FOR Y OUR SAFETY
Do not install or operate your Pacific
Energy heater without first reading
and understanding this manual. Any
installation or operational deviation
from the following instructions voids
the Pacific Energy Warranty and may
prove hazardous.
This appliance and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected
from gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at
test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig.
(3.5 kpa).
This appliance must be isolated from
the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shutoff
valve during any pressure testing of
the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2
psig. (3.5 kPa).
This appliance must not be
connected to a chimney flue serving
a separate solid-fuel burning
appliance.
If the optional blower is installed, this
appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, with
the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian
Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
Important: When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight
odour for a couple of hours.This is due to the curing of paints, sealants
and lubricants used in the manufacturing process.This condition is
temporary. Open doors and windows to ventilate area. If optional fan kit
has been installed, place fan in the "OFF" position. Smoke and fumes
caused by the curing process may cause discomfort to some
individuals.
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 cook stove oven.

is 12 3/16” x 17 1/4” x 5 mm.
To remove broken glass, see page 11
for window removal instructions.
Remove all particles of glass. Be
careful, as they are very sharp. Install
new glass complete with gasket and
frame.
Annual Inspection:
a) Clean air passageways of
excessive lint and dust buildup from
carpeting, bedding material, etc.
The flow of ventilation air must not
be obstructed.
b) Inspect logs and burner
assembly for lint and soot build-up.
If excessive build-up of soot is present, have a qualified service person
inspect and adjust unit for proper
combustion. Clean logs and burner
with a vacuum cleaner, paying close
attention to the ports on the burner.
c) Check the pilot system for proper
flame size and operation. Clean
pilot free of lint and dust.
(See Fig. #2)
d) Check that the vent pipe and
vent terminal are open and free
from blockage or debris. If the
venting system is disassembled for
cleaning, it must be properly
assembled and re-sealed, as per
vent manufacturers instructions.
e) Check door and glass panel
gasket, replace if necessary. It is
important that the glass and door
seal be maintained in good
condition.
Note: The appliance area must be
kept clear and free from

Gas Supply
Floor Protection
Clearances
Attachment
to Floor
In the state of Massachusetts, only a
licensed plumber and gas fitter may
install this product. Correct gas line
diameter must be used to assure
proper operation.
The gas control is equipped with a
captured screw type pressure test
point, therefore it is not necessary to
provide a 1/8 inch N.P.T. plugged
tapping pressure test port for
checking gas pressure immediately
upstream of the gas supply
connection to the appliance.
The gas valve inlet accepts a 3/8"
N.P.T. fitting.
Mobile Home installations require that
the appliance be firmly attached to
the structure. Once the appliance is in
its final location, secure the unit in
place through holes in the pedestal
base.The holes are located on the
left and right hand side of the base.
The Fusion Gas stove may be
installed directly on a combustible
floor.If the appliance is to be installed
directly on carpeting, combustible
floor tile or other combustible material
other than wood flooring, the
appliance shall be installed on a
metal or wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the unit.
The minimum clearances from the
appliance to combustibles are shown
on Fig. #3. Adequate clearances
around air openings are required.

stove (Fig.#3.01), remove the air
deflector and store it in a safe place
(Fig. #3.02).
2) Remove the two screws that
secure the top plate in place
(Fig. #3.03). To remove the top plate,
lift it from the back and slide it forward slightly to unhook it from the
brackets at the front (Fig.#3.04).
The fusion gas stove is set up in the
factory as a top vent.To convert to
rear vent, use the following procedure. Please read the instructions

IMPORTANT:
Take care not to damage the
gaskets on the vent adapter
and flue outlet cover plate
during the procedure. Inspect
the gaskets carefully before
reinstalling, if the gasket on
either piece is damaged, it
will need to be replaced
before continuing.
3) Remove the four screws that fasten the vent cover to the back of the
appliance, and remove the vent cover
(Fig. #3.05).
4) Remove the four screws securing
the vent adapter to the top of the
stove (Fig #3.06).Pull the vent
adapter off and attach it to the rear
flue outlet. Press fir mly to ensure a
positive, snug connection (Fig.#3.07)
and use four screws to fasten it in
