FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN
TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUALITY!
Maximum input is 50,000 BTU/hr for both natural gas and
propane. When the fi replace is installed at elevations above
4,500ft, and in the absence of specifi c recommendations
from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certifi ed high
altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for
each additional 1,000ft. Maximum output for natural gas is
33,540 BTU/hr at an effi ciency of 63%; and 34,000 BTU/hr
for propane at an effi ciency of 61%. Minimum inlet gas supply
pressure is 4.5 inches water column for natural gas and 11
inches water column for propane. Maximum inlet gas pres-
sure is 7 inches water column for natural gas and 13 inches
water column for propane. Manifold pressure under fl ow
conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and 10
inches water column for propane.
This fi replace is approved for bathroom, bedroom and bed-
sitting room installations and is certifi ed for mobile home
installation. The natural gas model can only be installed in
a mobile home that is permanently positioned on its site and
fueled with natural gas.
This fireplace is only for use with the type of gas indicated
on the rating plate. This fireplace is not convertible for use
with other gases, unless a certified kit is used.
No external electricity (110 volts or 24 volts) is required for
the gas system operation.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling
down cycles are normal and are to be expected. Change in
ame appearance from “HI” to “LO” is more evident in natural
gas than in propane.
FIGURE 1
THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SER-
VICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform with local
codes. Installation practices vary from region to region and it
is important to know the specifi cs that apply to your area,
for example: in Massachusetts State:
The fi replace damper must be removed or welded in the
open position prior to installation of a fi replace insert or
gas log.
The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• The flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
• A Carbon Monoxide detector is required in all rooms containing
gas fi red appliances.
The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or
bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent sealed combustion
product.
WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed
plumber or gas fi tter when installed within the
commonwealth of Massachusetts.
In absence of local codes, install to the current CAN/CGA
-B149 Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 54 in the United States.
Suitable for mobile home installation if installed in accordance
with the current standard CAN/CSA Z240MH Series, for gas
equipped mobile homes, in Canada or ANSI Z223.1 and NFPA
54 in the United States.
The fi replace and its individual shutoff valve must be discon-
nected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
(3.5 kPa). The fi replace must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system
at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
When the fi replace is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile
or other combustible material other than wood fl ooring, the
fi replace shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extend-
ing the full width and depth.
The optional heat circulating blower is supplied with a cord. If
installed, the junction box must be electrically connected and
grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of
local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 CANADIAN ELEC-
TRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace open.
Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before
closing the door.
Under extreme vent configurations, allow several minutes
(5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
