Installation and Operating Instructions
This gas room heater should be installed by a qualified installer with local building codes and with current NNationalFuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air. This appliance is for supplemental heating only. It should not be used as the primary heat source for a dwelling.

The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z233.1/NFPA 54 defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8 m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space and an unconfined space as a space whose volume is not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour (4.8m3 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with the space in which the appliances are installed, through openings not furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.

WARNING : If the area in which the heater may be operated is smaller than that defined as an unconfined space or if the buildings of unusually tight construction, provide adequate combustion and ventilation air by one of the methods, described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1/NFPA 54, Section 5.3 or applicable local codes.”

Unusually tight construction is defined as construction where: a) Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of 1 perm (6 x 10-11 kg per pa-sec-m2) or less with openings gasketed or sealed, and Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors, and Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole plates and floors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines, and other openings.

The fireplace screen (when equipped) must be closed while the appliance is in operation.

IMPORTANT:
Please Review the Following Carefully

• It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to give off some expansion and/or contraction noises during the start-up or cool-down cycle. Similar noises are found with your furnace heat exchanger or car engine.
• It is not unusual for your gas fireplace to give off some odor the first time it is burned. This is due to the curing of the paint and any undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
• Please ensure that your room is well-ventilated- open all windows.
• It is recommended that you burn your fireplace for a least six (6) hours the first time you use it. If a optional fan kit has been installed, place the an in the “OFF” position during this time.

Fig. 5a Combustible mantel minimum installation.

Hearth Extension
A hearth extension in front of the eater is recommended but not required.

Planning
Planning the installation is an important first step: it will save time and money later in the actual installation. In planning the installation, consider:

1. Where the heater will be located.
2. All components needed to complete the project.

Fig. 5b Combustible mantel leg minimum installation.

Mounting the Heater
The heater should only be mounted on the following surfaces:

• A flat combustible (burnable) surface.
• A raised wooden platform.
• A concrete block or other solid object is laced beneath each of the four corners of the heater.

To mount the heater:

1. Choose a nit location.
2. Place the nit in position and secure the tit o floor with 1¹⁄₂” screws or nails. The holes to secure the unit to the floor are located just behind the bottom louver on the left and right-hand side of the unit.
3. Frame in heater with a header across the top. It is important to allow for a finished face when setting the depth of the frame.
4. Attach heater to frame using adjustable frame drywall strips (located behind access door for shipping). Preset depth to suit facing material (adjustable to 1/2″, 5/8″, or 3/4″ depths). (Fig. 6)
5. Use existing screws ions the side of the nit to attach the drywall strip. Measure from the ace of the eater to the ace of the drywall strip to determine final depth. (Fig. 6)

Fig. 6 Adjustable drywall strip (nailing flange).

Framing
Framing can take place before or after the heater is set in place. The framing should be positioned to accommodate the wall covering and facing material. Framing material should be 2×4 or heavier. Framing headers may rest on top of the heater. (Refer to Page 3, Figure 1 for the eater and framing dimensions.)

Insulating for Cold Climates
When a heater is installed in a chase or an outside wall, the enclosure should be insulated like any other wall of the home. Insulation should be installed under the heater and on the inside of the exterior walls. (Fig. 7)

NOTE : Insulating for cold climates is strictly a recommendation and not a requirement.

Gas Inlet and Manifold Pressures

The installation of your Majestic heater must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 — latest edition. (EXCEPTION Do not derate this appliance for altitude. Maintain the manifold pressure at 3.5 inches w.c. for Natural Gas and 10 inches w.c. for LP gas.)

High Elevations
Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are certified without duration from elevations up to 4,500 feet (1,370m) above sea level.

Nuisance outages may occur at altitudes above 4,500 feet (1,370m) if dirt, dust, lint, and/or cobwebs are allowed to accumulate on the burner and/or ODS pilot. Monthly inspection and cleaning is recommended for altitudes above 4,500 feet
(1,370m) For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m), installations must be by the current ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or local codes having jurisdiction.

Gas Supply Pressures

This heater must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its manual shut-off valve during any pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa). The heater and its shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures iover1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).

Gas Line Connection
If gas piping from the source to the heater location has not been accomplished, install the required pipe. Con-sult local codes to ensure proper pipe size. The gas pipeline can be brought in through the right or left side of the heater, as well as the bottom. Knockouts are provided at convenient locations to allow for the gas pipe installation and testing of any gas connection. It is most convenient to bring the gas line in from the right side, as this allows fan installation or removal without disconnecting the gas line.

NOTE : The gas line connection can be made with pproper3/8″ copper tubing, 1/2″ rigid pipe, or an approved flex connector, then reduced to 3/8″ to the heater. Because some municipalities have some additional local codes, it is always best to consult your local authority. Consult the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.

Always check for gas leaks using a 50/50 solution of liquid soap and water. Apply water/soap solution with ba rush only – do not over-apply NEVER test with an open flame. The gas control is equipped with a captured sscrew- typepressure test point, therefore it is not necessary to provide a 1/8″ test point upstream of of the control. When using copper or flex connector use only approved fittings. When using black iron pipe, always provide a union so the gas line can be easily disconnected for burner or fan servicing. Use the shut- off valve before the union or flex connector. See gas specification for pressure details and ratings. NOTE: If flex connector is used, it must be kept inside of the heater. (Fig. 9)

Fig. 9 Typical gas supply installation .

Electrical Connection

(If the fan is used)
When installed, the heater must be electrically connected and grounded by local codes or, in the absence of local codes:

U.S. Installations :
Follow local codes and the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70.

NOTE : 110/120 electric power is required to operate blower (fan). Be sure to leave sufficient excess wire in case minor adjustments are required.

WARNING : Any electrical rewiring of this fan must be done by a qualified electrician.

Fig. 18 UVS36 log placement.

First Firing
Upon completing your gas line connection, a small amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting the nit with a lot of light, it will take a few minutes to purge itself of this air. Once the purging is complete, the pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the instruction manual. Subsequent lightings of the heater will not require such purging.

Odor During Operation
Neither natural gas nor propane gas give off an odor when burned. The nature of a vvent-freecombustion system, however, is such that odors may occasionally be produced during heater operation when impurities exist in the immediate area. Cleaning solutions, paint, solvents, cigarette smoke, candles, adhesives, new carpet or textiles, etc., all can create fumes. These fumes may mix with combustion air and can create odor. Such odors will disappear over time, however, the condition can be alleviated by opening a window or otherwise providing additional ventilation to the area.

Flame Adjustment
For fireplaces equipped with HI/LO valves, flame adjustment is accomplished by rotating the HI/LO adjustment knob located near the center of the gas control. (Fig. 18)

Fig. 18 Flame adjustment on gas valve.

Flame Characteristics
It is important to periodically perform a visual check of the pilot and burner flames. Compare them to Figures 19 or 20. If the flame patterns appear abnormal, contact a qualified service provider for service and adjustment.

Maintenance

Burner and Burner Compartment
It is important to keep the burner and the burner compartment clean. At least once per year the logs and lava rock/ember material should be removed and the burner compartment vacuumed and wiped out. Remove and replace the logs as per the instructions in this manual.

Always handle the logs with care as they are fragile and may also be hot if the fireplace has been in use.

FK12/FK24 Fan Assembly
The fan unit requires periodic cleaning. At least once per month in the operating season, open the lower louver panels and wipe or vacuum the area around the fan to remove any build-up of dust or lint.

Cleaning the Standing Pilot Control System
The burner and control system consists of:

• main burner
• gas orifice
• combination millivolt gas valve
• pilot burner
• thermopile

Most of these components may require only an occasional checkup and cleaning and some may require adjustment. If repair is necessary, it should be performed by a qualified technician. To properly clean the burner and pilot assembly, turn off the gas to the unit, and remove the window frame panel and logs exposing the burner and pilot assembly. Clean all foreign materials from the top of the burner. Check to make sure that burner parts are clean. VVisuallyinspect pilot. Brush or blow away any dust or lint accumulation If pilot orifice is plugged, disassembly may be required to remove any foreign material from the orifice or tubing.

To obtain proper operation, the pilot and burner’s flame characteristics must be steady, not lifting or floating. Typically, the top 1/8″ of the thermopile should be engulfed in the pilot flame. (Fig. 21)
