Electrical Connection
Electrical connections should be performed by a qualified electrician as per local electrical codes.
This fireplace, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes
or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the
Canadian Electrical Code, CAN/CSA C22.1.
Incorrect wiring will damage controls.
This fireplace requires a 120V A.C. power supply for proper operation. The four (4) “AA” alkaline batteries
in the Battery Holder box located next to the gas controls are there for power outage backup. During a
power outage, the fireplace will continue to operate under battery power for up to two weeks. Battery
life will vary with the number of times the fireplace is used during the outage.
However, the built in accent lights, the optional amber lights and the optional convection air blowers
require 120V A.C. power to operate and will notwork if power is lost.
Electrical Requirements: 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 3 amp
