IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Element4 Gas Fireplaces EuropeanHome.com
CAUTION - HOT! HOT! HOT!
This appliance is a HEATING appliance and it does become very hot in operation.
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, DO NOT PLACE any object, furniture, draperies or other item LESS THAN 36”/90 cm IN
FRONT OF THE GLASS OF THE FIREPLACE.
CHILDREN AND PETS
Radiant heat can heat surfaces such as the surround and trims of the replace to temperatures that, although approved
safe, can be quite uncomfortable to touch - particularly for children and pets. Children and pets should always be
supervised when in the room where the appliance is located. Remote control handset should be kept out of reach of
children. In the presence of children, we STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you install in front of the replace: a re screen or,
to protect young toddlers, a “hearth gate”.
HOT SURFACES
Be aware that, although safe, some combustible materials and nishes, even though installed at
listed clearances may, over time, discolor, warp or show cracks.
Convective heat will exit the unit and travel up the wall surface if not impeded. Protruding
mantels and projections can help direct the heat away from the wall. AVOID placing heat
sensitive items such as televisions, paintings, decorations, etc. above replaces or near the edge
of protrusions unless appropriate.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Make yourself fully aware of all the following instructions and the many features of the Element4
direct vent gas replace appliance.
INSTALLER: Leave this manual with the appliance.

USER INFORMATION
Element4 Gas Fireplaces EuropeanHome.com
The Element4 replaces are direct vent replaces and, as such, the intake and exhaust are both handled through the vent pipe. The
replace also provides convection air to your room. The illustration shows one of the unique features of the Element4 replaces - its
use of warm, convection air ow.
Other replaces have louvered metal boxes around them to keep temperatures under control. The Element4 replaces use your
enclosing walls, or chase, to guide this warm air. This design, therefore, requires the use of non-combustible wall materials and gives
you beauty for your eort.
When the air within the chase is warmed by the replace, it rises and exits through the Convection Air Outlet. This air is then replaced
by room air which enters the chase just above the replace glass and through the Wall Access Door. As the exiting warm air cools, it
falls to the oor where it's drawn into the inlets and the cycle repeats.
The replace provides the inlet for room air as part of its design; you provide the warm air outlet as part of your design.
See the ENCLOSING the FIREPLACE section of this manual for more information.

CLEARANCES
Element4 Gas Fireplaces EuropeanHome.com
The Sky and Sky T replaces require non-combustible framing.
These are NOT zero-clearance fireplaces. All clearances to
combustible AND non-combustible materials MUST be maintained
as described in this manual.
LOCATING THE FIREPLACE
When selecting a location for the replace:
• Ensure that all minimum clearances to combustible AND non-
combustible materials are met.
• Provide adequate clearances for servicing.
• Consider venting dimensions (rise, run and number of
elbows, etc.) when selecting the location for your replace.
• Locate the appliance out of trac and away from furniture
and draperies.
• Keep the location free of electrical, plumbing or other
heating/air conditioning ducting.
PLACING THE FIREPLACE
The base upon which the appliance rests must be sturdy, level
and built to safely support at least 500 pounds/230 kilograms.
The base may be the oor or a purpose built raised platform (e.g.
wood,metal). The base upon which the replace is installed must
have a 25 in.2/161 cm2opening centered in it to allow the free ow
of air to the replace above unless placed on a oor. See below.
MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
• The appliance is approved with a minimum clearance to
combustible materials of 26”/660 mm to the top, 11”/280
mm on all sides and 4”/100 mm to the bottom. Any spacer
or framing used closer than this dimension must be non-
combustible (e.g. metal).
• The minimum clearance to non-combustible material is
2”/50 mm. (See Figures 7 - 12, clearance shown in red)
• The minimum distance from the bottom of the appliance to
the room ceiling is 72”/1830 mm. (See Figure 15, Table 2)
• When installing the venting the following clearances to
combustible materials MUST be maintained:
a. 3”/76 mm above any horizontal venting
b. 1”/25 mm to venting sides or below any horizontal
venting
• Non-combustible materials may be installed to a zero
clearance, to the outer faces of the appliance outer frame.
However, they must not cover (or prevent the removal of)
the glass panels or the control equipment.
• Do not block or restrict the convection gap between the
appliance rebox and the appliance outer frame (top of
glass panels).
The minimum clearances (air spaces) to combustible materials
must be maintained. It is of the greatest importance that the
replace and vent system be installed only in accordance with
these instructions.
Clearance to combustibles summary:
Back: 11”/280 mm
Sides: 11”/280 mm
Top: 26”/660 mm
Floor: 4”/100 mm
The Floor dimension (above) is measured from the bottom of the
rebox. This allows the feet to sit on the oor giving adequate
clearance in their lowest position.
The feet on the appliance are designed to sit on a at platform,
however the appliance must not be installed on any combustible
material other than wood. For example, carpet or linoleum bases
are not permitted.
Do not place anything between the bottom of the rebox and
the bottom of the feet. Ensure that the lineset (which includes the
gas valve, electrical wiring, and gas lines) does not impede the full
operation of the relief doors.

MANTELS
The graph in Figure 13 shows a range of allowable depths and heights for a combustible mantel installation.
As shown, the minimum allowable mantel height above the replace opening is 2”/50 mm with a 1”/25 mm deep mantel.
The maximum mantel depth is 12”/300 mm at a minimum height above the replace opening of 13”/330 mm.
All of the mantel height/depth combinations fall in between these extremes in accordance with Figure 13.
Mantels made of non-combustible material are allowed inside these dimensions but they will be subjected to elevated
temperatures and may become too hot to touch.
A typical completed installation with mantel is shown in Figure 14.

GAS and ELECTRIC
Element4 Gas Fireplaces EuropeanHome.com
INSTALLING THE GAS LINE
Correctly size and route the gas supply line from the supply regulator to the area where the appliance is to be installed as per
requirements outlined in the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54 (USA) or CAN/CSA-B149.1 (Canada).
Never use galvanized or plastic pipe unless specied for use with gas. Refer to the table below for proper sizing of the supply gas
line. Gas lines must be routed, constructed and made of materials that are in strict accordance with local codes and regulations. A
qualied plumber or gas tter should be hired to correctly size and route the gas supply line to the appliance.
Installing a gas supply line from the fuel supply to the appliance involves numerous considerations of materials, protection, sizing,
locations, controls, pressure, sediment trap, and other criteria. The sizing and/or installing of gas piping should only be performed
by a qualied plumber or gastter.
The gas control inlet accepts a ⁄” NPT tting.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The Element4 replaces use a receiver and remote control for their burner operation. The remote control comes with (3) AAA
batteries and the receiver is powered by a 120V AC adapter, included.
The installer must provide an approved 120V AC wall receptacle to be placed within the six foot cord limit of the AC adapter.
The receiver may be powered by either the AC adapter or (4) AA batteries - not both. Batteries do not provide an electrical backup
for the AC adapter. Using batteries in combination with the AC adapter can damage the receiver.
Electrical work must be performed by a qualied, licensed electrician.
All wiring shall be in compliance with all local, city, and state codes.
WARNING
This replace arrives from the factory for use with natural gas. See Appendix Three for LP (propane) conversion instructions.

VENTING
Element4 Gas Fireplaces EuropeanHome.com
For the M&G venting installation guide or power venting installation manuals
please visit the link below.
• Only the 5” x 8” direct vent components from M&G DuraVent are approved for use with these replaces. Any of the M&G
DuraVent 5”x 8” direct vent components suitable for the local condition are permitted. Please visit www.europeanhome.com/
qr-support or via the QR code below for installation instructions.
• This replace is shipped with a North American venting adapter. It MUST attach to the vent collar of the replace.
• All venting measurements are taken from the top center of the vent collar on the top of the replace and all congurations
must fall within the acceptable range of the venting charts.
• When using wall terminations no more than three vertically-oriented 45° or 90° elbows are permitted. See the HORIZONTAL
TERMINATIONS section.
• When using vertical terminations no more than four 90° elbows OR eight 45° elbows OR a combination totaling no more than
360 ‘elbow degrees’. For example, a combination of two 90° elbows and two 45° elbows is allowed (90° + 90° + 45°+ 45° equals
270°) but a combination of three 90° elbows and three 45° elbows is not allowed (the total equals 405°.) These elbows can be
installed either horizontally or vertically.
• A minimum clearance of 3”/75 mm must be maintained between combustible materials and the top of any horizontal vent
pipe surface; a minimum clearance of 1”/25 mm must be maintained between combustible materials and any other vent pipe
surface.
• The horizontal parts of the venting must be pitched up, away from the replace. For every 12” / 305 mm of horizontal run, the
venting must rise ¼”⁄ 6.5 mm toward the termination. The venting must never run downward unless with the use of a power
vent.
• Whenever venting passes through a wall, an approved heat shield or‘wall thimble’ must be installed.
• A power vent system is available and must be used for any venting conguration which is outside of the vent graphs.
All of the following points apply to every installation:
• The maximum allowable rise is 36’/11.0 mand the maximum allowable run is 16’4”/5.0 mbut not in combination.
• The minimum vent conguration is a 19”/0.5 mvertical rise to a 90° elbow plus a 39”/1.0 mhorizontal run to a wall termination.
CONFIGURING THE VENTING
The replaces in this manual are direct vent replaces that use a co-axial or “pipe within a pipe” venting system. The outer “pipe” or vent
conducts fresh, outside air into the replace and the inner vent carries the exhaust outside. This system, which can run either horizontally
throughaside wallor verticallythroughthe roof,producesanecientsystembecauseconditionedbuildingair isnot usedfor combustion.
