CHECK GAS TYPE
Use only natural gas. If your gas supply is
not natural gas, you must convert the appli-
ance to propane/LP. Follow the instructions
on page 8.
If the fireplace does not have a gas supply
shutoff valve, one must be installed.
VENTING SPECIFICATIONS FOR
INSTALLATION
The fireplace chimney flue and vent must be
drafting properly. To check the vent for proper
drafting: Light a tightly rolled newspaper on
one end and place it at the inside front edge
of the fireplace. Observe the smoke and be
sure the vent is properly drawing it up the
chimney. If the smoke spills out into the room,
extinguish the flame and remove any obstruc-
tion until proper venting is achieved.
The chimney flue damper must be fixed open
to provide a minimum of 81 sq. in. of free air
opening during operation of this log set. A
multipurpose damper clamp is provided to fix
the damper in position.
The minimum flue sizes shown in Figure 2
are based on a 6' chimney height using round
pipe. Your minimum flue size will vary based
on input rate and chimney height. Refer to the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA
54, Section 6.6, for details.
