Burner System Location

1. The Burner system should be located towards the back and centered in the combustion chamber of the vented

fireplace. The burner system should be centered from left to right, with about an inch of space on either side.

Connecting Gas Supply to Burner Pan and Log Grate Placement

1. Place burner system in proper location.

2. Attach brass 3/8" to 1/2" gas inlet fitting to the 1/2" gas supply stub. (See Figure 2)

3. Carefully bend the flared tubing as needed to make the connection between the burner assembly and the gas 

inlet fitting. 

4. Next attach the flared tubing to the burner assembly first, then to the gas inlet fitting.

- Avoid kinking the flared tubing while bending. If tubing must be cut, use a tube cutter. Flare the cut end of the 

tube with a flaring tube.

5. Be certain all connections are tight and use pipe compound on all male threads to seal joints.

NOTE: 

The pipe compound must be resistant to the action of L.P. gas. Test all connections with a soapy water

solution with gas supply turned on. If bubbles appear on any connection, retighten and reset. Once it is 
determine there are no leaks whatsoever, turn off gas supply and move to next assembly step.
