Section A: Before You Begin
IMPORTANT MESSAGE: SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
The unit must be installed in accordance with these instructions.
Carefully read all the instructions in this manual first. Consult the Local
Gas Branch to determine the need for a permit prior to starting the
installation. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure this
fireplace is installed in compliance with the manufacturers instructions and
all applicable codes.
NOTICE
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance and
to replace any part of the control system and any gas control that has been
under water.
NOTICE
Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface
temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or clothing ignition
CAUTION
When cold air enters the warmer building interior, primarily at the air intake
end, condensation may occur on the exterior of the flex pipe. To limit this
condensation, install insulation over the last twenty feet of flex pipe. Also,
by sloping the last 20′-0″ feet of flex pipe downward toward the exterior of
the building, elimination of most of the condensation problems should occur.
Ensure the termination is securely fastened, and sealed to the flex pipe.
Fasten the termination to exterior of the building with water tight sealant
and the appropriate fasteners.
