Please retain these instructions for future reference
.
1. Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be
located out of traffic and away from furniture and
draperies.
. 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 appliance.
4. Do not place clothing or other flammable 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 qualified
service person.
7. To prevent malfunction and/or sooting, an unvented
gas heater should be cleaned before use and at
least annually by a professional service person.
More frequent cleaning may be required due to
excessive lint from carpeting, bedding materials,
etc. It is imperative that control compartments,
burners and circulating air passageways be kept
clean.
8. Early signs of
carbon monoxide poisoning are similar to the flu 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.
9. The installation must conform with local codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the
10. Do not install the DFX model in a bathroom or bedroom.
The DBX model may be installed in a bedroom, but
not in a bathroom.
11. Do not install the heaters in a bathroom or bedroom.
1. Correct installation of the ceramic fiber logs, proper
location of the heater, and annual cleaning are neces-
sary to avoid potential problems with sooting. Sooting,
resulting from improper installation or operation, can
settle on surfaces outside the fireplace. Refer to log
placement instructions for proper installation.
13. Avoid any drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Do not
allow fans to blow directly into fireplace. Do not place
a blower inside burn area of firebox. Ceiling fans may
create drafts that alter burner flame patterns. Sooting
and improper burning will occur.
14. Candles, incense, oil lamps, etc. produce
combustion byproducts including soot. Vent-free appli-
ances will not filter or clean soot produced by these
types of products. In addition, the smoke and/or aro-
matics (scents) may be reburnt in the vent-free appli-
ance which can produce odors. It is recommended to
minimize the use of candles, incense, etc. while the
vent-free appliance is in operation.
15. This is an unvented gas-fired heater. It uses air
(oxygen) from the room in which it is installed. Provi-
sions for adequate combustion and ventilation air must
be provided. Refer to
16. Keep room area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
17. Unvented gas heaters are a supplemental zone heater.
They are not intended to be the 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, films 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.

elevations up to ,000 feet. For elevations above ,000
feet, input ratings should be reduced 4 percent for each
1,000 feet above sea level. Refer to the National Fuel
Gas Code.
1. 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 pres-
sures in excess of 1/ psig (3.5 kPa).
. The appliance must be isolated from 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/ psig (3.5
kPa).
3. Do not use this room heater if any part has been under
water. Immediately call a qualified 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.
4. Never burn solid fuels in a fireplace where a unvented
room heater is installed.
5. Always have a fireplace screen in place when the
appliance is in operation and, unless other provisions
for combustion air are provided, the screen must have
an opening(s) for induction of combustion air.

This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless
provisions are provided for adequate combustion and ventilation air.
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 aggre-
gate 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 communicating directly
with the space in which the appliances are installed, through openings not furnished with doors,
are considered a part of the unconfined space.
a) walls and ceilings exposed to the outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor
retarder with a rating of 1 perm
(6 x 1011 kg per pa/sec-m) or less with openings gasketed or sealed;
b) weather striping 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 pen-
etrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines, and at other openings.
The following formula can be used to determine the maximum heater rating per the definition
of unconfined space:
(L1 + L) Ft x (W) Ft x (H) Ft
