For Massachusetts Residents Only: Installation of this gas log set
as a vented indoor appliance in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
requires the damper be permanently removed or welded in the fully

You must install the damper clamp accessory. This will ensure vented
operation (see Figure A on Page 5). The damper clamp will keep
damper open�
See chart on Page 6 for minimum permanent flue opening you must
provide� Attach damper clamp so the minimum permanent flue open-
ing will be maintained at all times�

nect appliance to gas supply. Follow all local codes.

(non-utility) gas wells. This gas is commonly known
as wellhead gas and does not have odorants and may
have impurities, and variations in BTU content. The
use of well-head gas will void the manufacturer's
warranty to this appliance.

CAUTION: Use only new, black iron or steel
pipe. Internally-tinned copper tubing may be used
in certain areas. Check your local codes. Use
pipe of 1/2" diameter or greater to allow proper gas
volume to appliance. If pipe is too small, undue loss
of volume will occur.
Installation must include an equipment shutoff valve, union and
plugged 1/8" NPT tap� Locate NPT tap within reach for test gauge
hook up� NPT tap must be upstream from appliance (see Figure B).

tion� The equipment shutoff valve is for turning on or shutting off
the gas to the appliance�
Check your building codes for any special requirements for locating
equipment shutoff valve to appliances�
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT threads� This will prevent
excess sealant from going into pipe� Excess sealant in pipe could
result in clogged appliance valves�
