PLACEMENT IN A FIREPLACE WITH A RESTRICTIVE BARRIER
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THIS GAS LOG SET
The following are guidelines for placing a gas log set in a fireplace that has a restrictive barrier along the bottom front
opening of the fireplace. Some examples of barriers are glass/screen door frames and sunken/recessed fireplaces.
Barriers such as the bottom of a glass door frame placed in
front of a gas log set can change the air flow characteristics
of the fireplace which in turn can cause the unit to overheat
and malfunction.
Glass door frames
with adjustable
louvers should have
the lovers fully open
while the unit is in
operation.
Height of restrictive barrier
caused by glass door frames,
recessed fireplaces, etc. from the
base or bottom surface of the
unit.
(Refer to Table).
The log set should be
placed against or as near
as possible to the rear wall
of the fireplace/firebox.

NOTE: Non combustible material such as refractory brick may be used to line the floor of the fireplace
in order to raise the height of the gas log set in relation to a restrictive barrier. If the unit is raised, the
minimum height dimension listed in the homeowner’s manual must not be exceeded.
NOTE: If the log set is equipped with a remote receiver, a restrictive barrier may reduce the battery life
by increasing the ambient temperature inside the fireplace. Placement of the receiver outside of the
fireplace will extend the battery life.
