• The fl exible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
• The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom
or bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent sealed combustion
product.
• WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed
plumber or gas fi tter when installed within the commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
• Un-vented room heater shall be installed in accordance with 527
CMR 30.00 and 248 CMR 3.00 through 7.00.

absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1/INFPA 54 in the United States or CSA B149.1,

The fi replace and its individual shutoff valve must be discon-
nected 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). The fi replace 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).
When the fi replace is installed directly on combustible mate-
rial other than wood fl ooring, the fi replace shall be installed on
a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth.
FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN
TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUAL-
ITY! Maximum input is 40,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and
propane. When the fi replace is installed at elevations above
2,000ft, and in the absence of specifi c recommendations
from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certifi ed high
altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for
each additional 1,000ft.
It is highly recommended to protect the logs from mois-

This fi replace is only for use with the type of gas indi-
cated on the rating plate. This fi replace is not convertible
for use with other gases, unless a certifi ed kit is used.
Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water col-
umn for natural gas and 11 inches water column for propane.
Maximum inlet gas pressure is 7 inches water column for
natural gas and 13 inches water column for propane. Manifold
pressure under fl ow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for
natural gas and 10 inches water column for propane.
No external electricity (110 volts or 24 volts) is required
for the gas system operation.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling
down cycles are normal and are to be expected.
Use only accessories designed for and
