pulled all the way forward and completely to the
left or right against the corner posts.
6.
If wall-mounted ON/OFF control or thermo-
stat is to be used, mount it in a convenient
location on a wall near the fireplace.

. If an optional control is to be used, wire it in
the low voltage circuit as shown in
Figure
47.
NOTE:
The supplied 15 feet of 2 conductor wire
has one end of each conductor connected to
the gas valve circuit and the other end of each
conductor placed loose inside the bottom
compartment.

Step 7. CONNECTING GAS LINE
Make gas line connections. All codes require a
shut-off valve mounted in the supply line.
Figure
50
illustrates two methods for connecting the
gas supply. The flex-line method is acceptable
in the U.S., however, Canadian requirements
vary depending on locality. Installation must
be in compliance with local codes. A sediment
trap is recommended in the gas piping within
the home to prevent moisture and debris in the
line from damaging the valve.
These appliances are equipped with a gas flex
line for use (where permitted) in connecting the
unit to the gas line. A gas flex line is provided
to aid in attaching the direct vent appliance to
the gas supply. The gas flex line can only be
used where local codes permit. Refer to
Figure
50
for flex line description. The flex line is rated
for both natural and propane gas. A manual
shut off valve is also provided with the flex line.
The gas control valve is located in the lower
control compartment.
To access the valve open the lower control
compartment door
(see
Figure 51
)
by lifting
up approximately 1/2" and then swinging the
door open. (The door is hinged at the bottom).
Remove the bottom compartment door by
sliding the hinge pin, located at the door’s left
side, to the right until it disengages from the
left corner post hole. Pull the door diagonally
to the left, away from the fireplace.
The millivolt control valve has a 3/8" (10 mm)
NPT thread inlet port. The electronic control
valve has a 1/2" (13 mm) NPT thread inlet
port and is fitted with a 1/2" x 3/8" (13 mm x
10 mm) NPT fitting.
Secure all joints tightly using appropriate
tools and sealing compounds (ensure propane
resistant compounds are used in propane
applications).
All codes require a shut-off valve mounted
in the supply line. The orientation of the
shut-off valve should face the front.
Figure
50
illustrates two methods for connecting the
gas supply. A sediment Trap is recommended
to prevent moisture and debris in the gas line
for damaging the valve.
WARNING
Electronic models of these appli-
ances are equipped with a three-
prong (grounding) plug utilized
in connecting the electronic
components to the junction box
in the lower compartment. This
grounding plug provides protec-
tion against shock hazard and
should be plugged directly into
the properly grounded three-
prong receptacle. DO NOT cut
or remove the grounding prong
from the plug.
