2Safety Precautions
• IF YOU SMELL GAS:
*Do not light any appliance
*Extinguish any open flame
*Do not touch any electrical switch or plug or unplug anything
*Open windows and vacate building
*Call gas supplier from neighbor’s house, if not reached, call fire department
•This unit must be installed by a qualified installer to prevent the possibility of an
explosion. Your dealer will know the requirements in your area and can inform you of
those people considered qualified. The room heater should be inspected before use
and at least annually by a qualified service person. More frequent cleaning may be
required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc.
•The instructions in this manual must be strictly adhered to. Do not use makeshift
methods or compromise in the installation. Improper installation will void the warranty
and safety listing.
Ok
Look for this label:
For LPG only | Pout 11” W.C.
If the label is present, the
heater is equipped for LP
(propane). If the label is
absent, the heater is equipped
for NG (natural gas).
•Contact your local building
officials to obtain a permit
and information on any
installation restrictions or
inspection requirements in
your area. Notify your
insurance company of this
heater as well.
•It is imperative that control
compartments, screens, or
circulating air passageways
of the heater be kept clean
and free of obstructions.
These areas provide the air
necessary for safe
operation.
•This heater is either approved for
?
natural gas (NG) or propane (LP).
Burning the incorrect fuel will void the
warranty and safety listing and may
cause an extreme safety hazard.
Check the label above the gas control
valve to make sure it matches the fuel
being used. Direct questions about
the type of fuel used to your dealer.
•If the flame becomes sooty,
dark orange in color, or
extremely tall, do not
operate the heater. Call
your dealer and arrange for
proper servicing.
•Do not operate the heater if
it is not operating properly in
any fashion or if you are
uncertain. Call your dealer

be done by a trained
technician. Don’t modify or
replace orifices.
•Allow the heater to cool
before carrying out any
maintenance or cleaning.
•The pilot flame must contact
the thermopile and
thermocouple (see the
illustration to the left). If it
does not, turn the gas
control valve to “OFF” and
call your dealer.
•This unit is not for use with
solid fuel
•Do not place anything inside
the firebox (except the

danger of a hightemperature heater. Young
children should be
supervised when they are in
the same room as the
heater.
•Instruct everyone in the
house how to shut gas off to
the appliance and at the gas
main shutoff valve. The gas
main shutoff valve is usually
next to the gas meter or
propane tank and requires a
wrench to shut off.

•Due to the high temperature of the heater, it should be located out of traffic and away from
furniture and draperies.
?When placed in a location where the floor to ceiling height is under 7 feet, the installation is
considered an alcove and must meet the following requirements:
•The alcove floor to ceiling height must be at least 60” tall
•The alcove must not be more than 48” deep before the ceiling returns to 7’
•The alcove must be at least 42-1/2” wide
•The heater must not be placed so the vents below or above the door, along the sides of heater, or
along the back of the heater can become blocked.
•This heater may be placed in a bedroom. Please be aware of the large amount of heat this
appliance produces when determining a location.
Floor Protection Requirements
•When the stove is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl or other combustible material other than
wood flooring or a high pressure laminate wood floor, the stove must be installed on a metal or
wood protection panel extending the full width and depth of the heater (Minimum 22-1/2” wide by
17-5/8” deep).

located within 3’ of the heater). T-Handle gas cocks are required
in Massachusetts in compliance with code 248CMR.
•Installation must be performed by a qualified installer, service
agency or the gas supplier (In Massachusetts a licensed
plumber/gasfitter).
Gas Inlet Pressure
•With the heater off, the inlet pressure must meet the requirements listed in the table below?
If the pressure is not sufficient, make sure the piping used is large enough and the total
gas load for the residence does not exceed the amount supplied.
?The supply regulator (the regulator that attaches directly to the residence inlet or to the propane
tank) should supply gas at the suggested input pressure listed below. Contact the local gas
supplier if the regulator is at an improper pressure.
!Always maintain the required 1” clearance (air space) to combustible materials to prevent a fire hazard.
Do not fill air spaces with insulation.
!The gas appliance and vent system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never
be attached to a chimney serving a separate solid fuel or gas-burning appliance. Each direct vent gas
appliance must use it’s own separate vent system.

6Let the heater burn for thirty minutes. Adjust the air shutter, if necessary, to achieve the correct
looking flame (see the illustration below).
•The air shutter adjusts the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it exits the burner holes. It is
used to fine-tune the flame for differences in altitude and vent configuration.
ADJUSTING THE AIR SHUTTER
Gas Control Valve
Pushing to the left gives the flame less air
(making it more orange). Pushing to the
right gives the flame more air, making it
more blue. For fine adjustments use a
screwdriver to tap the air shutter.
NOTE: If the air shutter is all the way
open, yet the flames remain sooty, shut
off gas to the fireplace and contact a
qualified gas service technician.
NOTE: The logs must be installed correctly to
monitor the flame while adjusting the air shutter.
Air Shutter Control
Correct
Flames should be blue at the
base, yellow-orange on the top.
If the flames are over 14" tall or sooty on
the ends, open the air shutter.
Not Enough Air
Too Much Air
If the flames are all blue and
short, close the air shutter.
7Turn the flame adjust knob to its highest position - the flames should be a maximum 10” to 12” tall.
Check the flame on low position. The flames should burn off of each burner hole. If the heater does
not work correctly, contact your dealer for a remedy.

22Operation
A
Starting The Pilot Flame
The pilot flame is required to ignite the main
burners (it also plays a safety role). It should be
left on once lit. It will stay lit unless the gas
control valve is turned to "OFF". However, the
pilot will go out if the gas is shut off, the
propane tank runs out (or low) or if the stove
malfunctions. If the pilot turns off frequently,
call your dealer for information. To start the
pilot follow the directions below:
WARNING :
When lighting or re-lighting the
pilot, the door must be opened (see
page 19).
aOpen the door (see page 19 for details).
bPush the gas control knob in slightly and turn
it to the "OFF" position. The knob will not
turn from "ON" to "OFF" unless the knob is
depressed slightly. Wait five minutes to let
any gas that may have accumulated inside
the firebox escape. If you smell leaking gas,
follow the directions on the cover "IF YOU
SMELL GAS".
cTurn the gas control knob to the "PILOT"
position and press the knob in, this will allow
gas to flow to the pilot light. Press the
button on the pilot igniter repeatedly until
you see the pilot light.

Yearly Service Procedure
Warning: Failure to inspect and maintain the heater may lead to improper combustion and a potentially dangerous
1Check the pilot flame. It should engulf approximately 3/8” of the top of the thermocouple (see illustration below).
If it does not, contact your dealer for service.
2Shut off gas to the heater by turning the gas control knob to “OFF” (see step A under “Starting the Pilot” on page
22). Let the heater cool for 15 minutes. Open the door (see page 19).
3Remove the log set and embers (see page 20 - NOTE: the log set is fragile). If any log is cracked or
deteriorated, replace it when re-installing. Check the logs for sooting. If excessive sooting is found, the heater
will require adjustment. Contact your dealer.
4Clean the burner pan (especially the burner holes) and inspect the following:
•Check for burner for cracks, warps, or other damage.
•Check the firebox and area around the pilot to make sure there is no warping or damage.
If any problem is found, discontinue use and contact your dealer for service.

How this Heater Works
Warning This heater was designed with safety as the primary concern. Many of the components
inside this heater are for safety purposes. Therefore, only certified gas service
technicians should service this heater.
What Turns the Main Burners On and Off
This heater uses a millivolt system to control its operation (a millivolt is a very small amount of
electricity). The thermopile and thermocouple generate electricity when heated by the pilot flame.
This electricity is used to operate the gas valve. Without enough electricity, the gas valve will not turn
on. That is why when starting the pilot the gas control knob has to be pressed in long enough for the
thermocouple to heat up and generate enough electricity. The thermopile provides power for the
ON/OFF switch, remote control, or thermostat (see the illustration below). Because the thermopile
generates the electricity needed to turn the heater on and off, this heater can be operated when the
power is out (although the blower will not run).
When heated, the thermopile
generates electricity (a very small
amount measured in "Millivolts").
This electricity is
used to operate the
main burners.
The main burners
are switched on and
off using the
electricity generated
by the thermopile.
The ON/OFF switch,
remote control, or
thermostat control
the circuit to the main
burner.
ON
MAIN BURNER
OFF
What Prevents Gas Buildup
•This appliance utilizes a high-technology gas valve in conjunction with a pilot flame to ensure no gas
builds up inside the firebox.
•The thermocouple (next to the pilot) senses when the pilot flame is lit. If the pilot flame goes out, this
thermocouple no longer generates electricity, causing the gas valve to automatically shut off all gas to
the heater, preventing the pilot or burner from spilling gas into the firebox.
Pilot Flame
The pilot flame is a time-proven
component that eliminates the possibility
of gas buildup inside the firebox.
Gas Valve
This high-technology valve automatically
shuts off all gas if it does not receive a signal
from the thermocouple. If any component is
damaged or sensing a malfunction, or if the
wiring is damaged, it will shut off all gas.
External Shut Off Valve
This valve is placed on the gas line
to shut off gas to the appliance
during maintenance procedures.
Thermocouple
The thermocouple generates a small
amount of electricity. If the pilot flame
goes out, the gas valve automatically
shuts off all gas.
Ceramic Glass
The glass in your heater is the most
durable glass available. It has been
tested to be extremely resistant to
breakage from temperature changes.
