PLACEMENT IN A FIREPLACE WITH A RESTRICTIVE BARRIER 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THIS GAS LOG SET

The following are guidelines for placing a VWF log set in a fi replace that has a restrictive barrier along the bottom front 

opening of the fi replace. Some examples of barriers are glass/screen door frames and sunken/recessed fi replaces.

Glass door frames 

with adjustable 

louvers should have 

the lovers

 fully open 

while the unit is in 

operation. 

Height of restrictive barrier 

caused by glass door frames, 
recessed fi replaces, etc. from 

the base or bottom surface of the 

unit. 

(Refer to Table).

The log set should be 
placed against or as near 
as possible to the rear wall 
of the fi replace/fi rebox. 

Depth of fi replace/fi rebox. 

(Refer toTable).

NOTE: Non combustible material such as 
refractory brick may be used to line the 
fl oor of the fi replace in order to raise the 
height of the gas log set in relation to a 
restrictive barrier. 

X

Barriers such as the bottom of a glass door frame placed in front of a gas log set can 
change the air fl ow characteristics of the fi replace which in turn can cause the unit to 
overheat and malfunction. Any deviation from the installation guidelines on this sheet 
will potentially void the warranty. 

W

ARNING

If the fi replace has a restrictive barrier 
and is equipped with a remote receiver, 
it  must  be  placed  outside  or  the 
combustion chamber. See “Installing 
Receiver” on page 21.
