Millivolt appliances may be fitted at time of
manufacture with either a Honeywell millivolt
gas control valve or as SIT millivolt gas control
valve. Both valves have been tested with and
approved for use with these appliances and are
listed accordingly.
Test gage connections are provided on the
front of the millivolt gas control valve (identi-
fied IN for the inlet and OUT for the manifold
side). A
" NPT test gage connection is
provided at the inlet and outlet side of
the electronic gas control valve.
Minimum inlet gas pressure to the appliance is
5.0 inches water column (1.24 kPa) for natural
gas and 11 inches water column (2.74 kPa) for
propane for the purpose of input adjustment.
Maximum inlet gas supply pressure to the
appliance is 10.5 inches water column (2.61
kPa) for natural gas and 13.0 inches water
column (3.23 kPa) for propane.
The appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system (by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve) during any pressure test-
ing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of
that system at pressures in excess of
(3.5 kPa).
These appliances must not be connected to a
chimney or flue serving a separate solid fuel
burning appliance.
Do not place clothing or other materials on or
near this appliance.
WARNING:

CANT NEGATIVELY PRESSURED ENVI-
RONMENTS CAUSED BY WEATHER,
HOME DESIGN, OR OTHER DEVICES MAY
IMPACT THE OPERATION OF THESE AP-
PLIANCES. NEGATIVE PRESSURES MAY
RESULT IN POOR FLAME APPEARANCE,

psig (3.5 kPa).
ARDS OF HIGH SURFACE TEMPERA-
TURES. USE CAUTION AROUND THE
APPLIANCE TO AVOID BURNS OR
CLOTHING IGNITION. YOUNG CHIL-
psig
DREN SHOULD BE CAREFULLY SUPER-
VISED WHEN THEY ARE IN THE SAME
ROOM AS THE APPLIANCE.

LES MEUBLES, L'ESSENCE OU AUTRES
LIQUIDES À VAPEUR INFLAMMABLES
LOIN DE L'APPAREIL.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MAY ONLY
BE FITTED WITH DOORS CERTIFIED
FOR USE WITH THE APPLIANCE.
AVERTISSEMENT: POUR UTILISATION
UNIQUEMENT AVEC LES PORTES EN
VERRE CERTIFIÊES AVEC L'APPAREIL.
NOTE: DIAGRAMS & ILLUSTRATIONS NOT TO SCALE.
These appliances are equipped with an inte-
gral combustion air door and actuator arm.
Combustion air kits are optional and must be
installed before removing the securing screw
allowing the movement of the combustion air
actuator arm (see Step 7).

LOCATION

Typical Locations
Figure 1
In selecting the location, the aesthetic and
functional use of the appliance are primary
concerns. However, vent system routing to
the exterior and access to the fuel supply are
also important. Due to high temperatures the
appliance should be located out of traffic and
away from furniture and draperies. Consider-
ation should be given to traffic ways, furni-
ture, draperies, etc., due to elevated surface
temperatures. The location should also be
free of electrical, plumbing or other heating/
air conditioning ducting.
The appliance should be mounted on a fully
supported base extending the full width and
depth of the unit. The appliance may be located
on or near conventional construction materi-
als. However, if installed on combustible ma-
terials, such as carpeting, vinyl tile, etc., a
metal or wood barrier covering the entire bot-
tom surface must be used.
These appliances may be used for bedroom
installations in the United States and are listed
accordingly. These units may not be in-
stalled in bedrooms in Canada.

CLEARANCES

Minimum clearance to combustibles for the
appliance is as follows: sides and back - 0" (0
mm), floor - 0" (0 mm), adjacent wall - 0" (0
mm), ceiling - 64" (1625 mm).
