IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE IN-
STALLATION OF THIS GAS LOG SET
The following are guidelines for placing a gas log set
in a fireplace that has a restrictive barrier along the
bottom front opening of the fireplace. Some examples
of barriers are glass/screen door frames and sunken/
recessed fireplaces.
Height of
Restriction (x)
No Restriction
0 to 3"
Greater than 3"
*Any barrier greater than 3" placed in front of the gas log
set is not recommended by the manufacturer.
NOTE: Non combustible material such as refractory brick
may be used to line the floor of the fireplace in order to raise
the height of the gas log set in relation to a restrictive barrier.
If the unit is raised, the minimum height dimension listed in
the homeowner's manual must not be exceeded.
NOTE: If the log set is equipped with a remote receiver, a
restrictive barrier may reduce the battery life by increasing
the ambient temperature inside the fireplace. Placement
of the receiver outside of the fireplace will extend the
battery life.
Barriers such as the bottom of a glass door
frame placed in front of a gas log set can
change the air flow characteristics of the
fireplace which in turn can cause the unit
to overheat and malfunction. Any deviation
from the installation guidelines on this sheet
will potentially void the warranty.
