This appliance is a HEATING appliance and it becomes very hot when in operation.
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, DO NOT PLACE any object, furniture, draperies or other
item LESS THAN 36 inches (0.9 m) IN FRONT OF THE FIREPLACE.
CHILDREN and PETS
Radiant heat can heat surfaces such as the hearth in front of the replace to temperatures
that, although approved safe, can be quite uncomfortable to touch or step on—particularly
for children and pets. Children and pets should always be supervised when in the room
where the appliance is located. Remote control handset should be kept out of reach of
children. In the presence of children, we STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you install in front
of the replace: a re screen, doors or, to protect young toddlers, a “hearth gate”—see
Options on page 41.
HOT SURFACES
Be aware that, although safe, some combustible materials and nishes, even though
installed at listed clearances may, over time, discolor, warp or show cracks. The 1200DV
requires the installation of the cement board provided with the engine.
Convective heat will exit the unit and travel up the wall surface if not impeded. Protruding
mantels and projections can help direct the heat away from the wall. AVOID PLACING heat
sensitive items such as televisions, paintings, decorations, etc. above replaces or near the
edge of protrusions unless appropriate.

Safety and Warning Information
Operating your replace for the rst time
When operating your new replace for the rst time, some vapors may be released due to the burning of curing
compounds used in the manufacture of the appliance. They may cause a slight odor and could cause the ames
to be the full height of the rebox, or even slightly higher, for the rst few hours of operation. It is also possible that
these vapors could set off any smoke detection alarms in the immediate vicinity. These vapors are quite normal on
new appliances. We recommend opening a window to vent the room. After a few hours use, the vapors will have
disappeared and the ames will be at their normal height.

Hearth Requirements
General Hearth Considerations
SAFETY WARNING! The Ventana is a very effective radiant heater. The hearth/oor in front of
the heater can get very hot (in excess of 200ºF). Locating the unit raised above the hearth/oor
or adding one of the optional screen fronts or a generic freestanding screen in front of the unit
can greatly reduce hearth temperatures. Any hearth within 4 inches of the base of the heater
must be constructed of non-combustible materials (see diagrams in the following pages). Note
that some materials, although safe can degrade due to heat—take this into consideration when
choosing materials.
When the appliance
is installed directly on
carpeting, tile or other
combustible material
other than wood ooring,
the appliance shall be
installed on a metal or
wood panel extending the
full width and depth of the
appliance
Top of Finished Hearth
Must Be Flush With
Bottom of Heater to
accommodate some
optional mantels and
trims. See Option section
towards the end of this
manual for optional
accessories.
NOTE:
• Unit will need to be raised
in almost every case to
accommodate hearth or
combustible ooring.
• Non-combustible hearth
required if bottom of
replace is less than 4” from
combustible oor in front.
12
Hearth Requirements
Rules
1. Any hearth/oor in front of replace within 4 inches of the bottom of the unit must be non-combustible and project
a minimum distance as shown on page 14. The hearth/oor must have a non-combustible nish applied over the 1/2 inch insulation board provided with the engine. This insulation board acts as a thermal break.
2. Minimum hearth projection is determined by a combination of the height of the hearth above the surface of
combustible oor or carpet and the distance between the hearth and the bottom of the replace.
3. Combustible baseboards (1 inch thick or less) located on the wall are acceptable provided they are located below
the base of the raised replace.

Important Installer Notice – Weather Sealing &
Vapor Barriers
It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that vent installations
through exterior walls are caulked and weatherproofed in such
a manner as to:
• Prevent rain water from entering the wall from the weather
side by adequately caulking the outer vent plate to the exterior
wall surface.
• Prevent moisture inside the home from penetrating into the
wall structure by ensuring the inside wall plate is adequately
sealed to the inside vapor barrier.
• Prevent rain water and moisture from entering the walls by
sealing the joints between the outer vent tube and the inner
and outer wall plates.
We recommend the use of a high quality polyurethane sealant.

18 inches horizontal pipe.)
6. All horizontal pipe runs must be graded 1/4 inch per
foot upwards in the direction of the exhaust ow.
The nal pipe length, when terminating through the
wall may be graded downwards slightly to prevent
water migration.

MANY INSTALLATIONS REQUIRE A RESTRICTOR
for improved ame picture and performance, This unit
is supplied with one restrictor having four different
positions or settings. The level of restriction required
depends on the vertical rise in the venting system and,
to a lesser degree, the horizontal run and number of
elbows.
The amount of restriction is based on laboratory tests.
The ideal restrictor position may vary slightly, especially
when the vent pipe length is near the limits of the
acceptable congurations for each type of restrictor.
The chart on the previous page shows the vent
restrictor required relative to the length of the vent pipe.
To install the restrictor:
1. On an engine previously installed, open the panels
on each side of the window. Remove the window
skirt, the window, the logs, the right and rear top
brick panels.
2. According to the installation, look up the venting
chart on the previous page to know what position
the restrictor should be tted in.
3. Remove the screws (2) on each side of the venting
port.
4. Place the restrictor in the required position over the
two holes.
5. Fit the screws and tighten.
6. Continue the installation or, for an engine previously
installed, replace the right and rear top brick panels,
the logs, the window and the window skirt. Close the
side panels.

In a few unusual installations, the ame picture may
be improved by adjusting the aeration. The need for
adjustment should be determined only by operating the
appliance with the ceramic logs and window installed.
Increasing aeration will cause the ames to appear
more transparent and blue showing more ceramic log

Owner’s Information
WARNING: Your replace becomes very hot
when operating. Avoid placing decorating objects
sensitive to heat within 36 inches (0.9 m) around it.
Performance of LPG appliances may be affected by
the quality of commercial gas supplied in your area.
Operating Your Fireplace
For your safety, this appliance is tted with a ame
supervision device which will shut-off the gas supply
if, for any reason, the pilot ame goes out. This device
incorporates a xed probe, which senses the heat
from the pilot ame. If the probe is cool, the device will
prevent any gas ow unless manually lighting the pilot.
See full lighting instructions on page 39 of this manual.
Cleaning
Important - Glass cleaning - Mineral deposits
One of the by-products of the combustion process in a
gas appliance is a mineral which can show up as a white
lm on the ceramic glass of the viewing door.
The composition of the deposit varies widely from various
locations and also from time to time in the same location.
It seems this is associated with the varying sulfur content
of the gas. You may have the problem for a time and then
not see it for many months when it will reappear in your
area.
We have discussed this problem with ceramic glass
manufacturers and they cannot give us a denitive
answer to this problem. Dealers have tried various
cleaning products with varying results. The following
recommendations will not guarantee results in your
particular case.
NOTE: This is a problem beyond Miles Industries’
control and is not covered under warranty.
1. Clean the glass regularly as soon as you notice the
buildup (white lm). If the lm is left for a longer period
of time, it will bake on. It is then much harder, if not
impossible, to remove.
2. NEVER use an abrasive cleaner on the ceramic glass.
Any abrasion of the surface has the immediate effect
of compromising the strength of the glass. An emulsion
type cleaner is recommended.
3. Use a soft damp cloth to apply the cleaner. Dry the
glass with a soft, dry, preferably cotton cloth. Most
paper towels and synthetic materials are abrasive to
ceramic glass and should be avoided.
4. Our dealers have had good results from the products
listed below. We cannot, however, guarantee the
results of these products.
• BRASSO
• POLISH PLUS by KEL KEM
• COOK TOP CLEAN CREME by ELCO
• WHITE OFF by RUTLAND
• TURTLE WAX
Do not clean the glass while it is hot. Always securely
replace the window before lighting. If broken, the
glass pane may only be replaced as a complete
window unit as supplied by the manufacturer.
To remove the window for cleaning, locate the levers
on each side of the window towards the top of the
unit. Using your nger, pull the lever towards you and
unhook it from the window frame bracket. Gently pull
the top of the window outward. Lift the window out of
its bottom railing and set aside in a safe place to avoid
damage—see page 24.
Spring Loaded
Window Levers
To ret the window, place it in its bottom railing, push
its top against the rebox and, while holding it in place,
pull the side levers back into the window brackets.
Then, pull out the top of the window and release it to
insure the springs return it. Finally, apply light hand
pressure against the window frame sides to bed-in the
window seal—see page 29.
Soot or dust can be brushed from the ceramic logs
and rebox walls using a soft brush. Dust can also
be removed from the burner using a soft brush after
removing the ceramic logs. When cleaning, make
sure that no particles are brushed into the slots of the
burner.
