All media (i.e. lava rock, lava stones, lava boulders and 

fire glass) have the potential of thermal spalling.  This is a 

process that may occur when media is wet and moisture 

gets trapped inside of the material due to rapid temperature 

differences.  When this happens the media has the 

potential to crack or “pop” outside the fireplace. Heavy 

rains, high humidity and the presence of moisture can 

contribute to this process.

1.  This appliance is configured from the factory only as 

Natural gas.  It appliance can be converted to LP gas. 

2.  Do not place Propane (LP) supply tanks inside any 

unapproved structures. Locate propane tanks outdoors 

if unsure.

3.  This fireplace is to be used only outdoors in a well 

       ventilated space and shall not be used in a building, 

       garage, or any other enclosed area.

4.  Do not use this fireplace as a wood burning fireplace.  

Use only high temperature media approved for use with 

this fireplace.

5.  Do not use this fireplace to cook or burn paper or other 

objects.

6.  Do not use if exposed to or under water.  Immediately 

call a qualified service technician to inspect the 

       fireplace and replace any part of the control system     

       and any gas control which has been under water.

7.  Turn fireplace OFF and let cool before servicing.  Only 

a qualified service person should perform service. 

ALWAYS USE CAUTION WHEN USING THE FIREPLACE

 

Extra caution should be taken when lighting a fireplace 

when heavy rains, high humidity and moisture are present.  

Light the fireplace and leave the area while the heat 

dissipates any moisture out of the media.  We strongly 

recommend that during this drying out time that you monitor 

the fireplace from a distance.  This drying out period should 

be no less than 30 minutes.  Continue monitoring the flame 

from a safe distance to ensure that all popping has ceased 

before fully enjoying the fire. 

CAUTION:

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
