IMPORTANT:
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off
some expansion and/or contraction noises during the
start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found
with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your Vermont Castings, Majestic
Products gas fireplace to give off some odor the first
time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint
and any undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated -
open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Vermont
Castings, Majestic Products fireplace for a least six (6)
hours the first time you use it. If optional fan kit has
been installed, place fan in the "OFF" position during
this time.
Locating Your Gas Fireplace Insert
Your Direct Vented Insert unit was designed to be installed in an existing

must be given to the functioning needs of the fireplace.
The size of the fireplace cavity (min. 28³⁄₄"W x 21¹⁄₄"H x
16" D), the design of the chimney (a minimum size of 8" x
12" is necessary to accommodate the two (2) 3" liners).
The availability of the gas supply as well as electricity for
the insert fan must be confirmed.
Your Direct Vented Insert unit is designed
to be vented vertically only with a minimum
height of 12 feet.

Certified To
ANSI Z 21.88-2002 / CSA 2.33-2002
Vented Gas Fireplace Heaters
The installation of your Vermont Castings,
Majestic Products Fireplace must conform with
local codes, or in the absence of local codes,
with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
latest edition, or CSA B149.1 Installation Code.
(EXCEPTION: Do not derate this appliance for
elevations up to 4,500 ft. (1370mm). Maintain
the manifold pressure at 3.5" w.c. for Natural
Gas and 10" w.c. for LP gas.)
The gas pipeline can be brought into the fireplace base
from the right side. It is most convenient to install it
from the right side into the valve.
When using copper or flex connector use
only approved fittings. Always provide aunion when using black iron pipe so the gas
line can be easily disconnected for burner or
fan servicing. See gas specification for
pressure details and ratings.
The gas line connection can be made of
either properly tinned 3/8" copper pipe, 3/8" rigid pipe
or an approved flex connector. Since some
municipalities have some additional local codes, it is
always best to consult your local authority and the
CSA- B149.1 installation code.
U.S. Installations consult the current National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
The gas control inlet is 3/8" N.P.T. therefore the 1/2"
rigid gas line must be reduced to 3/8" N.P.T. Typical
installation layout for rigid pipe is shown following. (Fig.
1)
During any pressure testing of the gas line system,
when the test pressures are to exceed 1/2 psi (3.5 kpa)
the fireplace and its gas valve must not be connected
to that system.
At test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi, the gas
valve of the fireplace may be connected to the gas line,
but must be in the closed position.

Glass Cleaning
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically.
During start-up condensation, which is normal, forms
on the inside of the glass and causes lint, dust and
other airborne particles cling to the glass surface. Also
initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on the
glass. It is therefore recommended that the glass be
cleaned two or three times with a non-ammonia
household cleaner and warm water (we recommend
gas fireplace glass cleaner). After that the glass should
be cleaned two or three times during each heating
season depending on the circumstances present.
Clean glass after first two weeks of
operation.

First Firing
Upon completing the gas line connection, a small
amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting unit
with pilot light, it will take a few minutes to purge themselves of this air. Once the purging is complete, the
pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the
instruction manual. Subsequent lightings of the heater
will not require such purging.
When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight
odor for awhile. This is due to paint and lubricants used
in the manufacturing process. After each lighting, vapor
may condense and fog the glass; this moisture disappears within a few minutes of burning.

Maintenance
Burner and Burner Compartment
It is important to keep the burner and the burner
compartment clean. At least once per year the logs and
lava rock/ember material should be removed and the
burner compartment vacuumed and wiped out. Remove
and replace the logs as per the instructions in this
manual.
Always handle the logs with care as they
are fragile and may also be hot if the
fireplace has been in use.
Fan Assembly
The fan unit requires periodic cleaning. At least once
per month in the operating season, open the lower
louvre panels and wipe or vacuum the area around the
fan to remove any build up of dust or lint.
Cleaning the Standing Pilot
Control System
The burner and control system consists of:
• main burner• pilot burner
• gas orifice• thermopile
• combination millivolt gas valve
Most of these components may require only an occasional checkup and cleaning and some may require
adjustment. If repair is necessary, it should be performed by a qualified technician.
In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly,
turn off the gas to the unit, remove the window frame
panel and logs exposing the burner and pilot assembly.
Clean all foreign materials from the top of the burner.
Check to make sure that burner parts are clean.
Visually inspect pilot. Brush or blow away any dust or
lint accumulation. If pilot orifice is plugged, disassembly
may be required to remove any foreign material from
the orifice or tubing.
To obtain proper operation, it is imperative that the pilot
and burner's flame characteristics are steady, not lifting
or floating.
Typically, the top 1/8" of the thermopile should be
engulfed in the pilot flame. (Page 13, Fig. 24)
Brass Cleaning
Clean the brass trim with a soft clean cloth, slightly
dampened with lemon oil and buff with a soft dry cloth.
Do not use brass polish or household cleaners as these
products will damage the trim. Lemon oil can be
obtained at supermarkets or hardware stores.
