When used without adequate combustion and ventilation
air, heater may give off CARBON MONOXIDE, an odorless,
poisonous gas.
Do not install heater until all necessary provisions are
made for combustion and ventilation air. Consult the
written instructions provided with the heater for
information concerning combustion and ventilation air.
In the absence of instructions, refer to the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3 or applicable local
codes.
This heater is equipped with a PILOT LIGHT SAFETY
SYSTEM designed to turn off the heater if not enough fresh
air is available.
DO NOT TAMPER WITH PILOT LIGHT SAFETY
SYSTEM!
If heater shuts off, do not relight until you provide fresh air.
If heater keeps shutting off, have it serviced. Keep burner
and control compartment clean.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING MAY LEAD TO
DEATH.
Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu,
with headache, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these
signs, heater may not be working properly. Get fresh air at
once! Have heater serviced.
Some people – pregnant women, persons with heart or lung
disease, anemia, those under the influence of alcohol, those
at high altitudes – are more affected by carbon monoxide
than others.
The pilot light safety system senses the depletion of oxygen
at its location. If this heater is installed in a structure having
a high vertical dimension, the possibility exists that the
oxygen supply at the higher levels will be less than that at
the heater. In this type of application, a fan to circulate the
structure air will minimize this effect. The use of this fan
will also improve the comfort level in the structure. When
a fan is used to circulate air, it should be located so that the
air flow is not directed at the burner.
WARNING
• An unvented room heater having an input rating of more
than 6,000 Btu per hour shall not be installed in a
bathroom.
• An unvented room heater having an input rating of more
than 10,000 Btu per hour shall not be installed in a bed-
room or bathroom.
• Never burn solid fuels in a fireplace where a gas log set is
installed.
• Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be located
out of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
• Do not place clothing or other flammable material on or
near the appliance.
• Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of
high surface temperature and should stay away to avoid
burns or clothing ignition.
• Young children should be carefully supervised when they
are in the same room as the appliance.
• This unit complies with ANSI Z21.11.2b-2002 Unvented
Heaters and it also complies with ANSI Z21.60b-2001
Decorative Vented Appliances for Solid Fuel Burning
Fireplaces. State or local codes may only allow operation
of this appliance in a vented configuration. Check your
state or local codes.
• Correct installation of logs, proper location of the heater
and annual cleaning are necessary to avoid potential
problems with sooting. Sooting, resulting from improper
installation or operation, can settle on surfaces outside the
fireplace.
• Avoid any drafts that could alter burner flame patterns.
Do not allow fans to blow directly into the fireplace. Do
not place a blower inside burn box area of firebox. Ceiling
fans may create drafts that alter burner flame patterns.
Sooting and improper burning will occur as a result of
drafts.
• The installation must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition) and to the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA70 (latest edition).

passageways of the appliance be kept clean.
• Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing an
appliance must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.
Provide adequate combustion and ventilation air.
• The flow of combustion and ventilation air MUST NOT be
obstructed.

for these installations. Exception: DO NOT install this
appliance in a factory-built fireplace that includes
instructions stating it has not been tested or should not be
used with unvented gas logs.
• An unvented room heater intended for installation in a
solid-fuel burning fireplace shall comply with the following
instructions.
• A fireplace screen must be in place when the appliance is
operating and, unless other provisions for combustion air
are provided, the screen shall have an opening(s) for
introduction of combustion air.
• Solid-fuels shall not be burned in a masonry or UL 127
factory-built fireplace in which an unvented room heater
is installed.
• Any glass doors shall be opened when the appliance is in
operation.
• Any outside air ducts and/or ash dumps in the fireplace
