IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
IMPORTANT
Read these instructions carefully before installing or trying to operate this vent-free gas heater.
1. Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be
located out of traffic and away from furniture and
draperies.
2. Children and adults should be alerted to the hazard
of high surface temperature and should stay away to
avoid burns or clothing ignition.
3. Young children should be carefully supervised when
they are in the same room with the appliance.
4. Do not place clothing or other flammable material on
or near the appliance.
5. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing an
appliance, must be replaced prior to operating the
heater.
6. Installation and repair should be done by a qualified
service person.
7. To prevent malfunction and/or sooting, an unvented
gas heater should be cleaned before use and at least
annually by a professional service person. More
frequent cleaning may be required due to exces-
sive lint from carpeting, bedding materials, etc. It is
imperative that control compartments, burners and
circulating air passageways be kept clean.
• Any change to this heater or its controls can be dangerous.
• Improper installation or use of the heater can cause serious injury or death from fire,
burns, explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Do not allow fans to blow directly into the fireplace. Avoid any drafts that alter burner
flame patterns.
• Do not use a blower insert, heat exchanger insert or other accessory, not approved for
use with this heater where applicable.
WARNING
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING: Early signs of carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to the flu with head-
aches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these signs, the insert may not have been installed properly. Get fresh air at
once! Have the insert inspected and serviced by a qualified service person. Some people are more affected by carbon
monoxide than others. These include pregnant women, people with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the
influence of alcohol, and those at high altitudes.
Propane/LP gas and natural gas are both odorless. An odor-making agent is added to each of these gases. The odor
helps you detect a gas leak. However, the odor added to these gases can fade. Gas may be present even though no
odor exists.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance may be installed in an aftermar-
ket, permanently located, manufactured (mobile)
home, where not prohibited by local codes.
This appliance is only for use with the type of gas
indicated on the rating plate. This appliance is not
convertible for use with other gases.
Continued from page 3
13. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Do not
allow fans to blow directly into fireplace. Do not place
a blower inside burn area of firebox. Ceiling fans may
create drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Sooting and
improper burning will occur.
14. Caution: Candles, incense, oil lamps, etc. produce
combustion byproducts including soot. Vent-free appli-
ances will not filter or clean soot produced by these types
of products. In addition, the smoke and/or aromatics
(scents) may be reburnt in the vent-free appliance which
can produce odors. It is recommended to minimize the
use of candles, incense, etc. while the vent-free appli-
ance is in operation.
15. This is an unvented gas-fired heater. It uses air (oxygen)
from the room in which it is installed. Provisions for ad-
equate combustion and ventilation air must be provided.
See page 7.
16. Keep room area clear and free from combustible materi-
als, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
17. Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone heater.
They are not intended to be a primary heating appliance.
Water vapor produced by an unvented heater can create
moisture problems in a home when operated for extended
periods of time.
18. During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various
components of this appliance are treated with certain
oils, films or bonding 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 two to three
hours with the burner at the highest setting. Provide
maximum ventilation by opening windows or doors to
allow odors to dissipate. Any odors remaining after this
initial break-in period will be slight and will disappear
with continued use.
19. Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are for
elevations up to 2,000 feet. For elevations above 2,000
feet, input ratings should be reduced 4 percent for each
1,000 feet above sea level. See the National Fuel Gas
Code.
20. The heater 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).
21. The heater 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).
22. Do not use this room heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified service technician
to inspect the room heater and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been under
water.
23. This appliance must not be used with glass doors in the
closed position. This can lead to pilot outages and severe
sooting outside the fireplace.
24. Never burn solid fuels in a fireplace where a unvented
room heater is installed.
25. Always have a fireplace screen in place when the ap-
pliance is in operation and , unless other provisions for
combustion air are provided, the screen shall have an
opening(s) for induction of combustion air.

ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided for ad-
equate combustion and ventilation air.
The National Fuel Gas Code, (ANSI Z223.1), defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet
per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. An uncon-
fined space is defined as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the
aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with the space in which the
appliances are installed, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.
UNUSUALLY TIGHT CONSTRUCTION IS DEFINED AS CONSTRUCTION WHERE…
a) walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of 1 perm
(6 x 1011 kg per-pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed, and
b) weather striping has been added on openable windows and doors, and
c) caulking or sealant are applied to areas such as joints around windows and door frames; between sole plates and doors;
between wall-ceiling joints; between wall panels; at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines; and at other
openings.

W
H
The following formula can be used to determine the maximum heater rating per the definition of unconfined space:
BTU/Hr = (L1 + L2) Ft x (W) Ft x (H) Ft
50
Consider two connecting rooms with an open area between, with the following dimensions:
L1 = 151/2 Ft., L2 = 12 Ft., W = 12 Ft., H = 8 Ft.
BTU/Hr = (151/2 + 12) x (12) x (8)
50
If there were a door between the two rooms the calculation would be based only on the room with the heater.
BTU/Hr = (151/2) x (12) x (8)

If the area in which the heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an
unconfined space or if the building is of unusually tight construction, provide adequate
combustion and ventilation air by one of the methods described in the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.

PLACEMENT IN A FIREPLACE WITH A RESTRICTIVE BARRIER
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THIS GAS LOG SET
The following are guidelines for placing a gas log set in a fireplace that has a restrictive barrier along the bottom front open-
ing of the fireplace. Some examples of barriers are glass/screen door frames and sunken/recessed fireplaces.
Glass door frames
with adjustable
louvers should have
the lovers fully open
while the unit is in
operation.
Height of restrictive barrier
caused by glass door frames,
recessed fireplaces, etc. from
the base or bottom surface of the
unit. (See Table).
The log set should be
placed against or as near
as possible to the rear wall
of the fireplace/firebox.
Depth of fireplace/firebox.
(SeeTable).
Figure 3 - Reference Drawing of a Natural Flame Log Set in an Enclosure
NOTE: Non combustible material such as refractory brick may be used to line the floor of the fireplace
in order to raise the height of the gas log set in relation to a restrictive barrier. If the unit is raised, the
minimum height dimension listed in the homeowner’s manual must not be exceeded.
NOTE: If the log set is equipped with a remote receiver, a restrictive barrier may reduce the battery life
by increasing the ambient temperature inside the fireplace. Placement of the receiver outside of the
fireplace will extend the battery life.
X
Barriers such as the bottom of a glass door frame placed in front of a gas log set can
change the air flow characteristics of the fireplace which in turn can cause the unit to
overheat and malfunction.
WARNING
Height of Restriction (X) Minimum Depth of Fireplace/Firebox
No restriction 13"
0 to 1.5" 16"
Greater than 11/2" to 3" 16"
Greater than 3" Any barrier greater than three inches (3") placed in front of the gas log set is not
recommended by the manufacturer.
