with this heater may result in
If any of the original wire as supplied with the
appliance must be replaced, it must be replaced
with 105˚C wire or it's equivalent.
After nal installation of your replace, light your
gas appliance with the blower off. After about 15
minutes, turn the blower on to deliver heated air
at the top louvers. The blower features a variable
control which allows you to select the speed you
desire. In the OFF position, the blower will not
operate. In the ON position, the blower will start
when the thermostat senses a sufcient increase
in rebox temperature (approximately 10 to 20
minutes depending on heat setting).
Your gas logs and thermostat blower will not turn
on and off at the same time. The replace may run
for several minutes before the blower turns on.
After the heater modulates to the pilot position, the
blower will continue to run. The blower will shut
off after the rebox temperature decreases.
It is safe to operate replace with blower turned
off. However, the blower helps distribute heated
air from the replace.
Note: Periodically check the louvers of the rebox
and remove any dust, dirt or other obstructions.
INSTALLATION

Installation Items Needed
Before installing replace, make sure you have
the items listed below.
• external regulator (supplied by installer, for
propane/LP units only)
• piping (check local codes)
• sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)
• equipment shutoff valve *
• test gauge connection *
• sediment trap
• tee joint
• pipe wrench
• approved exible gas line with gas connector
(if allowed by local codes) (not provided)
* A CSA design-certied equipment shutoff valve
with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to
test gauge connection. Purchase the optional CSA
design-certied equipment shutoff valve from your
dealer. See Accessories, page 40.
For propane/LP units, the installer must supply
an external regulator. The external regulator will
reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce
incoming gas pressure to between 11" and 14" of
water. If you do not reduce incoming gas pres-
sure, heater regulator damage could occur. Install
external regulator with the vent pointing down as
shown in Figure 24, page 18. Pointing the vent
down protects it from freezing rain or sleet.
