PRODUCT FEATURES

OPERATION

This heater is clean burning. It requires no outside venting. There is no heat loss out a vent or up a chimney. Heat is generated by realistic

ames and glowing ceramic logs/coals. This

heater is designed for vent-free operation with

ue damper closed. It has been tested and

approved to ANSI Z21.11.2 standard for unvented heaters. State and local codes in some areas prohibit the use of vent-free heaters. This heater may also be operated as a vented decorative (ANSI Z21.60) product by opening

the ue damper.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

WARNING: This heater shall not be installed in a room or space unless the required volume of indoor combustion air is provided by the method described in the

National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the International Fuel Gas Code, or applicable lo-

cal codes. Read the following instructions to insure proper fresh air for this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.

Today’s homes are built more energy efcient than ever. New materials, increased insulation

and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes. Home owners weather strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out and the warm air in.

During heating months, home owners want

their homes as airtight as possible. While it is good to make your home energy

efcient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh

air must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation.

Exhaust fans, replaces, clothes dryers and

fuel burning appliances draw air from the house to operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for these appliances. This will insure proper venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.

PROVIDING ADEQUATE VENTILATION

The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Air for Combustion and Ventilation.

www.Astria.US.com

SAFETY DEVICE

This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent-free room heaters. The ODS/pilot shuts off the heater if there is not enough fresh air.

ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM

This system has an electronic ignitor. This system requires no matches or other sources to light heater. Receiver requires 4 AA batteries

(included), hand-held remote control requires

a 12-volt battery and a 3-volt button cell battery for the LCD display (both included).

All spaces in homes fall into one of the three

following ventilation classications:

1. Unusually Tight Construction

2. Unconned Space

3. Conned Space

The information on pages 6 through 8 will help you classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.

Unusually Tight Construction

The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combus-

tion and ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction, you must provide

additional fresh air.

Unusually tight construction is dened as

construction where: a. walls and ceilings exposed to the out-

side atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of one perm (6 x 10 with openings gasketed or sealed and

b. weather stripping has been added on

openable windows and doors and

c. caulking or sealants are applied to

areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole plates

and oors, between wall-ceiling joints,

between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical and gas lines and at other openings.

If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you must provide additional fresh air. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 8.

If your home does not meet all of the three criteria above, proceed to Determin- ing Fresh-Air Flow For Heater Location, page 7.

Conned and Unconned Space

The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54 denes a conned space as a space

whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per

1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the ag-

gregate input rating of all appliances installed in

that space and an unconned space as a space

whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per

1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the ag-

gregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with

the space in which the appliances are installed*, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconned space.

* Adjoining rooms are communicating only if there are doorless passageways or ventilation grills between them.

DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION

Determining if You Have a Conned or Unconned Space

Use this work sheet to determine if you have

a conned or unconned space.

Space: Includes the room in which you will install heater plus any adjoining rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.

1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height).

Length x Width x Height =__________cu. ft.

(volume of space)

Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft.

(width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 2,560 cu. ft.

(volume of space)

If additional ventilation to adjoining room is sup-

plied with grills or openings, add the volume of

these rooms to the total volume of the space.

2. Multiply the space volume by 20 to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.

________ (volume of space) x 20 = (Maxi-

mum Btu/Hr the space can support)

Example: 2,560 cu. ft. (volume of space) x

20 = 51,200 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can

support

3. Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances

The space in the above example is a conned

space because the actual Btu/Hr used is more than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support. You must provide additional fresh air. Your options are as follows:

A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an

adjoining room. If the extra space provides

an unconned space, remove door to adjoin-

ing room or add ventilation grills between

rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside

Building, page 8. B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See

Ventilation Air From Outdoors, page 8.

C. Install a lower Btu/Hr replace, if lower Btu/

Hr size makes room unconned.

If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maxi-

mum Btu/Hr the space can support, the space is an unconned space. You will need no additional

fresh air ventilation.

INSTALLING DAMPER CLAMP ACCESSORY FOR VENTED OPERATION

Note: When used as a vented heater, appliance must be installed only in a solid-fuel burning replace with a working ue and constructed of noncombustible material.

For Massachusetts Residents Only: Installation of this gas log set as a vented appliance in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires the damper be permanently removed or welded in the fully open position.

If your heater is a non-thermostatically-

controlled model, you may use this heater as

a vented product. There are three reasons for operating your heater in the vented mode.

1. The replace does not meet the clearance

to combustibles requirements for ventfree operation.

2. State or local codes do not permit ventfree operation.

3. You prefer vented operation.

If reasons number 1 or 2 above apply to you, you must permanently open chimney ue

damper. You must install the damper clamp

accessory (to order, see Accessories, page

26). This will insure vented operation (see Fig-

ure 10). The damper clamp will keep damper open. Installation instructions are included with clamp accessory.

See chart below for minimum permanent ue

opening you must provide. Attach damper clamp so the minimum permanent ue opening will be maintained at all times.

(non-utility) gas wells. This gas is commonly known as wellhead gas.

Installation Items Needed

Before installing heater, make sure you have

the items listed below.

• external regulator (for propane/LP units only, supplied by installer)

• piping (check local codes)

• sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)

• equipment shutoff valve *

• test gauge connection *

• sediment trap

• tee joint

• pipe wrench

• approved exible gas line with gas connec-

tor (if allowed by local codes) (provided)

* A CSA design-certied equipment shutoff

valve with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase

the optional CSA design-certied equipment

shutoff valve from your dealer.

For propane/LP units, the installer must

supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11" and 14" of water. If you do not re-

duce incoming gas pressure, heater regulator

damage could occur. Install external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in Figure

12. Pointing the vent down protects it from

freezing rain or sleet.

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

We recommend that you install a sediment trap (not supplied with log set) in supply line as shown in Figure 13. 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

captures moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into heater controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed

wrong, heater may not run properly.

CAUTION: Avoid damage to gas control. Hold gas control with wrench when connecting it

to gas piping and/or ttings.

CHECKING GAS CONNECTIONS

WARNING: Test all gas piping and connections, internal and external to unit, for leaks after installing or servicing. Correct all leaks at once.

WARNING: Never use an

open ame to check for a leak.

Apply a noncorrosive leak detec-

tion uid to all joints. Bubbles

forming show a leak. Correct all leaks at once.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ BEFORE LIGHTING

OPERATION

LIGHTING

INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: If you do not fol-

low these instructions exactly,

a re or explosion may result

causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

A. This appliance has a pilot which must

be lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these instructions exactly.

B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell all around

the appliance area for gas. Be sure to

smell next to the oor because some

gas is heavier than air and will settle

on the oor.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier

from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the re department.

C. Use only your hand to push in or turn

the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not push in or turn by hand, don’t try to repair it, call a quali-

ed service technician or gas supplier.

Force or attempted repair may result in

a re or explosion.

D. Do not use this appliance if any part

has been under water. Immediately

call a qualied service technician to

inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

WARNING:

• If replace has glass doors,

never operate this heater with glass doors closed. If you operate heater with doors closed,

heat buildup inside replace

will cause glass to burst. Make sure there are no obstructions

across openings of replace.

• You must operate this heater with a replace screen in place. Make sure replace screen is

closed before running heater.

NOTICE: During initial operation of new heater, burning logs will give off a paper-burning smell. Orange ame will also be present. Open damper or window to vent smell. This will only last a few hours.

NOTICE: During initial operation of new heater, metallic components may emit an odor as paint and assembly compounds are heated and cure. Be sure to provide adequate fresh air if odors are detected.

Note: Home owners generally prefer to operate their heater with the chimney damper closed. This will put all the heat into the room. However, there may be times you will desire the full ames of the HI heat setting but will nd the heat output excessive. You can open

the chimney damper (if you have one) fully or partially to release some of the heat.

WARNING: Damper handle will be hot if heater has been running.

WARNING: Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean may result in sooting and property damage.

BURNER INJECTOR HOLDER AND PILOT AIR INLET HOLE

The primary air inlet holes allow the proper amount of air to mix with the gas. This provides

a clean burning ame. Keep these holes clear of dust, dirt, lint and pet hair. Clean these air in-

let holes prior to each heating season. Blocked air holes will create soot. We recommend that you clean the unit every three months during operation and have heater inspected yearly by

a qualied service person.

We also recommend that you keep the burner tube clean and free of dust and dirt. We recommend using compressed air no greater

than 30 PSI. Your local computer store,

hardware store or home center may carry compressed air in a can. If using compressed

air in a can, please follow the directions on the can. If you don't follow directions on the can,

you could damage the pilot assembly.

1. Shut off the unit, including the pilot.

Allow the unit to cool for at least thirty minutes.

2. Inspect burner and primary air inlet holes on injector holder for dust and dirt (see Figure 24 and 25).
