ALL APPLICATIONS (VENTED and VENT FREE OPERATION)
9. The CHILLBUSTER and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The CHILLBUSTER must
be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
10. The area around the CHILLBUSTER must be clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and any other
flammable vapors and liquids. Provide adequate clearances for servicing and proper operation.
11. Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect
the appliance and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
•
This appliance is for supplemental heating
only. It should not be used as the primary heat
source for a dwelling.
•
WARNING: During manufacturing, fabricating, and
shipping, various components of CHILLBUSTER are
treated with certain oils or films. These are not harmful but
may produce annoying smoke and smells as they are
burned off during the initial operation of the appliance,
possibly causing headaches or eye or lung irritation. This
is a normal and temporary occurrence. The initial break-in
operation should last 2-3 hours with the burner at the
highest setting. Provide maximum ventilation by opening
windows, doors, and the chimney flue to allow odors to
dissipate. The only odor remaining after this initial break-in
will be the normal odors associated with the combustion
of Natural or Propane gas.
•
This appliance is equipped with an ODS (OXYGEN
DEPLETION SENSOR) pilot light safety system designed
to shut itself off if not enough fresh air is available.
Additional ventilation may be obtained by opening a
window or a door to another room.
•
Although your CHILLBUSTER is very realistic in
appearance, it is not a real wood burning fireplace.
Matches, paper, garbage, or any other material must not
be thrown on top of the logs or into the flames.
•
Avoid contact with the logs, grate, or any other part
which may be hot.
•
Always ensure that the fireplace screen is closed
when the appliance is operating.
•
State or local codes may only allow operation of this
appliance in a vented configuration. Check your state or
local codes. If not permitted, you may install and operate
CHILLBUSTER as a vented appliance. (See " V E N T E D
OPERATION" below).
WARNING: Before installing in a solid fuel burning fireplace,
the chimney flue and firebox must be cleaned of soot, creosote, ashes
and loose paint by a qualified chimney cleaner.
WARNING: Do not allow fans to blow directly into the fireplace. Avoid
any drafts that alter burner flame patterns.
WARNING: Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or
other accessory not approved for use with this heater.
PREPARATION OF FIREPLACE
1.
Ensure firebox and chimney damper/flue are
thoroughly cleaned (if previously used for either gas
or wood burning.) Failure to adequately clean
firebox, damper and flue may cause fumes,
sooting and/or fire.
2.
If local valve is not already installed, install a gas valve
on the supply line in or just outside the fireplace.
3.
Any outside air ducts and/or ash dumps in the
fireplace shall be permanently closed at time of
installation of this CHILLBUSTER.
4.
Use Propane Gas resistant compound on all pipe
fittings (not on connections with flared fitting).
5.
Test new piping for leaks using soap solution.
Do not use open flame to flame test.
All Soot Must Be Completely Removed From Firebox Prior To Installing!

VENTED APPLICATION
1. The minimum permanent free opening of the fireplace
chimney or chimney damper must be at least 2 9 sq. inches
based upon a minimum chimney height of at least 10 feet.
2.
The chimney damper must be fixed in a manner to maintain
permanent free opening as (outlined in item above) at all times.
To accomplish this, install the damper clamp (provided) on the
edge of the damper blade to prevent its closing, or drill holes in
the damper
.
