GAS CONNECTION
Check gas type. Use only the type of gas indicated on the valve rating plate. If the type of
gas listed on the plate is not your type of gas supply, DO NOT INSTALL. Contact your
dealer for proper model.
Always use an external regulator for all LP heaters to reduce the supply tank pressure to a
maximum of 13” W.C. This is in addition to the regulator furnished with the heater.
The normal gas connection is 3/8” N.P.T. made at the right side facing the log set. If a
left side connection is desired, the connecting pipe may be routed under the rear of the
burner base to terminate at the right hand side for connection to the inlet of the valve.
NOTE: The connecting pipe must be internally tinned copper tubing for use with natural
gas. Test for leaks using a solution of soap and water after completing the connection.
DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.
NOTE: “If the factory-built fireplace has no gas access hole(s) provided, an access hole of
1.5 inch (37.5mm) diameter or less may be drilled through the lower sides or bottom of the
firebox in a proper workmanlike manner. This access hole must be plugged with non-
combustible insulation after gas supply line has been installed.”

PRODUCING ADEQUATE
VENTILATION
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 defines a confined space as a space
whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8m 3 per kw) of the
aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as a
space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8m 3 per kw) of
the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating
directly with the space in which the appliances are installed, through openings not furnished
with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:
a) Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor
retarder with a rating of 1 perm (6 x 10-11 kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed
or sealed;
b) Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors;
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.

NOTICE
DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR
HEATER LOCATION
DETERMINE IF YOU HAVE A CONFINED OR UNCONFINED SPACE.
Use this worksheet to determine if you have confined or unconfined space.
SPACE: Includes the room in which you install the heater plus adjoining rooms with
doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.
1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).
Length x Width x Height = __________cu. ft. (volume of space)
EXAMPLE: 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling Height) =
2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)
If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the
volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space.
2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum BTU/Hr the
space can support.
__________(volume of space) / 50 cu. Ft.= maximum BTU/Hr the space
can support)
EXAMPLE: 2560 cu. Ft. (volume of space /50 cu. Ft.=51.2 or
51200 (maximum BTU/Hr the space can support)
3. Add the BTU/Hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space.

4. Compare the maximum BTU/Hr the space can support with the actual amount of
BTU/Hr used.
____________BTU/Hr (maximum the space can support)
____________BTU/Hr ( actual amount of BTU/Hr used)
EXAMPLE: 51200BTU/Hr (maximum the space can support)
58000BTU/Hr (actual amount of BTU/Hr used)
The space in the above example is a confined space because the actual BTU/Hr used is more
than the maximum BTU/Hr the space can support. You must provide additional fresh air .
Your options are as follows:
A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides an
unconfined space, remove door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills between rooms .
See “Ventilation Air From Inside Building”, page 21.
B. Vent room directly to the outdoors . See “Ventilation Air Outdoors”, page 22.
C. Install a lower BTU/Hr heater , if lower BTU/Hr size makes room unconfined.
If the actual BTU/Hr used is less than the maximum BTU/Hr the space can support, the
space is an unconfined space. You will need no additional fresh air ventilation.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Although your gas logs are very realistic in appearance, it is not a real burning fireplace and
must not be used for burning solid fuel.
To avoid irreparable damage to the heater or personal injury, matches, paper, garbage, or any
other material must not be placed or thrown on top of the logs or into the flames.
To avoid personal injury, do not touch hot surfaces when the heater is operating. Close
supervision is necessary when the heater is being operated near children.
CLEANING
All cleaning should be carried out when the heater is cold. Only limited cleaning will be required
under normal use. Dusting the front of the base, the top of the piezo cover, or the control knob
panel may be required occasionally. Do not use any cleaning fluids to clean the logs or any
other part of the heater.
If the flames show any unusual shapes or behavior, or if the burners fail to ignite properly,
then the burner holes may require cleaning. If this occurs, it is preferable to contact your nearest
dealer to get your heater serviced.
Alternatively, the heater can be cleaned by removing the top, front, and rear logs. Handle the
logs gently so as not to damage them. Always lift each log by holding it carefully at each end.
Use a vacuum cleaner to carefully remove dust and loose particles from the base, logs, and from
around the burners.
