A gas line or gas log lighter may be installed for the purpose of 

installing a vented or vent-free decorative gas appliance incorporat-

ing an automatic shutoff device and complying with the Standard 

for Decorative Gas Appliances for Installation in Vented Fireplaces, 

ANSI Z21.60 or American Gas Association draft requirements for 

Gas Fired Log Lighters for Wood Burning Fireplaces, Draft NO. 4 

dated August, 1993.
If you wish to install an unvented (vent-free) gas log set, only 

unvented gas log sets which have been found to comply with the 

standard for unvented room heaters, ANSI Z21.11.2 are to be installed 

in this fireplace.
Gas line hook up should be done by your supplier or a qualified 

service person.

Note:

 Before you proceed, make sure your gas supply is turned off.

Use only a 1/2" black iron pipe and appropriate fittings.
1.  Remove knockout indentation on refractory or firebrick wall 

located above refractory hearth floor. Knockout indentation must 

be firmly tapped with any solid object, such as a 1/2" dowel, until 

it is released. Remove fragmented portions of refractory (see 

Figure 22, page 14).

2.  Remove gas line cover plate located on either side of fireplace and 

pull out insulation from gas line conduit sleeve. Save insulation 

for reuse.

3.  Run a 1/2" black iron gas line into fireplace through rear at 

gas line conduit sleeve (if using a raised platform, add height). 

OPTIONAL GAS LINE INSTALLATION

VENTING INSTALLATION 

Continued

Figure 21 - Typical Residential Installations

Provide sufficient gas line into fireplace chamber for fitting 

connection (see Figure 23, page 14).

 

Note:

 Secure incoming gas line to wood framing to provide rigidity 

for threaded end.

4.  Repack insulation around gas line and into sleeve opening. Seal 

any gaps between gas line and refractory knockout hole with 

refractory cement or commercial furnace cement. Install gas 

appliance or cap off gas line if desired.

 CAUTION: All gas piping and connections must be 

tested for leaks after installation is completed. After 

ensuring that gas valve is on, apply soap and water 

solution to all connections and joints. Bubbles forming 

show a leak. Correct all leaks at once. DO NOT USE 

AN OPEN FLAME FOR LEAK TESTING AND DO NOT 

OPERATE ANY APPLIANCE IF A LEAK IS DETECTED. 

LEAK TESTING SHOULD BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED 

SERVICE PERSON.

Note: 

An IHP hood must be installed when using an unvented gas 

log set (see Accessories on page 19).

 WARNING: Do not operate an unvented gas log 

set in this fireplace with chimney removed.
