items directly to the outdoors or spaces open
to the outdoors. These spaces include attics
and crawl spaces. Follow the National Fuel

CAUTION: Log heaters
installed in this firebox create
warm air currents. These cur-
rents move heat to wall surfaces
next to firebox. Installing firebox
next to vinyl or cloth wall cover-
ings or operating firebox where
impurities (such as, but not
limited to, tobacco smoke, aro-
matic candles, cleaning fluids,
oil or kerosene lamps, etc.) in
the air exist, may discolor walls
or cause odors.
IMPORTANT: Vent-free gas log heaters add
moisture to the air. Although this is beneficial,
installing firebox in rooms without enough
ventilation air may cause mildew to form from
too much moisture. See Air for Combustion
and Ventilation, page 7.
