9. Do not use unvented decorative appliance to heat or boil water or use as a cooking appliance.

10. Do not use in a room with oxygen tanks in use

WARNING: This appliance has not been tested with an unvented gas log set. To reduce risk of fire or injury, do not install an unvented gas log set into this appliance.

WARNING: This appliance has not been tested for use with doors. To reduce the risk of fire or injury, do not install doors.

• This product is a decorative burner creating real fire.
• Keep the fuel away while the burner is in operation.
• Wipe up fuel spills immediately with a dry cloth or paper towels.
• Do not make any alterations or put any objects or liquids inside the burner.
• Do not touch the filament or other hot elements.
• Do not transport the burner if fueled.
• Do not leave an operating burner unattended.
• Keep the provided USB cable for inspection purposes.
• Do not use the burner in humid or drafty spaces.

Locating the Burner

• Do not move or relocate the appliance while in use.
• For indoor use and in housing only. Minimum temperature of use is 50°F (10°C).
• No heat-sensitive or flammable objects can be placed within a 40 inch radius from, or directly above, the burner.
• Do not place any objects on the top of the burner except attached accessories.
• For service purposes, the surrounding area must allow for easy removal of the burner.
• Keep children, animals, and unauthorized persons at a safe distance at all times and never leave them unsupervised when the appliance is on or hot.
• A Class B fire extinguisher must be located in close proximity to the appliance in case of fire.

Ventilation & Required Room Size

Open fires consume oxygen. Use only in well-ventilated areas and those that are protected from the draft effects of cross ventilation. When selecting a location for the appliance it is important to consider the recommended minimum room sizes and clearances to walls and combustible materials (see Table A). An air exchange rate of 1/hour is recommended.

In a house of typical construction, that is, one that is not of unusually tight construction due to heavy insulation and tight seals against air infiltration, an adequate supply of air for combustion and ventilation is provided through infiltration. The unvented decorative appliance should be installed in a room where at least 200 ft.3 (5.7 m3 ) of air space is provided for each 1,000 BTU per hour of unvented decorative appliance rating (at maximum burner adjustment). See Table A for recommended minimum room size.

If the burner is installed in a room smaller than the recommended minimum room size, or in a home of unusually tight construction, the door(s) to adjacent room(s) should be kept open or a window to the outside should be opened at least 1 inch (25.4mm) to guard against potential buildup of indoor air pollution.

The decorative appliance may only be installed in a bathroom or bedroom if the room meets the recommended minimum room size.

CLEARANCES AND INSTALLATION

Burner Clearances and Cavity Measurements

• Ensure that burner flame is positioned a minimum of 40 inches away from curtains, flammable materials, and other sources of ignition.
• Be aware of drafts. Do not place in areas where fans, vents or open doors or windows could affect the burner.
• The burner must be installed in accordance with the outlined safety requirements and clearances. Only non-combustible materials can be used in the non-combustible zone shown in yellow.
• Materials used in areas designated as non-combustible must be rated as non-combustible per NFPA 220 Standard on Types of Building Construction, or reported as passing ASTM E 136, Standard Test Method for Behavior of Materials in a Vertical Tube Furnace at 750 Degrees C.

WARNING: common finishing materials not approved for use:

• Paper-faced gypsum board (drywall) including Type X Fire Rated board is not a non-combustible material.
• WonderBoard brand boards are commonly used as a backerboard for tile. WonderBoard backerboard is not a non-combustible material.
• Durock brand cement board contains a polymer coated fiberglass mesh. This can smell when heated. For this reason Durock cement board is not approved.

Non-combustible finishing materials shown in yellow must be insulated from any combustible elements of the construction such as wood framing. This can be accomplished by one of the following:

Option 1: Construct the enclosure using only non-combustible finishing materials and framing. Use steel studs and non-combustible material to build the enclosure for the burner.
Option 2: Create an air gap behind the non-combustible finishing material by following the method shown below. The gap between the material can be left open or insulated with mineral wool.

Method for creating an air gap behind non-combustible finishing material.

Hardibacker 500 or other non-combustible rated cement board is recommended for use in constructing the enclosure. Do not use Durock or WonderBoard brand cement board. These boards are not rated as noncombustible materials and will off gas or deteriorate when subjected to heat.

1. Install a ½” thick cement board to the wood framing.
2. Cut 2” wide strips of ½” thick cement board to use as spacers between the first layer of ½” thick cement board and a second layer of ½” thick cement board. This will create an air gap between the two boards.
3. Install a second layer of cement board to the strips. The gaps between the strips can be left open or insulated with mineral wool.
4. Install the desired non-combustible finishing material to the second layer of cement board.
   

• The bottom of the enclosure that holds the burner and other areas not shown in yellow can be constructed from any construction material including combustible materials.
• In the non-combustible area shown in yellow use only fasteners and adhesives that are resistant to a temperature of 300°F (150°C). For an adhesive, High Temp 450°F silicone adhesive is recommended.
• The minimum F dimension of 14” allows for a 2” tall junction box. If a taller junction box is used increase the depth of the cavity.

Burner Clearances and Cavity Measurements for Multiple Burners

To create longer, or custom size burners multiple burners can be placed together in the same cavity. Follow the chart below when building a cavity for a multiple burner arrangement. The C and D dimensions will be calculated from the total length of the burners placed together. An example is given below.

Example: Two burners are placed together.
Burner 1: NZ36B – Length = 31 1/8”
Burner 2: NZ48B – Length = 39”
Total Length = 31 1/8” + 39” = 70 1/8”
C = 70 1/8” – 5/8” = 69 1/2″
D = 70 1/8” + 10” = 80 1/8”

MAINTENANCE

NetZero burners are considered maintenance free, meaning they do not require regular servicing. To ensure the burner is in proper condition, the manufacturer suggests visually inspecting the condition of the nozzles on the flame rail while the burner is off. The nozzles should be round and regular. Any signs of corrosion on the flame rail, irregular flame pattern or any other erratic behavior of the burner should be immediately reported to the seller or distributor of the burner.
Regularly clean the surface of the burner with a soft, dry cloth. While cleaning, please be aware that due to the design of the burner, the filament protrudes above the burner surface. If put to mechanical stress the filament may break.

NetZero is a distributor of these products, which are designed and manufactured by Planika SP S O O.
