INTRODUCTION
These vented gas fireplace heaters are direct-vent (top vent only), sealed combustion, air-circulating gas fireplaces
designed for residential applications. Direct-vent appliances operate with the combustion chamber isolated from the
indoor environment. All air for combustion is brought in from the outside, and exhaust gases are vented through the
same direct-vent, coaxial (intake/exhaust) vent system.
These appliances are designed to operate on natural or propane gas only. The use of other fuels or fuel combinations
will degrade the performance of this system, may be dangerous, and may void the warranty.
Electronic fireplaces are designed with an electronic intermittent pilot ignition system. Electrical power (110 Vac line
voltage) is recommended to operate the fireplace; however, AA batteries (not provided) can be used for full-time
operation or as a backup in case of a power outage.
Batteries will operate the flame ON/OFF function only. Electrical power is required to operate the optional blower.
A remote control system is included with all models and provides remote ON/OFF flame control (manual adjustment
of the gas valve settings is not possible).

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
These fireplaces are approved for installation in the U.S. state of Massachusetts if the following additional
requirements are met:
s Install this fireplace in accordance with Massachusetts Rules and Regulations 248 C.M.R..
s Installation and repair must be done by a plumber or gas fitter licensed in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
s The flexible gas line connector used shall not exceed 36” (914 mm) in length.
s The individual manual shutoff must be a T-handle type valve.
Massachusetts Horizontal Vent Requirements
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, horizontal terminations installed less than seven (7) ft above the finished
grade must comply with the following additional requirements:
s A hard wired carbon monoxide detector with an alarm and battery back-up must be installed on the floor level
where the gas fireplace is installed. The carbon monoxide detector must comply with NFPA 720, be ANSI/UL
2034 listed and be ISA certified.
s A metal or plastic identification plate must be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum height
of eight (8) ft above grade and be directly in line with the horizontal termination. The sign must read, in print size no
less than one-half (1/2) inch in size, GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS.
COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
For cold climate installations, seal all cracks around your fireplace with noncombustible material and wherever cold
air could enter the room. It is especially important to insulate outside chase cavity between studs and under floor on
which fireplace rests, if floor is above ground level. Gas line holes and other openings should be caulked or stuffed
with unfaced fiberglass insulation. Caulk the firestop only where the pipe penetrates an outside wall, attic, or other
unconditioned space.
NOTE: Do not use loose, or blown-in insulation in the cavity surrounding the fireplace.
If the fireplace is being installed on a cement slab in cold climates, a sheet of plywood or other raised platform can
be placed underneath to prevent conduction of cold transferring to the fireplace and into the room. It also helps to
sheetrock inside surfaces and tape for maximum air tightness and caulk firestops.

Installation
CAUTION
If propane is used, be aware that with a tank that is too small (i.e., under 100 lbs, if this is the only gas
appliance in the dwelling—see NPFA 58), there may be a loss of pressure. This can result in insufficient
fuel delivery that can cause sooting, delayed ignition, or other malfunctions. Any damage resulting from an
improper installation is not covered by the limited warranty.
4. Rough in the Electrical Supply, if Needed
1. As necessary, rough in the fireplace electrical supply per NEC and local codes.
5. Prepare the Fireplace Nailing Flanges
Nailing flange positions are provided for the following wall finish thicknesses:
s 1/2”
s 3/4”
s 1 1/4”
s 1 1/2”
s 1”
Preparing the nailing flanges for a cleanface finish installation
1. If the wall finish material is thicker than 1/2”, move the nailing flanges to the correct horizontal position.
NOTE: The nailing flanges are set at the factory in the correct vertical position for a cleanface installation (Figure 11).
Figure 11: Vertical nailing flange settings for cleanface finish Figure 12: Vertical nailing flange settings for surround finish
Preparing the nailing flanges for a surround finish installation
1. Move the nailing flanges to the correct vertical positions (Figure 12).
2. Adjust the nailing flanges to the correct horizontal position.
6. Place the Fireplace in the Framing and Secure
1. Secure the fireplace to the side framing members using the unit’s nailing flanges —one top and bottom on each
side of the fireplace front (Figure 13). Use 8d nails or the equivalent.
NOTE: Nailing flanges, combustible members, and screw heads in areas directly adjacent to the nailing flanges are
EXEMPT from the 1/2” clearance to combustible requirements for the firebox outer wrapper. Combustible framing
may be in direct contact with the nailing flanges and may be located within 1/2” of screw heads and the firebox
wrapper in areas adjacent to the nailing flanges.

VENT SYSTEM PREPARATION
7. Select a Horizontal or Vertical Vent System
1. With the fireplace secured in the framing, determine the vent route and identify the exterior termination location.
The following sections describe vertical (roof) and horizontal (exterior wall) vent applications. Use only approved
vent components (Page 8 and Page 45).
NOTE: This fireplace must be vented directly to the outside.
The vent system may not service multiple appliances, and must never be connected to a
flue serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance.
NOTE: The vent pipe is tested to be run inside an enclosed wall (such as a chase). There is no requirement for
inspection openings in the enclosing wall at any of the joints in the vent pipe.
8. Install the Vent Restrictor (if necessary)
1. Use the vent run descriptions in Figure 14 to determine if a vent restrictor is necessary.
2. If necessary, assemble the vent restrictor and wings as detailed in Figure 14 and Figure 16.
3. If necessary, install the appropriate vent restrictor with the flaps facing up (Figure 15). The vent restrictor is held in
place by friction. The vent restrictor must not be visible inside the firebox.

Vent Restrictor with Vertical Terminations
When vertically terminating the vent system through the roof and using the vent restrictor, install the vent restrictor
in the top vent of the fireplace outlet.
If installing more than 6 ft of vertical venting, install the restrictor (Figure 15), from inside or outside the unit, in the
inner fireplace collar. The vent restrictor is held in place by friction.
Vent Restrictor with Horizontal Terminations
When horizontally terminating a vent system with a vertical vent run up to 4 ft through an exterior wall, no vent restrictor is required.
If installing more than 4 ft of vertical venting, install the restrictor (Figure 15), from inside or outside the unit, in the
inner fireplace collar. The vent restrictor is held in place by friction.

Connecting the vent pipe
Secure Vent® SV4.5 direct-vent system components are unitized concentric pipe components featuring positive twist lock connections
(Figure 17 and Figure 18). All of the fireplaces covered in this document are fitted with collars having locking inclined channels. The
dimpled end of the vent components fit over the fireplace/vent collar to create the positive twist lock connection.
1. Align the dimpled end over the collar, adjusting the radial alignment until the four (4) locking dimples are aligned
with the inlet of the four (4) inclined channels on the collar (Figure 17).
2. Push the vent component against the collar until it fully engages, then twist the component clockwise, running
the dimples down and along the incline channels until they seat at the end of the channels.

NOTE: The unitized design of the Secure Vent® components will engage and seal both the inner and outer vent pipe.
3. If desired, a #6 x 1/2” screw can be used at the joint, but is not required as the pipe will securely lock
when twisted (Figure 18).
Where required, a telescopic vent section (SV4.5LA) may be used to provide the installer with an option to install
in tight and confined spaces, or where the vent run made up of fixed length pieces develops a joint in a undesirable
location, or will not build up to the required length. The telescopic vent section has an effective length of from
1 1/2–7 1/2” (38–191 mm). The telescopic vent section is fitted with a locking inclined channel end (identical to a
normal vent section component) and a plain end with three (3) pilot holes. Slip the plain end over the locking channel
end of a standard SV4.5 vent component the required distance and secure with three (3) screws.

Vent elbows are available in 90° and 45° configurations. Refer to Figure 19 for the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90
elbow dimensions. The elbows feature a twist section to allow them to be routed about the center axis of their initial
collar section to align with the required direction of the next vent run element. Two (2) 45° elbows may be used in
place of one 90° elbow. When planning vent runs, make allowances for elbows.
NOTE: A 90° elbow may NOT be attached directly to the appliance collar. A minimum of 6” of vent pipe must be used between the
fireplace collar and a 90° elbow. An elbow is accepatble as 1 ft of vertical rise.
1. Rotate the elbow in a clockwise direction (to avoid the possiblity of unlocking any of the previously connected
vent sections) for proper alignment (Figure 19). See Connecting the vent pipe for more information.

Install the Vertical Termination Vent System
These instructions should be used as a guideline and do not supersede local codes in any way. Install venting
according to local codes, these instructions, the current National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1) in the USA or the
current standards of CAN/CGA-B149.1 in Canada.
Ensure clearances are in accordance with local installation codes and the requirements of the gas supplier.
Dégagement conforme aux codes d’installa tion locaux et aux exigences du foumisseunde gaz.
Vertical vent systems terminate through the roof. The minimum vent height above the roof and/or adjacent walls
is specified in ANSI Z223.1 (In Canada, the current CAN/CGA-B149.1 installation code) by major building codes.
Always consult your local codes for specific requirements. A general guide to follow is the gas vent rule (Table 6).
The following figures and their associated vertical vent tables illustrate the various configurations that are possible
for use with these fireplaces. Secure Vent® pipe is shown in these figures; Secure Flex® pipe may also be used.
A table summarizes each configuration’s minimum and maximum vertical and horizontal length parameters for a
variety of applications.
1. Refer to Figure 25, Table 19, and Table 20 on Page 26–27 to select the type of vertical installation desired.
Elbows are available in 90° and 45° configurations. Refer to Figure 19 on Page 21 for the SV4.5E45 and
SV4.5E90 elbow dimensional specifications.

joists. Allow for elbows (Figure 19). Maintain the minimum clearances for combustibles (Page 23).
2. Frame the ceiling opening—Use a plumb line from the ceiling above the fireplace to locate the center of the vertical
run. Cut and/or frame an opening, 10 1/2 x 10 1/2” (267 x 267 mm) inside dimensions, about this center mark
(Figure 21). Vertical firestop/spacer must be used anywhere vent pipe passes through a combustible floor or ceiling.

3. Attach the vent components to the fireplace—See Connecting the vent pipe on Page 21.
4. Attach the vent components to each other—See Connecting the vent pipe on Page 21.
5. Install firestop/spacer at ceiling—When using Secure Vent®, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer at ceiling joists; when
using Secure Flex®, use SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there is living space above the ceiling level, the firestop/
spacer must be installed on the bottom side of the ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling, the firestop/spacer
must be installed on the top side of the joist. Route the vent sections through the framed opening and secure the
firestop/spacer with 8d nails or other appropriate fasteners at each corner.
Remember to maintain 1” (25 mm) clearance to combustibles, framing members, and attic or ceiling insulation
when running vertical chimney sections. The gap between the vent pipe and a vertical firestop can be sealed with
non-combustible caulking.
NOTE: Attic insulation shield (96K94) must be installed when blown or loose-fill insulation is used, and is
recommended for all attic installations.
6. Support the vertical vent run sections—Support the vertical portion of the venting system every 8 ft (2.4 m)
above the fireplace vent outlet. One method of support is by utilizing field provided support straps (conventional
plumber’s tape). Secure the plumber’s tape to the framing members with nails or screws. Loop the tape around
the vent, securing the ends of the tape to the framing. If desired, sheet metal screws #6 x 1/2” length may be
used to secure the support straps to the vent pipe (Figure 22).
NOTE: Proper venting support is very important. Never use the fireplace to support the weight of the venting.
Figure 22: Supporting the Vertical Vent Run
7. Change vent direction of horizontal/inclined run—Install the SV4.5E45 and SV4.5E90 elbows in the same
24
manner as the straight vent sections. See Vent elbows on Page 21 for more information.

sections in horizontal/inclined run. Install support straps every 5 ft (1.52 m) along horizontal/inclined vent runs
using conventional plumber’s tape.
Rise per foot run ratios are acceptable all the way to level. For best results, maintain the horizontal/inclined run in
a straight (no dips), slightly elevated plane of approximately 1/4” per 1 ft (20 mm per 1 m).
Maintain the required clearances to combustibles (Page 23).
9. Frame the roof opening—Identify the location for the vent at the roof. Cut and/or frame opening (Table 18).
Tabl e 18: Roof Framing Dimensions
10. Install the roof flashing—Extend the vent sections through the roof structure. Install the roof flashing over the
vent section and position such that the vent column rises vertically (use carpenters level). Nail along perimeter
to secure flashing or adjust roofing to overlap the flashing edges at top and sides only and trim where necessary.
Seal the top and both sides of the flashing with waterproof caulking.
11. Install the storm collar—Install the storm collar, supplied with the flashing, over the vent/flashing joint
(Figure 23). Loosen the storm collar screw. Slide collar down until it meets the top of the flashing. Tighten the
adjusting screw. Apply non-combustible caulking or mastic around the circumference of the joint to provide a
water tight seal.

this center (Figure 21).
4. Attach the vent components to the fireplace—See Connecting the vent pipe on Page 21.
5. Attach the vent components to each other—See Connecting the vent pipe on Page 21.
6. Install the firestop/spacer at the ceiling—When using Secure Vent®, use SV4.5VF firestop/spacer at ceiling
joists; when using Secure Flex®, use SF4.5VF firestop/spacer. If there is living space above the ceiling level,
the firestop/ spacer must be installed on the bottom side of the ceiling. If attic space is above the ceiling, the
firestop/spacer must be installed on the top side of the joist. Route the vent sections through the framed opening
and secure the firestop/spacer with 8d nails or other appropriate fasteners at each corner.
Maintain 1” (25 mm) clearance to combustibles, framing members, and attic or ceiling insulation when running
vertical chimney sections.
NOTE: Attic insulation shield (96K94) must be installed when blown or loose-fill insulation is used, and is
recommended for all attic installations.
7. Support the vertical run sections—On the vertical run, support the venting system every 8 ft (2.4 m) above the
fireplace vent outlet with field provided support straps (Plumber’s tape). Attach the straps to the vent pipe and
secure to the framing members with nails or screws (Figure 26).
28
NOTE: Proper venting support is very important. Never use the fireplace to support the weight of the venting.

Astria™ Sirius Linear Direct-Vent Gas Fireplaces
8. Change vent direction—At transition from or to a horizontal/inclined run, install SV4.5E45 or SV4.5E90 elbows
in the same manner as the straight vent sections. The elbows feature a twist section to allow them to be routed
about the center axis of their initial collar section to align with the required direction of the next vent run element.
Twist elbow sections in a clockwise direction only so as to avoid the possiblity of unlocking any of the previously
connected vent sections (Figure 19).
9. Continue installation of horizontal/inclined sections—Continue with the installation of the straight vent
sections in horizontal/inclined run. Install support straps every 5 ft. (1.52 m) along horizontal/inclined vent runs
using conventional plumber’s tape or catalog number SV4.5SU (Figure 26). Maintain the horizontal/inclined run
in a straight (no dips), slightly elevated plane. The recommended incline is approximately 1/4” per 1 ft (20 mm
per 1 m) horizontal, in a direction away from the fireplace. Smaller rise per foot run ratios are acceptable all the
way to at or near level. Use a carpenter’s level to measure from a constant surface and adjust the support straps
as necessary.
Maintain the required clearances to combustibles (Page 23).
10. Assemble the vent run to the exterior wall—If not previously measured, locate the center of the vent at the
exterior wall. Prepare the opening. Assemble the vent system until the terminus of the last section is within
5” (127 mm) to 8 1/2” (216 mm) inboard of the exterior surface to which the termination is to be attached
(Figure 27). If the terminus of the last section is not within this distance, use the telescopic vent section
SV4.5LA, as the last vent section. Table 21 lists the additional venting components needed (in addition to the
termination and adaptor) for a range of wall thicknesses.
11. Attach the termination adaptor—Attach the adaptor (SV4.5RCH, provided with the termination) to the vent
section or telescoping vent section, elbow or fireplace collar (Figure 27).
NOTE: If blown insulation is to be used, the through-wall shield kit (H5816) MUST be installed.
12. Install the firestop/spacer at the exterior wall—Install SV4.5HF (Secure Vent), SF4.5HF (Secure Flex) firestop/
spacer over the opening at the exterior side of the framing, long side up, with the 3” spacer clearance at the top
(Figure 27) and nail into place.
Installation
900079-00, 02/2014
NOTE: The firestop/spacer may also be installed over the opening at the interior side of the framing.
13. Install the termination (SV4.5HT-2 and SV4.5HTSS (42” models only))—From outside the exterior wall,
slide the collars of the termination onto the adaptor (the outer over the outer and the inner inside the inner)
until the termination seats against the exterior wall surface to which it will be attached. Orient the housing of
the termination with the arrow pointed upwards. Secure the termination to the exterior wall. The horizontal
termination must not be recessed into the exterior wall or siding by more than the 1 1/4” (32 mm) (Figure 28).
NOTE: If the venting exits the building below grade, or close to grade, see Installation Accessories on
Page 45 for available snorkel terminations. The termination must be above grade and above the expected
level of snow accumulation.
NOTE: The vent termination is hot while in operation and for a period of time following the use of the fireplace.
To prevent contact with hot surfaces, use a horizontal termination guard; available for purchase at your
local dealer.
The horizontal terminations have been designed to perform in a wide range of weather conditions. They meet or
exceed industry standards.
When selecting the locations of your horizontal terminations, do not place the termination where water from
eaves and adjoining rooflines may create a heavy flow of cascading water onto the termination cap. If the cap
must be placed where the possibility of cascading water exists, it is the responsibility of the builder to direct the
water away from the termination cap by using gutters or other means.
Carefully follow the installation instructions for the termination, including the use of silicone caulking
where required.

Vertical or Horizontal Venting Using Secure Flex Kits and Components
Secure Flex venting kits and components may be used in any other vent installation where rigid Secure Vent® (SV4.5)
direct-vent components can be used. All restrictions, clearances and allowances pertaining to rigid vent also apply to
flexible vent. Do NOT modify Secure Flex kits . Also, do NOT join separate sections of flex vent together. Secure Flex
kits can be installed on the end of a Secure Vent (SV4.5) rigid vent run, provided that doing so does not violate any
of the venting length, height, routing, horizontal to vertical ratio requirements, or clearance considerations detailed in
this manual.
Secure Flex kits come with an included adaptor that can be installed on the fireplace collar or the inclined channel
end of the last Secure Vent (SV4.5) vent section in a rigid system in the exact same fashion as any other Secure Vent
section. Align the dimpled end of the adaptor over the previously installed section or fireplace collar, adjusting the
radial alignment until the four locking dimples of the adaptor are aligned with the inlets of the four incline channels of
the last vent section or collar. Push on the adaptor until it is fully engaged, then twist the adaptor clockwise running
the dimples down and along the incline channels until they seat at the end of the channels.

5. Replace the battery holder and other removed components (if applicable) in reverse order.
11. Connect the Gas Line
The gas control valve is located in the lower control compartment (Figure 53).
All codes require a shutoff valve mounted in the supply line. Figure 34 illustrates the method for connecting the gas
supply. The flex-line method is acceptable in the U.S., however, Canadian requirements vary depending on locality.
Installation must be in compliance with local codes. The provided gas-line shutoff valve (located in the control
compartment) is intended as a service shutoff. National and local codes may require installation of a second gas-line
shutoff valve (not provided) in a readily accessible location. Consult local codes.
These fireplaces are equipped with a gas flex line for use (where permitted) in connecting the unit to the gas line. A
gas flex line is provided to aid in attaching the direct-vent fireplace to the gas supply. The gas flex line can only be
used where local codes permit. The flex line is rated for both natural and propane gas. A manual shutoff valve is also
provided with the flex line. The gas line shutoff valve provided with the fireplace has a 1/2” NPT thread inlet port.
WARNING
NOTE: Ensure the CPI/IPI switch is set to intermittent mode with the pilot in the OFF position. See control
compartment label for more information.
NOTE: A sediment trap is recommended in the gas piping within the home to prevent moisture and debris in the line
from damaging the valve.
NOTE: Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and sealing compounds. Ensure propane resistant compounds
36
are used in propane applications.

Test Factory and Field Connections for Gas Leaks
Never use an open flame to check for leaks.
Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks, using a gas leak test solution—also known as bubble leak solution.
NOTE: Using a soapy water solution is an effective leak test solution but it is not recommended, because the soap
residue that is left on the pipes/fittings can result in corrosion over time.
1. Light the fireplace (refer to the lighting instructions label in the control compartment or Page 62).
2. Brush all joints and connections with the gas leak test solution to check for leaks. If bubbles are formed, or gas
odor is detected, turn the receiver or remote control to the OFF position. Either tighten or refasten the leaking
connection, and then retest as described above.
3. When the gas lines are tested and leak free, rinse off the leak testing solution.
12. Verify Proper Fireplace Operation
1. With the gas line installed, inspect the system before closing the front of the unit.
2. Follow the pilot lighting instructions (Page 62).
NOTE: When lighting the fireplace for the first time, it will take a few minutes for the gas line to purge itself of air. When
purged, the pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated. Subsequent lighting of the fireplace will not require purging.
3. To light the burner, turn ON the wall or remote control switch. Ensure the igniter lights the pilot. The pilot flame
should engulf the flame rod (Figure 35).

18. Adjust the Air Shutter to Ensure Proper Flame Appearance
sAir shutter adjustment should only be performed by a qualified professional service technician.
sEnsure glass door is in place and sealed during adjustment.
sSoot will be produced if the air shutter is closed too much. Any damage due to sooting,
resulting from improperly setting the air shutter, is not covered under the warranty.
sThe air shutter door and nearby appliance surfaces are hot. Exercise caution to avoid
injury while adjusting flame appearance.
Back Panel
WARNING
CAUTION
Flame Appearance and Sooting
The flame should be blue at the base, and yellow-orange in the body of the flame.
When the fireplace is first lit, the entire flame may be blue and will gradually turn yellow-orange during the first 30
minutes of operation. If the flame remains blue, or if the flame is orange with evidence of sooting (black tip), the air
shutter opening may need to be adjusted.
If the air shutter opening is closed too far, sooting may develop. Sooting is indicated by black puffs developing at
the tips of very long orange flames. Sooting results in black deposits forming on the fireplace inside surfaces and on
exterior surfaces adjacent to the vent termination.
Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in the flames and lack of combustion air entering the air shutter
opening. To achieve a warm yellow-orange flame with an orange body that does not soot, the shutter opening must
be adjusted between these two extremes.

Air Shutter Adjustment Guidelines
s If there is smoke or soot present, first ensure that the flames are not impinging on any of the panels. If the
panels are properly positioned and a sooting condition still exists, increase the air shutter opening.
s The more offsets in the vent system, the wider the air shutter will need to be opened.
s The length and configuration of the chimney vent will afffect flame appearance.
s A fireplace operated with the air shutter opened too far may have flames that appear blue and transparent. These
weak, blue, and transparent flames are termed anemic.
s Propane models may exhibit flames that candle or appear stringy. If this condition is present and persists, adjust
the air shutter to a more open position, then operate the fireplace for a few more minutes to ensure that the
flame normalizes and the flames do not appear sooty. The following chart is provided to help achieve the correct
air shutter adjustment for your installation.

1. Move the adjustment lever (Figure 37) down to decrease air flow and up to increase it. Position the air shutter to
the factory setting (Table 26).
2. Light the fireplace. Follow the lighting procedure on the lighting label in the control compartment or Page 62.
3. Allow the burner to operate for at least thirty (30) minutes while observing the flame continuously to ensure that
the proper flame appearance is achieved (Figure 38). If the following conditions are present, adjust accordingly.
s If flame appears weak or sooty, adjust the air shutter, incrementally, to a more open position until the proper
flame appearance is achieved.
s If flame remains blue, adjust the air shutter, incrementally, to a more closed position until the proper flame
appearance is achieved.
4. When satisfied that the burner flame appearance is normal, proceed to finish the installation.

Continuous Pilot Ignition / Intermittent Pilot Ignition Switch
These fireplaces have a continuous pilot ignition (CPI) / intermittent pilot ignition (IPI) switch installed under the
door. This switch allows the pilot to be switched from intermittent mode to continuous mode:
s Intermittent Mode—The pilot is extinguished when the fireplace is OFF.
s Continuous Mode—The pilot stays ON when the fireplace is OFF.
In periods of extreme cold, condensation may form on the glass door when the fireplace is OFF and the pilot is in
intermittent mode. Also, with the pilot in intermittent mode, the fireplace may cycle startup (i.e., the pilot and burner ignite,
but the burner extinguishes and reignites several times until the flue reaches the temperature for proper drafting).
s To save energy—switch to intermittent mode.
s For a standing pilot that will help prevent glass door condensation and cycle startup—switch to continuous mode.
NOTE: Continuous mode is indicated by a pilot that comes ON and remains lit when the fireplace is OFF.
