L P GAS CYLINDER INSTALLATION
The first step to installing your LP gas cylinder is to remove the pedestal base door, found at the rear
of the appliance. Then you slide the tank into place, there is a round hole which the base of the LP
cylinder will fit into. Then you would attach the regulator hose assembly, leak test (see page 11) and
replace the pedestal door.
Insert bottom of cylinder into hole.

NATURAL GAS SAFETY INFORMATION
In addition to LP gas your unit can be operated on natural gas. It is designed to be operated at a
pressure of 7 water column (WC) (1/4 p.s.i. or 1.75 kPa) regulated at the residential meter. Check
with your gas utility for local gas pressure and with your local municipality for building code
requirements. If your residential gas utility line pressure has not been regulated to 7 WC contact
your local gas service provider or local dealer for assistance.
Gas units are preset at the factory to run on ei ther natural gas or LP gas. Do not convert yourself.
Conversion should be done by a qualified technician.
Check with your gas service provider or with local building codes for instructions to install the gas
supply line. This installation must be done by a licensed and qualified installer.
An ON-OFF shutoff valve must be installed between the gas supply source and the fireplace.
Inspect the hose assembly for damage prior to each use. If the hose is damaged or there are signs
of excessive abrasion o r wear replace the hose. See page 9 on how to gain access to hose
assembly.
For outdoor fireplaces that are to be used with natural gas the appliance and its individual shutoff
valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any press ure testing of the gas
system at test pressures exceeding 1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
For outdoor fireplaces that are to be used with natural gas the appliance must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut off valve du ring any pressure testing of
the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
GAS SAFETY INFORMATION
How to Leak Test Your Appliance
Mix a solution of liquid soap and water in a small container.
Make sure that the gas supply is turned on. For LP gas appliances make sure that the valve on
the gas cylinder is turned on.
Ensure that the gas control valve on the appliance is in the OFF position.
Use a spray bottle or a small brush and liberally apply the solution to the gas line and to each
connection.
If there are bubbles forming this means that a leak is present.
Tighten any connections that may be loose and leak test again.
If no more leaks are found use the appliance, if leaks persist and cannot be stopped tur n off the
gas supply and contact your distributor or local gas service technician for assistance.
Leak testing with a
small brush.
WARNING : Do not use an open flame to test for gas leaks.

INSTALLATION & SAFETY NOTES
Read all instructions before starting installation and follow them carefully during installation to ensure
maximum benefit and safety. Failure to follow these instructions will void your warranty and may
present a fire hazard. See the warranty at the back of this manual for disclaimers regarding improper
installation. This outdoor fireplace and it s components are tested and safe when installed in
accordance with this installation manual.
UNPACKING
Please check the appliance carefully for any damaged or missing components. Report any problems
to your dealer within 30 days of purchase.
MINIMUM CLEARANCES
The minimum clearance to combustibles for the sides and the top is 36 (914 mm).
This outdoor fireplace is suitable for installation on a combustible surface.
Clearances are in accordance with local installation codes and the requirements of the gas
suppl ier.
Pedestal Door Installation
Fit the door tabs into the notches on each side of the pedestal base and let door slide down into
place. Removal is the reverse.
Tabs fit into slots
Lift door up and out.

Page 12 of 18
INITIAL FIRING
When lit for the first time, the appliance may emit an odor resulting from evaporation of paint and
lubricants used in the manufacturing process. This is normal and will subside after the unit has run
for an hour or so.
PRIMARY AIR ADJUSTMENT
Aeration is factory set but may need adjustment for altitude or movemen t during shipping. To adjust
the air shutter remove the pedestal door, at the rear of the unit, loosen the screw which holds the
aeration adjustment shutter in place and rotate the adjustment shutter to increase or decrease
primary air ( see below ) and tig hten the screw. Increasing the primary air will cause the flame to
appear more transparent and blue. Decreasing the primary air will cause the flames to appear more
yellow or orange. Evaluate the aeration only after the unit has warmed up approximately 15 minutes.
If the unit shows signs of carbon build up increasing the primary air should alleviate this problem.
Aeration adjustment is important for the correct functioning of the appliance. Carbon build up, flame
lifting or any malfunction due to improper aeration adjustment during installation is not covered under
the factory warranty.
Aeration Adjustment Shutter
Caution: Parts requiring adjustment during operation may be hot.

Page 13 of 18
ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENT
All valves have been pre-set and certified for installation at elevations from 0 2000 feet (1 610m)
above sea level.
When installing this unit at higher elevations, it is necessary to decrease the input rating by replacing
the existing burner orifice with a smaller size for installations over 2000 feet (610m). The appliances
input should be reduced 4% for each additional 1000 feet (305m) above sea level. For the USA, de-
rate the unit from sea level according to the gas installation code.
FIELD ASSEMBLED PARTS
Your outdoor fireplace comes fully assembled, to finish assembling the unit you must do the following :
1. Install the lava rock on the burner base.
2. Connect the LP gas supply.
LAVA ROCK INSTALLATION
Install a layer of lava rock
in the area around the
burner.
Install a layer of fire glass
in the area on top of the
burner and add decorative
ceramic rocks if required.
CAUTION:
DO NOT PUT LAVA ROCK ON TOP OF THE BURNER
