In Canada, mobile home installation may be vented horizontally or vertically. In the United States, it may only be installed
vertically. See "Vertical Venting" or "Horizontal Air Terminal Installation" for installation.
The fireplace is equipped with two 1/4" diameter holes located in the front left and right corners of the base. For mobile
home installations, the fireplace must be fastened in place. Use #10 hex head screws, inserted through the holes in the
base to secure. It is recommended that the fireplace be secured in all installations.

Proceed once the vent installation is complete.
1. Route a 3/8" N.P.T. black iron gas line, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or equivalent to the fireplace.
2. For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a convenient
location. Route 2-strand (solid core) millivolt wire through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of the unit.
The recommended maximum lead length depends on wire size:
WIRE SIZE MAX. LENGTH
14gauge 100 feet
16gauge 60 feet
18gauge 40 feet
Attach the two leads to terminals 1 and 3 located on the gas valve. FIGURE 20.
3. Install rigid black pipe, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or, if local codes permit, a 3/8" flex connector and shutoff valve to
the gas line and the fireplace gas valve. Seal and tighten securely. An adapter fitting is required between the gas valve
and the copper tubing or flex connector.
DO NOT KINK FLEX CONNECTOR. FIGURE 21.
4. Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution.
DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.
PURGE ALL GAS LINES WITH THE GLASS DOOR OF THE FIREPLACE REMOVED. ASSURE THAT A CONTINUOUS GAS
FLOW IS AT THE BURNER BEFORE RE-INSTALLING THE DOOR.
