PRE-INSTALLATION NOTES
The fireplace may be installed directly on a
combustible floor or raised on a platform of an
appropriate height. Do not place fireplace on
carpeting, vinyl or other soft floor coverings. It
may, however, be placed on flat wood, plywood, particle board or other hard surfaces. Be
sure fireplace rests on a solid continuous floor
or platform with appropriate framing for support and so that no cold air can enter the room
from under the fireplace.
The fireplace may be positioned and then the
framing built around it, or the framing may be
constructed and the fireplace positioned into
the opening.
Usually, no special floor support is needed for
the fireplace, however, to be certain:
1. Estimate the total weight of the fireplace
system and surround materials such as brick,
stone, etc., to be installed.
2. Measure the square footage of the floor
space to be occupied by the system, surrounds
and hearth extensions.
3. Note the floor construction, i.e. 2 x 6’s, 2 x
8’s or 2 x 10’s, single or double joists, type and
thickness of floor boards.
4. Use this information and consult your local
building code to determine if you need additional support.
If you plan to raise the fireplace and hearth
extension, build the platform assembly then
position fireplace and hearth extension on top.
Secure the platform to the floor to prevent
possible shifting.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION SEQUENCE
The typical sequence of installation follows,
however, each installation is unique resulting in
variations to those described.
1. Construct the appliance framing.
2. Route gas supply line to appliance location.
A
3. Position the appliance.
4. Install the vent system and exterior termination.
5. Field wire and install operating control switch.
6. Make connection to gas supply.
7. Install (optional) outside Air Kit.
8. Install the logs and rockwool.
9. Checkout appliance operation.
10. Adjust burner to ensure proper flame
appearance.
INSTALLING THE FIREPLACE
Step 1. Frame appliance enclosure as illus-
trated in
Note: The framed depth, 20
from a framed wall, must always be measured from a finished surface. If a wall covering such as drywall is to be attached to the
rear wall, then the 20
measured from the drywall surface. It is important that this dimension be exact.
If the appliance is to be elevated above floor
level, a solid continuous platform must be
constructed.
The header may rest on the top metal spacers,
but must not be notched to fit around them.

Page 6
Step 2. Route gas line (
Figure 8
) using tech-
niques and materials prescribed by local and/or
national codes. It is recommended that a gas
line of ¹⁄₂" or greater diameter be used to allow
full gas volume to the fireplace. Undue pressure
loss will occur if the pipe is too small. The
appliance, as set up at the factory, is best suited
for use with a gas line routed from the right
side. The gas line may however be alternately
routed from the left side.
When rigid pipe is used, an ANSI approved
manual shut-off valve and union must be installed upstream of the fireplace.
Ensure that a sediment trap is installed in the
existing gas line, if not, install a sediment trap
upstream to prevent moisture and contaminants
from passing through trap to the appliance controls and burners. Failure to do so could prevent
the appliance from operating reliably.
An external regulator must be used on all propane (L.P.G.) heaters to reduce the supply tank
pressure to 13" w.c. (maximum). Any copper
tubing used to supply propane (L.P.G.) from
the tank must be internally tinned.
IMPORTANT: HOLD GAS VALVE SECURELY
TO PREVENT MOVEMENT WHEN CONNECTING TO INLET GAS LINE
WARNING: CONNECTING DIRECTLY TO
AN UNREGULATED PROPANE (L.P.G.)
TANK MAY CAUSE AN EXPLOSION.
IMPORTANT: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
CAN THE FIREPLACE TOP SPACERS (
FIGURE 2
) BE REMOVED OR MODIFIED,
SEE
NOR MAY YOU NOTCH THE HEADER TO FIT
AROUND OR BE INSTALLED LOWER THAN
THE SPACERS. THE HEADER MAY BE IN
DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE TOP SPACERS
BUT MAY NOT BE SUPPORTED BY THEM.
Fireplace should be secured to side framing
members using the full length ¹⁄₂ inch nailing
flanges that are integral to the appliance at
each side. Use 8d nails.
Note: The nailing tabs and the area directly behind
the nailing tabs are exempt from the clearances
described on the fireplace clearance label.

When properly positioned, the rockwool will
unevenly cover approximately 85% of the gap
between the front burner and the grate front
face with no appreciable openings.
Carefully position the ceramic fiber log assembly onto the burner, refer to the Homeowners
Care and Operation Instructions for detailed
log description and placement instructions.
Position the logs onto the pins of the burner,
with the cutouts fitted around the burner tube.
Ensure the rear log matches the cutout on its
bottom with the position of the pilot.

When first lighting the appliance, it will take a
few minutes for the line to purge itself of air.
Once purging is complete, the pilot and burner
will light and operate as indicated in the instruction manual.
Subsequent lightings of the appliance will
not require such purging. Inspect the pilot
flame (remove logs, if necessary, handling
carefully).
MANUALLY-RESET BLOCKED FLUE SAFETY
SWITCH
This appliance is equipped with a manuallyreset blocked flue safety switch. Refer to
Figure 19
for its location. If during appliance
operation, the flame goes out (independently
of the burner on/off wall switch), it may be due
to the operation of this safety limit switch.
First allow the appliance to cool. Then reset
the safety switch by pushing the red reset
button on the back of the switch.
CAUTION: THE ELECTRONIC APPLIANCE
SHOULD BE TURNED OFF BEFORE REMOVING THE LIMIT SWITCH.
To access the safety limit switch reset button,
remove the two screws. Pull out limit switch
with low voltage wires attached, push the reset
button, then reinstall the limit switch. At this
time turn the electronic appliance back on.
The appliance should then relight and remain
lit. If this does not occur, turn off the appli-
ance and call a qualified service technician.
Millivolt Appliance Checkout
The pilot flame should be steady, not lifting or
floating. Flame should be blue in color with
traces of orange at the outer edge.
The top ³⁄₈" (9 mm) at the pilot generator (thermopile) should be engulfed in the pilot flame. The
flame should project 1" (25 mm) beyond the
hood at all three ports

Step 10. Adjustments – The following para-
graphs address adjustment concerns and
procedures.
Flame Appearance and Sooting
Proper flame appearance is a matter of taste.
Generally most people prefer the warm glow of
a yellow to orange flame. Appliances operated
with air shutter openings that are too large, or
with long vertical vent runs, will exhibit flames
that are blue and transparent. These weak, blue
and transparent flames are termed anemic.
If the air shutter opening is too small sooting
may develop. Sooting is indicated by black
puffs developing at the tips of very long orange
flames. Sooting results in black deposits forming on the logs, appliance inside surfaces and
on exterior surfaces adjacent to the vent termination. Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in the flames and a lack of combustion
air entering the air shutter opening.
If sooting conditions exist, the air shutter
opening on the main burner can be adjusted.
Normally, the more offsets in the vent system,
the greater the need for the air shutter to be
opened further.
WARNING: AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A
QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL SERVICE
TECHNICIAN.
Adjustment
To adjust the flame, position the air shutter to
the nominal setting
burner to operate for at least 30 minutes. Observe the flame continuously. If it appears weak
or sooty as previously described, adjust the air
shutter open or closed until desired effect is
achieved.
Note: If the flame still appears anemic with the
air shutter closed all the way (usually a result
of lengthy vertical venting runs), turn off the
appliance, turn off the gas supply, wait for the
parts to cool and access the air shutter. The
shutter is prevented from actually closing by a
tab that is bent over into the opening. Remove
this obstruction by bending back. Reassemble
and restart the appliance and after 30 minutes
reobserve the flame. Adjust the air shutter as
described.

When satisfied that the appliance operates
properly, proceed to finish the installation.
