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.

-
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 non-combustible materials and will
off gas or deteriorate when subjected to heat.
- Install a ½” thick cement board to the wood framing.
- 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.
- Install a second layer of cement board to the strips. The gaps between the strips can be left open or insulated with mineral wool.
- 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.

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.
