CHECK GAS TYPE

Use only natural gas. If your gas supply is not natural gas, you must convert the appliance to propane/LP. Follow the instructions on pages 6 and 7.

If the fireplace does not have a gas supply shut-off valve, one must be installed.

VENTING SPECIFICATIONS FOR

INSTALLATION

The fireplace chimney flue and vent must be drafting properly. To check the vent for proper drafting: Light a tightly rolled newspaper on one end and place it at the inside front edge of the fireplace. Observe the smoke and be sure the vent is properly drawing it up the chimney. If the smoke spills out into the room, extinguish the flame and remove any obstruction until proper venting is achieved.

The chimney flue damper must be fixed open to provide a minimum of 81 sq. in. of free air opening during operation of this log set. A multipurpose damper clamp is provided to fix the damper in position.

The minimum flue sizes shown in Figure 2 are based on a 6' chimney height using round pipe. Your minimum flue size will vary based on input rate and chimney height. Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 6.6, for details.

Damper Clamp

Damper

Damper

Installation must include an equipment shutoff valve with "T" style handle, gas union and, for propane/LP gas only, a plugged 1/8" NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstream from log set (see Figure 4).

IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoff valve in an accessible location. The equipment shutoff valve is for turning on or shutting off the gas to the appliance.

Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in a clogged burner injector.

WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.

CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY

WARNING: A qualified service person must connect log set to gas supply. Follow all local codes.

Installation Items Needed

Before installing log set, make sure you have the items listed below.

piping (check local codes)

sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)

equipment shutoff valve

test gauge connection

adjustable (crescent) wrench or pliers

sediment trap

tee joint

pipe wrench

CAUTION: Use only new, black iron or steel pipe. Internally-tinned copper tubing may be used in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to allow proper gas volume to log set. If pipe is too small, undue loss of volume will occur.

We recommend that you install sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 4. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and heater. Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into log set controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, log set may not run properly.
