PRESSURE TESTING FIREPLACE GAS CONNECTIONS
1. Open equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 16).
2. Open main gas valve located on or near gas meter for natural gas
or open propane/LP supply tank valve.
3. Make sure control knob of fireplace is in the OFF position.
4. Check all joints from equipment shutoff valve to gas control valve
(Remote-Ready Models) (see Figures 17 or 18). Apply noncor-
rosive leak detection fluid to all joints. Bubbles forming show a
leak.
5. Correct all leaks at once.
6. Light fireplace (see Operating Fireplace, page 15). Check all other
internal joints for leaks.
7. Turn off fireplace (see To Turn Off Gas to Appliance, page 16).
OPTIONAL WALL MOUNTED THERMOSTAT - GWMT1
(Remote-Ready Models Only)
WARNING: Read and follow installation instruc-
tions. Installation should be done by a qualified
installer familiar with low-voltage wiring procedures.
WARNING: Do not connect this thermostat to any
electrical source! Electrical shock and/or fire hazard
will occur.
1. Disconnect jumper wire from control valve (see Figure 19, page
14).
2. Connect one terminal of 25 ft. wire to “TPTH” terminal on control
valve (see Figure 19, page 14).
3. Connect remaining wire terminal to the “TH” terminal on the control
valve. Make sure that wire terminals are in the positions on your
unit as pictured in Figure 19.
4. Route the 25 ft. wire to a convenient location to mount your ther-
mostat (no outside wall).
IMPORTANT:
The wire may be shortened
but must not be lengthened.
The thermostat should be mounted 54" above the floor in a loca-
tion where there is good air circulation. Avoid heat sources such
as lamps, direct sunlight, fireplace or heat and air conditioning
ducts.
5. Gently remove the cover of the thermostat from the base. Grasp
the sides of the cover firmly and pull to separate from the base.
6. Feed the electrical wires through the rectangular slots on each side
of the base (see Figure 20, page 14).
WARNING: Do not connect the thermostat to a power
source. Electrical shock and/or a fire hazard will occur.
7. Connect one bare wire end to each terminal (“W” and “R”) of the
thermostat base (see Figure 21, page 14).
8. Install the base onto the wall with the provided screws.
9. Move the temperature adjustment back and forth to insure the
bimetal is free from restrictions.
