outside of your home in several ways. It
may vent through the roof (vertical) or it
may vent to an outside/exterior wall (hori

important to allow for proper operation.

very carefully for either vertical or horizontal
applications.

of your house provided all local codes and
these installation instructions are followed.

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.

(fireplace and venting) is a balanced and
sealed gas operating unit. It requires ap

time before the flame pattern stabilizes.
