Installation Codes  
The fireplace installation must conform to local codes. Before installing the  
fireplace, consult the local building code agency to ensure that you are in  
compliance with all applicable codes, including permits and inspections.  
In the absence of local codes, the fireplace installation must conform to the  
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 (in the United States) or the CAN/CGA-  
B149 Installation Codes (in Canada). The appliance must be electrically  
grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes with  
the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (in the United States), or to the  
CSA C22.1 Canadian Electric Code (in Canada).  
This model may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting room in the U.S.A. and  
Canada.  
High Altitude Installations  
U.L. Listed gas appliances are tested and approved without requiring changes for  
elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet in the U. S. A. and in Canada.  
When installing this appliance at an elevation above 2,000 feet, it may be necessary  
to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller  
size. Input rate should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 feet above a 2000 foot  
elevation in the U.S.A. or 10% for elevations between 2000 and 4500 feet in Canada.  
If the heating value of the gas has been reduced, these rules do not apply. To  
identify the proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.  
If installing this appliance at an elevation above 4,500 feet (in Canada), check with  
local authorities.

THE AIR KIT WILL COME MOUNTED TO THE FIREPLACE. SEE FIGURE 6.  
NOTE: When installing the AK-CFX outside air kit, it is normally not necessary  
to install the air intake cap on the same wall as the exhaust termination cap.  
However, installations involving tall buildings or areas subjected to frequent high  
winds, it is recommended that the air intake cap be installed on the same wall  
as the exhaust termination cap.

For Vertical Terminations - To locate the vent and  
install the vent sections:  
• Locate and mark the vent centerpoint on the  
underside of the roof, and drive a nail through the  
centerpoint.  
• Make the outline of the roof hole around the  
centerpoint nail.  
• The size of the roof hole framing dimensions  
depend on the pitch of the roof. There MUST BE  
a 1-inch (25.4 mm) clearance from the vertical  
vent pipe to combustible materials.  
• Mark the roof hole accordingly.  
• Cover the opening of the installed vent pipes.  
• Cut and frame the roof hole.  
• Use framing lumber the same size as the roof  
rafters and install the frame securely. Flashing an-  
chored to the frame must withstand heavy winds.  
• Continue to install concentric vent sections up  
through the roof hole (for inside vent installations)  
or up past the roof line until you reach the appro-  
priate distance above the roof (for outside termi-  
nations).

mm) gas supply line. To install the gas supply line:  
• A listed (and Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved)  
1/2 inch (13mm) tee-handle manual shut-off valve and a  
listed flexible gas connector are connected to the 1/2  
inch (13mm) inlet of the control valve. NOTE: If substi-  
tuting for these components, please consult local codes  
for compliance.  
• A 1/8 inch (3 mm) N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for  
test gauge connection, should be provided for in the gas  
supply line leading to the unit’s shut-off valve.  
• Remove the decorative door on the unit by pulling away  
from the unit to release it from the clips on each side.  
• Locate the gas line access hole in the outer casing of the  
fireplace.  
• Insert the gas supply line through the gas line hole, and  
connect it to the shut-off valve.  
• When attaching the pipe, support the control so that the  
lines are not bent or torn.  
After the gas line installation is complete, all connections must  
be tightened and checked for leaks with a commercially-avail-  
able, non-corrosive leak check solution. Be sure to rinse off all  
leak check solution following testing.  
WARNING: DO NOT USE AN OPEN  
FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

Combustible materials may be brought up to the  
specified clearances on the side and the top front edges  
of the fireplace, but MUST NEVER overlap onto the  
front face. The joints between the finished wall and the  
fireplace top and sides can only be sealed with a 300° F.  
(149° C) minimum sealant.  
Install optional marble and brass trim surround kits as  
desired. Marble, brass, brick, tile, or other non-  
combustible materials can be used to cover up the gap  
between the sheet rock and the fireplace. They can  
overlap front face up to arch door front.  
When overlapping on both sides, leave enough space  
so the decorative door is accessible.

Positioning the Logs  
The logs have been packaged separately, refer to the  
installation instructions that accompany the logs.  
Save the log instructions with this manual.  
If sooting occurs, the logs might need to be repositioned  
slightly to avoid excessive flame impingement.

Placing the Ember Material and Lava Rock  
Two separate bags of ember material and one bag  
of lava rock are shipped with this gas fireplace: The  
bag labeled Golden Ember (GE-93) is flame colorant  
material. The bag labeled Glowing Ember (050-721)  
is standard glowing ember material. To place the  
ember material:  
• Remove the trim door by lifting up and away from the  
unit or if you have an ARCH door, pull away from the  
unit to release it from the clips on each side.  
• Remove the glass door from the unit. Refer to  
glass removal in Step 10.  
• Cover the top of the burner with a single layer of  
ember material. NOTE: Do NOT cover burner  
ports with embers. Then sprinkle GE-93 on top of  
the burner.  
• Save the remaining ember materials for use during  
fireplace servicing.  
• Place lava rock on burner tray.  
• Replace the glass door and a front trim door on the  
unit.

Before lighting the fireplace, be sure to do the  
following:  
Step 11  
Before Lighting  
the Fireplace  
• Remove all paperwork from underneath the  
fireplace.  
Review safety warnings and cautions  
• Read the Safety and Warning Information section  
at the beginning of this Installers Guide.  
Double-check for gas leaks  
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for  
possible gas leaks.  
Double-check vent terminations.  
• Before lighting the fireplace, double-check the unit for  
possible obstructions that could be blocking the vent  
terminations.  
Double-check for faulty components  
• Any component that is found to be faulty MUST BE  
replaced with an approved component. Tampering with  
the fireplace components is DANGEROUS and voids  
all warranties.  
A small amount of air will be in the gas supply lines. When  
first lighting the fireplace, it will take a few minutes for the  
lines to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is  
complete, the fireplace will light and will operate normally.  
Subsequent lightings of the fireplace will not require this  
purging of air from the gas supply lines, unless the gas  
valve has been turned to the OFF position, in which  
case the air would have to be purged.  
NOTE: The fireplace should be run 3 to 4 hours on the  
initial start-up. Turn it off and let it cool completely.  
Remove and clean the glass. Replace the glass and run  
the fireplace for an additional 8 hours. This will help to  
cure the products used in the paint and logs.  
During this break-in period it is recommended that some  
windows in the house be opened for air circulation. This will  
help avoid setting off smoke detectors, and help eliminate  
any odors associated with the fireplace’s initial burning.  
You’ve reviewed all safety warnings, you’ve checked the  
fireplace for gas leaks, you know the vent system is  
unobstructed, and you’ve checked for faulty components.  
Now you’re ready to light the fireplace.

Fireplace  
Maintenance  
Although the frequency of your fireplace servicing and  
maintenance will depend on use and the type of  
installation, you should have a qualified service  
technician perform an appliance check-up at the  
beginning of each heating season. See the table below
