9.1 Electrical Specifications
WARNING: AN OPTIONAL COMPONENT CONNECTION IS FOR LOW
VOLTAGE BATTERY OR DIRECT CURRENT ONLY. DO NOT CONNECT TO
120 OR 240 VOLTS AC.
This appliance, 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, or the Canadian Electrical
Code, CSA C22.1.
•
Determine if the appliance uses an electronic ignition system or
continuous pilot ignition system (millivolt) by locating gas valve
and its controls. Access the gas valve by opening the control
compartment access panel. When finished accessing the control
compartment, set the access panel back into position.
•
Appliances with the standing pilot ignition system are equipped
with a black piezo igniter button. Appliances with electronic

9.2 Wiring Requirements
9.2.1 Electronic Ignition System
•
The IFC System Module requires 120VAC power supply and/or
batteries to operate. Using the battery back-up will operate the
burner only. Optional components will not function on battery
back up power.
•
If desired, a thermostat or a wall switch may be installed for
main burner operational control using low-voltage wires (not
included).
•
It is optional to disable the main ON/OFF rocker switch operating
the main burner by disconnecting the wires from the control
•
If the rocker switch wires are not disconnected, the main ON/OFF
rocker switch must be in the OFF position for proper operation
of optional controls. If the main ON/OFF rocker switch is ON,
the main burner will operate until it is turned OFF by the rocker
switch. The thermostat/wall switch components will not turn the
main burner off if the main burner has been turned on by the
rocker switch.
•
If a wall-mounted ON/OFF control or thermostat is to be used,
mount it in a convenient location on a wall near the fireplace.
Follow instructions included with assembly.
•
If an optional component is to be used, run low-voltage wires
from control module to the location of component.

CAUTION: Do connect high voltage (115V) wire to the gas valve.
•
The millivolt gas valve system does not require 110-120 VAC
supply to operate.
•
If desired, a thermostat or a wall switch may be installed for
main burner operational control using low-voltage wires (not
included).
•
It is optional to disable the rocker switch operating the main
burner by disconnecting the wires from the back of the gas valve
•
If the rocker switch wires are not disconnected, the ON/OFF
rocker switch must be in the OFF position for proper operation
of optional controls. If the ON/OFF rocker switch is ON, the main
burner will operate until it is turned OFF by the rocker switch.
The thermostat/wall switch components will not turn the main
