    HEATING PERFORMANCE: With its high heat output this Mendota Fireplace will heat a large area of your home if located properly to maximize heat/ air cir- culation. Air movement options for maximizing heat circulation that can be considered are the continuous operation of central heating furnace blowers or ceiling fans.

  • Page 21: Gas Supply Requirements

    GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS Correct gas pressure and proper gas supply line sizing is imperative to the successful performance of your Mendota gas fireplace. Be sure the gas supplier or plumber carefully checks for correct gas pressure and gas line sizing when in- stalling the fireplace.

  • Page 22: Gas Pressure Requirements

    GAS PRESSURE REQUIREMENTS One of the main causes of operating problems with gas appliances can be improper gas pressure! Problems such as changes in flame color or configuration, gas pilot or burner outages, intermittent operation, changes in heat output, excessive burner noise, etc. are nearly always the result of changes in gas pressure or improper gas pres- sure at the time of the installation.
