CODE REQUIREMENTS
It is the responsibility of the installer to consult with the
local municipality and to FOLLOW ALL LOCAL CODES
concerning the installation and operation of the fire feature.
When the appliance is for connection to a
fixed piping system, the installation must
conform with local codes, or in the absence
of local codes with the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1·NFPA54; National Fuel
Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA
B149.1; or Propane Storage and Handling
Code, CSAB149.2, as applicable.
The appliance when installed, must be
electrically grounded in accordance with
local codes, or in the absense of local
codes, with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70; or the Canadian Electrical
Code, CSA C22.1, if applicable.

LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS
All appliances, match lit kits, spark ignition, and electronic
ignition systems are designed and intended for outdoor
use only.
For electronic ignition models, there must be an electrical
shutoff (wall switch or breaker) on the exterior of the appli-
ance or on adjacent structure to allow for emergency shut-
down and maintenance. Distance may be determined by
local code.
All appliances must have a gas shutoff located outside of the
appliance to allow for emergency shutoff and maintenance.
Select a location where the appliance can be attended during
operation. Never leave an operating appliance unattended
or by someone not familiar with its operation or emergency
shutoff locations.
Appliances may create very high temperatures — combus-
tibles must be located far enough away that there is no risk
of ignition.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that material such as
granite, marble or other dense stone be kept an appropriate
distance away from flame due to risk of cracking. Manufactur-
er is not responsible for damage to any enclosure material for
any reason.
FIRE PIT CLEARANCES
• 36" horizontally from any combustible structure or
materials.
• Overhead clearance should be a minimum of 120"
from combustible structures or materials.
• Choose a location that allows easy access for installa-
tion and maintenance of the fire feature.
• Pick a location that allows sufficient horizontal room
to enjoy the appliance while allowing a safe distance
from the heat and flame.
• Always consult with local municipality regarding any
local code requirements.
• See Clearance Diagram on page
8.
The enclosure must be constructed on a stable surface and
must be level.
For models with electronic ignitions, the control/valve box
must be above grade with adequate drainage to prevent
water exposure to the controls inside the box. Additionally,
the weight of the burner system must not be supported by or
rest upon the control valve/box. A plate, pan or other surface
should be used to support the weight of the burner system.
Blocks, bricks, or metal collars (L-brackets) can be used to
build a support for the system plate or pan. Larger plates
and pans should include additional support to avoid
bowing. A center support (using blocks, bricks or other
non-combustible materials) is recommended for round
or square plates and pans over 30" and for rectangular
plates or pans over 40".
Warming Trends Burners, Ignitions, Media and other Acces-
sories may be installed in Outdoor Fireplaces. The clearances,
materials, venting and construction standards for Outdoor
Fireplaces may be determined by Local or National Codes.
Such Codes may incorporate or defer to the recommenda-
tions or requirements of the Outdoor Fireplace Manufacturer
or the party designing the Fire Place. It is the installer’s respon-
sibility to ensure conformance to applicable local standards.

Gas Inlet Pressures
The installer is responsible for using the correct fuel lines
and/or regulation to provide gas to the fire feature within the
specified minimum and maximum gas inlet pressures below:
