FEATURES
OPERATION
This heater is clean burning. It requires no
outside venting. There is no heat loss out a
vent or up a chimney. Heat is generated by
realistic, dancing yellow flames. This heater
is designed for vent-free operation with flue
damper closed. It has been tested and ap-
proved to ANSI Z21.11.2 standard for
unvented heaters. State and local codes in
some areas prohibit the use of vent-free
heaters. This heater may also be operated as
a vented decorative (ANSI Z21.60) product
by opening the flue damper (for non-ther-
mostat operation only).
SAFETY PILOT
This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Deple-
tion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system.
The ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent-
free room heaters. The ODS/pilot shuts off
the heater if there is not enough fresh air.

requires no matches, batteries, or other
sources to light heater.

bly from carton.

plied to logs and heater for shipment.

age. If damaged, promptly inform
