2.3 GENERAL INFORMATION
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.
The appliance is equipped with a pilot light safety system referred to as an oxygen depletion sensor and is designed to
turn off the appliance if not enough fresh air is available.
When the appliance is installed at elevations above 2,000 ft 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 1,000 ft.
4.2C
In absence of local codes, install the appliance to the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
Installation Code which can be obtained from:
American National Standards Institute Inc. or
National Fire Protection Association Inc.
1430 Broadway Batterymarch Park
New York, NY 10018 Quincy, MA 02269
The appliance 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). The appliance
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 installed with a blower the junction box must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance
with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current ANSI / NFPA 70 National Electric Code. In
the case where the blower is equipped with a power cord it must
be connected into a properly grounded receptacle. The grounding
prong must not be removed from the cord plug.
As long as the required clearance to combustibles is maintained,
the most desirable and benefi cial location for the appliance is in
the center of a building, thereby allowing the most effi cient use of
the heat created. The location of windows, doors and the traffi c
fl ow in the room where the appliance is to be located should be
considered.
If the appliance is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood
fl ooring, the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth. NOTE:
This does not apply to stoves.
* Air shortage caused by an inadequate air supply, improper log positions, the addition of foreign or
unapproved materials or the failure to properly maintain the appliance, may result in incomplete combustion of
the fuel. Incomplete combustion results in soot being deposited inside the fi rebox as well as surfaces outside
the appliance. If any soot deposits are observed, shut off the appliance immediately and arrange for it to be
serviced by a qualifi ed technician.
We suggest that our gas
hearth products be installed
