INSTALLATION SAFETY INFORMATION
INSTALLATION SAFETY GUIDELINES:
• Carefully inspect the burner and log cartons for shipping damage. If any parts are missing or
damaged, call your dealer. Do not attempt to install the appliance unless all parts are in good
condition.
• Correct installation of the glass or the ceramic refractory log set and proper placement and
installation of the burner assembly, including ember placement and Lava Rock placement, are
imperative to safe operation of your set. Problems WILL occur if all items are not properly
installed. Reference the INSTALLATION section, LOG PLACEMENT.
• When installing in a wood-burning fireplace, center the appliance in the fireplace while making
certain that no part of the assembly protrudes (forward) beyond the face of the fireplace. DO
NOT PUSH THE UNIT ALL THE WAY TO THE BACK.
• If you use Lava Rock or glass for decorative use, do not allow these accessories into or onto any
part of the burner or on the logs. Lava Rock or glass or gems used to accessorize the vent-free
burner, should only be placed on the floor of the fireplace, in front of and to the sides of the
burner, but away from the controls.
• DO NOT PLACE logs or other accessories, such as wood chips, pine cones, or vermiculite, on
this appliance. These items will cause improper burning, sooting, and/or high levels of carbon
monoxide. Additional logs and/or accessories may be placed around the burner system, as long
as they do not interfere with the burning of your gas appliance.
• Due to high temperatures, this appliance should be located out of traffic and away from
furniture/draperies.
• A fireplace screen must be in place when this gas appliance is in operation. Unless other
provisions for combustion air are provided, the screen shall have an opening(s) for introduction of
combustion air.
• Connecting directly to an unregulated L.P. tank can cause an explosion.
• Special care is required if you are installing this unit into a SUNKEN FIREPLACE. You must raise
the fireplace floor to allow access to gas controls. This will ensure adequate airflow and guard
against sooting. Raise the fireplace floor using noncombustible materials.
• This product cannot be used in a bedroom.
