GAS SUPPLY TESTING
Note: This section is intended as a guide for quali-
ed technicians installing gas to this appliance.
CAUTION: Do not connect
appliancebeforepressuretest-
inggaspiping.Damagetogas
valvemayresultandanunsafe
conditionmaybecaused.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at
test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas sup-
ply piping system by closing its individual manual
shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
This unit has been tested for installation at high
altitude. Higher altitudes affect the atmospheric
pressure and heat valve of gaseous fuels. When
installing this unit at high altitudes, the rated
input will be lower than at sea level. The lowered
oxygen content in the air and the lowered gas
density require installation of a different size
orice in order to achieve clean combustion of
the unit. Consult the unit data plate for the proper
high-altitude orice size. Fill out the information
sticker attached to the unit when eld converting.
See Specications, page 15, when derating.
The gas control valve is secured to the burner pan
assembly underneath the front ledge. A 1/8" NPT
plugged tapping is provided on the gas control
valve for a test gauge connection immediately
upstream of the gas supply connection to the ap-
pliance (see Figures 13 and 14).

MANTELS
Mantels, combustible or non-combustible, may
be constructed as long as proper clearances are
observed (see Figure 5, page 6 and Clearances,

PILOT ASSEMBLY ADJUSTMENT
The pilot assembly is factory preset for the proper
ame height. Alteration to factory settings may
have occurred during shipping. If this is the case,
some minor readjustments may be necessary and
should be done by a qualied technician.
The pilot assembly is located behind the burner
next to the rear refractory piece at the right-hand
side. The thermopile (in millivolt models) or the
sensor (in electronic models) should be engulfed
with the pilot ame approximately 3/8" to 1/2" in
order for the regulator to receive proper signal (see
Figures 18 and 19).
Figure 17 - Fireplace Facing Material
Figure 18 - Correct Pilot Flame Pattern -

BURNER FLAME ADJUSTMENT
The air shutter, located at the base of the main
burner tube, has been factory preset to the proper
air to bas ratio which results in a long, blue, cleaner
burning ame (see Figure 20).
If readjustment is necessary, loosen the air shut-
ter screw and rotate air shutter until proper ame
setting is achieved, retighten air shutter screw. See
Figure 20 for air shutter location.
Closing the air shutter reduces the air-to-gas mix,
resulting in a longer, yellow ame which produces
excessive carbon monoxide (CO) and could also
cause sooting.
