IMPORTANT:
Please Review the Following Carefully
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off some
expansion and/or contraction noises during the start up or cool
down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat
exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your gas fireplace to give off some odor the
first time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and
any undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated - open all
windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Vermont Castings Majestic
Products fireplace for a least six (6) hours the first time you use
it. If optional fan kit has been installed, place fan in the "OFF"
position during this time.
Safety Devices
Adequate combustion and ventilation air must be provided. The flow of combustion and ventilation air MUST
NOT be obstructed.
Provide adequate clearances around the air opening
into the combustion chamber; and adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and proper operation. NEVER
obstruct the front opening of the heater or cover the top
and bottom louvres (grilles).
These heaters are equipped with a pilot system featuring an Oxygen Depletion Sensor (O.D.S.) shut-off
device. All unvented heaters are required to have this
system. The O.D.S. pilot will shut down the heater
when there is not enough fresh air available.
Report any parts damaged in shipment to your dealer.
Description
The UVC vent-free heaters are unique in featuring two
catalytic filters and a frame window with glass that actually
clean room air as well as give excellent zone heating.
The UVS vent-free heaters use a frame window with
screen mesh that does not use any catalytic filters.
Each model is available as Natural or Propane gas,
equipped with a standing pilot.

Mantels
Depending on the width of the mantel it may be installed higher or lower from the combustion chamber
opening. This also applies to the distance between the
mantel leg (if installed) and the fireplace. Refer to Figures 3a and 3b for correct mounting heights and widths
for combustible mantels and mantel legs.
Noncombustible mantels and legs may be installed at
any height above the appliance opening.
When using paint or lacquer to finish the
mantel, such paint or lacquer must be heat
resistant to prevent discoloration.
Hearth Extension
A hearth extension in front of heater is recommended
but not required.
Planning
Planning the installation is an important first step: it will
save time and money later in the actual installation. In
planning the installation, consider:
1. Where the heater will be located.
2. All components needed to complete the
project.
Mounting the Heater
The heater should only be mounted on the following
surfaces:
• A flat combustible (burnable) surface.
• A raised wooden platform.
• A concrete block or other solid object placed be
neath each of the four corners of the heater.
To mount the heater:
1. Choose unit location.
2. Place unit in position and secure to floor with 1
screws, or nails. The holes to secure the unit to the
floor are located just behind the bottom louvre on the
left and right hand side of the unit.
3. Frame in heater with a header across the top. It is
important to allow for finished face when setting the
depth of the frame.
4. Attach heater to frame using adjustable frame drywall
strips (located behind access door for shipping). Preset
depth to suit facing material (adjustable to 1/2" , 5/8" or
3/4" depths). (Fig. 4)
5. Use existing screws in side of unit to attach drywall
strip. Measure from face of heater to face of drywall
strip to determine final depth. (Fig. 4)

Framing
Framing can take place before or after the heater is set
in place. The framing should be positioned to accommodate the wall covering and facing material. Framing
material should be 2x4 or heavier. Framing headers
may rest on top of heater. (Refer to Page 4, Figures 1
and 2 for heater and framing dimensions.)
Insulating for Cold Climates
When a heater is installed in a chase or an outside wall,
the enclosure should be insulated like any other wall
of the home. Insulation should be installed under the
heater and on the inside of the exterior walls. (Fig. 5)
NOTE: Insulating for cold climates is strictly a recommendation and not a requirement.
Insulation
Insulation
methods
shown are
optional for
cold climate,
not a requirement for unit
operation.
Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are
certified without deration from elevations up to
4,500 feet (1,370m) above sea level.
Nuisance outages may occur at altitudes above
4,500 feet (1,370m) if dirt, dust, lint and/or cobwebs are allowed to accumulate on burner and/or
ODS pilot. Monthly inspection and cleaning is
recommended for altitudes above 4,500 feet
(1,370m)
For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m), installations must be in accordance with the current
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or local codes having
jurisdiction.
The installation of your Majestic Fireplaces roomheater must conform with local codes, or in the
absence of local codes, with National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 — latest edition. (EXCEPTION: Do not derate this appliance for altitude.
Maintain the manifold pressure at 3.5 inches w.c.
for Natural Gas and 10 inches w.c. for LP gas.)
Gas Supply Pressures
This heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve
during any pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.45
kPa).
The heater 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 psig (3.45 kPa).
Connect the Gas Line
If gas piping from the source to the heater location has
not been accomplished, install the required pipe. Consult local plumbing code to assure proper pipe size.
The gas pipeline can be brought in through the right or
left side of the heater, as well as the bottom. Knockouts
are provided at convenient locations to allow for the gas
pipe installation and testing of any gas connection. It is
most convenient to bring the gas line in from the right
side, as this allows fan installation or removal without
disconnecting the gas line.
NOTE: The gas line connection can be made with
properly tinned 3/8" copper tubing, 1/2" rigid pipe or an
approved flex connector, then reduced to 3/8" to the
heater. Because some municipalities have some additional local codes, it is always best to consult your local
authority. Consult the current National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

First Firing
Upon completing the gas line connection, a small
amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting unit
with pilot light, it will take a few minutes to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is complete, the
pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the
instruction manual. Subsequent lightings of the heater
will not require such purging.
When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight
odor for awhile. This is due to paint and lubricants used
in the manufacturing process. After each lighting, vapor
may condense and fog the glass; this moisture disappears within a few minutes of burning.

Maintenance
Burner and Burner Compartment
It is important to keep the burner and the burner
compartment clean. At least once per year the logs and
lava rock/ember material should be removed and the
burner compartment vacuumed and wiped out. Remove
and replace the logs as per the instructions in this
manual.
Always handle the logs with care as they are fragile
and may also be hot if the fireplace has been in
use.
FK24 Fan Assembly
The fan unit requires periodic cleaning. At least once
per month in the operating season, open the lower
louvre panels and wipe or vacuum the area around the
fan to remove any build up of dust or lint.
Cleaning the Standing Pilot
Control System
The burner and control system consists of:
• main burner • pilot burner
• gas orifice • thermopile
• combination millivolt gas valve
Most of these components may require only an occasional checkup and cleaning and some may require adjustment. If repair is necessary, it should be performed
by a qualified technician.
In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly,
turn off the gas to the unit, remove the window frame
panel and logs exposing the burner and pilot assembly.
Clean all foreign materials from the top of the burner.
Check to make sure that burner parts are clean. Visually inspect pilot. Brush or blow away any dust or lint
accumulation If pilot orifice is plugged, disassembly
may be required to remove any foreign material from
the orifice or tubing.
To obtain proper operation, it is imperative that the pilot
and burner's flame characteristics are steady, not lifting
or floating.
Typically, the top 1/8" of the thermopile should be engulfed in the pilot flame. (Fig. 19)
Pilot Assembly

Fig. 19 Proper pilot flame height.
Cleaning Catalytic Filters
(UVC Only)
The catalytic filters require cleaning at least once a year
to work effectively.
To clean catalytic filters:
1. From inside the combustion area, remove the 4 hex
nuts holding the filter; lower filter down and out.
2. Clean the outer surface of the filter with the brush
attachment of your vacuum sweeper to remove loose
dirt.
3. Submerge the filter in a mild soapy water solution,
then rinse thoroughly with distilled or deionized
water.
4. Replace in heater when dry.
5. Repeat with second filter.
