PRODUCT FEATURES

OPERATION

This  vent-free  fireplace  is  clean  burning.  It 

requires no outside venting. There is no heat 

loss out a vent or up a chimney. Heat is gen-

erated  by  both  realistic  flames  and  glowing 

embers. When used without the blower, the 

fireplace requires no electricity making it ideal 

for emergency backup heat.

SAFETY DEVICE

This  fireplace  has  a  pilot  with  an  Oxygen 

Depletion Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff 

system. The ODS/pilot is a required feature 

for vent-free room heaters. The ODS/pilot 

system shuts off the fireplace if there is not 

enough fresh air.

PIEZO IGNITION SYSTEM

This fireplace has a piezo ignitor. This sys

-

tem requires no matches, batteries, or other 

sources to light fireplace.

OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL 

ACCESSORY

There are four optional remote controls (not 

included) that can be purchased separately for 

this log heater:

•  wall switch

•  wall thermostat

•  hand-held ON/OFF remote

•  hand-held thermostat remote

See 

Accessories

, page 35.

BLOWER ASSEMBLY ACCESSORY

This fireplace includes a blower assembly. The 

blower operates thermostatically and features 

a variable speed control. The blower circulates 

heated air from the fireplace into the room.
