THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND
SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER

  to conform with

local codes. Installation practices vary from region to re-
gion and  it is important to know the specifics that apply to
your area.
The installation must conform with Local codes or in the
absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1/INFPA 54 in the United States or CSA B149.1,
Natural and Propane Installation code in Canada.
The fireplace and its individual shutoff valve must be dis-
connected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in ex-
cess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The fireplace must be isolated
from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the
gas supply piping  system at test pressures equal to or
less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
When the fireplace is installed directly on combustible
material other than wood flooring, the fireplace shall be
installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width
and depth.

FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN
TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUAL-
ITY!

  Maximum input is 40,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and

propane. When the fireplace is installed at elevations above
2,000ft, and in the absence of specific recommendations
from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certified
high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4%
for each additional 1,000ft.

It is highly recommended to protect the logs from mois-
ture (rain, snow). Cover the firebox when not in use.
This fireplace is only for use with the type of gas indi-
cated on the rating plate. This fireplace is not convert-
ible for use with other gases, unless a certified kit is
used.

Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water
column for natural gas and 11 inches water column for
propane. Maximum inlet gas pressure is 7 inches water
column for natural gas and 13 inches water column for
propane. Manifold pressure under flow conditions is 3.5
inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water
column for propane.

No external electricity (110 volts or 24 volts) is required
for the gas system operation.

Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cool-
ing down cycles are normal and are to be expected.

Use only accessories designed for and

listed with your specific fireplace.
