INSTALLATION
WARNING: The Massachusetts State Board requires
all installations be performed by a Licensed Plumber
or Gas Fitter. Massachusetts state code requires all
vent dampers be welded open or removed.
CAUTION: Do not remove the data plates attached
to the burner pan. The data plates contain important
warranty and safety information.
WARNING: Before installing in a solid fuel burning
fireplace, the chimney flue and firebox must be cleaned
of soot, creosote, ashes and loose paint by a qualified
chimney cleaner. Creosote will ignite if highly heated.
A dirty chimney flue may create and distribute soot
within the house. Inspect chimney flue for damage.
NOTICE: Installation, service, and repair of this ap-
pliance must be performed by a qualified installer,
service agency, company or gas supplier experienced
with this type of gas appliance. Only factory authorized
components listed in these instructions may be used
in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
and all codes and requirements of the authority hav-
ing jurisdiction. Any modifications to this kit, or use
of unauthorized components or accessory items will
void the manufacturer’s warranty, and may result in
a hazardous condition.
FLUE OPENING SPECIFICATIONS
Note:
This vented appliance must be installed only in a solid-fuel
burning fireplace with a working flue and constructed of noncom-
bustible material.
The charts in Figure 2 indicate technical information regarding the
installation of your gas log set. Please make sure that all of the
specifications shown are applicable before installation is attempted.
The fireplace must include a working flue and venting system with
the minimum openings shown in the Figure 2.
CHECK GAS TYPE
Use only natural gas. If your gas supply is not natural gas, you
must convert the appliance to propane/LP. Follow the instructions
on page 6.
If the fireplace does not have a gas supply shutoff valve, one must
be installed.
VENTING SPECIFICATIONS FOR INSTALLATION
The fireplace chimney flue and vent must be drafting properly.
To
check the vent for proper drafting: Light a tightly rolled newspaper on
one end and place it at the inside front edge of the fireplace. Observe
the smoke and be sure the vent is properly drawing it up the chimney.
If the smoke spills out into the room, extinguish the flame and remove
any obstruction until proper venting is achieved.
The chimney flue damper must be fixed open to provide a minimum
of 81 sq. in. of free air opening during operation of this log set. A
multipurpose damper clamp is provided to fix the damper in position.
The minimum flue sizes shown in Figure 2 are based on a 6' chimney
height using round pipe. Your minimum flue size will vary based on
input rate and chimney height. Refer to the
National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 6.6
, for details.
