Test gauge connections are provided on the 
front of the millivolt gas control valve, identi-
fi ed IN for the inlet and OUT for the manifold 
side.  A 1/8" NPT Test gauge connection 
is provided at the inlet and outlet side of 

 

the electronic gas control valve.

These appliances and their individual shut-off 
valves 

must be disconnected

 from the gas 

supply piping system during any pressure 
testing of that system at pressures 

greater 

than

 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa)

.

These appliances must be isolated from the 
gas supply piping system (

by closing their 

individual manual shut-off 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).

Orifi ce Sizes -  Sea Level to High Altitude
(All Models): 

These appliances are tested and 

approved for installations at elevations of 0-4500 
feet (0-1372 meters) above sea level using the 
standard burner orifice sizes (marked with an 
"*" in 

Table 7)

.  

At the time of installation, it must be determined 
if the appliance needs to be derated. Contact 
your local gas supplier for deration requirements 
for your area.

Deration -

 At higher elevations, the amount of 

BTU fuel value delivered must be reduced by 
either using gas that has been derated by the gas 
company or by changing the burner orifi ce to a 
smaller size as regulated by the local authorities 
having jurisdiction and by the (USA) National 
Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1 - latest 
edition or, in Canada, the CAN1-B149.1 and .2 
codes - latest edition.

Burn-in Period

During the fi rst few fi res of this appliance there 
will be some odor due to the curing of the 
paint and burning off of lubricants used in the 
manufacturing process. 

Depending on your use, the burn-in period may 
take a few hours or a few days.  

KEEP YOUR HOUSE WELL VENTILATED 
DURING THE CURING PROCESS.  THE ODOR 
AND HAZE EMITTED DURING THE CURING 
PROCESS CAN BE QUITE NOTICEABLE AND 
MAY SET OFF A SMOKE DETECTOR.

If an optional blower is installed, Do not turn it 
on during the Burn-In period. 

A white fi lm may develop on the glass front 
during the fi rst few fi res as part of the curing 
process.  The glass should be kept clean during 
the fi rst two weeks of use to prevent the fi lm from 
baking on (making it very diffi cult to remove).

Gas Controls / Control Compartment 
Access

NOTE: 

 The top louvered panel and the bottom 

louvered control panel door remove and install 
the same way as follows:

The gas controls can be found behind the control 
compartment access door. 

Removing Control Compartment Door:

Open the door by  gently liftint it upward until the 
hook catches on boths sides clear the locating 
slots. Then pull door out to remove.

On millivolt systems, the piezo igniter, HI/LO 
fl ame adjustment knob, and pilot and main 
gas OFF/ON control knob are located below 
the glass panel enclosure. The gas valve for 
electronic systems is also located below the 
glass enclosure panel. See 

Figure 1.

Reinstalling Control Compartment Door:

To reinstall, insert the hook catches on each 
side of the door into the corresponding slots 
in the control compartment opening, then 
gently push forward and side down until it 
locks in place.

Operation of millivolt and electronic gas con-
trol systems are different. Before lighting and 
operating your appliance determine if you have 
a millivolt or electronic appliance. Familiarize 
yourself with the gas control valve that your 
appliance uses. Refer to 

Figure 1 

for access 

to the gas control valve.

 

Millivolt Appliances 

-  Appliances with 

Millivolt systems will be fi tted with the gas 
control valve shown in 

Figures 4 or 5. 

 

Electronic Appliances

 - Appliances with 

electronic systems will be fi tted with the 
electronic valve shown in 

Figure 3. 

Millivolt Appliances - 

To light millivolt appli-

ances refer to the detailed lighting instructions 
found on 

Pages 17 & 18 

Millivolt appliance 

lighting instructions may also be found on the 
pull out lighting instruction labels attached to 
the gas control valve

.

Millivolt appliances are fi tted  with  an OFF/ON 
Rocker Switch located behind the control 
compartment access door, below the appli-
ance front glass enclosure panel (see 

Figure 1

  

for location).  Once the pilot is lit, the OFF/ON 
rocker switch will control the appliance OFF/ON 
burner operation.  To operate:  Toggle the switch 
between its ON and OFF positions.
