Ratings
*High Altitude Installations
Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are
certi
fi
ed without deration for elevations up to 4,500
feet (1,370 m) above sea level.
For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370 m) in USA,
installations must be in accordance with the current
ANSI Z223.1 and/or local codes having jurisdiction.
Heating value of gas in some areas is reduced to
compensate for elevation—consult your local gas
utility to con
fi
rm.
For installations at elevations above 4,500 feet
(1,370 m) in Canada, please consult provincial and/or
local authorities having jurisdiction.
Supply Gas
Heater engine 1500KN uses
natural gas.
Heater engine 1500KP uses
propane gas.
The supply pressure must be
between the limits shown in the
Ratings
section.
The supply connection is 3/8” NPT male and located on
the left hand side of the
fi
rebox. A shut-o
ff
valve (not
supplied) is required on the supply line to isolate the
unit during service. See
Gas Supply Installation
section
for details.
Conversion Kits
The 1500K are supplied as natural gas or propane
gas and are
fi
eld convertible between fuels. See
instructions packaged with the conversion kits for
further information.
Electrical
The 1500K are designed to run on battery power and
do not require an electrical power source to operate
as a heater. However, they require electrical power
to operate optional 1595CFKV2 Circulating Fan Kit,
1270RBK Remote Blower Kit, or GV60WIFI WiFi Kit.
HeatShift
™
System
The 1500K are designed to allow the installation of the
optional HeatShift System, a convection system that
redistributes the warm air
fl
ow away from the
fi
replace
opening to a more desirable location using natural
convection, without use of a fan.
The warm air
fl
ow may be relocated to a position higher
up the wall, out the sidewalls, or even to another room.
The result is much cooler wall temperatures above the
fi
replace opening for locating televisions, artwork, etc.
Please note that the framing and mantel clearances
are a
ff
ected by the installation of the HeatShift
System.
Refer to “Appendix D—HeatShift™System™” on
page 73 for more information.
Outdoor Conversion Kit
The 1500K models are supplied standard for indoor
applications and may be adapted for installation in
speci
fi
c “outdoor” applications protected from weather
as de
fi
ned in the GV60CKO outdoor conversion kit
manual.
