CONNECTING TO GAS SUPPLY
WARNING: This appliance requires a 1/2"
NPT (National Pipe Thread) inlet connection to the pressure regulator.
WARNING: A qualifi ed service person must connect appliance to gas supply. Follow all local codes.
CAUTION: Never connect propane/LP ap­pliance directly to the propane/LP supply. This appliance requires an external regulator (not supplied). Install the external regulator between the appliance and propane/LP supply .
WARNING: Never connect natural gas ap­pliance to private (non-utility) gas wells. This gas is commonly known as wellhead gas.
Installation Items Needed
Before installing appliance, make sure you have the items listed below.
• external regulator (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
• approved fl exible gas line with gas connector (if allowed by local codes) (not provided
* An equipment shutoff valve with 1/8" NPT tap is an ac­ceptable alternative to test gauge connection. Purchase the optional equipment shutoff valve from your dealer.
8
)
SuperiorFireplaces.us.com
For propane/LP units, the installer must supply an external regulator. The external regulator will reduce incoming gas pressure. Y ou must reduce incoming gas pressure to between 1 1" and 14" of water . If you do not reduce incoming gas pres­sure, appliance regulator damage could occur. Install external regulator with the vent pointing down as shown in Figure 1 1. 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 appli­ance. 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 appli­ance (see Figure 12, Page 9).
IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoff valve in an acces- sible 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 appliances.
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 appliance valves.
WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.
We recommend that you install a sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 12. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and appliance. Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into appliance controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, appliance may not run properly.

WARNING: Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean may result in sooting and property damage.
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 appliance 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. T o 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 31, Page 17).
3. Blow air through the ports/slots and holes in the burner.
4. Check injector holder located at end of 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 pilot assembly also. Additional cleaning may be needed for proper pilot operation based on use/lack of use. A yellow tip on the pilot fl ame may indicate dust and dirt in the pilot assem- bly. There is a small pilot air inlet hole about from where the pilot fl ame comes out of pilot assembly (see Figure 32). With unit off, lightly blow air through air inlet hole. You may blow through a drinking straw if compressed air is not available.

LOGS
• If you remove logs for cleaning, refer to Installing Logs and Volcanic Stone, Page 11, to properly replace logs.
• Replace log(s) if broken or chipped (dime-sized or larger).
MAIN BURNER
Periodically inspect all burner fl ame holes with appliance running. All slotted burner fl ame holes should be open with fl ame present. All round burner fl ame holes should be open with a small blue ame present. Some burner fl ame holes may become blocked by debris or rust, with no fl ame present. If so, turn off appliance and let cool. Remove blockage, blocked burner fl ame holes will create soot.
WARNING: The injector holders (air shut-
ters) are not adjustable. Do not move injector holders from their original positions.

IHP will also pay IHP prevailing labor rates, as determined in its sole discretion, incurred in repairing or replacing such components. THERE ARE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS to this Limited Three Year Warranty as described herein.

IHP will not be responsible for: (a) damages caused by normal wear and tear, accident, riot, fi re, fl ood or acts of God; (b) damages caused by abuse, negligence, misuse, or unauthorized alteration or repair of the Product affecting its stability or performance (The Product must be subjected to normal use.
