decorative vented gas log, the
damper must be removed or
permanently locked in the fully
open position and the glass
doors must be in the fully open
position.
Note: An appropriate DESA Heating, LLC
hood (see Replacement and Accessory Parts,
page 14) must be installed when using an
unvented gas log set.
Bi-fold glass doors are optional with this rebox.
They come in brushed or polished brass.
To install glass doors, refer to installation
instructions that are included with kit. When
rebox is in operation, doors must be fully open
or fully closed position only or a re hazard may
be created (see Figure 30 or 31).
A rebox equipped with glass doors operates
much differently than a rebox with an open
front. A rebox with glass doors has a limited
amount of air for combustion. Excessive heat
within the rebox can result if too large a re
is built or if combustion air gate is not com-
pletely open.
The following tips should be followed to as-
sure that both the rebox and glass door retain
their beauty and function properly:
• Both the ue damper and glass doors must
be fully opened before starting re. This
will provide sufcient combustion air and
maintain safe temperatures in rebox.
• The glass must be allowed to warm slowly
and evenly. The tempered glass will with-
stand a gradual temperature rise to 550° F,
which is more than a normal re will gen-
erate. Such materials as pitch/wax laden
logs, very dry mill end lumber and large
amounts of paper or cardboard boxes.
Always keep the re well back from the
doors and never allow ames to contact
the glass.
