BREAKING IN YOUR NEW FIREPLACE

•

Remove any plastic covering materials that

may still be adhering to the trim parts, before
turning the ﬁreplace ON for the ﬁrst time.

•

Burn the ﬁreplace for at least ten (10) hours

the ﬁrst time you use it, to break it in properly. If the
optional fan kit has been installed, place the fan
switch in the “OFF” position during this time.

•

It is normal for ﬁreplaces fabricated of steel to give

off some expansion and/or contraction noises during
the start up and cool down cycles. Similar noises are
produced by your furnace heat exchanger and your
car engine.

•

It is also not unusual for your gas ﬁreplace to give off

some odor the ﬁrst time it is burned. This is due to the
curing of the paint and any undetected oil from the
manufacturing process.

•

Provide adequate ventilation during the breaking in

process by opening all windows.

Proposition 65 Warning:
Fuels used in gas, wood burning or oil ﬁred
appliances, and the products of combustion
of such fuels, contain chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects and other reproductive harm.
California Health & Safety Code Sec. 25249.6

Check with your electronics manufacturer before
installing a television set or other electronic device
above this ﬁreplace.

CAUTION

NOTICE

DVR28IN Certiﬁed to ANSI Z21.88b-2008 / CSA 2.33b-
2008 Vented Gas Fireplace Heaters
This Direct Vent Gas Fireplace utilizes a sealed
combustion system in which outside air is brought
into the ﬁreplace and the products of combustion
are exhausted from the ﬁreplace through two sepa-
rate concentric passageways within the same metal
vent pipe. Since the vent pipe extends vertically
through an exterior wall or through the roof to the
atmosphere, the ﬁreplace does not use room air for
combustion.
