Hearth & Home Technologies
LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
Hearth & Home Technologies, on behalf of its hearth brands (“HHT”), extends the following warranty for HHT
gas, wood, pellet, coal and electric hearth appliances that are purchased from an HHT authorized dealer.
WARRANTY COVERAGE:
HHT warrants to the original owner of the HHT appliance at the site of installation, and to any transferee taking ownership
of the appliance at the site of installation within two years following the date of original purchase, that the HHT appliance
will be free from defects in materials and workmanship at the time of manufacture. After installation, if covered compo-
nents manufactured by HHT are found to be defective in materials or workmanship during the applicable warranty period,
HHT will, at its option, repair or replace the covered components. HHT, at its own discretion, may fully discharge all of its
obligations under such warranties by replacing the product itself or refunding the verified purchase price of the product
itself. The maximum amount recoverable under this warranty is limited to the purchase price of the product. This warranty
is subject to conditions, exclusions and limitations as described below.
WARRANTY PERIOD:
Warranty coverage begins on the date of original purchase. In the case of new home construction, warranty coverage
begins on the date of first occupancy of the dwelling or six months after the sale of the product by an independent,
authorized HHT dealer/ distributor, whichever occurs earlier. The warranty shall commence no later than 24 months
following the date of product shipment from HHT, regardless of the installation or occupancy date. The warranty period for
parts and labor for covered components is produced in the following table.
The term “Limited Lifetime” in the table below is defined as: 20 years from the beginning date of warranty coverage for
gas appliances, and 10 years from the beginning date of warranty coverage for wood, pellet, and coal appliances. These
time periods reflect the minimum expected useful lives of the designated components under normal operating conditions.

LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY:
• The owner’s exclusive remedy and HHT’s sole obligation under this warranty, under any other warranty, express or
implied, or in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be limited to replacement, repair, or refund, as specified above. In no
event will HHT be liable for any incidental or consequential damages caused by defects in the appliance. Some states
do not allow exclusions or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so these limitations may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific rights; you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state. EXCEPT TO
THE EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, HHT MAKES NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THE WARRANTY
SPECIFIED HEREIN. THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO DURATION OF THE

4. An IFT-ECM reset is required if the module is in a
lock-out condition. When this occurs, the appliance
is shut down and the IFT-ECM status indicator LED
will be blinking a RED/GREEN error code along with a
one-time audible double- beep. If the IFT-ECM is in a
lock-out condition, refer to the troubleshooting chart to
interpret the error code and take corrective action as
required. To reset the IFT-ECM after a lock-out error:
1. The Electronic Control Module (IFT-ECM) has a
three-position ON/OFF/REMOTE selector switch
that must be set for proper operation. See Figure
3.6. When changing switch positions,it is important
to pause in each position for 1-2 seconds.
OFF Position:
The appliance will not respond to any commands
from a wired wall switch, IFT-RC150 or IFT-RC400

5 Frequently Asked Questions and Troubleshooting
A. Frequently Asked Questions - Appliance
ISSUE SOLUTIONS
Condensation on the glass This is a result of gas combustion and temperature variations. As the fireplace warms, this
condensation will disappear.
Blue flames This is a result of normal operation and the flames will begin to yellow as the fireplace is al-
lowed to burn for 20 to 40 minutes.
Odor from fireplace
When first operated, this fireplace may release an odor for the first several hours. This is caused
by the curing of the paint and the burning off of any oils remaining from manufacturing. Odor
may also be released from finishing materials and adhesives used around the fireplace. These
circumstances may require additional curing related to the installation environment.
Film on the glass
This is a normal result of the curing process of the paint and logs. Glass should be cleaned
within 3 to 4 hours of initial burning to remove deposits left by oils from the manufacturing
process. A non-abrasive cleaner such as gas fireplace glass cleaner may be necessary. See
your dealer.
Metallic noise
Noise is caused by metal expanding and contracting as it heats up and cools down, similar to
the sound produced by a furnace or heating duct. This noise does not affect the operation or
longevity of the fireplace.
Is it normal to see the pilot flame burn
continually?
In an intermittent pilot ignition system (IPI), the pilot flame should turn off when appliance is
turned off. Some optional control systems available with IPI models may allow pilot flame to
remain lit.
Teco-Sil
There may be some “cracking” noise coming from the fireplace during the first few heating
and cooling cycles. This noise is associated with settling rock and some minor cracking of
larger pieces of rock. This will lessen over time as the Teco-Sil is conditioned to the heating
and cooling temperature changes.
Power Outages
(battery backup)
This appliance can be operated on battery power in the event of a power outage. To access
the battery pack, the decorative front, mesh and glass assembly must be removed. Refer to
Section 3 for more details.
Wall above appliance feels hot to
the touch.
No action necessary. This appliance ships with a non-combustible material attached. Speci-
fications of the attached non-combustible material are listed in the Installer’s Manual for this
appliance.
