PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
WATER VAPOR: A BY-PRODUCT OF UNVENTED ROOM HEATERS
Water vapor is a by-product of gas combustion. An unvented room heater produces approximately one (1) ounce (30ml) of water for every 1,000 BTUs (.3KWs) of gas input per hour. An unvented room heater is recommended as a supplemental heater (one room) rather than a primary heat source (an entire house). In most supplemental heat applications, the water vapor does not create a problem. In most applications, the water vapor enhances the low humidity atmosphere experienced during cold weather. The following steps will help ensure that water vapor does not become a problem.
1. Be sure the heater is sized properly for the application, including adequate combustion air and circulation air.
2. If high humidity is experienced, a dehumidifier may be used to help lower the water vapor content of the air.
3. Do not use an unvented room heater as the primary heat source.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
WARNING: This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction
unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air. Read the following instructions to insure proper fresh air for this and other fuel-burning appliances in your home:
Producing Adequate Ventilation
The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z 223.1, Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation. All spaces in homes fall into one of the three following ventilation classifications:
1. Unusually Tight Construction
2. Unconfined Space
3. Confined Space
The information on pages 6 through 8 will help you classify your space and provide adequate ventilation.
Confined and Unconfined Space
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1 defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfining space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms connected directly with the space in which the appliances are installed*, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.
This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation.
* Adjoining rooms are connecting only if there are doorless passageways or ventilation grills between them.
Unusually Tight Construction
The air that leaks around doors and windows may provide enough fresh air for combustion and ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually tight construction, you must provide additional fresh air.
6
Page 7
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:
a) walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of one
perm (6x10-11kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed and b) weather stripping has been added on windows that can be opened and doors and c) caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole plates
and floors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas
lines, and at other openings. If your home meets all of the three criteria above, you must provide additional fresh air. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors (page 8). If your home does not meet all of the three criteria above, proceed to "Determining Fresh-Air Flow For Heater Location" (below).
DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW FOR HEATER LOCATION
Determining if You Have a Confined or Unconfined Space Use this worksheet to determine if you have a confined or unconfined space. Space: Includes the room in which you will install heater plus any adjoining rooms with doorless passageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.
1. Determine the volume of the space Length×Width×Height= cu.ft. (volume of space) Example: Space size 20ft. (length) × 16ft. (width) × 8ft. (ceiling height) = 2560cu. ft. (volume of space) If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space.
2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.
(volume of space) ÷ 50 cu. ft. = (Maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)
Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space)?0 cu.ft.=51.2 or 51,200(maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)
3. Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances in the space.
Vent-free heater Gas water heater* Gas furnace
Vented gas heater
Gas heater logs
Other gas appliances* +
Total =
*Do not include direct-vent gas appliances. Direct-vent draws combustion air from the outdoors and vents to the outdoors.
Btu/Hr Btu/Hr
Btu/Hr Example: Btu/Hr Gas water heater 30,000 Btu/Hr Btu/Hr Vent-free heater + 26,000 Btu/Hr
Btu/Hr Total = 56,000 Btu/Hr
4. Compare the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support with the actual amount of Btu/Hr used.
Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support) Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used) Example: 51,200 Btu/Hr (maximum the space can support) 56,000 Btu/Hr (actual amount of Btu/Hr used)
The space in the above example is a confined space because the actual Btu/Hr used is more than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support. You must provide additional fresh air. Your options are as follows:
a) Rework worksheet, adding the space of an adjoining room. If the extra space provides an unconfined
space, remove door to adjoining room or add ventilation grills between rooms. See “Ventilation Air from
Outdoors,” page 8.
b) Vent room directly to the outdoors. See “Ventilation Air from Outdoors,” page 8.
c) Install a lower Btu/Hr heater, if lower Btu/Hr size makes room unconfined. If the actual Btu/Hr used is
less than the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support, the space is an unconfined space. You will need no
additional fresh air ventilation.
WARNING: If the area in which the heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an unconfined
Space or if the building is of unusually tight construction, provide adequate combustion and ventilation air by one of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.

Page 8
Ventilation Air From Inside Building
This fresh air would come from adjoining unconfined space.
When ventilating to an adjoining unconfined space, you
must provide two permanent openings: one within 12 inches
of the wall connecting the two spaces (see options 1 and 2,
Figure 2). You can also remove door into adjoining room
(see option 3, Figure 2). Follow the National Fuel Gas Code
NFPA 54/ANS Z223.1. Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and
Ventilation for required size of ventilation grills or ducts.
Ventilation Air From Outdoors
Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation grills or duct. You
must provide two permanent openings: one within 12 inches
of the ceiling and one within 12 inches of the floor. Connect
these items directly to the outdoors or spaces open to the
outdoors. These spaces include attics and crawl spaces.
Follow the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANS Z223.1,
Section 5.3. Air for Combustion and Ventilation for required
size of ventilation grills or ducts.
IMPORTANT: Do not provide openings for inlet or outlet air into attic if attic has a thermostat-controlled power vent. Heated air entering the attic will activate the power vent. Rework worksheet, adding the space of the adjoining unconfined space. The combined spaces must have enough fresh air to supply all appliances in both spaces.
INSTALLATION
NOTICE: This heater is intended for use as supplemental heat. Use this heater along with your primary heating
system. Do not install this heater as your primary heat source. If you have a central heating system, you may run your system's circulating blower while using heater. This will help circulate the heat throughout the house.

BUILT-IN FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
Built-in installation of this fireplace involves installing fireplace into a framed-in enclosure. This makes the front of the fireplace flush with wall.
IMPORTANT: Framing dimensions should allow for wall covering thickness and fireplace facing materials. Adjust rough opening size as necessary to maintain at least the minimum clearance requirements.
1. Frame in rough opening. Use dimensions shown in
Figure 7 and 8 for the rough opening. If installing in a
corner, use dimensions shown in Figure 9 for the rough
opening.
2. Carefully set fireplace in rough opening. Once in place
nail or screw the nailing brackets to the framing. See Figure 6 for nailing flanges position.
3. Attach gas line to fireplace. See "Connecting to Gas Supply," page 12.
4. Check all gas connections for leaks. See Checking Gas Connections, page 13.
IMPORTANT: When finishing your firebox, combustible materials such as wall board, gypsum board, sheet rock,
drywall, plywood, etc, must have 1” clearance to the sides and 3” to top of the firebox. The framing material may
touch the nailing flange stand-offs, but no material should be placed between the nailing flange stand-offs. Combustible materials should never overlap the firebox front facing.
recessed space, installer must attach brackets to top of fireplace
WARNING: Do not obstruct the upper and lower convection air passage areas to allow proper ventilation air
around the fireplace. Room air enters through the lower passage, is heated and exits at the upper passage.

CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY
WARNING: A qualified technician must connect heater to gas supply. Follow all local codes.
CAUTION: Never connect heater directly to the gas supply. This heater requires an external regulator
(not supplied). The external regulator between the gas supply and heater must be installed.
INSTALLATION ITEMS NEEDED
Before installing heater, make sure you have the items listed below:
· piping (check local codes)
· sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)
· equipment shutoff valve*
· test gauge connection**
· sediment trap
· tee joint
· pipe wrench
· flexible gas (check local code)
* A CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve with 1/8-inch NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase the optional CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve from your dealer.
WARNING: Never connect heater to private (non-utility) gas wells. This gas is commonly known as
wellhead gas.
The installer must supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 14 inches of water column for propane and between 5 and 10.5 inches of water column for natural gas. If you do not reduce incoming gas pressure, heater regulator damage could occur. Install external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in Figure 12. Pointing the vent down protects it from freezing rain or sleet (see Figure 13).
Figure 12- Gas Line Access Into Fireplace Cabinet
Figure 13 - External Regulator With Vent Pointing Down
12
Page 13
CAUTION: Use new black iron or steel pipe only. Internally tinned copper tubing may be used in certain
areas. Check your local codes. Use pipe of 1/2 inch diameter or greater to allow proper volume gas to heater. If pipe is too small, loss of pressure will occur. Installation must include an equipment shutoff valve, union, and plugged 1/8-inch NPT tap. Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must be upstream from heater (see Figure 14).
IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoff valve in an accessible location. The equipment shutoff valve is for
turning on or shutting off the gas to the appliance. Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male threads. This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged heater valves.
CAUTION: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to gas (PROPANE or NATURAL GAS).
We recommend that you install a sediment trap in a supply line as shown in Figure 13. Place sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in the piping system between fuel supply and heater. Place sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into heater controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed incorrectly, heater may not run properly.
CAUTION: Avoid damage to regulator. Hold gas regulator with wrench when connecting into gas
piping and /or fittings. Gas supplier provide external regulator for natural gas.
*Purchase the optional CSA design-certified equipment shut off valve from your dealer. See "Accessories".
** Minimum inlet pressure for purpose of input adjustment.

INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame patterns often.
PILOT FLAME PATTERN
1. Turn control knob to pilot position
2. Inspect pilot flame and refer to Figure 27 and 28.
· Figure 27 shows a correct pilot flame pattern.
· Figure 28 shows an incorrect pilot flame pattern. The
incorrect pilot flame is not touching the thermocouple. This will cause the thermocouple to cool. When the thermocouple cools, the heater will shut down.
· If the pilot flame is incorrect, as shown in Figure 28. Turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 18) See troubleshooting, page 21.
BURNER FLAME PATTERN
· Figure 31 shows a correct burner flame pattern.
· Figure 32 shows an incorrect burner flame pattern.
If burner flame is incorrect: Turn heater off (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 18)
see Troubleshooting, Page 21.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Failure to keep primary air openings of burners clean may result in sooting and property
damage.
CAUTION: You must keep control areas, burner, and circulating air passageways of heater clean.
Inspect these areas of heater before each use. Have heater inspected yearly by a qualified service person. Heater may need more frequent cleaning due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding material, pet hair, etc.
CLEANING ODS/IGNITOR AND BURNER
Clean with a vacuum cleaner.
CLEANING BURNER INJECTOR HOLDER AND PILOT AIR INLET HOLE
We recommend that you clean the unit every three months or after 2500 hours of operation. We also recommend that you keep the burner tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust and dirt. To clean these parts we recommend using compressed air no greater than 30 PSI. You can use a vacuum cleaner in the blow position. If using compressed air in a can, please follow the directions on the can. If you don't follow directions on the can, you could damage the pilot assembly.
1. Shut off the unit, including the pilot. Allow the unit to cool for at least thirty minutes.
2. Inspect burner, pilot and primary air inlet holes on injector holder for dust and dirt (see Figure 32).
3. Blow air through the ports/slots and holes in the burner.
4. Check the injector holder located at the end of the burner tube again. Remove any large particles of dust, dirt, lint, or pet hair with a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.
5. Blow air into the primary air holes on the injector holder.
6. In case any large clumps of dust have now been pushed into Figure 32 – Injector holder on
the burner. Repeat steps 3 and 4. Clean the pilot assembly also. Outlet Burner Tube A yellow tip on the pilot flame indicates dust and dirt in the pilot assembly. There is a small pilot air inlet hole about two inches from where the pilot flame comes out of the pilot assembly (see Figure 33). With the unit off, lightly blow air through the air inlet hole. You may blow through a drinking straw if compressed air is not available.

• Use a vacuum cleaner or pressurized air to clean.
the cabinet to remove dust.
LOGS
• If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to Installing Logs (page 16) for proper log placements. Figure 33 – Pilot Air Inlet Hole
• Replace logs if broken or chipped (dime-sized or larger).
MAIN BURNER
Periodically inspect all burner flame holes with the heater running. All slotted burner flame holes should be open with yellow flame present. All round burner flame holes should be open with a small blue flame Present. Some burner flame holes may become blocked by debris or rust, with no flame present. If so, turn off heater and let cool, either remove blockage or replace burner. Blocked burner flame holes will create soot.
