ELATION Fireplace Insert 3
GENERAL INFORMATION
The ELATION fireplace insert is a high-efficiency free-standing gas appliance with a
maximum input rating of 25,000 Btu/h (7.3 kWh) with natural gas or 25,000 Btu/h (7.3 kWh)
with propane. It features an adjustable millivolt valve and a constant pilot. This means that you
can set the height of the flame with a control knob or with an optional remote control. An
optional wall thermostat is also available for automatic room temperature control. The valve is
also independent of any exterior electrical supply. Your appliance will therefore continue to
heat your house in the event of a power failure.
For increased efficiency, we have included a 130 CFM (3.68 m3/min) blower with speed control
and thermo-switch. Your blower will therefore turn itself on or off automatically if you desire.
Read these instructions and consult local building authorities before installing this appliance.
Install the unit and its venting system only as directed in these instructions.

OPERATION
BEFORE LIGHTING
1) Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified
service technician to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and
any gas control which has been under water.
2) Make sure that there are no obstructions in the air intake or venting system.
3) Clear the immediate area of combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable liquids
and vapours.
4) Make sure that the gas log is in its proper place.
THE FIRST FIRE:
During the first few hours of operation the appliance will release an odor. This is caused by the
burning off of residual oils used in the manufacturing process and by the curing of the high heat
paint. The ceramic glass window may require cleaning after this initial "burn in." Please read
the instructions on cleaning in the MAINTENANCE section before doing so.
The optional gold plated items must be
from your fingerprints may permanently etch the gold plating.
If the protective packaging that accompanied the gas log is still in place, follow the instructions
in the LOG PLACEMENT section.

LIGHTING PROCEDURE
WARNING: If you do not follow these lighting instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may
result causing property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
Open the pedestal cover front panel to reach the control.
Make sure the gas control knob is turned to the "off" position. If it is not, press knob slightly
and turn clockwise to the "off" position.
was in the on position you should wait 5 minutes before trying to re-light the stove.
• If you smell gas STOP and follow instructions on the COVER page.
• Push in and turn gas control knob counterclockwise to the "pilot" position.
• Press gas control knob in and hold. Immediately push the red igniter button repeatedly until
pilot flame ignites. Continue holding in the control knob for 5 to 10 seconds, then release it.
If the pilot flame goes out, repeat this step.
• Push and turn gas control knob counterclockwise to the "on" position.
Do not force the gas control knob. If the gas control

CAUTION: This insert is hot while in operation. Do not touch. Keep children, clothing and
flammable materials away.
WALL THERMOSTAT
To operate your ELATION using the wall thermostat, follow the lighting procedure and set the
gas control to the ON position. Simply set your wall thermostat to a comfortable temperature
and the insert will do the rest.
During the heating season, you do not have to touch the gas control valve. If you would like the
insert off for a while, just set the thermostat to its minimum setting. However if you do not
need the insert for quite some time, follow the procedure outlined in the SHUTDOWN section.
This will extinguish the pilot light as well.
SHUTDOWN
Push in and rotate the gas control knob clockwise to the "off" position. Do not force.
If you are going to perform any maintenance or cleaning, first allow the insert to cool
completely. Follow the instructions in the section on cleaning under MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS.
BLOWER
The blower control contains a variable speed switch and a thermal switch. When the insert is
operating, the thermal switch will turn on at 110° F, allowing the blower to operate . When the
insert cools to 90° F, the thermal switch turns off the blower in about 40 minutes. This prevents
the blower from operating when the insert is not in use.
The blower not only helps circulate air throughout the room, it also increases the heat output
and efficiency of the ELATION.
