PRoDUcT FEATURES
These are a few facts that can help you understand and enjoy your
direct-vent fireplace:
• The venting system may be routed to the outside of your home
in several ways. It may vent through the roof (vertical) or it may
vent to an outside/exterior wall (horizontal). The vent pipe instal
-
lation is very important to allow for proper operation. You must
follow the venting instructions very carefully for either vertical
or horizontal applications.
• This fireplace may be installed in any room of your house
provided all local codes and these installation instructions are
followed.
• The blower requires electricity if installed and if you plan to
install the blower at a later date, do not forget to wire the outlet
at the bottom of the fireplace when framing.
• The electronic ignition creates spark to ignite the pilot light. It
does not require any matches, batteries or any other sources of
ignition to light the pilot.
• Each time you turn on your fireplace, you may notice some
amount of condensation on the inside of the fireplace glass. This
is normal and will disappear after 10-20 minutes of operation.
• Your direct-vent gas fireplace system (fireplace and venting) is a
balanced and sealed gas operating unit. It requires approximately 10-
20 minutes of operating time before the flame pattern stabilizes.
