CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD TO DEATH
When used without fresh air, vent free gas logs may give off carbon monoxide, an odorless, poisonous
gas. Some people such as pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease and persons at high
altitudes are more affected by carbon monoxide than others.
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu: Headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you
have these signs, the heater may not be installed or working properly. Get fresh at once! Have the
heater and chimney serviced before using again.
Before You Begin -- Attention!
A. Do not allow fans to blow directly into the fireplace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns.
B. Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or other accessory not approved for use with this
heater.
C. Any outside air ducts and/or ash dumps in the fireplace shall be permanently closed at time of appli-
ance installation.
D. The appliance should be inspected before use and at least annually by a professional service person.
More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It
is imperative that control compartments, burners and circulating air passageways of the appliance be
kept clean.
E. Your fireplace must include a chain mesh or similar screen. The screen must remain fully closed while
operating your log set. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing this appliance must be
replaced prior to operation.
F. If your fireplace includes glass doors, they must remain fully open to allow for combustion air during
operation, and to prevent overheating of the gas valve.
G. Your log set must be installed in a solid fuel burning fireplace constructed of noncombustible material.
H. If this log set is to be used with propane gas, your propane supply tank must include a high to low gas
pressure regulator, and must be located outside. DO NOT place supply tanks inside any structure.
I. Be sure to apply pipe joint compound to all non-flared, threaded connections involved in this installa-
tion to avoid possible gas leaks. Compounds used in liquid propane applications must be resistant to
the action of that gas.
J. Always test for leaks using a soapy solution. NEVER US AN OPEN FLAME!
K. The manufacture and shipping of your log set involves compounds which may cause detectable yet
harmless odors during initial operation. Provide extra ventilation to the room for the initial 2-3 hour
break in period.
