JUNCTION BOX WIRINg INSTALLATION
Caution: All wiring should be done by a qualified electrician and
shall be in compliance with all local, city and state building codes.
Before making the electrical connection, make sure that the main
power supply is disconnected. The firelace, when installed, must
be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA 70 (latest edition).

A factory installed junction box is located at the lower right corner
inside the firebox bottom cavity. Wiring must be fed to the junction
box through the outer wrap of the fireplace, then connected as
required inside the junction box as directed above. Refer to the
instructions above to determine what wiring is needed depending
on what valve system you have, and whether or not the optional
Accent Light kit will be installed.
It is recommended that approximately 6” of wiring be left in the
junction box to allow for connections. For wiring detail, refer to
Figure 12.

120 Volt electrical requirements will depend on which model
fireplace is installed.
For VFLL(38,48)FP30L series millivolt operated system:
Wiring is only needed if adding the LK5 Accent Light accessory.
Follow the wiring instructions included with the LK5 to connect
this optional accessory through the junction box to a wall switch.
For VFLL(38,48)FP90L series “IP” operated system:
The
suggested 120V electrical requirements include installation of
the electrical receptacle into the junction box located at the lower
right corner inside the firebox bottom cavity. This will be used to
plug in the AC/DC Adapter that provides power to the electronic
valve system.
NOTE:
If an LK5 Accent Light kit is to be installed, a separate
120V line will be needed to connect the light kit wiring directly to
a wall switch.
See Figure 15.
It is recommended to move the fireplace to its final location or
near it before installing electrical wire or connecting gas lines.
1. To access and install the junction box and wiring, begin by
removing the burner cover. Lift it straight up off of the burner
and set aside.
See Figure 16.
For VFLL(38,48)FP90 Units:
Remove the heat shield and disconnect the wire to the
switch on the heat shield.

NOTE - for Porcelain Kits:
Remove painted burner cover and
replace with porcelain burner cover. Never use more than one
burner cover.
2. Remove the five 5/16” Hex screws that hold down the
complete burner and valve assembly. There are three screws
on the front bottom flange, and two on the back bottom
flange, near the ends.
See Figure 17.
