WARNING: Any change to this heater or its con-

trols can be dangerous.

space or unusually tight construction unless provi-

NOTES

•

Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be 

located out of traffic and away from furniture and 

draperies.

• 

Installation and repair must be done by a qualified service 

person or gas appliance installer.

•

The appliance must be inspected before use and at least 

annually by a professional service person. More frequent 

cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from 

carpeting, bedding material, dust and pet hair, etc. It is 

important that the control compartment, burners and cir-

culating air passageways of the appliance be kept clean. 

After servicing, always check for leaks.

•

DO NOT place clothing or other flammable material on 

or near the appliance.

•

The installation must conform with local codes or, in the 

absence of local codes, with the NATIONAL FUEL GAS 

CODE, ANSI Z223/NFPA 54, latest edition.

•

Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing an appli-

ance must be replaced prior to operating the heater.

•

DO NOT use this heater in recreational vehicles, bed-

rooms or bathrooms.

•

If this is the ONLY gas appliance, we recommend a 

minimum 200 pound cylinder with a fill gauge.  Use 

of a 100 pound cylinder is not recommended.  Other 

household gas appliances may require the tank size 

to be larger. Do not operate the vent-free heater if the 

fuel level in the propane tank is below 1/4 full.

•

DO NOT use this heater if any part of it has been under 

water. Immediately call a qualified technician to inspect the 

appliance and replace any part of the control system and 

any gas control which has been under water.

•

Check local, state or city codes to determine if un-

vented heaters are permitted. 

•

This appliance may be installed in an after-market* manu-

factured “mobile” home where not prohibited by state or 

local codes.

*After-market:  Completion of sale, not for purpose of re-sale from the 

manufacturer.

Children and adults should be alerted to the hazard of high 

surface temperature and should stay away to avoid burns or 

clothing ignition.

To avoid irreparable damage to the appliance or personal in-

jury; matches, paper, garbage or any other material must not 

be placed or thrown on top of the logs or into the flames.

To avoid personal injury, do not touch hot surfaces when 

the appliance is operating.

Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is being 

operated near children.

This appliance is intended to be used only for supplemental 

heat. Do not use it routinely as a primary heat source. 

Continuous operation could produce excessive humidity de-

pending on construction characteristics and outdoor tempera-

tures (below 20°F). Over time, this could cause condensation 

to form and damage wall structures and exterior paint.

WARNING:  Do not use a blower insert, heat ex-

changer insert or other accessory not approved 

for use with this heater.

WARNING: Do not allow fans to blow directly into 

the fireplace.  Avoid any drafts that alter burner 

flame patterns.

WARNING:  During manufacturing, fabricating 

and shipping, various components of this appli-

ance are treated with certain oils, films or bonding 

agents.  These chemicals are not harmful but may 

produce annoying smoke and smells as they are 

burned off during the initial operation of the appli-

ance, possibly causing headaches and eye/lung 

irritation.  This is a normal and temporary occur-

rence.

WARNING:  If the area in which the heater may be 

operated is smaller than that defined as an uncon-

fined space or if the building is of unusually tight 

construction, provide adequate combustion and 

ventilation air by one of the methods described in 

the National Fuel Gas code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, 

section 5.3 or applicable local codes.

WARNING: Do not install glass doors on this fire-

place.

The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 

54 defines a confined space as a space whose 

volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu 

per hour (4.8m

3

 per kw) of the aggregate input 

rating of all appliances installed in that space and 

an unconfined space as a space whose volume is 

not less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btu per hour 

(4.8 m

3

 per kw) of the aggregate input rating of all 

appliances installed in that space.  Rooms com-

municating directly with the space in which the 

appliances are installed, through openings not 

furnished with doors, are considered a part of the 

unconfined space.
