Maintenance And Service Leaning ecoRative uRfaces Painted and porcelain faces should be wiped with a damp cloth periodically. If a plated face has been purchased, it should be unpacked/unwrapped carefully to avoid getting anything on the surface of the finish, including cleaners, polish and finger prints. It is important to note that fingerprints and other marks can leave a permanent stain on plated finishes.
Maintenance And Service uRneR emovaL The burner may need to be removed for a few reasons, including cleaning under the burner, converting the unit to a different gas type, or to replace the burner altogether. Proceed only when the unit has completely cooled down.

Maintenance And Service 13. Relight the main burner in both the “HI” and “LO” positions to verify proper burner ignition, operation and proper fl ame appearance. Confi rm the inlet and manifold pressures are within the acceptable ranges as directed in section I .
Please carefully read the safety precautions at the front of this manual. NOTE: The Q1LI comes as a top vent unit but can be converted to a rear vent. Warning: Clearances must be sufficient to allow access for maintenance and service.
Initial Installation QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY onveRsion For smaller openings the Q1LI can be converted from a top vent to a rear vent unit. Vent Collar Base Plate Step 1: Using a T20 screwdriver remove the vent collar, base plate, Exhaust Spigot cover plate and exhaust spigot (28 screws total) as shown in Figure 23.
Initial Installation QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY nsuLating ateRiaL Depending on the chosen vent configuration, either one or both pieces of insulating material supplied with the unit are required for correct installation. Rear Vent: When using the rear vent configuration both the ceramic board and fiberglass insulation are required. Place the ceramic board on top of the unit first and then place the insulation on top of the ceramic board as shown in Figure 25.
The Q1LI is supplied with two sets of standoffs that serve as a framing guide and must be used when the unit is being installed as a fireplace. The front set of standoffs mount to sides of the unit (see Figure 27)

Initial Installation QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY LLowabLe xiaL onfiguRations Figures 36a & b show the range of possible vent confi gurations if the unit is top or rear vented, for vertical and horizontal terminations. Any layout that remains within the shaded areas is acceptable. Having the fewest number of elbows is ideal, as they tend to disrupt air movement.
DapteR The Q1LI can be converted from solid co-axial venting to 3” (76mm) flexible co-linear venting to allow for installation into exisiting masonary fireplaces (see Figures 37-39). Co-linear venting can not be used in combustible chimney installations. This adapter kit is for vertical terminations only and can’t be connected to a chimney flue serving a seperate solid-fuel burning stove or appliance.

When installing the Q1LI with 8ft (2.44M) or more of vertical venting, either co-axial or co-linear, it may be necessary to restrict the fresh air supply in the firebox to control the combustion and flame appearance. Using the pair of air restrictors supplied with the unit, install them on each side of the firebox and adjust to the correct setting as outlined in the figure and table below.
Initial Installation QUALIFIED INSTALLERS ONLY oRizontaL eRmination NOTES: 1. Horizontal pipes must not be level. For every 12 inches (305 mm) of horizontal travel (away from the stove), there should be at least ¼ inch (6.4 mm) of vertical travel. Never allow the vent to run downward, as this could cause high temperatures or even present the possibility of a fire.
