IMPORTANT:
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY

It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off
some expansion and/or contraction noises during the
start up or cool down cycle. Similar noises are found
with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine. It is
not unusual for your Temco Fireplace Products gas
fireplace to give off some odor the first time it is
burned. This is due to the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well ventilated
-open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your fireplace for at
least four (4) hours the first time you use it. If the
optional fan kit has been installed, place the fan switch
in the “OFF” position during this time.
The embers supplied with your fireplace are made
from a high grade rock wool and should be
handled carefully. Wash your hands immediately
after touching to avoid irritation. The embers must
be placed correctly in order to function properly.
Locating Your Fireplace
Island installation is possible as long as the horizontal
portion of the vent system does not exceed maximum

clearance must be maintained from the perpendicular
