PRODUCT FEATURES
OPERATION
This vent-free fireplace is clean burning. It requires
no outside venting. There is no heat loss out a
vent or up a chimney. Heat is generated by both
realistic flames and glowing embers. When used
without the optional blower, the fireplace requires
no electricity making it ideal for emergency
backup heat.
SAFETY DEVICE
This fireplace has a pilot with an Oxygen Depletion
Sensing (ODS) safety shutoff system. The ODS/
pilot is a required feature for vent-free room heat-
ers. The ODS/pilot system shuts off the fireplace
if there is not enough fresh air.
PIEZO IGNITION SYSTEM
This fireplace has a piezo ignitor. This system
requires no matches, batteries, or other sources
to light fireplace.
WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL
This fireplace features an infrared wireless remote
control. This control system can be used to auto-
matically light the pilot and adjust the burner flame
height at the push of a button.
WIRED WALL-MOUNTED REMOTE
CONTROL
This fireplace features a two-button wall switch as-
sembly with glowing LEDʼs. The wall switch per-
forms the same functions as the wireless hand-held
remote control with the added feature of LEDʼs for
visual feedback of operation and status.
BLOWER ASSEMBLY
This fireplace includes a blower assembly. The
blower operates thermostatically. The blower circu-
lates heated air from the fireplace into the room.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION
AND VENTILATION
WARNING: This heater shall
not be installed in a confined
space or unusually tight con-
struction unless provisions are
provided for adequate combus-
tion and ventilation air. Read the
following instructions to insure
proper fresh air for this and
other fuel-burning appliances
in your home.
Todayʼs homes are built more energy efficient than
ever. New materials, increased insulation, and
new construction methods help reduce heat loss
in homes. Home owners weather strip and caulk
around windows and doors to keep the cold air out
and the warm air in. During heating months, home
owners want their homes as airtight as possible.
While it is good to make your home energy effi-
cient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh air must
enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need
fresh air for proper combustion and ventilation.
Exhaust fans, fireplaces, clothes dryers, and fuel
burning appliances draw air from the house to
operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for
these appliances. This will insure proper venting
of vented fuel-burning appliances.

PROVIDING ADEQUATE
VENTILATION
The following are excerpts from National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 5.3, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation.
All spaces in homes fall into one of the three fol-
lowing ventilation classifications:
1. Unusually Tight Construction
2. Unconfined Space
3. Confined Space
The information on pages 5 through 8 will help
you classify your space and provide adequate
ventilation.
Unusually Tight Construction
The air that leaks around doors and windows
may provide enough fresh air for combustion and
ventilation. However, in buildings of unusually
tight construction, you must provide additional
fresh air.
Unusually tight construction is defined as
construction where:
a. walls and ceilings exposed to the out-
side atmosphere have a continuous
water vapor retarder with a rating of
one perm (6 x 10-11 kg per pa-sec-m2) or
less with openings gasketed or sealed
and
b. weather stripping has been added on
openable windows and doors and
c. caulking or sealants are applied to
areas such as joints around window
and door frames, between sole plates
and floors, between wall-ceiling joints,
between wall panels, at penetrations
for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines,
and at other openings.
If your home meets all of the three criteria
above, you must provide additional fresh
air. See Ventilation Air From Outdoors,
page 7.
If your home does not meet all of the three
criteria above, proceed to Determining
Fresh-Air Flow for Fireplace Location.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION
AND VENTILATION
Continued
Confined Space and Unconfined Space
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 (4.8 m3 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 m3 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.
* Adjoining rooms are communicating only if
there are doorless passageways or ventilation grills
between them.
DETERMINING FRESH-AIR FLOW
FOR HEATER LOCATION
Determining if You Have a Confined or
Unconfined Space
Use this work sheet to determine if you have a
confined or unconfined space.
Space: Includes the room in which you will install
heater plus any adjoining rooms with doorless pas-
sageways or ventilation grills between the rooms.
1. Determine the volume of the space (length x
width x height).
Length x Width x Height = cu. ft. (volume
of space)
Example: Space size 20 ft. (length) x 18 ft.
(width) x 8 ft. (ceiling height) = 2880 cu. ft.
(volume of space)
If additional ventilation to adjoining room is sup-
plied with grills or openings, add the volume of
these rooms to the total volume of the space.
2. Multiply the space volume by 20 to determine
the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support.
_______ (volume of space) x 20 = (Maximum
Btu/Hr the space can support)
Example: 2880 cu. ft. (volume of space) x 20 =
57,600 (maximum Btu/Hr the space can support)

www.desatech.com
110112-01C 7
3. Add the Btu/Hr of all fuel burning appliances
in the space.
Vent-free heater _______ Btu/Hr
Gas water heater* _______ Btu/Hr
Gas furnace _______ Btu/Hr
Vented gas heater _______ Btu/Hr
Gas fireplace logs _______ Btu/Hr
Other gas appliances* + _______ Btu/Hr
Total = _______ Btu/Hr
* Do not include direct-vent gas appliances.
Direct-vent draws combustion air from the
outdoors and vents to the outdoors.
Example:
Gas water heater _______ Btu/Hr
Vent-free heater + _______ Btu/Hr
Total = _______ Btu/Hr
4. Compare the maximum Btu/Hr the space can
support with the actual amount of Btu/Hr used.
__________ Btu/Hr (maximum the space
can support)
__________ Btu/Hr (actual amount of
Btu/Hr used)
Example: 57,600 Btu/Hr (maximum the
space can support)
73,000 Btu/Hr (actual amount
of Btu/Hr used)
The space in the above example is a confined
space because the actual Btu/Hr used is more than
the maximum Btu/Hr the space can support. You
must provide additional fresh air. Your options
are as follows:
A. Rework worksheet, adding the space of an
adjoining room. If the extra space provides an
unconfined space, remove door to adjoining
room or add ventilation grills between rooms.
See Ventilation Air From Inside Building.
B. Vent room directly to the outdoors. See Ven-
tilation Air From Outdoors.
C. Install a lower Btu/Hr heater, if lower Btu/Hr
size makes room unconfined.
If the actual Btu/Hr used is less than the maxi-
mum Btu/Hr the space can support, the space is
an unconfined space. You will need no additional
fresh air ventilation.

WARNING: If the area in
which the heater may be oper-
ated is smaller than that defined
as an unconfined 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.
VENTILATION AIR
Ventilation Air From Inside Building
This fresh air would come from an adjoining un-
confined space. When ventilating to an adjoining
unconfined space, you must provide two perma-
nent openings: one within 12" of the ceiling and
one within 12" of the floor on the wall connecting
the two spaces (see options 1 and 2, Figure 3). You
can also remove door into adjoining room (see
option 3, Figure 3). Follow the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Section 5.3, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation for required size of
ventilation grills or ducts.

or other flammable objects are
less than 42 inches from the front,
top, or sides of the fireplace
• in high traffic areas
• in windy or drafty areas
CAUTION: This fireplace cre-
ates warm air currents. These
currents move heat to wall sur-
faces next to fireplace. Installing
fireplace next to vinyl or cloth
wall coverings or operating
fireplace where impurities (such
as, but not limited to, tobacco
smoke, aromatic candles, clean-
ing fluids, oil or kerosene lamps,
etc.) in the air exist, may discolor
walls or cause odors.

For Recessed Installation
If fireplace is to be recessed into a wall (see
Built-In Fireplace Installation, page 17), we
recommend mounting wall switch assembly to
left side of fireplace. The wall switch assembly
should be mounted approximately 12" from left
edge of fireplace, and less than 60" from the floor.
IMPORTANT: Do not locate wall switch assembly
directly in front of wall stud - there must be room
behind wall board for wires from switch. If you
choose to locate wall switch assembly to right side
of fireplace, the length of the cord restricts you to
less than 6" from right edge of fireplace and less
than 48" from floor.
For Mantel Installation
If fireplace is to be installed into a mantel, (see
Conventional Fireplace Installation, page 16) the
wall switch assembly may be mounted on either
side of the mantel, facing to the side. Do not locate
wall switch assembly anywhere on the front face
of the mantel.
CAUTION: Be careful of gas
lines and wiring when moving
floor.
1. Determine the new location for the wall switch
assembly. The wires attached to switch are six
feet long.
2. Remove 2 screws securing plastic wall switch
assembly to bracket in fireplace lower cavity.
Save screws.
3. Remove wire tie holding coiled wire attached
to wall switch assembly (see Figure 8).
4. Remove wall switch assembly from bracket.
5. Carefully pass wall switch assembly and cord
through large elongated hole in rear of either
left or right floor support bracket, depending on
desired location of switch. Pass wall switch as-
sembly and cord through 1.5" diameter hole in
side of fireplace outer casing (see Figure 9).
6. Pull wall switch assembly and cord from
fireplace making sure wall switch assembly
will reach desired mounting location without
straining cord assembly.
If you are mounting wall switch assembly to a

INSTALLING GAS PIPING TO
FIREPLACE LOCATION
WARNING: A qualified
service person must connect
fireplace to gas supply. Follow
all local codes.
WARNING: For propane/LP
units, never connect fireplace
directly to propane/LP supply.
This fireplace requires an external
regulator (not supplied). Install the
external regulator between the
heater and propane/LP supply.
WARNING: For natural gas
units, never connect fireplace
to private (non-utility) gas wells.
This gas is commonly known as
wellhead gas.
Installation Items Needed
Before installing fireplace, make sure you have
the items listed below.
• external regulator (supplied by installer, for
propane/LP units only)
• piping (check local codes)
• sealant (resistant to propane/LP gas)
• equipment shutoff valve *
• test gauge connection *
• sediment trap
• tee joint
• pipe wrench
• approved flexible gas line with gas connector
(if allowed by local codes) (not provided)
* A CSA design-certified equipment shutoff valve
with 1/8" NPT tap is an acceptable alternative to
test gauge connection. Purchase the optional CSA
design-certified equipment shutoff valve from your
dealer. See Accessories, page 37.
INSTALLATION
Continued
For propane/LP units, the installer must supply
an external regulator. The external regulator will
reduce incoming gas pressure. You must reduce
incoming gas pressure to between 11 and 14 inches
of water. If you do not reduce incoming gas pres-
sure, heater regulator damage could occur. Install
external regulator with the vent pointing down
as shown in Figure 14. Pointing the vent down
protects it from freezing rain or sleet.
CAUTION: Use only new,
black iron or steel pipe. Inter-
nally-tinned copper tubing may
be used in certain areas. Check
your local codes. Use pipe of
1/2" diameter or greater to allow
proper gas volume to fireplace.
If pipe is too small, undue loss
of volume will occur.
Installation must include an equipment shutoff valve,
union, and plugged 1/8" NPT tap. Locate NPT tap
within reach for test gauge hook up. NPT tap must
be upstream from fireplace (see Figure 14).
IMPORTANT: Install equipment shutoff valve
in an accessible location. The equipment shutoff
valve is for turning on or shutting off the gas to
the appliance.
Check your building codes for any special re-
quirements for locating equipment shutoff valve
to fireplaces.
Apply pipe joint sealant lightly to male NPT threads.
This will prevent excess sealant from going into pipe.
Excess sealant in pipe could result in clogged fire-
place valves. Never use sealant on flare threads.
WARNING: Use pipe joint
sealant that is resistant to liquid
petroleum (LP) gas.

We recommend that you install a sediment trap in
supply line as shown in Figure 15. Locate sediment
trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in
piping system between fuel supply and fireplace.
Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not
likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture
and contaminants. This keeps them from going
into fireplace gas controls. If sediment trap is not
installed or is installed wrong, fireplace may not
run properly.

tion the parts in accordance
with these diagrams or failure
to use only parts specifically
approved with this heater may
result in property damage or
personal injury.
CAUTION: After installation
and periodically thereafter, check
to ensure that no yellow flame
comes in contact with any log.
With the heater set to HI, check
to see if flames contact any log.
If so, reposition logs according to
the log installation instructions in
this manual. Yellow flames con-
tacting logs will create soot.
It is very important to install the logs exactly as
instructed. Do not modify logs. Only use logs sup-
plied with heater. Before installing logs, make sure
log alignment screws are in place and straight.
1. Place log #1 (ember bed) onto base over log
alignment screws to the left of front burner and
behind middle burner. Log #1 will sit on top
of front and middle burners (see Figure 31).
2. Place log #2 to right of log #1 and onto log
alignment screw as shown in Figure 32. Log
#2 will wrap around right end of rear burner.
