PRODUCT FEATURES

OPERATION

This heater is clean burning. It requires no outside
venting. There is no heat loss out a vent or up
a chimney. Heat is generated by realistic, danc­ing yellow fl ames. This heater is designed for
vent-free operation with fl ue damper closed. It
has been tested and approved to ANSI Z21.11.2
standard for unvented heaters. State and local
codes in some areas prohibit the use of vent-free
heaters. This heater may also be operated as
a vented decorative product (ANSI Z21.60) by
opening fl ue damper (non-thermostat operation
only).

APPLICATION

These multisided logs are designed to be equally

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

WARNING: This heater shall not be

installed in a room or space unless the
required volume of indoor combustion
air is provided by the method described
in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54, the International Fuel
Gas Code, or applicable local codes.
Read the following instructions to en­sure proper fresh air for this and other
fuel-burning appliances in your home.

Today’s homes are built more energy effi cient
than ever. New materials, increased insulation
and new construction methods help reduce heat
loss in homes. Homeowners apply weather strip
and caulk around windows and doors to keep
the cold air out and the warm air in. During heat­ing months, homeowners want their homes as
airtight as possible.

While it is good to make your home energy
effi cient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh
air must enter your home. All fuel-burning ap­pliances need fresh air for proper combustion
and ventilation.

Exhaust fans, some fi replaces, clothes dryers
and some fuel-burning appliances draw air from
the house to operate. Y ou must provide adequate
fresh air for these appliances. This will ensure
proper venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.

PROVIDING ADEQUA TE VENTILA TION

a standard fi rebox.

SAFETY PILOT

This heater has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion
Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The ODS/
pilot is a required feature for vent-free room heat­ers. The ODS/pilot shuts off the heater if there is
not enough fresh air.

PIEZO IGNITION SYSTEM

following ventilation classifi cations:

1. Unusually Tight Construction

2. Unconfi ned Space

3. Confi ned Space
The information on Pages 6-8 will help you clas-

sify your space and provide adequate ventilation.

Unusually Tight Construction

The air that leaks around doors and windows
may provide enough fresh air for combustion and
ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually
tight construction, you must provide additional
fresh air.

Unusually tight construction is defi ned as
construction where:

a. walls and ceilings exposed to the outside

atmosphere have a continuous water
vapor retarder with a rating of one perm
(6 x 10
openings gasketed or sealed and

b. weather stripping has been added on

openable windows and doors and

c. caulking or sealants are applied to areas

such as joints around window and door
frames, between sole plates and fl oors,
between wall-ceiling joints, between wall
panels, at penetrations for plumbing, elec­trical and gas lines and at other openings.

If your home meets all three criteria above,
you must provide additional fresh air. See
Ventilation Air From Outdoors, Page 8.

If your home does not meet all three criteria
above, proceed to Determining Fresh-Air
Flow For Heater Location, below.

Confi ned and Unconfi ned Space

The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA54 allows two methods for determining

whether the space in which the heater is being

-11

kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with

126848-01B6

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

Continued

installed is confi ned or unconfi ned space. The
standard method defi nes a confi ned space as
a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic

3

feet per 1,000 Btu/hr (4.8 m

per kw) of the ag­gregate input rating of all appliances installed
in that space and an unconfi ned space as
a space whose volume is not less than 50
cubic feet per 1,000 Btu/hr (4.8 m

3

per kw) of
the aggregate input 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 un­confi ned space.

Where the air infi ltration rate of a structure is
known, the Known Air Infi ltration Rate Method
may be used. Follow The National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 to use this
method to determine if the space is confi ned
or unconfi ned.

* Adjoining rooms are communicating only if
there are doorless passageways or ventilation
grills between them.

DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW
FOR HEATER LOCATION

Determining if You Have a Confi ned or
Unconfi ned Space Using the Standard
Method

Use this work sheet to determine if you have
a confi ned or unconfi ned space.

Space: Includes the room in which you will install
fi replace plus any adjoining rooms with door­less passageways or ventilation grills between
the rooms.

1. Determine the volume of the space (length

x width x height).

Length x Width x Height =__________cu. ft.

(volume of space)

Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 16 ft.

(width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 2560 cu. ft.
(volume of space)

If additional ventilation to adjoining room

is supplied with grills or openings, add the
volume of these rooms to the total volume
of the space.

2. Multiply the space volume by 20 to determine
the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.

________ (volume of space) x 20 = (Maxi-

mum Btu/Hr the space can support)

Example: 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space) x 20

= 51,200 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can
support)

3. Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances
in the space.

Vent-free fi replace __________Btu/Hr
Gas water heater* __________Btu/Hr
Gas furnace __________Btu/Hr
Vented gas heater __________Btu/Hr
Gas fi replace logs __________Btu/Hr
Other gas appliances* + _________Btu/Hr
Total = _________Btu/Hr
* Do not include direct-vent gas appliances.

Direct-vent draws combustion air from the
outdoors and vents to the outdoors.

Example:
Gas water heater __________Btu/Hr
Vent-free fi replace + _________Btu/Hr
Total = _________Btu/Hr

Compare the maximum Btu/Hr the space can

4.
support with the actual amount of Btu/Hr used.

_______ Btu/Hr (maximum can support)
_______ Btu/Hr (actual amount used)
Example: 51,200 Btu/Hr (maximum the

space can support)

73,000 Btu/Hr (actual amount of

Btu/Hr used)

The space in the above example is a confi ned
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 as follows:

A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an

adjoining room. If the extra space provides
an unconfi ned space, remove door to adjoin-
ing room or add ventilation grills between
rooms. See Ventilation Air From Inside

Building, Page 8.

B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See

Ventilation Air From Outdoors, Page 8.

C. Install a lower Btu/Hr fi replace, if lower Btu/

Hr size makes room unconfi ned.

If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maxi­mum Btu/Hr the space can support, the space is
an unconfi ned space. Y ou will need no additional
fresh air ventilation.

MANTEL CLEARANCES

In addition to meeting noncombustible mate­rial clearances, you must also meet required
clearances between fi replace openings and
mantel shelf on each side of the fi replace. If
you do not meet the clearances listed below,
you will need a hood.

Determining Minimum Mantel Clearance

If you meet minimum clearance between
mantel shelf and top of fi replace opening, a
hood is not required (see Figure 6).

Determining Minimum Mantel Clearance
When using a Hood

If minimum clearances in Figure 6 are not
met, you must have a hood. When using a
hood there are still certain minimum mantel
clearances required. Follow minimum clear­ances shown in Figure 7 when using hood.

NOTICE: Surface temperatures
of adjacent walls and mantels
become hot during operation.
Walls and mantels above the
firebox may become hot to
the touch. If installed properly,
these temperatures meet the

Notice: If your installation does
not meet the minimum clear­ances shown, you must do one
of the following:

• operate the logs only with
the fl ue damper open

• raise the mantel to an ac­ceptable height

• remove the mantel

FLOOR CLEARANCES

A. If installing appliance on the fl oor level,

you must maintain the minimum distance
of 14" to combustibles (see Figure 8).

B. If combustible materials are less than

14" to the fi replace, you must install ap-
pliance at least 5" above the top surface
of combustible fl ooring including tile and
carpet (see Figure 9).

If your heater is a manually controlled model,
you may use this heater as a vented product.
There are three reasons for operating your
heater in the vented mode:

1. The fi replace does not meet the clearance
to combustibles requirements for vent­free operation

2. State or local codes do not permit vent­free operation

3. You prefer vented operation

If reasons number 1 or 2 above apply to you,
you must permanently open chimney fl ue
damper. You must install the damper clamp
accessory (to order, see Accessories, Page

30). This will ensure vented operation (see

Figure 10). The damper clamp will keep

damper open. Installation instructions are
included with clamp accessory.

See chart below for minimum permanent fl ue
opening you must provide. Attach damper
clamp so the minimum permanent fl ue open-
ing will be maintained at all times.

CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY

WARNING: A qualifi ed service
person must connect heater to gas
supply. Follow all local codes.

WARNING: Never connect pro­pane/LP heater directly to the pro­pane/LP supply. This heater requires
an external regulator (not supplied).
Install the external regulator between
the heater and propane/LP supply.

WARNING: Never connect natural
gas heater to private (non-utility) gas
wells. This gas is commonly known
as wellhead gas.

Installation Items Needed

Before installing heater, make sure you have
the items listed below.

• external regulator (for propane/LP units
only, supplied by installer)

• piping (check local codes)

• sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)

• equipment shutoff valve

• test gauge connection

• sediment trap

• tee joint

• pipe wrench

For propane/LP units, the installer must
supply an external regulator. The external
regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure.
You must reduce incoming gas pressure to
between 11" and 14" of water. If you do not
reduce incoming gas pressure, heater regula­tor damage could occur. Install external regu­lator with the vent pointing down as shown in
Figure 13. Pointing the vent down protects it
from freezing rain or sleet.

CAUTION: Use only new, black
iron or steel pipe. Internally-tinned
copper tubing may be used in certain
areas. Check your local codes. Use
pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to
allow proper gas volume to heater.
If pipe is too small, undue loss of
volume will occur.

Installation must include an equipment shutoff
valve, union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap. Lo­cate NPT tap within reach for test gauge hook
up. NPT tap must be upstream from heater

(see Figure 14, Page 15).
IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoff valve

in an accessible location. The equipment
shutoff valve is for turning on or shutting off
the gas to the appliance.

Check your building codes for any special
requirements for locating equipment shutoff
valve to fi replaces.

Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT
threads. This will prevent excess sealant from
going into pipe. Excess sealant in pipe could
result in clogged heater valves.

WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant
that is resistant to liquid petroleum
(LP) gas.

We recommend that you install sediment trap
in supply line as shown in Figure 14, Page 15.
Locate sediment trap where it is within reach
for cleaning. Install in piping system between
fuel supply and heater. Locate sediment trap
where trapped matter is not likely to freeze.

BURNER PRIMARY AIR HOLES

Air is drawn into the burner through the holes
in the fi tting at the burner entrance. These
holes may become blocked with dust or lint.
Periodically inspect these holes for any block­age and clean if needed. Blocked air holes
will create soot.

MAIN BURNER

Periodically inspect all burner fl ame holes with
the heater running. All slotted burner fl ame
holes should be open with yellow fl ame pres-
ent. All round burner fl ame holes should be
open with a small blue fl ame present. Some
burner fl ame holes may become blocked by
debris or rust, with no fl ame present. If so,
turn off heater and let cool. Remove blockage,
blocked burner fl ame holes will create soot.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Turn off heater

and let cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: You must keep
control areas, burner and circu­lating air passageways of heater
clean. Inspect these areas of
heater before each use. Have
heater inspected yearly by a quali­fi ed service person. Heater may
need more frequent cleaning due
to excessive lint from carpeting,
bedding material, pet hair , etc.

4. Check injector holder located at the end of
the burner tube again. Remove any large
particles of dust, dirt, lint, or pet hair with
a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner nozzle.

5. Blow air into the primary air holes on the
injector holder.

6. In case any large clumps of dust have now
been pushed into the burner repeat steps
3 and 4.

Clean the pilot assembly also. A yellow tip
on the pilot fl ame indicates dust and dirt in
the pilot assembly. There is a small pilot air
inlet hole about 2" from where the pilot fl ame
comes out of pilot assembly (see Figure 33).
With the unit off, lightly blow air through the
air inlet hole. You may blow through a drink­ing straw if compressed air is not available.

WARNING: Failure to keep
the primary air opening(s) of
the burner(s) clean may result
in sooting and property damage.

CLEANING BURNER INJECTOR
HOLDER AND PILOT AIR INLET HOLE

The primary air inlet holes allow the proper
amount of air to mix with the gas. This provides
a clean burning fl ame. Keep these holes clear
of dust, dirt, lint, and pet hair. Clean these air in­let holes prior to each heating season. Blocked
air holes will create soot. We recommend that
you clean the unit every three months during
operation and have heater inspected yearly by
a qualifi ed service person.

We also recommend that you keep the burner
tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust
and dirt. To clean these parts we recommend
using compressed air no greater than 30 PSI.
Y our local computer store, hardware store, or
home center may carry compressed air in a
can. If using compressed air in a can, please
follow the directions on the can. If you don't
follow directions on the can, you could dam­age the pilot assembly.

1. Shut off unit, including pilot. Allow unit to
cool for at least thirty minutes.

2. Inspect burner, pilot, and primary air inlet
holes on injector holder for dust and dirt

(see Figure 32).

3. Blow air through the ports/slots and holes
in the burner.
