INSTALLING VENTED APPLICATIONS
Manual and milli-volt controlled gas logs may be installed as a vented decorative log set in compliance with

• Have the fireplace floor and chimney professionally cleaned to remove ashes, soot, creosote or other obstructions.
Have this cleaning performed annually after installation.
• Seal any fresh air vents or ash clean-out doors located on floor or wall of fireplace. If not, drafting may cause pilot
outage or sooting. Use a heat-resistant seal-
ant.

vide a minimum 29 square inch flue opening.

room (check with a match or a smoke stick), reposition the damper clamp until
