LOCATING THE CONTROLS
The control system for the Element4 fireplaces consist of three major components; the receiver, the transmitter and the gas
control. The transmitter is the remote control by which you operate the fireplace. The receiver and the gas control are at one end
of a 50”/1270
mm
line set. The other end of the line set is connected to the approximate center of the firebox. As shipped, the line
set is wrapped together and fixed beneath the fireplace. See Figure 14.
When locating the BDLE4 Access Door you must consider four types of access:
1. Air access. Room air must be allowed to flow freely through the door perforations, up through the site-built
platform and up into the enclosing fireplace chase.
2. Line set access. The line set is to be unwrapped which allows the controls to be placed within a radius of
approximately 50”/1270
mm
from the center of the fireplace,
as the cable runs
. Do not place the controls above the
level of the burner.
3. Physical access. Is the gas valve/receiver accessible for maintenance, etc.?
4. Wireless access. Can the signals from the transmitter (handheld, remote control) get to the receiver, inside the
access door?
MOUNTING THE CONTROLS
The BDLE4 Access Door requires a rough opening of 913/16”/250
mm
high by 615/16”/175
mm
wide. The door should be mounted with
the hinge on the left side. The door can also be mounted with the hinge side down.
- Carefully cut the black tie wraps which hold the line set to the bottom of the fireplace then carefully unwrap the line set. Lay
the line set out towards the location of the BDLE4 while avoiding kinks and bends with a radius of less than 2”/50
mm
. See Figure
14.
- Remove the four bolts holding the white door/frame cover to the frame, separate the frame and cover then mount the BDLE4
frame to the rough opening as shown in Figure 15.
- Replace the white door/frame cover onto the frame and secure it with the four bolts
- Fit the gas control tab into the bracket on the BDLE4 frame then tighten the bolt through the mounting bosses . See Figures 16
and 17
- Set the receiver into the BDLE4 bracket as shown in Figure 38 and connect the wall adapter.
When mounted, the BDLE4 should look like that shown in Figure 19.
