Optional Natural Gas Log Lighters
This fireplace is designed to accept a 1/2" gas line for a natural gas log lighter. The gas line should be
installed by a qualified plumber in accordance with all building codes. The gas connection may enter
from the left side only. The gas line must be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI A223.1-1992 or local codes that may have jurisdiction. When installing a gas line, an approved
shut-off valve must be installed outside the fireplace.
To install the gas line, remove the brick on the left inside of the fireplace that has the hole provided for
the gas line to pass through. This will expose a snap in plug that will need to be removed by prying off
with a flat screw driver. Pull out the insulation that is in the hole and replace the brick. Slide a 1/2" pipe
nipple through the holes (NOTE: the exterior access hole is 6-1/2" back from the front edge of the
faceplate and 5-1/2" above the base). Then pack the insulation around the gas pipe where it passes into
the firebox. Finish the installation by either capping the gas line inside the fireplace or by installing a
listed gas log lighter in accordance with its installation instructions. Use a pipe compound approved for
use with gas on all joints.
CAUTION:
¥
When using a log lighter set, the fireplace by-pass and combustion air control must be in
the fully open position. Follow the operating instructions supplied by the log lighter
manufacturer.

Propane (LP) may not be used.
