Installation Codes
The fireplace installation must conform to local codes.
Before installing the fireplace, consult the local building
code agency to ensure that you are in compliance with all
applicable codes, including permits and inspections.
In the absence of local codes, the fireplace installation
must conform to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1
(in the United States) or the CAN/CGA-B149 Installation
Codes (in Canada). The appliance must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence
of local codes with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA
No. 70 (in the United States), or to the CSA C22.1
Canadian Electric Code (in Canada).
These models may be installed in a bedroom or bed-sitting
room in the U.S.A. and Canada.

High Altitude Installations
U.L. Listed gas fireplaces are tested and approved for
elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet in the U.S.A. and from 0 to
4,500 feet in Canada.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 2,000
feet (in the United States), it may be necessary to decrease
the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice to a
smaller size. Input should be reduced four percent (4%)
for each 1,000 feet above sea level, unless the heating
value of the gas has been reduced, in which case this
general rule will not apply. To identify the proper orifice
size, check with the local gas utility.
When installing this fireplace at an elevation between 2,000
and 4,500 feet (in Canada), the input rating must be
reduced by ten percent (10%).
When installing this fireplace at an elevation above 4,500
feet (in Canada), check with local authorities.
Consult your local gas utility for assistance in determining
the proper orifice for your location.
