zontal terminations installed less than seven
(7) feet above the finished grade must comply
with the following additional requirements:
• A hard wired carbon monoxide detector with
an alarm and battery back-up must be installed
on the floor level where the gas fireplace is
installed. The carbon monoxide detector must
comply with NFPA 720, be ANSI/UL 2034
listed and be ISA certified.
• A metal or plastic identification plate must be
permanently mounted to the exterior of the
building at a minimum height of eight (8) feet

New York City, NY:
These fireplaces are approved for installation
in New York City in the US state of New York.
The vent system may not service multiple
appliances, and must never be connected to a
flue serving a solid fuel burning appliance. The
vent pipe is tested to be run inside an enclos-
ing wall (such as a chase). There is no require-
ment for inspection openings in the enclosing
wall at any of the joints in the vent pipe.
Preparing the Appliance Vent Collar on

Each of the unit's two vent collars are sealed
with a cover plate and a seal plate and gasket.
The cover, and seal plate and gasket must be
removed from the vent collar being used.

screws securing the vent seal plate and gasket.
Remove and discard the seal plate and gasket.
When the top vent collar is being used, from
inside the firebox, loosen the two screws in the
keyhole slots of the cover plate and remove the
remaining two cover plate securing screws.
Remove and discard the cover plate. Reinstall
and securely tighten all four screws.
When the rear vent collar is being used, from
inside the firebox, remove the two screws
securing the lintel to the rear wall of the fire-
box, then remove the lintel. Remove the four
cover plate securing screws. Remove and
discard the cover plate.
