INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE INTO THE FIREPLACE 

 

1-  Place the ADVANTAGE BURNER BURNER PAN ASSEMBLY 

into the fireplace.  The unit should be centered from both side to 
side, and front to back.  ( SEE FIGURE 4 & 5 ) 

2-  Bend a 3/8” gas line, with two ( 2 ) 3/8” brass, female flare fittings 

( included on some models ), to facilitate the gas connection, 
between the valve assembly, and the gas stub.     

 

BE CAREFUL!  Gas lines are easily kinked if bent too sharply. 

 
3-  Using an adjustable wrench, and turning in a clockwise direction, 

attach a 1/2” Female Flare X 3/8” Male Flare Brass Reducer 
Fitting ( included on some models ), to the gas stub.        

4-  Using two adjustable wrenches, and turning in a clockwise 

direction, attach one end of the gas line, to the brass reducer 
fitting that you have just installed on the gas stub. ( One wrench 
on the brass gas line fitting, and one wrench on the brass reducer 
fitting )  

5-  Using two adjustable wrenches, and turning in a clockwise 

direction, attach the other end of the gas line to the brass fitting 
on the valve assembly.  ( One wrench on the gas line fitting, and 
one wrench on the brass fitting on the valve assembly )  

 
BE CAREFUL!  Make sure all gas connections are snug, but DO NOT 
over tighten! 
 

6-  It is our recommendation that, at this point of the installation, 

lighting the pilot, and test ignition should take place.  Go to 
the section “OPERATION – UNITS WITH GAS CONTROL 
VALVES” ON PAGE 15.  

 

FOR UNITS WITH GAS CONTROL VALVES

, see “UNITS WITH 

REMOTE SYSTEMS” section, on page 11 and “LIGHTING 
INSTRUCTIONS WITH SAFETY PILOT” on page 16. 

 
7-  CHECK FOR LEAKS!  Apply soapy water to each connection and 

watch for bubbles.  If bubbles are seen, turn off the gas supply; 
retighten the connections, and CHECK AGAIN!  DO NOT use a 
lighted match or other source of ignition to check for leaks.  
Repeat this procedure until you are sure that there are no leaks in 
the gas connections. 

8-  When you are assured that there are no gas leaks present, you 

may proceed to the “ FINAL SET UP “ section, on page 13.
