Electrical Requirements
This appliance requires 120 VAC, 4 amps for operation of
the Blower, Accent Lamp, and Remote Control functionality.
This appliance power supply must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the current ANSI/NFPA 70,
National Electrical Code or CSA C22.1-Canadian Electri-
cal Code.
Do not disconnect the lamp and fan power cords from
the appliance power supply (Fan Control Module). Use
the rocker switch to control power to these parts.
Always turn off the main power supply at the Fan Con
-
trol Module when performing routine service on this
appliance.
NOTE: Fireplace control components may be adversely
affected by other electrical controls that share the

Fireplace Location
In selecting a location for the fireplace, consider the
following points:
1) Heat distribution
2) Vent termination requirements
3) Gas supply routing
4) Traffic areas, furniture, draperies, etc.
5) 120V electrical service availability.
This fireplace may be located on or near conventional
construction materials, however, proper clearance to
combustibles must be maintained in order to provide
adequate air circulation around the appliance. Follow the
framing and clearance specifications exactly.
The clearances specified in this manual are the mini-
mum requirements established as a result of safety test-
ing. A combustible material is anything that can burn; i.e.
sheet rock , wall paper, wood, fabrics, etc. These surfaces
are not limited to those that are visible and also include
materials that may be located behind non-combustible
materials.
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a
material, consult your local fire officials. “Fire-resistant”
materials are considered to be combustible. They may be
difficult to ignite, but will burn. “Fire-rated” sheet rock is
also considered combustible.
