IMPORTANT: When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight odor 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.

Gas Supply
Caution: The gas line should be installed by a qualified
service person in accordance with all building codes.
Consult local and/or national building codes before proceeding.
The gas valve inlet accepts a 3/8" N.P.T. fitting. Correct gas
line diameter must be used to assure proper operation.
The gas control is equipped with a capture screw type pressure
test port, therefore it is not necessary to provide an 1/8 inch
N.P.T. plugged tapping pressure port for checking gas pressure immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the
appliance.
A knockout is provided at the bottom right rear of the appliance as an alternate entrance for a gas supply line (Fig. #11).
To use this entrance, remove the knockout from the rear of the
appliance. Remove the plastic bushing installed in the side and
reinstall into the hole at the rear of the appliance.
An optional 24" long flexible connector (part #
GASC.GASCON) may be used for easy gas connection. This
connector may exit the appliance through either the right front
or right rear access holes.
