Gas Supply
Caution: The gas line should be installed by a qualified
service person in accordance with all building codes. Consult
local and/or national building codes before altering the fire-
place.
The Mirage Direct Vent Gas Insert comes equipped with a
flexible connector with a 3/8" N.P.T. Male inlet for easy gas
connection. This connector is attached to the control valve
under the burner assembly and may exit the gas Insert at the
bottom left front or left rear. (Fig. #11)
Proper gas line diameter must be used to assure proper
operation. A pressure test port (1/8 inch N.P.T. plugged
tapping) must be provided for checking gas pressure. This
port must be located immediately upstream of the gas supply
connection to the appliance.

Burner Assembly
The glass frame must be removed to install the burner into the
firebox. The glass frame is held in place by two over-center
latches located under the firebox.
1) Fold down the bottom louver, if installed, to access the
over-center latch. Disengage the latches by pulling each
lever down and forward.
2) Grasp the sides of the frame and swing the bottom out to
clear. Lift it up and forward to disengage from the top and
place in a safe place to avoid damage.
3) Remove the wrapped logs and brick panels and set aside,
taking care not to damage them.
4) Remove burner assembly from the carton and inspect.
Remove the two wing nuts contained in the plastic bag in
the carton.
5) Bend the flexible inlet connector so that the line extends
straight from the control valve. While placing the burner
into the firebox, feed the flex gas inlet pipe through the
front plastic bushing located in the casing side. The flex
inlet pipe should extend out of the casing side, through the
plastic bushing.
A knockout is provided at the right rear of the appliance as an
alternate exit for the flexible connector. To use this inlet,
remove the knockout from the rear of the appliance. (Fig.
#11) Remove the plastic bushing installed in the side and
reinstall into the hole at the rear of the appliance.
6) Angle the burner assembly slightly forward, and place
inside the firebox. Be sure to align the two studs on the
side of the burner with the holes provided in the firebox
bottom side ledges. (Fig. #12)
