NOTICE: This heater is intended
for use as supplemental heat.
Use this heater along with your
primary heating system. Do not
install this heater as your pri-
mary heat source. If you have a
central heating system, you may
run system's circulating blower
while using heater. This will help
circulate the heat throughout the
house. In the event of a power
outage, you can use this heater
as your primary heat source.

vice person must install fire-
place. Follow all local codes.

• where curtains, furniture,
clothing, or other flammable
objects are less than 42 inches
from the front, top, or sides of
the fireplace
• in high traffic areas
• in windy or drafty areas
CAUTION: This fireplace cre-
ates warm air currents. These

faces next to fireplace. Install-
ing fireplace next to vinyl or cloth

but not limited to, tobacco
smoke, aromatic candles, clean-
ing fluids, oil or kerosene lamps,

Note: Your fireplace is designed to be used in zero
clearance installations. Wall or framing material
can be placed directly against any exterior surface
on the rear, sides, or top of your fireplace, except
where standoff spacers are integrally attached. If
standoff spacers are attached to your fireplace,
these spacers can be placed directly against wall
or framing materials.
Use the dimensions shown for rough openings to
create the easiest installation (see Built-In Fire-
place Installation, pages 21 and 22).
IMPORTANT: Vent-free heaters add moisture to
the air. Although this is beneficial, installing fire-
place in rooms without enough ventilation air may
cause mildew to form from too much moisture.
See Air for Combustion and Ventilation, pages 5
through 7.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the fireplace is level. If
fireplace is not level, log set will not work properly.
