DE LUXE GAS GRATES / INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTION MANUAL

 

 

 

 

1.  General 

 

For best performance, Jetmaster De Luxe Gas Grates are designed to be installed within the 
appropriately  sized  Jetmaster  Universal  or  IGC  built-in,  or  Jetmaster  Hex,  Mynx,  Lynx  free-
standing fireplaces. 

This  type  of  gas  grate  can  also  be  installed  in  a  custom-build  fireplace  enclosure,  providing 

proper  provision  is  made for  exhausting  all gas fumes  and  potentially  a  lower  efficiency  heat 
output is accepted. 

In all cases, the provisions of these instructions must be fully complied with. 

 

 

2.  Gas Specification 

 

  The  gas  grate  must  be  used  in  conjunction  with  the  appropriate  gas  type  for  which  it  was 

manufactured, only.   LPG and NG gas grates are prepared either for use on the Highveld or in 

coastal regions. Check the markings on the outside of the box in which the grate is delivered to 
make sure you have the correct burner for your location. Do not take the Highveld burner to the 
coast or vice versa. Do not burn LP Gas on a Natural Gas burner or vice versa.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

Confirm that the gas supply and the gas grate are compatible.
