9. The installation must conform with local codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.l/NFPA54.
10. ThisunitcomplieswithANSI Z21.91ventlessrebox
enclosuresforgas-redunventeddecorativeroomheat-
ers.
11. Do not install heater in a bathroom or bedroom.
12. Correct installation of the logs, proper location of the
heater, and annual cleaning are necessary to avoid
potential problems with sooting. Sooting, resulting from
improper installation or operation, can settle on surfaces
outsidethereplace.Seelogplacementinstructionsfor
proper installation.
13. Avoidanydraftsthatalterburneramepatterns.Donot
allowfanstoblowdirectlyintoreplace.Donotplace
ablowerinsideburnareaofrebox.Ceilingfansmay
createdraftsthatalterburneramepatterns.Sootingand
improper burning will occur.
14. Caution: Candles, incense, oil lamps, etc. produce
combustion byproducts including soot. Vent-free appli-
anceswillnotlterorcleansootproducedbythesetypes
of products. In addition, the smoke and/or aromatics
(scents) may be reburnt in the vent-free appliance which
can produce odors. It is recommended to minimize the
use of candles, incense, etc. while the vent-free appliance
is in operation.
15. Anunventedgas-redheaterusesair(oxygen)fromthe
room in which it is installed. Provisions for adequate
combustion and ventilation air must be provided. See
installation guidelines.

IMPORTANT
Read these instructions carefully before installing or trying to operate a vent-free gas heater in this rebox.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be
locatedoutoftrafcandawayfromfurnitureand
draperies.
2. Children and adults should be alerted to the hazard
of high surface temperature and should stay away
to avoid burns or clothing ignition.
3. Young children should be carefully supervised
when they are in the same room with the appli-
ance.
 4. Donotplaceclothingorotherammablematerial
on or near the appliance.
5. Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing
an appliance, must be replaced prior to operating
the heater.
 6. Installationandrepairshouldbedonebyaqualied
service person.
7. To prevent malfunction and/or sooting, an unvented
gas heater should be cleaned before use at least
annually by a professional service person. More
frequentcleaningmay berequireddue toexces-
sive lint from carpeting, bedding material, etc. It is
imperative that control compartments, burners and
circulating air passageways be kept clean.
8. CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING: Early signs of
carbonmonoxidepoisoningaresimilartotheuwith
headaches, dizziness and/or nausea. If you have these
signs, obtain fresh air immediately. Have the heater
serviced as it may not be operating properly. Continued on page 4

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Continued from page 3
16. Keep room area clear and free from combustible materi-
als,gasolineandotherammablevaporsandliquids.
17. Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone heater.
They are not intended to be a primary heating appli-
ance.
18. Unvented gas heaters emit moisture into the living area.
In most homes of average construction, this does not pose
aproblem.Inhousesofextremelytightconstruction,
additional mechanical ventilation is recommended.
19. During manufacturing, fabricating and shipping, various
components of this appliance are treated with certain
oils,lms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
appliance; possibly causing headaches, or eye or lung
irritation. This is a normal and temporary occurrence.
The initial break-in operation should last two to three
hours with the burner at the highest setting. Provide
maximumventilationbyopeningwindowsordoorsto
allow odors to dissipate. Any odors remaining after this
initial break-in period will be slight and will disappear
with continued use.
20. Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are for
elevations up to 2,000 feet. For elevations above 2,000
feet, input ratings should be reduced 4 percent for each
1,000 feet above sea level. Refer to the National Fuel
Gas Code.
21. The appliance and its appliance main gas 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).
22. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its equipment shutoff 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).
23. Do not use this room heater if any part has been under
water. Immediatelycallaqualiedservicetechnician
to inspect the room heater and to replace any part of the
control system and any gas control which has been under
water.
24. Neverburnsolidfuelsinareplacewhereaunvented
room heater is installed.
25. Alwayshaveareplacescreeninplacewhentheappli-
ance is in operation, and unless other provisions for
combustion air are provided, the screen shall have an
opening(s) for induction of combustion air.
26. Donotllspacesaroundthereboxwithinsulationor
other materials. These spaces must be maintained to
preventthereboxfromcomingincontactwithcom-
bustible materials.
