MATERIALS

REQUIRED

No electrical power supply is required for the
gas control to operate. A 120 Volt AC power
cord is hooked up to the fan switch and blower.
Plug 3 wire cord into a suitable receptacle. Do
not cut the ground terminal off under any
circumstances.

When connected with 120 volts, the appliance
must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes, with a current version of CSA
C22.1 (in Canada) or in the absence of local
codes, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/
NFPA 70-1987.

Note: This unit is equipped with a heat

sensor thermodisc which will
prevent the blower from operat-
ing until the unit reaches the cor-
rect temperature.

INSTALLATION

WARNING:

Electrical Grounding Instructions

This appliance is equipped with a
three pronged (grounding) plug
for your protection against shock
hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded
three-prong receptacle. Do not cut
or remove the grounding prong
from this plug.

Floor Protection

An approved floor protector is required con-
sisting of a layer of 1/2" (13mm) Wonderboard
(or Durock or equivalent) that extends 9"
(229mm) in front of the fireplace measured at
the base (this equals 16" from the fireplace
opening), and as wide as the appliance.

Note: If the appliance is installed in a

fireplace that is elevated 5"
(127mm) or higher (i.e., a Water-
ford Zero Clearance Cabinet, zero
clearance fireplace, brick plinth,
etc.), no floor protection is re-
quired in front of the appliance.

When the Insert is installed in a fireplace that is
elevated 5" or higher, no floor protection is
required in front of the appliance.
