INTRODUCTION
The millivolt appliances have a millivolt gas
control valve with a piezo ignition system which
provides safe, efficient operation.
The electronic appliances have an electronic
intermittent pilot system provides safe, efficient
operation. External electrical power is required
to operate these units.
LISTING AS FOLLOWS:
These appliances comply with National Safety
Standards and are tested and listed by Omni-
Test Laboratories (Report No. 116-F-30-5)
to ANSI Z21.50 - 2003 (in Canada, CSA 2.22
- 2003), and CAN/CGA-2.17-M91 in both USA
and Canada, as vented gas fireplaces.
Installation must conform to local codes. In
the absence of local codes, installation must
comply with the current National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54). (In Canada, the current
CAN/CGA B149 installation code). Electrical
wiring must comply with local codes. In the
absence of local codes, installation must be in
accordance with the National Electrical Code,
NFPA 70 - (latest edition). (In Canada, the current
CSA C22.1 Canadian Electric Code).
GENERAL INFORMATION
Note: Installation and repair should be per-
formed by a qualified service person. The
appliance should be inspected annually by a
qualified professional service technician. More
frequent inspections and cleanings may be
required due to excessive lint from carpeting,
bedding material, etc.
IMPORTANT
It is imperative that the control
compartment, burners and cir-
culating air passage ways of the
appliance be kept clean. See
Maintenance instructions on
Pages 5 & 6.
Provide adequate clearances around air open-
ings and adequate accessibility clearance for
service and proper operation. Never obstruct
the front openings of the appliance.
Due to high temperatures the appliance should
be located out of traffic and away from furniture
and draperies. Locate furniture and window
coverings accordingly.
These appliances are designed to operate on
natural or propane gas only. The use of other
fuels or combination of fuels will degrade
the performance of this system and may be
dangerous.
