DO NOT PROCEED WITH OPERATION OF THIS FIREPLACE 

UNLESS BURNER "CYCLES" ON/OFF WITHOUT DELAYS! 

 

CHECKING FOR NORMAL BURNER (S) IGNITION CHARACTERISTICS 

Once the conversion to LPG and all the above steps have been completed, light the main burners. 
Turn Gas Dial counterclockwise to "ON" then set Thermostat or push Main Burner ON/OFF switch to turn on burners.  
Main burner should now light IMMEDIATELY and flame should not "lift" off burner.  If there is any delay in ignition or if 
flame is "lifting off" burner, turn off burner and carefully check for proper installation of logs/coals, vent system and proper 
pilot flame impingement on burner and thermopile.  Logs or coals must not block pilot flame or main burner flame.  Vent 
system must be leak proof. 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 

ATTACHING LPG CONVERSION LABELS AND HIGH ALTITUDE DERATION LABEL 

Two printed informational labels are included with the LPG Conversion Kit. Attach these two labels to the left side surface 
of this insert adjacent to the Serial Number Plate. If you are derating this appliance at a high altitude, also attach the High 
Altitude Deration Label, supplied in the Owner’s Manual Packet, to this same surface adjacent to other labels. 
Prior to attaching the labels, fill in all the information that is requested in these labels. 
 

For installations from 610-1370 meters (2000-4500 ft.) the orifice sizes (DMS) for natural and propane gas are _54_ and 
_55_, respectively.  See data plate for additional information.  For high altitude installations consult the local gas distribu-
tor or the authority having jurisdiction for proper rating methods.  If the installer must convert the unit to adjust for varying 
altitudes, the information sticker must be filled out by the installer and adhered to the appliance at the time of conversion."

GAS LEAK TEST REQUIREMENT:  

It is the responsibility of the installer/service person to assure 

that each and every gas connection and supply tubing that are a part of this fireplace are leak proof.  
The  qualified/  certified  individual  connecting  the  gas  supply  line, performing  pressure  tests  or  per-

forming any service to this fireplace is required to perform a THOROUGH LEAK TEST on ALL gas fit-
tings that are a part of this appliance or the gas supply line connection using soap-water solution or a 
calibrated combustible gas detector.  Failure to perform this leak test may lead to a house fire and/or 

an explosion.  Mendota is not responsible for any damages due to an Installer’s failure to conduct a 
leak test and verify that all connections and supply lines are leak proof.

 

 

WARNING: Do not operate appliances with glass front removed, cracked, or broken.  Re-

placement of glass should be done a licensed or qualified service person. 

 

Note:  Consult the local or national installation code(s) to assure that adequate combustion 

and ventilation air is available.
