When the unit is installed into a woodburning fireplace, the
minimum distance the mantel can be placed above the
fireplace is governed by local building codes applicable to
woodburning fireplaces. Consult local authorities having
jurisdiction for these clearances. The underside of the
mantel will become warm. Use only finishes which are heat
resistant and do not discolour.

IMPORTANT:
PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING
CAREFULLY
It is normal for fireplaces fabricated of steel to
give off some expansion and/or contraction
noises during the start up or cool down cycle.
Similar noises are found with your furnace heat
exchanger or car engine.
It is not unusual for your Irving Oil gas fireplace
to give off some odour the first time it is burned.
This is due to the curing of the paint and any
undetected oil from the manufacturing process.
Please ensure that your room is well
ventilated - open all windows.
It is recommended that you burn your Irving Oil
fireplace for a least ten (10) hours the first time
you use it. If optional fan kit has been installed,
place fan in the "OFF" position during this time.
This gas appliance should be installed by a qualified
installer in accordance with local building codes and with
current CSA-B149.1 or .2 Installation codes for Gas Burning
Appliances and Equipment.
FOR U.S.A Installations follow local codes and/or the current
National Fuel Gas Code. ANSI Z223.1.
