GENERAL INFORMATION
These vented decorative gas log sets incorporate
uni-body constructed ceramic fiber logs and ember
bed burner which glow realistically when the ap-
pliance is in operation.
These units are remote controlled-decorative rated
and are equipped with millivolt gas valves. The
remote control allows for flame height adjustment,
timer and on/off control.
A spark ignition system (piezo) allows the gas
pilot to be lit without the use of matches or bat-
teries and permits operation of the heater during
a power outage.
These log sets come with a Floor Media Kit in-
cluded. This kit is used to blend the floor and the
log set together for a more natural look.
INSTALLATION
WARNING: A qualified ser-
vice person must install heater.
Follow all local codes.
WARNING: Before installing
in a solid fuel burning fireplace,
the chimney flue and firebox
must be cleaned of soot, creo-
sote, ashes and loose paint by a
qualified chimney cleaner. Creo-
sote will ignite if highly heated. A
dirty chimney flue may create and
distribute soot within the house.
Inspect chimney flue for damage.
If damaged, repair flue damper
before operating appliance.
CAUTION: This heater creates
warm air currents. These currents
move heat to wall surfaces next
to heater. Installing heater next
to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or
operating heater where impurities
(such as, but not limited to, to-
bacco smoke, aromatic candles,
cleaning fluids, oil or kerosene
lamps, etc.) in the air exist, may
discolor walls or cause odors.
WARNING: 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 material.
CHECK GAS TYPE
Use the correct gas type (natural or propane/LP) for
your unit. If your gas supply is not correct, do not
instal in fireplace. Call dealer where you bought
the appliance for proper type of appliance.
WARNING: This appliance
is equipped for (natural or pro-
pane/LP) gas. Field conversion
is not permitted.
FLUE OPENING SPECIFICATIONS

in a solid-fuel burning fireplace with a working
flue and constructed of noncombustible material.
