In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts:
•
Installation must be performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.
•
The chimney flue damper, when used with gas logs, will be welded open or completely removed.
•
A CO detector shall be installed in the room where the appliance is installed.
VENTED INSTALLATIONS
THE CHIMNEY DAMPER MUST BE WIDE OPEN AND FIXED IN A MANNER TO MAINTAIN A PERMANENT FREE
OPENING AT ALL TIMES AS OUTLINED ABOVE. THE AREA OF THE FLUE MUST BE NOT LESS THAN 1/10 THE AREA OF
THE FIREPLACE OPENING. THIS DECORATIVE GAS APPLIANCE MUST BE INSTALLED IN A FULLY VENTED METAL
OR MASONRY FIREPLACE WITH A WORKING FLUE THAT IS SAFE FOR BURNING A WOOD FIRE. THE FLUE MUST
BE FREE OF ANY OBSTRUCTIONS AND MUST EXHAUST ALL PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION. DAMPER AND GLASS
DOORS MUST BE FULLY OPEN BEFORE LIGHTING OR BURNING FOR PROPER VENTILATION AND TO
PREVENT HEAT DAMAGE TO THE VALVE.
GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The installation and the provisions for combustion and ventilation air must conform with
The National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA54
, or
The CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
latest edition.
WARNING! CHECK FOR PROPER VENTING
A properly sized, unobstructed chimney will normally vent all products of combustion. Any odor or smoke detected inside
the room is an indication that the flue is not functioning properly.
SHUT OFF THE BURNER IMMEDIATELY! THE CAUSE OF THE VENTING PROBLEM MUST BE DISCOVERED AND
CORRECTED BEFORE CONTINUED USE.
Continued use with improper venting may cause damage to your fireplace, room furnishings and could cause serious illness.
IF IMPROPER VENTING IS SUSPECTED,
IMMEDIATELY HAVE THE APPLIANCE AND CHIMNEY FLUE SERVICED.

WARNING:
Failure to position the parts in accordance with these diagrams or failure to use only parts specifically
approved with this heater may result in property damage or personal injury.
LEAK TEST PROCEDURES
WARNING: DO NOT use an open flame to test leaks!
Create a mixture of equal parts soap and water. Apply to all the joints of the pipe fittings from the gas supply to
the burner. Turn on the gas supply valve for no longer than 3-5 seconds. If bubbles appear in the soap solution
applied to the joints, there is a leak. Turn off the gas supply valve and tighten those fittings. Repeat the proce-
dure until no more bubbles appear. Test all joints. NOTE: Always perform a leak test any time the appliance has
been moved or disconnected from the gas supply line.
The minimum permanent free opening of the fireplace chimney or chimney damper must be
29 sq. inches
based upon a
minimum chimney height of at least 10 feet. Solid Fuels shall not be burned in a masonry or UL 127 factory built fire
place where an
CHILLBUSTER™
is installed.
