COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL

Do not attach combustible material to the mantel of your fireplace.
This is a fire hazard.

FIREPLACE PREPARATION

• Turn off gas supply to fireplace or firebox.
• Have the fireplace floor and chimney professionally cleaned to

remove ashes, soot, creosote or other obstructions.

Have this cleaning performed annually after installation.

• Seal any fresh air vents or ash clean-out doors located on floor

or wall of fireplace. If not, drafting may cause pilot light outage or
sooting. Use a heat-resistant sealant. Do not seal chimney flue
damper.

• Install and operate the appliance as directed in this manual.

INSTALLING AS A VENTED APPLIANCE

Notice (Damper Clamp Installation)
When installing your log set as a vented installation, the damper
clamp must be used.

When installing your log set as a vent-free installation the damper
clamp can be used to eliminate the potential for odors when
burning the logs for the first time.

Installing Damper Clamp

(Figure 9)

Remove all ashes or other debris from the fireplace. If the fireplace
is equipped with an ash dump, be sure to seal the door with furnace
cement or high temperature silicone. Be sure to check the damper
for proper operation and verify that the flue passageway is open.

Place the clamp over the lip of the damper and tighten the hold
down bolt until the clamp is securely attached to the damper. This
will prevent the damper from accidentally closing.

Manual and millivolt controlled gas logs may be installed as a
vented decorative log set in compliance with ANSI Z21.60 and
National Fuel Gas Code. When the gas logs are operated with the
damper open, non-combustible material and minimum mantel
requirements do not apply.

No greeting card, stockings, or ornamentation of any type should
be placed on or attached to the fireplace. This is a heating
appliance. The flow of heat can ignite combustibles.
