Do NOT use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualied service technician

to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

D. Appliance Certication

This appliance is design certied by Omni International under the ANSI Z21.60b-2004 or CSA 2.26b-2004, Decora-

tive Appliances for Installation in Solid-fuel Burning Fireplaces. Installation and the provisions for combustion

and ventilation air must conform to the National Fuel Gas

Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.

E. Gas Supply Connection

A 3/8 in. ared tting has been installed on the gas valve inlet at the factory. Ensure ttings are of the appropriate size

and type on the gas line connection. If the tubing has to be

cut to length be sure to use the proper cutting and aring

tool. Also, be careful not to crimp the tubing while bending. If the tubing becomes crimped, do not use for installation.

Gas resistant pipe compound must be used on all threaded male connections to ensure a tight seal.

F. Gas Pressure

Proper input pressures are required for optimum appliance performance. Gas line sizing requirements need to be made following NFPA51.

WARNING

Fire Risk

Explosion Risk

High pressure will damage valve.

• Disconnect gas supply piping BEFORE

pressure testing gas line at test pressures above 1/2 psig.

• Close the manual shutoff valve BEFORE pressure testing gas line at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig.

• Gas Supply Pressure: Minimum inlet gas supply pressure must be 7.0 in. W.C. for natural gas or 11 in. W.C. for LP gas for the purpose of input adjustment. Maximum inlet gas pressure must not exceed 10.5 in. W.C. for natural gas or 13 in. W.C. for LP gas. The gas line supplying the

appliance must be sufcient size to furnish the appropriate

supply pressure to the appliance while operating in the

“High” setting.

• Pressure tap screws must be closed before turning gas on to the appliance.

• Gas Line Pressure Test: Perform pressure test according to state and local code (if pressure exceeds 1/2 in. psi (3.5 kPa)) before appliance is connected. Be sure to release air pressure from the gas line before connection is made to the appliance. Excessive pressure will damage the gas control and may cause a gas leak.

• Gas Leak Test: Make sure the gas connections are tight. Turn on the gas and coat each joint with a non-corrosive gas leak check solution. Air bubbles will form indicating any leaks. DO NOT USE A FLAME OR ANY TYPE OF IGNITION SOURCE TO CHECK FOR LEAKS. All leaks must be corrected before proceeding with installation.

• The appliance must only be installed in a solid-fuel burning

replace with the ue damper clamped open according

to Tables 1 and 2. The replace must be constructed of non-combustible material.

• The minimum permanent free opening (in square inches)

that must be provided by the replace chimney or damper to vent the ue gases is provided in Tables 1 and 2. If the free opening is smaller than the specied area, do not use

this appliance.

• The damper must be removed or xed in a manner in

which will secure it open. Some jurisdictions require the damper to be removed or permanently welded fully open. Check with state and local codes.

• Be sure that the chimney is completely unobstructed to

ensure proper ventilation of ue gases including carbon

monoxide (CO). CO (a poisonous gas) is tasteless, odorless, colorless and undetectable without proper equipment.

• Refer to Table 3 to determine minimum replace opening

requirements before proceeding.

Hearth & Home Technologies • Grand Oak Gas Log Sets • 4004-299 Rev H • 05/08

G. Negative Pressure

Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air avail-

able for the replace to operate properly. Causes for this

imbalance include:

• Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.).

• Range hoods.

• Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water heaters and other combustion appliances.

• Clothes dryers.

• Loc a ti on o f r et u rn -a i r v en t s t o f ur n ac e or ai r conditioning.

• Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system.

• Upper level air leaks: recessed lighting, attic hatch opening, duct leaks.

Thermocouple

The replace venting system is designed and constructed to develop a positive ow adequate to remove ue gases to the outside atmosphere. See replace installation instructions.

A spillage test must be made before the installed appliance is left with the consumer.

• Close all doors and windows in the home.

• Light the log set (see Lighting Instructions).

• After three minutes, test with a smoke match, smoke candle, stick incense or cigarette 1 in. below the top of the opening (lintel) moving across the full width. If spillage (smoke down into the room) occurs, it will most likely be near the top, outside corners.

Possible cures if spilling occurs:

• The damper needs to be opened further.

• The replace opening needs to be reduced by adding a

drop panel across the top under the lintel.

• The air supply from outdoors needs to be increased. Open the outside air kit if the appliance is so equipped, or crack open a door or window.

• If necessary, seek expert advice. Do not operate this

appliance.
