Access Panel
An access panel is not required (see notes below for exception), but it is
highly recommended
. It allows for access to the fireplace’s
gas and electrical components for servicing.
NOTE: An access panel at the fireplace is
required
for fireplaces with a power vent to allow access to the power vent
control box for servicing.
NOTE: An access panel is built into the inside wall of the Traditional series fireplace. See “Access Panel for Traditional
Series” for more information.
Access Panel Size and Location Recommendations:
Minimum of 10 inches x 10 inches in size
Located within 36 inches of the pilot to the side or back of the fireplace (see “Routing the Gas Line”)
The size and location of the access panel may vary, but in all cases, it must allow the technician to comfortably access and service
the fireplace’s gas and electrical components. These components are attached to the pilot on a flexible gas line and can be moved
within 36 inches of the pilot (located at the center front of the burner).
For ease of access, move the fireplace’s gas and electrical components as close to the access panel as possible
. If there is any
distance between the access panel and the gas and electrical components, the access panel size must be increased
accordingly.
Prior to installation, fireplace dealers/installers should work with the owner, builder, project architects and/or interior
designers to determine the best size and location of their access panel.
If an access panel cannot be incorporated, the alternative method of servicing the gas and electrical components is though the
fireplace. This procedure requires removing the glass panel(s) and interior design media, and lifting the grill, burner, and bottom
pressure release valve. This will increase service time and difficulty. An access panel is always preferred. Fireplace dealers/installers
are advised to consult with their clients regarding the advantages and disadvantages of each service option.
NOTE: If local code requires an access panel, defer to local code requirements.
Access Panel for Traditional Series
The Traditional series has an access panel built in on the left side of the interior of the firebox and does not need an access panel
incorporated into the fireplace chase. This access panel is hidden behind a removable decorative interior panel, and opens to the
gas and electrical components, which have been built onto the left side of the unit. To access these components, remove screen
heat barrier, interior glass, and left decorative side panel, and access components through the access panel door.
NOTE: An access panel at the fireplace is
required
for fireplaces with a power vent to allow access to the power vent
control box for servicing.
