INSTALLATION
Continued
We recommend that you install a sediment trap in supply line as
shown in Figure 4, page 5. 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. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps
them from going into log set controls. If sediment trap is not
installed or is installed wrong, log set may not run properly.
WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant
to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.

WARNING: Test all gas piping and connections
for leaks after installing or servicing. Correct all
leaks at once.
WARNING: Never use an open flame to check for
a leak. Apply a mixture of liquid soap and water to all
joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. Correct all leaks
at once.
CHECKING GAS CONNECTIONS
Pressure Testing Gas Supply Piping System
Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
1.
Disconnect log set and its individual equipment shutoff valve
from gas supply piping system.
2.
Cap off open end of gas pipe where equipment shutoff valve
was connected.
3.
Pressurize supply piping system by either using compressed air or
opening main gas valve located on or near gas meter.
4.
Check all joints of gas supply piping system. Apply mixture of
liquid soap and water to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.
5.
Correct all leaks at once.
6.
Reconnect log set and equipment shutoff valve to gas supply.
Check reconnected fittings for leaks.
Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)
1.
Close equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 5).
2.
Pressurize supply piping system by either using compressed air or
opening main gas valve located on or near gas meter.
3.
Check all joints from gas meter to equipment shutoff valve (see
Figure 5). Apply mixture of liquid soap and water to gas joints.
Bubbles forming show a leak.
4.
Correct all leaks at once.
HEARTH PAN INSTALLATION
If using propane/LP gas, see Propane/LP Gas Conversion before
installing hearth pan.
1.
Place the burner pan assembly in the center of the fireplace
floor. Make sure the front of pan faces forward.
2.
Thread the gas supply fitting to the fireplace gas supply pipe.
Adjust to most convenient position.
3.
Install the gas connector tube to the gas supply fitting. Carefully
shape tube to attach to inlet fitting. Be careful not to cause
kinks in tube.
4.
Test for leaks following instructions under Testing Burner for
Leaks, page 10.
5.
Retighten and adjust the location of the gas control as neces-
sary. The gas control should be level, with the control rod to
the front.

Hearth Pan Installation
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 a clogged burner injector.
