INSTALLATION (GAS SUPPLY)
ONLY PERSONS LICENSED TO WORK WITH GAS PIPING MAY MAKE THE NECESSARY GAS CONNECTION TO
THIS APPLIANCE. YOU ARE NOW READY TO HOOK UP THE GAS SUPPLY. BE SURE GAS PLUMBING
INSTRUCTIONS AND ALL PROVINCIAL AND LOCAL CODES ARE CAREFULLY FOLLOWED. USE APPROVED
FLEXIBLE GAS CONNECTIONS OR RIGID PIPING, DEPENDING ON PROVINCIAL AND LOCAL CODES, TO
ATTACH BURNER TO GAS SUPPLY. BE SURE TO USE PROPER SIZE GAS SUPPLY LINE. CAREFULLY CHECK
ALL CONNECTIONS WITH A SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION FOR GAS LEAKS. EACH INSTALLATION MUST
CONFORM TO ALL LOCAL, PROVINCIAL AND NATIONAL CODES. REFER TO THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE,
LOCAL ZONING AND CODE AUTHORITIES FOR DETAILS ON INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS.
EXISTING GAS SUPPLY
Before interrupting the existing gas supply it is recommended that the following be checked.
♦ Shut down all gas appliances and carry out a pressure test to insure there are no existing leaks on the system.
♦ Before connecting the appliance to the gas supply line, double check that the appliance you have purchased is
designed for the gas type you are using. The gas type markings are located on the certification label and also
on the appliance’s gas valve.
♦ Check the gas pressure to insure you will be able to supply the minimum inlet pressure for the appliance (see
page 12).
♦ Check your pipe sizing to insure sufficient volume will be supplied to the appliance.
GAS SUPPLY INSTALLATION
Provide adequate clearance for proper installation and checking of the gas connections.
Have your gas supplier or a qualified gas fitter run a gas supply line into the gas fireplace. The line must be
properly sized and fitted according to the installation codes. Up stream of the appliance supply connection, the
fitter shall provide an easily accessible manual shut-off valve.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). The appliance must be isolated
from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). Failure to do so will damage the
appliance’s gas valve. Such damage is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
Check for proper gas supply pressure by loosening the set-screw on inlet pressure tap (marked IN) on the gas
valve with a small flat tip or Phillips screw driver and placing a test gauge on the tap.
The minimum permissible gas supply pressure is 5.0 in. w.c. (1.24 kPa) for natural gas and 12.1 in. w.c. (3.00 kPa)
for propane. Maximum gas supply pressure should never exceed 14.0 in. w.c. (3.48 kPa) or 1/2 psi. for both
natural gas and propane.
BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE PRESSURE TAP SET-SCREW AFTER CHECKING THE PRESSURE. CHECK
ALL GAS CONNECTIONS FOR GAS LEAKS.

FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS ON PAGE 19.
(Note: LP gases do not vent upward). Then follow steps 2
and 3 to establish pilot.
2. Press slightly and turn control knob counterclockwise to
PILOT position; depress control knob and light pilot by
repeatedly pressing the sparker. Venting of air may take
place at the pilot prior to the flow of fuel gases. Once flame
is established, hold knob depressed for approximately 60
sec.
3. Release knob. If the pilot will not light or the control knob
does not pop up when released, turn the control knob to
OFF and call your service technician or gas supplier. If the
pilot should go out, turn the control knob to OFF position and
repeat steps 1, 2 and 3.
Note: this will allow reset of INTERLOCK for proper lighting
of pilot.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
♦ FIREBOX: You may hear some cracking or ticking
sounds on start-up and shut-down. This is due to the
expansion and contraction of the steel in the firebox.
♦ BLOWER: We use high efficiency fans in our appli-
ances. You may hear a whirring sound when the fan
turns on. This will decrease or increase depending on
the speed setting of the fan.

IMPORTANT - WHITE MINERAL DEPOSITS
One of the byproducts of the combustion process in a gas appliance, is a mineral which can show up
as a white film on the ceramic glass of the viewing door. The composition of the deposit varies
widely from various locations and also from time to time in the same location. You may have the
problem for a time and then not see it for many months when it will reappear in your area. It seems
this is associated with the varying sulfur content of the gas. We have discussed this problem with
ceramic glass manufacturers and they cannot give us a definitive answer to this problem. Dealers
have tried various cleaning products with varying results. The following recommendations will not
guarantee results in your particular case.
1. Clean the glass regularly as soon as you notice the buildup (white film). If the film is left for a
longer period of time, build up will bake on. It is then much harder, if not impossible, to remove.
2. NEVER use an abrasive cleaner on the ceramic glass. Any abrasion of the surface has the
immediate effect of lessening the strength of the glass. An emulsion type cleaner is
recommended.
3. Use a soft damp cloth to apply the cleaner. Dry the glass with a soft, dry, preferably cotton cloth.
Most paper towels and synthetic materials are abrasive to ceramic glass and should be avoided.
4. Our dealers have had good results from the products listed below. We can not however
guarantee the results of these products.
a) BRASSO b) POLISH PLUS by KEL KEM
c) COOK TOP CLEAN CREME by ELCO d) WHITE OFF by RUTLAND
NOTE: This is a problem beyond Blaze King’s control and is
not covered under warranty.
NOTICE: COLD WEATHER OPERATION
When using any gas appliance (LPG or NAT Gas) water is a byproduct of the combustion process. Under normal
conditions this moisture is expelled through the vent into the atmosphere and does not cause any harm. In extreme cold
weather however the vapor may condense and freeze on any exposed surface it comes into contact with. This can cause
a problem by restricting or blocking the vent, particularly with direct vent wall terminations as the exhaust is only a few
inches away from the outside wall surface. What happens to the moisture after it leaves the vent cannot be controlled by
the manufacturer. To extend the vent further out from the wall can sometimes but not always be an advantage. Extending
the vent out from the wall can present other design problems such as ice falling from the eaves above. It is the
homeowners responsibility to ensure that there is not an excessive build-up of ice on the termination.
CAUTION: WHEN OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE DURING COLD WEATHER YOU MUST FREQUENTLY CHECK
THE EXHAUST CAP FOR EXCESSIVE ICE BUILD UP.
If the appliance begins to operate abnormally—Poor flame pattern, shutting down etc, this could be an indicator of ice build
up.

♦ Check the safety system of the gas valve by lighting the unit,
with the door open and blocking the flame to the thermocouple, the valve should act to shut the gas off in approximately
30 seconds.
♦ VENTING:
1. Check the venting system for any signs of corrosion.
2. Remove the vent termination and check the inside of the
vent by shining a light down the pipe.
3. Inspect pipe seams and joints and ensure they are still tight.

• Check for defective piezo.
• Check for defective/cracked spark electrode.
⇒ With the door removed, try lighting the pilot with a match.
⇒ Note: If there is no gas or air coming out of the pilot and there is gas pressure
to the appliance, the pilot orifice may be blocked or the gas valve maybe
defective.
⇒ Check to see if the pilot flame is large enough to reach and surround the
thermocouple. If the flame is too small, check for correct gas supply pressure. If
pressure is good, adjust the pilot flame size with the adjustment screw on the
valve. If the flame cannot be adjusted, there might be some debris obstructing
the pilot orifice.
⇒ Check for correct millivolts at the thermopile. The thermopile should generate at
least 250 mV.
