Planning
Planning the installation is an important first step. It
will save time and money later in the actual installa-
tion. In planning the installation, consider:
• Where the heater will be located.
• All components needed to complete the installa-
tion.
• DO NOT use this heater in sleeping quarters,
mobile homes, or in recreational vehicles.
• Installation and repair should be done by a quali-
fied service person.
• DO NOT use this heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified technician to
inspect the appliance and replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been
under water.
• When used as an unvented heater, always ensure
there is adequate ventilation from the room where
the appliance is operating. This appliance is
equipped with an ODS (oxygen depletion sensor)
pilot light safety system designed to shut off the
appliance if enough fresh air is not available.
THIS APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE USED WITH
GLASS DOORS IN A CLOSED POSITION .
Keep the burner and control compartment clean.
See installation and operating instructions supplied
with the heater.
WARNING: During manufacturing, fabricating
and shipping, various components of this appli-
ance are treated with certain oils, films or bond-
ing agents. These chemicals 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 its highest setting. Provide maximum ventila-
tion by opening windows, doors and the chimney
flue to allow odors to dissipate. Any odors
remaining after this initial break-in will be slight
and will disappear with continued use.
This appliance operates as an unvented domestic
room heater when fitted to a masonry or factory-built
wood-burning fireplace with the flue damper closed,
or as a decorative appliance when the flue damper is
fully open. It must not be used for any other purpose
and must be fitted in a masonry or factory-built
fireplace or ventless firebox enclosure.
State, provincial or local codes may only allow
operation of this appliance in a vented configuration.
Check your state or local codes. If unvented room
heaters are not permitted, the fireplace vent damper
must be locked at the minimum vent area required
by local codes or by the National Fuel Gas Code
(ANSI Z223.1, latest edition).
When installed as a Decorative Gas Appliance
for installation in a solid-fuel burning fireplace, a
minimum permanent free opening of 29 square
inches must be maintained with a fixed damper
stop provided with the appliance. Minimum flue
size for this appliance is 29 square inches.
