PRODUCT FEATURES
OPERATION
This vent-free fireplace is clean burning. It requires
no outside venting. There is no heat loss out a vent
or up a chimney. Heat is generated by both realistic
flames and glowing embers. When used without
the optional blower, the fireplace requires no elec-
tricity making it ideal for emergency backup heat.
SAFETY DEVICE
This fireplace has a pilot with an Oxygen Deple-
tion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The
ODS/pilot is a required feature for vent-free room
heaters. The ODS/pilot system shuts off the fire-
place if there is not enough fresh air.
PIEZO IGNITION SYSTEM
This fireplace has a piezo ignitor. This system re-
quires no matches, batteries, or other sources to
light fireplace.
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL
ACCESSORY
There are four optional remote controls (not included)
that can be purchased separately for this log heater:
• wall switch
• wall thermostat
• hand-held ON/OFF remote
• hand-held thermostat remote
See Accessories, pages 32 through 34.
OPTIONAL BLOWER ASSEMBLY
ACCESSORY
This fireplace accepts an optional blower assem-
bly (not included). The GA3650T Series blower
operates thermostatically and features a variable
speed control. The GA3750 Series operates manu-
ally and also features a variable speed control. The
blower circulates heated air from the fireplace into
the room. Use of blower is optional. See Accesso-
ries, pages 32 through 34.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION
AND VENTILATION
WARNING: This heater shall
not be installed in a confined
space or unusually tight con-
struction unless provisions are
provided for adequate combus-
tion and ventilation air. Read
the following instructions to in-
sure proper fresh air for this
and other fuel-burning appli-
ances in your home.
Today’s homes are built more energy efficient than
ever. New materials, increased insulation, and new
construction methods help reduce heat loss in
homes. Home owners weather strip and caulk
around windows and doors to keep the cold air out
and the warm air in. During heating months, home
owners want their homes as airtight as possible.
