IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
CAUTION - HOT! HOT! HOT!
This appliance is a HEATING appliance and it does become very hot in operation.
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, DO NOT PLACE any object, furniture, draperies or other item LESS THAN 36”/90 cm IN
FRONT OF THE GLASS OF THE FIREPLACE.
CHILDREN AND PETS
Radiant heat can heat surfaces such as the surround and trims of the replace to temperatures that, although approved
safe, can be quite uncomfortable to touch - particularly for children and pets. Children and pets should always be
supervised when in the room where the appliance is located. Remote control handset should be kept out of reach of
children. In the presence of children, we STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you install in front of the replace: a re screen or,
to protect young toddlers, a “hearth gate”.
HOT SURFACES
Be aware that, although safe, some combustible materials and
nishes, even though installed at listed clearances may, over time,
discolor, warp or show cracks.
Convective heat will exit the unit and travel up the wall surface if not
impeded. Protruding mantels and projections can help direct the
heat away from the wall. AVOID placing heat sensitive items such as
televisions, paintings, decorations, etc. above replaces or near the
edge of protrusions unless appropriate.
Do not place furniture or other
objects within 36” of the replace
glass.

USER INFORMATION
WARMTH AND BEAUTY HOW IT WORKS
The Element4 replaces are direct vent replaces and, as such, the intake and exhaust are both handled through the vent pipe.
The replace also provides convection air to your room. Figure 1 (Lucius 140 Room Divider shown) shows one of the unique
features of the Element4 replaces - its use of warm, convection air ow.
Other replaces have louvered metal boxes around them to keep temperatures under control. The Element4 replaces use your
enclosing walls, or chase, to guide this warm air. This design, therefore, requires the use of non-combustible wall materials and
gives you beauty for your eort.
When the air within the chase is warmed by the replace, it rises and exits through the Convection Air Outlet. This air is then
replaced by room air which enters the chase just above the replace glass and through the Wall Access Door. As the exiting warm
air cools, it falls to the oor where it's drawn into the inlets and the cycle repeats.
The replace provides the inlet for room air as part of its design; you provide the warm air outlet as part of your design.
See the ENCLOSING the FIREPLACE section of this manual for more information.

CLEARANCES
The Lucius 140 replaces require non- combustible framing. These
are NOT zero-clearance replaces. All clearances to combustible
AND non-combustible materials MUST be maintained as described
in this manual.
LOCATING THE FIREPLACE
When selecting a location for the replace:
• Ensure that all minimum clearances to combustible AND noncombustible materials are met.
• Provide adequate clearances for servicing.
• Consider venting dimensions (rise, run and number of
elbows, etc.) when selecting the location for your replace.
• Locate the appliance out of trac and away from furniture
and draperies.
• Keep the location free of electrical, plumbing or other
heating/air conditioning ducting.
PLACING THE FIREPLACE
The base upon which the appliance rests must be sturdy, level
and built to safely support at least 500 pounds/230 kilograms.
The base may be the oor or a purpose built raised platform (e.g.
wood,metal). The base upon which the replace is installed must
have a 25 in.2/161 cm2 opening centered in it to allow the free ow
of air to the replace above unless placed on a oor. See below
MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
• The appliance is approved with a minimum clearance to
combustible materials of 26”/660 mm to the top, 11”/2 80
mm on all sides and 4”/100 mm to the bottom. Any spacer
or framing used closer than this dimension must be noncombustible (e.g. metal).
• The minimum clearance to non-combustible material is
2”/5 0 mm. (See Figures 7 - 18, clearance shown in red)
• The minimum distance from the bottom of the appliance to
the room ceiling is 72”/1830 mm. (See Figure 21, Table 2)
• When installing the venting the following clearances to
combustible materials MUST be maintained:
a. 3”/76 mm above any horizontal venting
b. 1”/25 mm to venting sides or below any horizontal
venting
• Non-combustible materials may be installed to a zero
clearance, to the outer faces of the appliance outer frame.
However, they must not cover (or prevent the removal of)
the glass panels or the control equipment.
• Do not block or restrict the convection gap between the
appliance rebox and the appliance outer frame (top of
glass panels).
The feet on the appliance are designed to sit on a at platform,
however the appliance must not be installed on any combustible
material other than wood. For example, carpet or linoleum bases
are not permitted.
Do not place anything between the bottom of the rebox and
the bottom of the feet. Ensure that the lineset (which includes the
gas valve, electrical wiring, and gas lines) does not impede the full
operation of the relief doors.
The minimum clearances (air spaces) to combustible materials
must be maintained. It is of the greatest importance that the
replace and vent system be installed only in accordance with
these instructions.
Clearance to combustibles summary:
Back: 11”/280 mm
Sides: 11”/280 mm
Top: 26”/660 mm
Floor: 4”/100 mm
The Floor dimension (above) is measured from the bottom of the
rebox. This allows the feet to sit on the oor giving adequate
clearance in their lowest position.

MANTELS
The graph in Figure 19 shows a range of allowable depths and heights for a combustible mantel installation.
As shown, the minimum allowable mantel height above the replace opening is 2”/50 mm with a 1”/25 mm deep mantel.
The maximum mantel depth is 12”/300 mm at a minimum height above the replace opening of 13”/330 mm.
All of the mantel height/depth combinations fall in between these extremes in accordance with Figure 19.
Mantels made of non-combustible material are allowed inside these dimensions but they will be subjected to elevated
temperatures and may become too hot to touch.
A typical completed installation with mantel is shown in Figure 20.

GAS and ELECTRIC
INSTALLING THE GAS LINE
Correctly size and route the gas supply line from the supply regulator to the area where the appliance is to be installed as per
requirements outlined in the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54 (USA) or CAN/CSA-B149.1 (Canada).
Never use galvanized or plastic pipe unless specied for use with gas. Refer to the table below for proper sizing of the supply gas
line. Gas lines must be routed, constructed and made of materials that are in strict accordance with local codes and regulations. A
qualied plumber or gas tter should 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 trap, and other criteria. The sizing and/or installing of gas piping should only be performed
by a qualied plumber or gastter.
The gas control inlet accepts a ⁄” NPT tting.
This replace arrives from the factory for use with natural gas. See Appendix Three for LP (propane) conversion instructions.

VENTING
CONFIGURING THE VENTING
The replaces in this manual are direct vent replaces that use a co-axial or “pipe within a pipe” venting system. The outer “pipe” or vent
conducts fresh, outside air into the replace and the inner vent carries the exhaust outside. This system, which can run either horizontally
through a side wall or vertically through the roof, produces an ecient system because conditioned building air is not used for combustion.
All of the following points apply to every installation:
• The maximum allowable rise is 36’/11.0 m and the maximum allowable run is 9’10”/3.0 m but not in combination.
• The minimum vent conguration is a 19”/0.5 m vertical rise to a 90° elbow plus a 19”/0.5 m horizontal run to a wall termination.
• Only the 5” x 8” direct vent components from M&G DuraVent are approved for use with these replaces. Any of the M&G
DuraVent 5” x 8” direct vent components suitable for the local condition are permitted. Please visit www.europeanhome.com/
qr-support or via the QR code below for installation instructions.
• This replace is shipped with a North American venting adapter. It MUST attach to the vent collar of the replace.
• All venting measurements are taken from the top center of the vent collar on the top of the replace and all congurations
must fall within the acceptable range of the venting charts.
• When using wall terminations no more than three vertically-oriented 45° or 90° elbows are permitted. See the HORIZONTAL
TERMINATIONS section.
• When using vertical terminations no more than four 90° elbows OR eight 45° elbows OR a combination totaling no more than
360 ‘elbow degrees’. For example, a combination of two 90° elbows and two 45° elbows is allowed (90° + 90° + 45°+ 45° equals
270°) but a combination of three 90° elbows and three 45° elbows is not allowed (the total equals 405°.) These elbows can be
installed either horizontally or vertically.
• A minimum clearance of 3”/75 mm must be maintained between combustible materials and the top of any horizontal vent
pipe surface; a minimum clearance of 1”/25 mm must be maintained between combustible materials and any other vent pipe
surface.
• The horizontal parts of the venting must be pitched up, away from the replace. For every 12” / 305 mm of horizontal run, the
venting must rise ¼” ⁄ 6.5 mm toward the termination. The venting must never run downward unless with the use of a power
vent.
• Whenever venting passes through a wall, an approved heat shield or ‘wall thimble’ must be installed.
• A power vent system is available and must be used for any venting conguration which is outside of the vent graphs.

• When using a wall-mounted termination, a maximum of 3 elbows (45° or 90°) may be used.
• For each second or third elbow:
- 20 ”/50 0 mm must be subtracted from the horizontal length allowance when using a 45° elbow
- 40”/1000 mm must be subtracted from the horizontal length allowance when using a 90° elbow
Example A: With a total rise of 6’6”/2.0 m and one horizontal 90° elbow, a total run of 13’2”/4.0 m is allowed.
Example B: If the rise is 8’2”/2.5 m then the run can be no longer than 14’10”/4.5 m.
Example C: If the run is 16’5”/5.0 m then the rise must be at least 9’10”/3.0 m.

ENCLOSING the FIREPLACE
When enclosing your Element4 replace the use of non-combustible building materials is REQUIRED.
Please read and understand the following.
COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
Materials that can catch re and burn are considered combustible. Any material that is made of, or faced with, wood, wood pulp,
paper, plastic or any other material that can catch re and burn is considered combustible. Even though these materials may have
been 'ame-proofed', made 're-resistant' or are 're-rated' they are considered combustible. Standard and Type X drywall are both
combustible.
NON-COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
A given material is said to be non-combustible when it cannot catch re and burn. For example, materials made entirely, or in
combinations, of, stone, brick, concrete, tile, steel, plaster or glass are considered non-combustible.
The table below shows a list of materials which, as of this writing, are reported by their manufacturers to be non-combustible (in
accordance with the ASTM E136 standard) AND approved for use around replaces.
Skamol Skamotec® 225 and Promat PROMATECT®-L are preferred products for enclosing replaces.

ENCLOSING the FIREPLACE
THE ENCLOSURE
A safe installation of your Element4 replace requires that four things be clearly understood.
1. Most important, these replaces are NOT zero-clearance replaces. Unlike zero-clearance replaces, there is not a metal box
around the Element4 replaces. With no metal box there are no louvers to distract your view of the re. However, we want the
cooling advantage of a metal box so your site-built, non-combustible enclosure will substitute.
2. Your replace enclosure must be made to act the way a metal replace box acts - letting room air in below and warm
convection air out above. The framing cannot interfere with the air ow. The inlet for the room air is part of the replace and
cannot be changed or adjusted. The convection air outlet is part of your enclosure design, is provided by you and MUST be
included. Note: The Convection Air Outlet must be installed in the same room as the replace and a space which ALWAYS ows air
into the room in which the replace is installed. The ow of convection air must NOT be blocked.
3. Since these are not zero-clearance replaces, the clearances and dimensions listed in the CLEARANCES section MUST be
maintained. Only the non-combustible wall, the mounting brackets and the venting may touch the replace. As previously
stated, nothing may be built closer than 2”/50 mm to the non-glass sides.
4. The controls will be mounted to your enclosure and below the burner. The controls are at the end of a 50”/1270 mm line set
and are to be mounted to the Wall Access Door which is included. The controls must be located for ease of physical access
(gas line, maintenance, etc.) as well as wireless signal (remote control) access. See the LOCATING THE CONTROLS and the MOUNTING THE
CONTROLS sections.
The combination of multiple glass sides and no zero-clearance box makes for a non-typical enclosure project. It may seem
straightforward to build the ‘rough opening’, set the replace then attach the wall. However, for most projects, it will be easier to
rst set the replace in position then enclose it with Skamol Skamotec® or Promat PROMATECT® building board.
ONLY non-combustible framing must be used to enclose these replaces.
In all cases, the framing/wall around these replaces must NOT be supported by the replace. The enclosing walls must be attached to
another structure which can bear their entire weight and the weight of any attachments to the walls such as TVs, shelves, artwork, etc.
When installing the replace against an existing nished wall, the wall MUST BE completely covered with Skamotec 225 or Promatect
building board. All clearances between the replace and wall MUST BE maintained.
CONVECTION AIR OPENING
A convection air outlet is always required. The opening size of the convection air outlet varies by replace model. Table 3, on page
21, shows the minimum total area required for the various models in this manual. The convection air outlet may take many forms and
must always allow the free ow of warm air up through the chase and out into the room in which the replace is installed. Shown
on the next page are a number of ways to design the convection air outlet into your project.

ENCLOSING the FIREPLACE
COLD CLIMATE INSULATION
For cold climate installations, it is especially important to insulate outside the chase cavity, between studs and under the oor on
which appliance rests, if oor is above ground level. Gas line holes and other openings should be lled with approved restop.
If the replace is being installed on a cement slab in cold climates, a sheet of plywood or a raised platform can be placed underneath
to prevent cold transferring to the replace and into the room. It also helps to tape the venting for maximum air tightness and to
caulk restops.
LOCATING THE CONTROLS
The control system for the Element4 replaces consist of three major components: the receiver, the transmitter and the gas valve.
The transmitter is the remote control by which you operate the replace. The receiver and the gas valve are at one end of a line set
which is approximately 50”/1270 mm long. The other end of the line set is connected to the approximate center of the rebox.
The Wall Access Door is provided with your replace and is designed to hold the receiver and gas valve. When locating the Wall
Access Door you must consider four types of access:
1. Air access. Room air must be allowed to ow freely through the door perforations, up through the site-built platform
and above, through the enclosing replace chase.
2. Line set access. The line set is to be unwrapped which allows the controls to be placed within a radius of
approximately 50”/1270 mm from the center of the replace, as the cable runs.
3. Physical access. The gas valve/receiver must be readily accessible for maintenance, etc.
4. Wireless access. The signals from the transmitter (handheld, remote control) must get to the receiver, inside the
access door.
Note that if the Access Door is not used its equivalent in air (25 square inches) as well as line set, physical and wireless access must
be provided.
MOUNTING THE CONTROLS
Do not place the controls above the level of the burner. If the replace is to set directly on the oor, the controls must be placed outside the
non-combustible zone or insulated from the heat from the replace.
The Wall Access Door requires a rough opening of 9⁄”/250 mm high by 6⁄”/175 mm wide. The door should be mounted with
the hinge on the left side or with the hinge side down.
- Carefully cut the black tie wraps which hold the line set to the bottom of the replace then carefully unwrap the line set. Lay
the line set out towards the location of the Access Door. Do not kink the lineset and do not bend to a radius of less than 2”/50
mm. See Figure 34.
- Remove the four bolts holding the white door/frame cover to the frame. Separate the frame and cover then mount the Access
Door frame to the rough opening as shown in Figure 35.
- Replace the white door/frame cover onto the frame and secure it with the four bolts.
- Fit the gas valve tab into the bracket on the Access Door frame then tighten the bolt through the mounting bosses . See
Figures 36 and 37.
- Set the receiver into the Access Door bracket as shown in Figure 38 and connect the AC adapter.
When mounted, the Access Door should look like that shown in Figure 39.

OPERATING the FIREPLACE
TEST FIRE
Prior to being placed into operation, the replace should be test-red in stages to ensure that all components are in good working
order. This replace has a 2nd thermocouple which senses the main burner ame. The system will turn itself o if the system does
not sense the 2nd thermocouple output within 20 seconds after the main valve opens.
Note that a single, long beep indicates that the 2nd thermocouple is still hot enough to produce electricity at the receiver which will
not allow the replace to start. Allow time for the 2nd thermocouple to cool down before attempting a start. The system is ready to
start when pressing the ON/OFF button produces a response from the valve.
1. Start the replace without the hearth panel in place and with the front glass o. Ensure that the pilot ame both heats the
primary thermocouple and lights the main burner. For safety, a post-purge delay is built into the system. Subsequent start
attempts MUST NOT take place for at least ve (5) minutes.
2. Start the replace with the hearth panel in place and with all of the glass panels xed correctly in place. Ensure that the
main burner ames engulf the 2nd thermocouple and the replace stays lit for at least 1 full minute. If the system turns itself
o after 20 seconds install the required media (next section) and return here. Installing the re media will help with the
ame around the 2nd thermocouple. Subsequent start attempts MUST NOT take place for at least ve (5) minutes.
3. Start the replace with the media installed. If the system turns itself o after 20 seconds, rearrange the media to produce
a good ame at the 2nd thermocouple. This step may have to be repeated several times before the media is in the best
place for consistent operation. A single, long beep indicates that the 2nd thermocouple is still too hot to start the ignition
sequence. Allow time for the 2nd thermocouple to cool down. Once the system stays lit for at least one full minute, turn
the replace o, x the glass panels in place and operate the replace for at least 45 minutes to ensure the system works
properly when heated.
THE FIRST FIRE
When the replace is rst heated, an odor may be given o by the hot metal. This is normal and is a result of the ‘burn o’ of the
lubricants and sealants used when manufacturing the replace. We recommend that you open the nearby windows for extra
ventilation and then operate the replace for at least four hours.
When the glass is cold, some condensation may appear on the glass after lighting the replace. This is normal and the
condensation will disappear as the glass warms.
During this rst re, examine the ame for appearance and quality. Examine the burner media for sooting. The ames should look
like those shown in Figure 43.
After this burn-o period, turn o the replace and let it cool completely to room temperature and clean both sides of the glass as
described in the MAINTENANCE section.
Since it is a metal replace, the heat-up and cool-down cycles may produce some noises caused by the expansion and contraction
of these metals. The premium materials and build quality of your replace will keep these sounds to a minimum.

Step 3.
Attach the vacuum glass clamp to the center of the glass and lift the glass up into
the clearance notch.
When the glass panel is raised into the clearance notch there is enough clearance
to swing the lower edge of the glass panel over the stando frame. See Figure 47.
When the glass panel is outside of the stando frame then lower the glass panel
out of the clearance notch and carefully, and securely, set the panel aside.
Step 4.
Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the other glass panels.
CLEANING THE GLASS
The glass should be cleaned as necessary with a replace glass
cleaner. We recommend Stove Bright® Gas Appliance Glass
Cleaner by Forrest Paint Co. It is available through your retailer.
Follow the instructions for use and do not clean the glass when it
is hot! If the glass becomes coated with deposits which cannot be
removed it must be replaced.

THERMOCOUPLE MAINTENANCE
The Element4 replaces have two thermocouples; one next to
the pilot and one opposite the pilot side of the main burner. The
completeness and operation of both must be checked. A qualied
installer must conrm that both thermocouples are in place and
not damaged. While checking the thermocouple, please ensure
that the ignitor rod is not cracked as well.
VENT MAINTENANCE
The following venting system inspection by a qualied service
technician is recommended every six months:
1. Inspect for excessive condensation, e.g. water droplets
forming in the inner lining and subsequently dripping out
of the joints. This can cause corrosion in the system.
2. Check for corrosion in areas exposed to the elements.
Where rust spots or holes have appeared, these must be
immediately replaced.
3. Ensure that there is no foreign material in the vents. Survey
by removing the cap and shining a light down the vent.
4. Check all joints and pipes to make sure that nothing has
been disturbed or loosened.
