Installation and Operation Instructions
During the first few times of operation of this
appliance there will be some odor due to the
curing of the paint and burning off of lubricants
used in the manufacturing process. We recommend that you open windows and ventilate the
house during the initial burns. The paint emits
non-toxic odors during this process.
Depending on your use, the burn-in period may
take a few hours or a few days.
KEEP YOUR HOUSE WELL VENTILATED
DURING THE BURN-IN PERIOD. THE ODOR
AND HAZE EMITTED DURING THE BURN-IN
PERIOD CAN BE QUITE NOTICEABLE AND MAY
SET OFF A SMOKE DETECTOR.
If an optional blower is installed, Do not turn it
on during the Burn-In period.
Adhere to all local codes or in their absence
the latest edition of The National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1 or NFPA 54 - latest edition which
can be obtained from The American National
Standards Institute, Inc. (25 West 43rd Street,

COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
WARNING
Heaters installed in these appliances 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 local
codes. Read the following instructions to ensure proper fresh air for
this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home.
Today’s homes are built more energy efficient
than ever. New materials, increased insulation
and new construction methods help reduce
heat loss in homes. Homeowners apply weather
strip and caulk around windows and doors to
keep the cold air out and the warm air in. During
heating months, homeowners want their homes
as airtight as possible.
While it is good to make your home energy
efficient, 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, some fireplaces, clothes dryers
and some fuel-burning appliances draw air
from the house to operate. You must provide
adequate fresh air for these appliances. This will
ensure 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.
All spaces in homes fall into one of the three
following ventilation classifications:
1. Unusually Tight Construction
2. Unconfined Space
3. Confined Space
The information on Pages 8 through 10 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 combustion
and ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction, you must provide
additional fresh air.
Unusually tight construction is defined as
construction where:
a. walls and ceilings exposed to the outside
atmosphere have a continuous water
vapor retarder with a rating of one perm
-11
(6 x 10
openings gasketed or sealed and
b. weather stripping has been added on
4
openable windows and doors and
kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with
c. caulking or sealants are applied to areas
such as joints around window and door
frames, between sole plates and floors,
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, in the In
stallation and Operation manual for the heater.
If your home does not meet all of the three
criteria above, proceed to Determining
Fresh-Air Flow For Firebox Location.
Confined and Unconfined Space
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA54 allows two methods for determining
whether the space in which the heater is being
installed is confined or unconfined space. The
standard method defines a confined space as
a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic
feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m
of the aggregate input rating of all appliances
installed in that space and an unconfined
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 aggregate 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 unconfined space.
Where the air infiltration rate of a structure
is known, the Known Air Infiltration Rate
Method may be used. Follow The National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 to use this
method to determine if the space is confined
or unconfined.
* 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 Confined or
Unconfined Space Using the Standard
Method
Use this work sheet to determine if you have
a confined or unconfined 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
ft. (width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 3,168
cu. ft. (volume of space)
If additional ventilation to adjoining room
is supplied 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.
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATION ARE NOT TO SCALE.
: Space size 22 ft. (length) x 18
________ (volume of space) x 20 = (Maxi-
mum BTU/Hr the space can support)
Example
20 = 63,360 (maximum BTU/Hr space can
support)
3. Add the BTU/Hr of all fuel burning appli
ances in the space.
Vent-free fireplace ________ BTU/Hr
Gas water heater* ________ BTU/Hr
Gas furnace ________ BTU/Hr
-
Vented gas heater ________ BTU/Hr
Gas fireplace logs ________ BTU/Hr
Other gas appliances* + _______ BTU/Hr
Total = ________ BTU/Hr
* Do not include direct-vent gas appli
ances. Direct-vent draws combustion
air from the outdoors and vents to the
outdoors.
Example:
Gas water heater
Vent-free fireplace +
Total =
4. Compare the maximum BTU/Hr the space
can support with the actual amount of BTU/
Hr used.
_______ BTU/Hr (maximum the space can
support)
_______ BTU/Hr (actual amount of BTU/Hr
used)
Example
79,000 BTU/Hr (actual amount
The space in the example is a confined 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 unconfined space, remove
door to adjoining room or add ventilation
grills between rooms. See Ventilation Air
From Inside Building
Operation manual for the heater
B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See
Ventilation Air From Outdoors,
lation and Operation manual for the heater
C. Install a lower BTU/Hr appliance, if lower
BTU/Hr size makes room unconfined.
If the actual BTU/Hr used is less than the
maximum BTU/Hr the space can support, the
space is an unconfined space. You will need no
additional fresh air ventilation.

COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
Not to Scale
For cold climate installations, seal all cracks
around the appliance with noncombustible
material and wherever cold air could enter
the room. It is especially important to insulate
outside cavities between studs and under floor
on which the appliance rests, if floor is above
ground level. Gas line holes and other openings
should be caulked with high temperature caulk
or stuffed with unfaced fiberglass insulation. 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 conducting cold up into the room. It
also helps to
for maximum air tightness and caulk firestops.

ASSEMBLY STEPS
NOTES:
• Illustrations shown in this manual reflect
“typical” installations with nominal dimensions and are for design and framing reference only. Actual installations may vary due
to individual design preferences. However,
always maintain minimum clearances to
combustible materials and do not violate any
specific installation requirements. Refer to
the Framing Specifications Figure
on Page 11.
10
• The following steps represent the normal
sequence of installation. Each installation
is unique, however, and might require a
different sequence.
Step 1. Position firebox prior to framing or
into prepared framing.
Step 2. Field wire the main power supply to
the appliance if a blower kit is to be installed
(at the time of installation or a later date).
An optional junction box kit and blower kit is required (see Page 15
Follow the installation and wiring instructions on
Pages 12 through 14). Electrical connections
should only be performed by an experienced,
licensed/certified tradesman.
Step 3. Plumb gas line. (Gas connections
should only be performed by an experienced,
licensed/certified tradesman).
Step 4. Install decorative type Vent-Free room
heater per the instructions provided with the
Vent-Free room heater.
Step 5. Complete finish wall material, sur
round and optional hearth extension to your
individual taste.
for ordering information).
s 8 through
INSTALLATION
Gas Line Installation
CAUTION
Plumbing connections should
only be performed by a qualified,
licensed plumber. Main gas supply
must be off when plumbing gas line
to fireplace or performing service.
Consult all local codes.
Properly size and route the gas supply line
from the supply regulator to the area where the
appliance is to be installed per requirements
outlined in the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA
54 - latest edition (USA) or B149 - latest edition
(Canada). Never use galvanized or plastic pipe.
Gas lines must be routed, constructed and made
of materials that are in strict accordance with
local codes and regulations. We recommend
that a qualified individual such as a plumber
or gas fitter be hired to correctly size and route
the gas supply line to the appliance. Installing
a gas supply line from the fuel supply to the
appliance involves numerous considerations of
materials, protection, sizing, locations, controls,
pressure, sediment, and more. Certainly no one
unfamiliar and unqualified should attempt sizing
or installing gas piping.
Remove the gas line access cover plate on either
the left or right side of the fireplace (see Figure
7 showing locations).
Install 1/2" min. to 1-1/2" max. inside diameter
approved gas line through the firebox wall for
connection to the Vent-Free room heater inside
the firebox. Connect the gas line before the
firebox is enclosed in the finished wall. Gas line
holes and other openings should be caulked with
high temperature caulk or stuffed with unfaced
fiberglass insulation.
Ensure that a sediment trap is installed in the
existing gas line, if not, install a sediment trap
upstream of the heater to prevent moisture and
contaminants from passing through trap to the
heater controls and burners. Failure to do so
could prevent the heater from operating reliably.
An external regulator must be used on all propane (L.P.G). heaters, in addition to the regulator
fitted to the heater, to reduce the supply tank
pressure to 13" W.C. (maximum). Any copper
-
tubing used to supply propane (L.P.G). from
the tank must be internally tinned.
WARNING
Check Gas Type: The gas supply
must be the same as stated on the
heater’s rating plate. If the gas
supply is different, DO NOT INSTALL
the heater. Contact your dealer for
the correct model.
IMPORTANT
Hold heater regulator with a wrench
to prevent movement when connecting to inlet piping.
WARNING
Connecting directly to an unregulated propane (L.P.G.) tank can
cause an explosion.
IMPORTANT
Pack unfaced fiberglass insulation
material (not provided) around the
gas line access hole on appliance
and all exterior gas line penetration holes.
TEST ALL CONNECTIONS FOR GAS LEAKS
(FACTORY AND FIELD)
Test all gas joints from the gas meter to the gas
heater regulator for leaks using a gas leak test
solution (also referred to as bubble leak solution).
NOTE: Using a soapy water solution as a leak
detection solution is not recommended because
the soap residue that is left on the pipes/fittings
can result in a false-positive leak detection reading
if a gas leak sniffer is used. Soap residue can also
result in corrosion over time.
DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK
FOR LEAKS.
Leak Test Procedure:
Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks using
a gas leak test solution.
A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting
instructions label provided with gas logs).
B. Brush all joints and connections with the gas
leak detection solution. If bubbles are formed,
or gas odor is detected, turn the gas control
knob (off/pilot/on) to the “OFF” position. Either
tighten or refasten the leaking connection, then
retest as described above.
C. When the gas lines are tested and found to
be leak free, rinse off the leak testing solution
from gas line fittings.

Firebox Framing
Construct firebox framing following Figures 8
through 10 and Table 1 on Page 11 for your
specific installation requirements. Refer to
Figure 7 on Page 10 for firebox dimensions.
The firebox may be installed directly on a
combustible floor or raised on a platform of
an appropriate height. When the appliance is
installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile (other
than ceramic) or other combustible material,
other than wood flooring, the appliance shall
be installed on a metal or wood panel extending
the full width and depth of the appliance. Be
sure firebox rests on a solid continuous floor or
platform with appropriate framing for support
and so that no cold air can enter room from
under the firebox.
CAUTION
Do not block the heat-circulating
air inlets and outlets on these
fireboxes. Doing so may create a
potential fire hazard.
The firebox may be positioned and then the
framing built around it, or the framing may
be constructed and the firebox positioned into
the opening.
Usually, no special floor support is needed for
the firebox, however, to be certain:
1. Estimate the total weight of the firebox
system and surround materials such as
marble, brick, stone, etc., to be installed
(see Product Reference Table on Page 10
for appliance weight).
2. Measure the square footage of the floor
space to be occupied by the system and
surrounds.
3. Note the floor construction, i.e. 2" x 6", 2" x
8" or 2" x 10", single or double joists, type
and thickness of floor boards.
4. Use this information and consult your lo-
cal building code to determine if you need
additional support.
If you plan to raise the firebox, build the platform assembly then position firebox on top.
Secure the platform to the floor to prevent
possible shifting.
Firebox Installation
Step 1. Frame these appliances as illustrated
in Figures 8 through 10. All framing details
must allow for a minimum clearance to
combustible framing members as shown in
Figures 2 through 5. Also refer to appliance
specifications on Page 10 . Headers may be in
direct contact with the appliance top spacers
but must not be supported by them or notched
to fit around them. All construction above the
appliance must be self supporting, DO NOT USE
THE APPLIANCE FOR STRUCTURAL SUPPORT.
NOTE: The framed depth from a framed wall,
must always be measured from a finished
surface. If a wall covering such as drywall is
to be attached to the rear wall, then the depth
must be measured from the drywall surface.
It is important that this dimension be exact.
Step 2. Level the firebox by checking the top
edge of the firebox. Shim if necessary.
Step 3. Fireplace should be secured to side
framing members using the full length nailing
tabs at the top and bottom of the fireplace front
face. Use 8d nails or equivalent nail or screw
(see Figure 6).
NOTE: The nailing flange and the area directly
behind the nailing flange is exempt from the
clearances described on the firebox clearance
label.
IMPORTANT
Under no circumstances shall the
firebox top spacers be removed or
modified (see Figure 7). The header
may be in direct contact with the top
spacers but must not be supported
by them notched or altered to fit
around them.
