COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight
construction unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and
ventilation air. The heater may be located in unusually tight construction
provided the space is unconfined, or if confined, is provided with two
permanent openings communicating directly with an additional room(s)
of sufficient volume so that the combined volume of all connected spaces
meets the criteria for an unconfined space, (National Fuel Gas Code
NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition, section on Air for Combustion and Ventilation. Generally 50 ft
appliances in the space.
The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, defines a confined
space as a space whose volume is less than 50 ft
3
(4.8 m
per kW) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed
in that space and an unconfined space as a space whose volume is not
less than 50 ft
rating of all appliances installed in that space.
Rooms communicating directly with the space in which the appliances
are installed, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered
a part of the unconfined space.
Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where:
a. Wall and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continu-
ous water vapor retarder with a rating of one perm (6 X 10-11 kg per
pa-sec-m
b. Weather stripping has been added on operable windows 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.
Use the following equations to determine if you have a confined or
unconfined space.

amount of BTU/Hr used.
_______ BTU/Hr (max. the space can support)
_______ BTU/Hr (actual amount of BTU/Hr used)
Example:
61,440 BTU/Hr (max. the space can support)
67,000 BTU/Hr (actual amount of BTU/Hr used)
The space in the previous 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:
a. Rework equations adding the space of adjoining room(s). If the extra
volume provides an unconfined space, then remove door or add
ventilation grills between rooms. Refer to National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54-latest edition, section "Air for Combustion and Ventilation".
b. Vent room directly to the outdoors. Refer to National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54-latest edition, section "Air for Combustion and
Ventilation".
c. Install a lower BTU/Hr heater to make the area an unconfined space.
If the actual BTU/Hr used is less than the maximum BTU/Hr the space
can support, then the space is an unconfined space. You will need no
additional fresh air ventilation for an unconfined space.

SITE REQUIREMENTS
CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
This appliance is designed to be wall-hung. Do not recess any part of
the appliance into the wall.
This appliance may be installed in any room in a home except bedrooms
or bathrooms - or areas where large amounts of steam are likely to be
generated.
It should be noted that heaters create warm air currents. These currents
move heat to wall surfaces next to the heater. Installing the heater next
to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or operating the heater where impurities in the air (such as tobacco smoke or candle smoke) exist, may
discolor walls.
Installation in living rooms is common, however other rooms such as
kitchens, dining rooms and hallways are permitted, providing a suitable
gas supply is available, and rooms sizing and ventilation requirements
are strictly adhered to (seePage 8).
The appliance is designed to be versatile, and as such will operate correctly
when exposed to normal gentle drafts experienced within the home. It is
not recommended, however that the appliance be installed in areas where
it is likely to be exposed to persistent strong drafts, that may be generated
by outside doors or windows, air vents etc. It is recommended that the
appliance should not be installed within 20" of any air vent.
CAUTION
The back of the appliance may be installed directly
onto a combustible wall or non-combustible wall,
providing the area behind the appliance is flat and
does not interfere with the various vent holes in the
back panel of the appliance.
CLEARANCES TO NON-COMBUSTIBLES
Non-combustible surfaces are defined as brick, metal, marble, concrete
etc. and also a number of man-made materials impervious to flame. If in
doubt refer to the material manufacturer for further information before
proceeding with installation.
Combustible materials are defined as wood, fabrics, or other materials
likely to combust if exposed to flame. Generally, any material, which is
likely to discolor, melt or misshape when exposed to moderate heat,
should be considered as a combustible material or surface.
Clearance to the sides of the appliance are 4” but curtains, drapes and
other fabrics are not permitted within a distance of 20” of the appliance
sides. No such materials are permitted directly above the appliance
regardless of distance.

from the top of the appliance glass panel.
Combustible materials should not be positioned directly in front of the
appliance within a distance of 40”.
Under no circumstances should any electrical equipment e.g. plasma
screen TV sets etc. be positioned on the wall above the appliance. The
appliance is designed to be wall mounted alone and not in conjunction
with any type of combustible fire surround.
No combustible shelves should be positioned on the wall above the
appliance.
It should be established that any mirrors or picture frames etc. to be
positioned on the wall above the appliance are able to withstand prolonged exposure to moderate heat and moisture before proceeding with
their installation.
The wall must be structurally sound and constructed from a material
capable of withstanding moderate heat. Finished plaster, conventional
wall paper and dry-lined plasterboard are examples of suitable materials. Materials such as flock, blown vinyl and embossed paper which are
sensitive to even small amounts of heat should be avoided as scorching
and or discoloration may occur over time.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry-lined wall or a timber framed
construction wall then the integrity and ability of the wall to carry the
weight of the appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these
circumstances that any vapor control barrier is not damaged, and that
any structural members of the house frame are not damaged.
Clearances to the sides of the appliance are 4”. Clearance to the front
of the appliance is 20”.
The appliance may be installed with or without a non-combustible hearth.
If a hearth is fitted, the size and design may be as desired.
A non-combustible shelf of any depth may be positioned above the appliance provided it is no closer than 16” from the top of the appliance glass
panel and the wall above the appliance is non-combustible.
The appliance may be positioned as close to a solid floor (i.e. stone,
wooden laminate etc.) as the particular design of fire frame permits,
however it is not permitted to install the appliance within 4” of carpet,
rugs or fabric materials of any kind. This dimension is measured vertically to the bottom of the appliance frame.

GAS SUPPLY ROUTES
IMPORTANT NOTE: All gas piping must be done by
a licensed plumber or gas fitter and must conform
to the requirements of the National Fuel Gas Code
NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition.
Gas connection: The heater gas inlet connection is
3/8” NPT at the regulator, located below the burner,
in the right hand side of the heater. There are four
possible entry points for the gas supply pipe-work
to enter the appliance firebox. These entry points are
‘knock out’ type holes (shown in Figure 1).
NOTE: See Page 22 for gas line entry
point dimensions.
Wall Mounting Plate
Firebox
Figure 2
Figure 1 - Gas Supply Entry Points
Non-concealed gas connections may be made
using the entry points on the base of the firebox.
A concealed gas connection may be made using
the knockout hole in the center back of the firebox.
Select the most appropriate entry point and knock
out the relevant hole.
No more than 59" of 1/4" diameter pipe must be used
to avoid unnecessary pressure drops.
If a concealed gas con nection is to be made, the
supply pipe should always be sleeved through walls
and floors using the shortest possi ble route.
For concealed supply pipe routing, pipes must
(where possible) be ver tical and providing there is
sufficient wall thick ness available, they should be
placed in pipe chases. Horizontal pipe runs should
be avoided where possible. Prior to chasing a
solid wall, an inspection should be made to note
the proximity of any cables/sockets outlets which
may already be buried. Pipes must be secured using
suitable clips and protected against corrosion.
Ideally factory finished protected pipe-work and
fittings should be used. Joints should be kept to
a minimum and compression fittings must not be
used. The pipe-work installation must be tested for
soundness before any protection is applied and/or
the pipe-work and fittings are buried.
PREPARING THE APPLIANCE
Remove the wall mounting plate from the back of the appliance firebox by removing the two
retaining wing nuts (indicated by arrows in Figure 2) from the retaining studs that protrude
into the lower part of the main firebox.

It is recommended that the burner height, where possible, should
be approximately 4 ft. from the floor. This will give the best viewing
position. When selecting the height, ensure that the clearance to the ceiling is 32" minimum, as specified onPage 9.
After selecting the final mounting position of the appliance, taking
into account the site requirements as specified in section - Site Requirements of these instructions, the integrity of the wall, and the
feasibility of the proposed supply pipe routing, the firebox of the
appliance may be secured to the wall.
Due to the weight of the front surround assembly, it is possible to fasten
the outer casing to the wall in up to nine positions, depending on the
strength/condition of the wall. If in doubt always use extra fixings!
Use a bubble level to ensure that the outer casing is level at all times
during installation.
Insert the screws into two of the upper holes, leaving 3/16" protruding
from the wall. Temporarily hang the outer casing on the wall, and mark
any additional fixing points as required. If the appliance is to be fitted
to a lightly colored wall, it is advantageous to paint this wall area with
black or dark paint in the vicinity of the lower rectangular slots on the
outer casing. This will mask the wall when viewed from the front of the
appliance. Ensure paint is fully dry before mounting the appliance. Use
the outer casing as a template to mark this area on the wall. Remove
the outer casing from the wall and drill holes for the additional fixing
points as required. Insert either wall plugs or cavity screw fixings as
required. Re-position the outer casing on the wall and using a bubble
level to check the casing is square and level, tighten all of the fixing
screws fully.
FITTING THE SURROUND ASSEMBLY
Due to the weight of the frame assembly, it is recommended to seek
assistance for this operation.
The frame assembly will be supported by keyhole slots by four M6
screws which protrude from the front of the outer casing (see Figure
5). Ensure each screw is unscrewed approximately one turn from the
fully screwed in position in order to create a 1/16" gap (shown). Hang
the surround assembly onto the outer casing, starting with the two
bottom fixings, ensuring that the corresponding keyhole shaped holes
engage the screw heads fully.
Heat Shield
Now, with the outer casing fixed to the wall, the main firebox can be
secured in position. The firebox is held on the outer casing using four
studs and two normal nuts (upper fixings) and two wing nuts (lower
fixings). Make sure that the upper nuts are unscrewed approximately
one turn from the fully tightened position in order to create a 1/16" gap
as shown in Figure 4. The firebox may now be hung onto the top studs,
and then pushed onto the lower studs so that the lower studs protrude
through the lower fixing holes in the back panel of the firebox.
Next, re-fit the grill, the indicator bracket and the control knob and
spindle, and secure in position using the correct fixing screws (re-fitting
is the opposite of removal as detailed in these instructions).
1/16"
IMPORTANT NOTE: Ensure that the
surround is positioned with the
heat shield on top as shown.

12NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE
CHECKING THE BURNER
There are no imitation fuel bed components, such as logs or rocks,
to install. The appliance features a ribbon burner which is designed to
produce a continuous band of flame over its length. The burner should
be visually inspected to ensure it is free from any foreign matter. If it is
necessary to clean or dust off the burner then the glass door should be
removed by removal of the four retaining screws. Re-fit the glass door
after cleaning or inspection, ensuring a good seal.
CONNECTING A GAS LINE
An ANSI approved manual shut-off valve and union must be installed
upstream of the heater within the fireplace cavity when rigid pipe is
used. Ensure that a sediment trap is installed upstream of the heater
(Figure 6) within the structure’s piping system to prevent moisture and
contaminants from passing through the pipe to the heater controls and
burner. Failure to do so could prevent the heater from operating reliably.
The heater gas inlet connection is 3/8” NPT at the regulator, located
below the burner, in the right hand side of the heater. When tightening
up the joint to the regulator hold the regulator securely with a wrench
to prevent the regulator from moving.
NOTE: See Page 22 for gas line entry point dimensions.
WARNING
Connecting directly to a unregulated propane
(L.P.G.) tank may cause an explosion.
IMPORTANT
Hold heater regulator with a wrench to prevent
movement when connecting to inlet piping.
A qualified gas appliance installer must connect the gas room heater to
the gas supply. Consult all local codes.
The installer must provide an ANSI approved manual shut off valve, flex
connector and 3/8" NPT fitting. A flex gas line kit with shut-off valve is
available (see Page 19 for ordering information).
Route gas line using techniques and materials prescribed by local
and/or national codes. Only use pipe of 1/2" or greater size to allow full
gas volume to the gas fireplace. Undue pressure loss will occur if the
pipe is too small.
An external regulator must be used on all propane (L.P.G.) heaters, in
addition to the regulator fitted to the heater, to reduce the supply tank
pressure to 13" w.c. (maximum).
CHECKING THE GAS CONNECTIONS
WARNING
Never use an open flame to check for leaks.
Turn on gas supply and test for gas leaks using a gas leak test solution
(also referred to as bubble leak solution).
NOTE: Using a soapy water solution (50% dish soap, 50% water) is
an effective leak test solution, but it is not recommended, because the
soap residue that is left on the pipes/fittings can result in corrosion
over time.
A. Light the appliance (refer to the lighting instructions label in the con trol
compartment or on Page 17).
B. Brush all joints and connections with the gas leak test solution to
check for leaks. If bubbles are formed, or gas odor is detected, turn
the gas control knob (off/pilot/on) to the “OFF” position. Either tighten
or refasten the leaking connection, then retest as described above.
C. When the gas lines are tested and leak free, be sure to rinse off the
leak testing solution.
D. Observe the individual tongues of flame on the burner. Make sure all
ports are open and producing flame evenly across the burner. If any
ports are blocked, or partially blocked, clean out the ports.

17.0 GAS PRESSURE CHECK
SPARK GAP
The heater regulator controls the burner pressure which should be
checked at the pressure test point located on the appliance inlet pipe.
The appliance inlet pipe runs between the regulator and the gas valve
and the test point is located next to the regulator as shown in Figure 7a.
WARNING
Turn off the gas supply before removing the pressure
test point screw.
The test point is situated before the appliance gas valve so it will be
necessary to turn off the gas supply before removing the test point
screw. Connect the pressure gauge.
The gap between the spark electrode and the pilot should be 1/8” to
3/16” to produce a good spark. There should be no need to adjust this
(DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADJUST THE GAP). If under any circumstances
the piezo electric spark fails, the pilot cannot be lit manually.
Adjustment to the
pilot is Not allowed
Figure 8 - Proper Spark Gap
1/8" to 3/16" Spark Gap
BRIEFING THE CUSTOMER
Figure 7a - Remove test point screw
Turn on the gas supply and light the heater. Turn the control to the high
flame setting and check the pressure. The pressure regulator on manual
models is preset and locked to avoid tampering. If the pressure is not as
specified in Table 1 on Page 7, replace the regulator with P/N H6063
for Natural Gas units and H7001 for Propane Gas units. Replace the test
point screw ensuring no gas leaks.
WARNING
Do not add logs or ornaments such as pine cones,
vermiculite or rock wool. Using these added items
can cause sooting.
All instructions must be left in the possession of the user for safekeeping.
If at all possible, show the customer how to light and control the appliance and show the customer how to remove and replace the surround
assembly and glass door assembly.
After commissioning the appliance, the customer should be instructed
on the safe use of the appliance and the need for regular servicing.
Frequency of service depends on usage, but MUST be carried out
at least once annually. Advise that cleaning of the appliance may be
achieved when the fire is cold using a damp cloth and mild detergent
on most surfaces.
Advise that the fireplace will emit a "newness" smell for a time after
initial commissioning and that extra ventilation may be needed during
this time. Recommend that a guard be used for the protection of the
young, pets, the elderly and the infirm.
Advise the user to never place any objects on top of the appliance or

• Non-ammonia based household cleaner
• 50% -50% mix of white vinegar and water
• Gas fireplace/stove glass cleaner
PAINTED AREAS - These can be cleaned using a dry cloth.
LIMESTONE SURFACES: Remember that limestone is porous and
therefore susceptible to marking in use. The limestone frame may be
cleaned with a small amount of warm soapy water. Any stubborn stains
may be removed with a diluted liquid household bleach and water solution. Superficial scratches or stubborn surface stains can be smoothed
out using a fine grade wet and dry sandpaper. Joints may be grouted
using a matching tile grout. The limestone frame may be sealed with
an appropriate stone sealer (consult the retailer). This will give some
protection against staining such as red wine, tea or coffee, but may
darken the stone slightly.
GRANITE SURFACES: In everyday use, a soft lint-free duster should be
used to keep the granite clean. Other marks, such as fingerprints may
be removed from the granite frame by using household window-glass
cleaner.

CATALYSTS
WARNING
Do not block the catalysts or the appliance outlet grill.
Blockage may cause high carbon monoxide levels
and/or breakage of the glass facia panel.
WARNING
Do not operate the appliance with the catalyst units
removed.
DO NOT BLOCK
THESE AREAS
Turn on the fireplace as per the operating instructions, and run at
maximum setting for 15 minutes. Position gas sample probe directly
over a cata lyst via the outlet grill, on top of the appliance. Record the
carbon diox ide (CO
concentration as displayed by the analyzer - also noting the units in
which the values are expressed. Most analyzers display carbon dioxide
(CO
2) concentrations in percentage (%) terms and carbon monoxide
concentration in parts per million (ppm) terms.
In order to calculate the combustion ratio for the appliance (CO/CO
is first necessary to express both gas concentrations in terms of percentage. To convert from parts per million (ppm) to a percentage (%)
divide the ppm figure by 10,000. Examples : 35ppm = 0.0035%, 15ppm
= 0.0015%, 5ppm = 0.0005%.
Now divide the concentration of carbon monoxide (CO) expressed in
percent by the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO
appliance combustion ratio.
CO (%)

The combustion ratio of the gasses emitted by the catalytic convertor
should not exceed 0.0015. If replacing, firstly, remove the glass door
assembly as described in section - Positioning of Field Assembled Parts.
The catalysts are located on the top of the internal firebox and can be
removed be unscrewing the retaining nuts securing the clamping plate.
Remove the catalysts and seals and discard.

Figure 9 - Catalysts and Outlet Grill
It is recommended that the catalysts are inspected for signs of damage
and dirt during routine servicing procedures. The expected life of the
catalysts is in excess of 11,000 hours (10 years of normal use). After
this time the catalyst should be replaced.
If there are any deposits of dirt or soot on the catalysts they should be
clean ed with a soft brush and a vacuum cleaner. If removed for cleaning
ensure the seals are in good condition before replacing the catalyst. New
seals will usually be required.
The performance of the catalyst may be checked using a combustion
gas analyzer as follows.
IMPORTANT: The temperature of the gases emitted by the catalytic
converters reach very high temperatures (up to 700° F). Measuring
gas of this temperature may damage some types of gas analyzers. If
in doubt consult the equipment manufacturer.
TESTING FOR FIREBOX LEAKAGE
Appliances that are several years old or have been extensively disman tled
should be checked for soundness. It is important that all the prod ucts
of combustion pass through the catalytic converters at the top of the
firebox before leaving the appliance.
The firebox is heated by lighting for a few minutes to provide a flow
through the firebox. The burner is then shut off and a smoke pellet or
match introduced at the base of the fire underneath the burner tray. Large
quantities of smoke will emerge from the top of the appliance, but none
should emerge from the joints or gasket faces, especially around the
door. It is important to note that the appliance can never be expect ed
to be 100% smoke tight and small quantities of smoke may be seen in
corners of joints and gasket faces etc without affecting safety when the
fire is in operation.

uThis appliance is equipped with a oxygen depletion monitoring safety device (ODS). If the appliance shuts down during use for no
apparent reason then several reasons may be suspected. If a door or window has been opened creating a draft, then pilot disturbance could
be the problem and removal of the draft should resolve this.
vIf pilot disturbance is not the cause, then the ODS safety system sensing that there is a lack of oxygen. TURN THE APPLIANCE OFF,
call in your installer to check the appliance and ventilation. DO NOT allow the appliance to be used until the qualified service technician has
determined that the appliance is operating properly and adequate ventilation is being provided.
