MPORTANT:
The efficiency rating of this appliance is a product thermal efficiency rating determined under
continuous operating conditions and was determined independently of any installed system.
NOTE: For high altitude installations consult the local gas distributor or the authority having jurisdiction for proper rating methods.
1. Run the gas line. Gas line holes are positioned on both sides of the fireplace for gas line connection. An accessible shut
off valve (included) must be installed up stream from the regulator.
NOTE: Do not run the incoming gas line in a manner that would obstruct the operation of the fan, if used.
2 . This fireplace is designed to accept either a 3/8" or 1/2" gas line approved for gas appliances. Consult local building codes
to properly size the gas supply line leading to a 3/8" reduction.
