Operation
This vent-free fireplace is clean burning. It requires no outside venting. There is no heat loss out
a vent or up a chimney. Heat is generated by both realistic flames and glowing embers. When
used without the blower, the fireplace requires no electricity making it ideal for emergency
back-up heat.
Safety Device
This fireplace has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion Sensor Shutoff System (ODS). The ODS/
pilot is a required feature for vent-free room heaters. The ODS system shuts off the fireplace if
there is not enough fresh air.
Piezo Ignition System
This fireplace has a piezo ignitor. This system requires no matches, batteries, or other sources to
light fireplace.
Blower Assembly (VSGF28PTB/CSGF28PTB)
This fireplace has a blower assembly. The blower operates thermostatically. The blower circu-
lates heated air from the fireplace into the room. Use of blower is optional. An optional blower
accessory is available for models VSGF28PV/ CSGF28PV.
Thermostat Control Models (VSGF28PTB/CSGF28PTB)
These fireplaces have a thermostat sensing bulb and a control valve. The thermostat controls the
heat output and flame height. This maintains a consistent room temperature. Even the lowest
setting provides realistic flames and glowing embers from two burners. Selecting higher
comfort settings allows fireplace to run longer, producing greater heat output. At lower comfort
settings, the fireplace will run less. This results in increased heating comfort. This can also
result in lower gas bills.
Variable Manual Control (VSGF28PV/CSGF28PV)
These fireplaces have a variable manual control valve which allows the user to choose the heat
setting that best suits his needs. Any setting between low and high may be selected by simply
turning the control knob.
