the side wall exhaust vent termination is less than seven (7) feet above finished grade in the area of the venting,
including but not limited to decks and porches, the following requirements shall be satisfied:
1. INSTALLATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS. At the time of installation of the side wall horizontal
vented gas fueled equipment, the installing plumber or gas fitter shall observe that a hard wired carbon monoxide
detector with an alarm and battery back-up is installed on the floor level where the gas equipment is to be installed.
In addition, the installing plumber or gas fitter shall observe that a battery operated or hard wired carbon monoxide
detector with an alarm is installed on each additional level of the dwelling, building or structure served by the side
wall horizontal vented gas fueled equipment. It shall be the responsibility of the property owner to secure the
services of qualified licensed professionals for the installation of hard wired carbon monoxide detectors.
a. In the event that the side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment is installed in a crawl space or an attic,
the hard wired carbon monoxide detector with alarm and battery back-up may be installed on the next adjacent floor
level.
b. In the event that the requirements of this subdivision can not be met at the time of completion of installation, the
owner shall have a period of thirty (30) days to comply with the above requirements; provided, however, that during
said thirty (30) day period, a battery operated carbon monoxide detector with an alarm shall be installed.
2. APPROVED CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS. Each carbon monoxide detector as required in accordance
with the above provisions shall comply with NFPA 720 and be ANSI/UL 2034 listed and IAS certified.
3. SIGNAGE. A metal or plastic identification plate shall be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at
a minimum height of eight (8) feet above grade directly in line with the exhaust vent terminal for the horizontally
vented gas fueled heating appliance or equipment. The sign shall read, in print size no less than one-half (1/2) inch
in size, “GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUCTIONS”.
4. INSPECTION. The state or local gas inspector of the side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment shall not
approve the installation unless, upon inspection, the inspector observes carbon monoxide detectors and signage

Operating your fireplace for the first time
When operating your new fireplace for the first time, some vapors may be released due to the burning of curing
compounds used in the manufacture of the appliance. They may cause a slight odor and could cause the flames
to be the full height of the firebox, or even slightly higher, for the first few hours of operation. It is also possible that
these vapors could set off any smoke detection alarms in the immediate vicinity. These vapors are quite normal on
new appliances. We recommend opening a window to vent the room. After a few hours use, the vapors will have
disappeared and the flames will be at their normal height.
