11.0 MOUNTING THE APPLIANCE - continued

Before tightening the wall-mounting screws fully, at this stage

it is recommended to check the horizontal alignment of the

appliance with a spirit level, as small adjustments can still be

made if necessary. When this has been checked, tighten all four

fixing screws fully.

To access the upper fixing screws insert a screwdriver either

through the round holes in the front of the outlet Grill (as shown

in Figure 3), or alternatively for easier access the outlet Grill

may be removed and the fixing screws accessed more directly

through the holes in the deflector baffle as shown in Figure 4.

1.0 CHECKING THE BURNER

There are no imitation fuel bed components, such as logs or

rocks, to install. The appliance features a ribbon burner which is

designed to produce a continuous band of flame over its length.

The burner should be visually inspected to ensure it is free from

any foreign matter. If it is necessary to clean or dust off the

burner then the glass door should be removed by removal of

the four retaining screws. Re-fit the glass door after cleaning or

inspection, ensuring a good seal.

A qualified gas appliance installer must connect the gas room

heater to the gas supply. Consult all local codes. Route gas

line using techniques and materials prescribed by local and/or

national codes. Only use pipe of 1/2" or greater diameter to allow

full gas volume to the gas fireplace. Undue pressure loss will

occur if the pipe is too small.

An external regulator must be used on all propane (L.P.G.)

heaters, in addition to the regulator fitted to the heater, to reduce

the supply tank pressure to 13" w.c. (maximum).

13.0 CONNECTING A GAS LINE

WARNING

Connecting directly to a unregulated propane tank

may cause an explosion.

An ANSI approved manual shut-off valve and union must be

installed upstream of the heater within the fireplace cavity

when rigid pipe is used. Ensure that a sediment trap is installed

upstream of the heater (Figure 5) within the structure’s piping

system to prevent moisture and contaminants from passing

through the pipe to the heater controls and burner. Failure to do

so could prevent the heater from operating reliably. The heater

gas inlet connection is 3/8” NPT at the regulator, located below

the burner, in the center of the heater. When tightening up the

joint to the regulator hold the regulator securely with a wrench

to prevent the regulator from moving.
