• This fireplace may be installed in any room
of your house provided all local codes and
these installation instructions are followed.

on the inside of the fireplace glass. This
is normal and will disappear after 10-20
minutes of operation.

(fireplace and venting) is a balanced and
sealed gas operating unit. It requires ap

proximately 10-20 minutes of operating
time before the flame pattern stabilizes.
These are a few facts that can help you un

important to allow for proper operation.
You must follow the venting instructions
very carefully for either vertical or horizontal
applications.
