FIREBOX INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Any vent-free Gas Log Heater must be “For use with approved ANSI Z21.11.2 unvented room heater.” Follow and complete the installation instructions of the gas log set and the requirements of this firebox. Check all fittings for leaks before lighting the gas log set. In planning the installation of the firebox, it is necessary to determine where the unit is to be installed and whether optional accessories are desired. Gas supply piping should also be planned at this time. A gas shut-off must be in this line.

The firebox can be mounted on any of these surfaces:

1. A flat hard combustible or non-combustible surface.
2. A raised platform of combustible or non-combustible material.
3. Recessed into the floor as illustrated by Figure 4.
4. Supported under all (4) corners of the firebox so that contact is made on all four perimeter edges on the bottom of the unit (Example: Four (4) concrete masonry blocks).

If the firebox is installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other combustible material other than wood flooring, it should be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the unit. At this point, you should have decided what components to include in your installation, and where the firebox is to be located. If this has not been done, stop and consult your dealer for assistance with this planning.

Planning Your Installation

Accessory kits such as the FBB5 Blower kit, Trim kits, Mantles, Full Cabinet Mantels, plus other Decorative Frame, Hood, and Door accessory kits may be installed after the firebox is secured to the framed opening. Refer to the instructions provided with each of the optional accessory kits for proper installation and operation.

Firebox Framing

Locating Firebox

• Place firebox in framing opening. Use the four (4) framing brackets provided on the firebox to attach the firebox to the framing. Different hole locations can be used for finishing materials with thicknesses of 3/8″, 1/2″ and 3/4″.
• Attach these materials with screws provided, two (2) per framing bracket. See Figure 7.
• Framing brackets should fit directly against the framing material. Use at least one (1) nail per bracket to secure in place.
• Check squareness ofthe firebox priorto securing to framed opening. See Figure 8.

INSTALLING HOOD

A black hood that is furnished with each firebox (or optional hood) MUST be installed before the firebox is used. Failure to do so may create a possible fire hazard. The hood is located inside the firebox on flush face units. If brass, stainless steel, or hammered pewter hoods are desired, they can be purchased as an option. The attachment is the same as the standard black hood.

Flush Face Models

1. On flush face models, loosen the two screws (A) holding the firebox top to the face panel, then slide the hood flange between the firebox top and face panel and re-tighten the screws.
2. Install one (1) screw at each end of the hood as shown (C).

Extended Hoods
If your non-combustible facing material is over 1″ in thickness that will be used to finish this firebox, an extended hood is available that will extend out 2″ farther out into the room. Contact your local dealer for details.

Finishing

• All joints (top, bottom, and sides), where the wall or decorative facing material meets the firebox surround should be sealed with a non-combustible material.
• Hearth extensions are recommended, but not required for these fireboxes.

GAS LINE CONNECTION

• The firebox is designed to accept a 3/8-inch gas line for an approved vent-free gas log set. Have the line installed by a qualified service person per all building codes. Consult local building codes to properly size the gas supply line leading to the 3/8-inch hook-up at the unit.
• The state of Massachusetts requires that a flexible appliance connector cannot exceed three feet in length. Gas access holes are provided on both sides of the firebox. See Figure 10. Carefully remove the indented knockout in the ceramic brick panel using a drill or utility knife. See Figure 11.
• Check gas type. Use only the gas type indicated on the gas log set rating plate. If the gas listed on the plate is not your type of gas supply, DO NOT INSTALL. Contact your dealer for the proper model.
• Always use an external regulator for all LP fireboxes to reduce the supply tank pressure to a maximum of 14″ w.c. This is in addition to the regulator fitted to the log set.
• WARNING: CONNECTION DIRECTLY TO AN UNREGULATED L.P. TANK CAN CAUSE EXPLOSION.
• Install only an ANSI Z21.11.2 vent-free log set into this firebox.

OPTIONAL SINGLE-SPEED BLOWER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Attention: Install the blower assembly before connecting the gas inlet supply line.

Wiring

• The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded following local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, if an exter- nal electrical source is utilized. This appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock hazards and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
• For an ungrounded receptacle, an adapter, which has two prongs and a wire for grounding, can be purchased, plugged into the ungrounded receptacle, and its wire connected to the receptacle mounting screw. With this wire com- pleting the ground, the appliance cord plug can be plugged into the adapter and be electrically grounded.
• Caution: Label all wires before disconnection when servic- ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operations. Verify proper operation after servicing.

Note: The junction box on the right side of the firebox must be pre-wired at the time of firebox installation for use with blower assembly. A standard wall ON/OFF wall switch or optional SCV1 Variable Speed Control Kit should be installed to activate power to the Firebox and control the operation of the FBBS Blower assembly. It is recommended that installation of the wiring be performed by a qualified electrician. See Figure 12.

1. If installed, turn OFF the gas supply to the firebox/gas log.

2. If applicable, turn OFF the electric supply to the firebox.

   • CAUTION: ALL WIRING SHOULD BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN AND SHALL BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL LOCAL, CITY AND STATE BUILDING CODES. BEFORE MAKING THE ELECTRI-CAL CONNECTION, MAKE SURE THAT THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY IS DISCONNECTED. THE APPLIANCE, WHEN INSTALLED, MUST BE ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES, WITH THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE ANSINFPA 70 (LATEST EDITION).

3. A factory-installed junction box is located on the lower right side of the firebox. Wiring must be fed to the junction box and attached to the receptacle that is provided. From the right side of the firebox, remove the screw securing the junction box assembly. Leave approximately 6″ of wire in the junction box for connection.

   • Attach black wire to one side of the receptacle and white wire to the opposite side of the receptacle. The ground wire should be attached to the green (ground) screw. Install the receptacle into the junction box. Attach cover plate.
   • Attention: If installed, do not damage the gas inlet supply line when the blower assembly is inserted into the firebox. In some cases, removal of the gas inlet supply line may be necessary.

4. Insert blower assembly into the interior, and bottom of the firebox. Posi- tion blower assembly so that you align the notch on the back of the blower assembly with the center screw on the firebox back, then push the blower assembly against the firebox back. The blower wheel must be centered on the back wall of the firebox. The magnets on the back and bottom of the blower assembly will sufficiently hold the blower assembly in place.

   • Note: For field installation of the blower assembly, it may be easier to remove the rear cover panel to install the blower. This eliminates the need to remove brick liner panels, but the blower would have to be installed before installing the firebox into a wall or chase. See Figure 15.

5. Once the blower assembly is in position, locate the plug button in the top right rear corner of the firebox. Remove the
   plug with a standard screwdriver and discard the plug.

6. Next, find the fan control switch and wire assembly. Feed the wires through the hole at the top of the firebox, and secure the fan control switch with (2) #6 screws provided. See Figure 16.

   • NOTE: HOOD AND BRICK PANELS REMOVED FOR CLARITY

7. The fan control wires will slide down between the firebox and outer wrap near the blower assembly. See Figure 16.

8. One fan control wire will have a 1/4″ female terminal that must be attached to the open terminal on the blower motor. See Figure 19, Connection A.

9. The other fan control wire has a 1/4% male terminal. Attach this terminal to the open terminal on the blower power cord. See Figure 19, Connection B

10. Route the wires away from moving parts of the blower assembly and retain wires together near the blower motor using the plastic purse clip provided.

11. To complete the installation, plug the power cord into the junction box receptacle at the right rear corner of the firebox outer wrap. See Figure 17.

12. If room permits, the power cord can be located from the out-side of the unit looking through the junction box access hole (with the junction box removed), then plug up the power cord before reinstalling the pre-wired junction box.

13. Once all connections are made electrically, it is recommended- ed that you test the blower fan control operation by turning on power to the blower (Caution: 110 Volt). Then apply heat to the fan control switch inside the firebox with a lighter or match until blower is activated. Once blower is activated, check for proper operation. Do not place hands near blower assembly or other wiring while power is on.

14. Replace blower access plate and/or reinstall the brick liner panels if provided.

15. This completes the installation of the optional FBB5 Blower kit accessory.

    • Note: This blower is equipped with a heat-activated fan control switch. Blower will operate when the firebox warms up, and will turn off automatically when the firebox cools down.

Blower Motor

• The blower motor does not have oiling holes. Do not attempt to 1l the blower motor.

Blower Wheels

• The blower wheels will collect lint and could require periodic cleaning. If the air output decreases or the noise level increases, it indicates a dirty blower wheel. Remove fan and clean the blower wheels.
• Warning: Unplugging of blower accessory will not stop the heater from cycling. To turn off gas to the heater (millivolt model): push in gas control knob slightly and turn clockwise to “OFF.” Do not force. To turn off gas on direct ignition model, turn gas line valve to “OFF.”

Warranty Parts

Warranty parts will need proof of purchase and can be ordered by your Service Person or Dealer. Proof of purchase is required for warranty parts. All parts listed in the Parts List have a Part Number. When ordering parts, first obtain the Model Number and Serial Number from the name plate on your equipment. Then determine the Part Number (not the Index Number) and the Description of each part from the following illustration and part list. Be sure to give all this information.

• Appliance Model Number
• Appliance Serial Number.
• Type of Gas (Propane or Natural)
• Part Description
• Part Number

Do not order bolts, screws, washers, or nuts. They are standard hardware items and can be purchased at any local hardware store. Shipments are contingent upon strikes, fires, and all causes beyond our control.
