WARNING
You must secure the gas log heater to the fireplace floor. If not, the entire unit may
move when you adjust the controls. Movement of unit may cause shifting of the gas
logs which leads to sooting and improper burning.
Special care is required if you are installing the unit into a sunken fireplace. You must
raise the fireplace floor to allow access to gas log controls. This will insure adequate
air flow and guard against sooting. Raise the fireplace floor using noncombustible
materials, as described in Placement in a Fireplace with Restrictive Barrier on
page 10.
WARNING
The fireplace and gas logs function as a system. If the fireplace is spilling into the room
(check with a match or a smoke stick), reposition the damper clamp until a positive
draft is obtained by opening the damper. If negative pressure in home prevents having
a positive draft, contact your dealer for assistance.
NOTE: Proper installation
of the burner is
essential to prevent any
movement of the gas
logs and controls during
operation.
