Sanctuary 1 Fire Feature
REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL MODELS
1. Only non-combustible materials should come in direct contact with any part of the fire feature. If the area underneath should
is a flat level combustible surface according to the clearances specified in this manual on page 5.
2. Refer to the NFPA54 (National Fuel Gas Code) for proper pipe sizing. See Table 4 on page 6.
3. Determine the model fire feature you are preparing to install (Refer to page 4).
4. Follow the local code requirements for the gas type being used. This fire feature should be installed in accordance
with local codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, with the latest National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1 NFPA54 or CSA B149.1, Natural and Propane Installation Code in Canada.
5. Fire features create high temperatures, it is very important to have any combustibles at a safe distance.
6. NOTICE
:
Proper ventilation is built into the concrete fire feature. Do not bury or enclose or conceal the bottom of the
fire feature into earth, other type media that could block ventilation necessary for this product.
7. These fire features are designed for
outdoor use only
. They are
NOT
approved for any indoor use.
8. Each fire feature is designed to have lava rock or glass media completely covering the burner, so that the burner is
not visible. Do not cover more than 1” above the top of the covered burner. When purchasing lava rock use minimum
of 1 to 2-inch diameter as a base to fill the burner pan.
DO NOT COVER THE PILOT HOOD WITH ANY ROCK OR
MEDIA.
9. Gas lines and fittings must be installed into the non-combustible structure. All gas connections must be leak tested
before installation of the fire feature. Soapy water leak detection is required before regular use of the fire feature.
10. Do not use material that will absorb moisture over time and will not release this moisture quickly. Moisture can boil
in this material and can rapidly break apart and cause damage or personal injury.
11. Never leave any other combustible material on top of the fire feature. This could cause unsafe operation of this
system and damage to the component that will not be covered under our warranty.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS OF FIRE FEATURES
HIGH ELEVATION INSTALLATION
This appliance is listed for elevations from 0- 4500 feet in Canada and the U.S. If elevation exceeds 4500 feet it may be
necessary to decrease the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a smaller size. Input should be reduced
4% for each 1000 feet beyond the 4500 feet above sea level. Check with your local gas utility for assistance in
determining the proper orifice in your location. In some cases the heating value may already be reduced and downsizing
the orifice may not be necessary. Refer to NFPA54 Table E.1.1(d) for high altitude orifice sizing.
VENTILATION
Ventilation is built into the bottom of Sanctuary 1 fire
feature. No additional vents are required.
WARNING
:
DO NOT BURY THE BOTTOM OF THE SANCTUARY 1
ENCLOSURE INTO EARTH OR OTHER TYPE OF MEDIA
AND NEVER BLOCK THE VENTS. THIS WILL
OBSTRUCT AIR FLOW VENTILATION AND VOID
FIREGEAR WARRANTY.
