INSTALLATION
Continued
Note:
Your fireplace is designed to be used in zero clearance
installations. Wall or framing material can be placed directly against
any exterior surface on the rear, sides, or top of your fireplace,
except where standoff spacers are integrally attached. If standoff
spacers are attached to your fireplace, these spacers can be placed
directly against wall or framing materials.
Use the dimensions shown for rough openings to create the easiest
installation (see Built-In Fireplace Installation, page 10).
CAUTION: This fireplace creates warm air cur-
rents. These currents move heat to wall surfaces next
to fireplace. Installing fireplace next to vinyl or cloth
wall coverings or operating heater where impurities
(such as, but not limited to, tobacco smoke, aromatic
candles, cleaning fluids, oil or kerosene lamps, etc.)
in the air exist, may discolor walls or cause odors.
WARNING: A qualified service person must in-
stall fireplace. Follow all local codes.
WARNING: Never install the fireplace
• in a bedroom or bathroom
• in a recreational vehicle
• where curtains, furniture, clothing, or other flam-
mable objects are less than 42 inches from the
front, top, or sides of the fireplace
• in high traffic areas
• in windy or drafty areas
WARNING: Models VSGF28PTC
have a three-prong,
grounded electrical plug. This plug helps protect you
against electrical shock. Only connect plug to a
properly grounded, three-prong receptacle. Do not
cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
NOTICE: This heater is intended for use as supple-
mental heat. Use this heater along with your primary
heating system. Do not install this heater as your
primary heat source. If you have a central heating
system, you may run system’s circulating blower
while using heater. This will help circulate the heat
throughout the house. In the event of a power outage,
you can use this heater as your primary heat source.

IMPORTANT:
Vent-free heaters add moisture to the air. Although
this is beneficial, installing fireplace in rooms without enough
ventilation air may cause mildew to form from too much moisture.
