots and ensuring comfort in all corners of your living space.

The design aesthetics of the Sapphire series is equally impressive. The models feature a sleek, modern design complemented by a large viewing area, allowing for an unobstructed view of the mesmerizing flames. The glass is designed to remain clean for longer periods, thanks to the sophisticated airflow management system that directs air over the glass surfaces, reducing soot buildup.

Customization options are another notable characteristic of the Sapphire series. Homeowners can choose from various finishes and styles to match their home’s decor. The units are available in both traditional and contemporary designs, allowing for versatility in different architectural settings.

The Sapphire-D-PMH model is equipped with a programmable thermostat for added convenience and efficiency. This technology allows users to set the desired temperature, ensuring that their space remains comfortable without unnecessary manual adjustments.

On the other hand, the Sapphire-D-CSB model features an innovative fuel management system that optimally uses wood fuel for extended burn times. This means less frequent refueling and more time spent enjoying the warmth and ambiance the fireplace provides.

The Sapphire-D-MBK and Sapphire-MBK models are designed with durability and longevity in mind. Each unit is constructed from high-quality materials that are built to withstand extreme temperatures while maintaining structural integrity over time.

In summary, the Quadra-Fire Sapphire series combines advanced technology, unique design, and high efficiency. With features like Clean Burn technology, customizable options, and smart fuel management systems, the Sapphire fireplaces offer not just heat, but a stylish centerpiece for modern homes.
