INSTALLATION
Continued
CAUTION: This fireplace cre-
ates warm air currents. These cur-
rents move heat to wall surfaces
next to fireplace. Installing fire-
place next to vinyl or cloth wall
coverings or operating fireplace
where impurities (such as to-
bacco smoke, aromatic candles,
cleaning fluids, oil or kerosene
lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may
discolor walls.
IMPORTANT:
Vent-free heaters add mois-
ture to the air. Although this is beneficial,
installing fireplace in rooms without enough
ventilation air may cause mildew to form
from too much moisture. See Air for Com-
bustion and Ventilation, pages 4 through 6.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure the fireplace is
level. If fireplace is not level, log set will not
work properly.
NOTICE: A qualified service per-
son must install fireplace. Follow
all local codes.
WARNING: Never install the
fireplace
• in a bedroom or bathroom
• in a recreational vehicle
• where curtains, furniture,
clothing, or other flammable
objects are less than 42 inches
from the front, top, or sides of
the fireplace
• in high traffic areas
• in windy or drafty areas
Note:
Your Comfort Glow fireplace is de-
signed to be used in zero clearance installa-
tions. Wall or framing material can be placed
directly against any exterior surface on the
rear, sides, or top of your fireplace, except
where stand-off spacers are integrally at-
tached. If stand-off spacers are attached to
your fireplace, these spacers can be placed
directly against wall or framing materials.
Use the dimensions shown for rough open-
ings to create the easiest installation (see
Built-In Fireplace Installation, page 13).

ELECTRICAL HOOKUP
(When Using Optional
Blower)
The optional blower accessories (GA3650T
and GA3750) have a power cord 5 feet in
length. You must locate the fireplace within
reach of a 120 volt grounded electrical out-
let, or install an electrical outlet within reach
of the blower power cord. For built-in in-
stallation, an outlet accessory (GA3555) is
available (see Accessories, page 32). This
allows the outlet to be installed inside the
firebox. All electrical installations should
be performed by a qualified service person.
