This fireplace is a vented product. This fireplace
will not produce any gas leakage into your home if
properly installed. This fireplace must be installed
by a qualified (certified or licensed) service person.
If this unit is not properly installed by a qualified
service person gas and/or carbon monoxide leak-
age (spillage) can occur.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning:
Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning resemble the flu, with
headaches, dizziness or nausea. If you have these
signs, the fireplace may not be working properly.
Get fresh air at once! Have fireplace serviced.
Some people are more affected by carbon monoxide
than others. These include pregnant women, people
with heart or lung disease or anemia, those under the
influence of alcohol and those at high altitudes.
Natural and Propane/LP Gas:
Natural and propane/

added to these gases. The odor helps you detect a gas
leak. However, the odor added to the gas can fade.
Gas may be present even though no odor exists.
