CFX Vent Free Fireplace System
20301726
11. Correct installation of the ceramic fiber logs, proper
location of the heater, and annual cleaning are neces-
sary to avoid potential problems with sooting. Sooting,
resulting from improper installation or operation, can
settle on surfaces outside the fireplace. See log place-
ment instructions for proper installation.
12. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Do not
allow fans to blow directly into fireplace. Do not place
a blower inside burn area of firebox. Ceiling fans may
create drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Sooting
and improper burning will occur.
13. CAUTION: Candles, incense, oil lamps, etc. produce
combustion by-products including soot. Vent-free
appliances will not filter or clean soot produced by
these types of products. In addition, the smoke and/or
aromatics (scents) may be reburnt in the vent-free
appliance which can produce odors. It is recommended
to minimize the use of candles, incense, etc. while the
vent-free appliance is in operation.
14. An unvented gas-fired heater uses air (oxygen) from
the room in which it is installed. Provisions for adequate
combustion and ventilation air must be provided. See
installation guidelines.
15. Keep room area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
16. Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone heater.
They are not intended to be a primary heating appli-
ance.
17. Unvented gas heaters emit moisture into the living
area. In most homes of average construction, this
does not pose a problem. In houses of extremely
tight construction, additional mechanical ventilation is
recommended.
IMPORTANT
Read these instructions carefully before installing or trying to operate a vent-free gas heater in this firebox.
