Installation and repair of the Serenity III Direct Vent

son. The appliance should be inspected before use and
at least annually by a qualified service person. More fre-

When operating your Harman Serenity III Gas Fire-
place, respect basic safety standards. Read these in-
structions carefully before you attempt to operate the
fireplace. Failure to do so may result in damage to prop-
erty or personal injury and may void the product war-
ranty.
Consult with your local building code agency and
insurance representative before you begin your installa-
tion to ensure compliance with local codes, including the
need for permits and follow-up inspections.
Several issues must be addressed when selecting a
suitable location for your Serenity III Gas Fireplace. Ob-
serving required clearances to combustible materials, the
proximity to a safe chimney or venting system location,
and the accessibility of the gas and electrical supply must
all be considered. In addition, selecting a location that
takes advantage of the building's natural air flow is also
desirable to maximize the heating effectiveness of the
fireplace. In many cases, this is a central location within
the building.

Direct Vent Gas Fireplace should be located out
of traffic and away from furniture and draperies.
Children and adults should be alerted to the
hazards of high surface temperatures and should
