Existing Fireplace Preparation
A few points must be considered before inserting the RF24 into an existing replace cavity. Generally, modications to
the existing replace that will compromise its integrity are NOT allowed. Components that are bolted or screwed on,
such as dampers or bafes, may be removed to accommodate the installation of the RF24 engine.
. Check
with local authorities if in doubt.
Have the chimney swept and the replace cavity including ash dumps and clean-outs cleaned before installing the
RF24 heater and vent liners. Any creosote or soot residue remaining in the replace cavity chimney or clean-out may
cause odors or stains once the RF24 insert is installed. Consult with chimney sweep for information on how best to
clean.
Factory-built, zero clearance replaces will require the damper to be removed in order to install the vent liners. These
dampers are usually bolted into place. Dampers in masonry replaces must be xed open and may remain in place.
Some replaces (particularly factory-built) have a raised curb at the front edge to retain ashes. Check the dimensions
carefully to ensure the RF24 engine will t behind any raised curb (some curbs may be removed separately from the
refractory base). The fret retainers allow for some vertical adjustment of the cast iron fret should the fret need to sit on
top of the curb, otherwise the fret will need to be eliminated or adequate room provided behind the curb.
Plan the routing of the gas line before proceeding. Utilize the existing hole for the gas line. If the factory-built replace
has no access hole, carefully drill an access hole of 1-1/2 inch (38 mm) or less through the lower sides or bottom of the
rebox. The access hole must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after the gas supply line has been installed.
See illustration in Dimensions section for detailed location of gas inlet. Also, take into consideration whether or not a
fan or shut-off valve will interfere when planning the routing of the gas line.
prior to installing the RF24 insert. Existing wire re screens
may remain in place or new ones may be added. The RF24 has been tested and approved to operate with wire re
screens in the or positions.
Combustible mantel clearances must conform to those required for the original solid-fuel replace into which the RF24
is being installed.
It may be desirable, for visual reasons, to paint the existing refractory liners in black to blend in with the RF24 insert
once installed.
(label supplied loose with RF24 heater)
Attach the label “This replace has been converted...” using screws or other mechanical
means and store any removed parts in the back of the existing replace for future use.

Supply Gas
• It is preferable to rough-in the gas line at this point before proceeding with the rebox installation.
• The gas supply inlet connection is a 3/8” NPT female connector. For detailed location of this connector, see
illustration in section Dimensions. If a circulating fan or isolating valve is to be installed, adjust the routing of the
gas line to suit.
• Use only new black iron or steel pipes or copper tubing if acceptable—check local codes. Note that in USA,
copper tubing must be internally tinned for protection against sulfur compounds.
• Unions in gas lines should be of ground joint type.
• The gas supply line must be sized and installed to provide a supply of gas sufcient to meet the maximum
demand of the appliance without undue loss of pressure.
• Sealant used must be resistant to the action of all gas constituents including LP gas. Sealant should be applied
lightly to male threads to ensure excess sealant does not enter gas lines.
• The supply line should include a manual shut-off valve and union to allow the appliance to be disconnected for
servicing.
• Pressure test the supply line for leaks.
• Failure to either disconnect or isolate the appliance during
pressure testing may result in regulator or valve damage.
Consult your dealer in this case.
• The minimum supply pressure is given in the section
Specications of this manual.
• All piping and connections must be tested for leaks after
installation or servicing. All leaks must be corrected
immediately.
• When testing for leaks:
• Make sure that the appliance is turned off.
• Open the manual shut-off valve.
• Test for leaks by applying a liquid detergent or soap
solution to all joints. Bubbles forming indicate a gas
leak.
• Correct any leak detected immediately.
• The pressure test tapping locations are shown in gure above. A built-in non-adjustable regulator controls the
burner manifold pressure. The correct pressure range is shown in the ratings table in section Specications of
this manual. The pressure check should be made with the burner alight and at its highest setting. See Lighting
Instructions section for full operating details.

Safety and Warning
Information
For your safety, this appliance is tted with a ame
supervision device which will shut-off the gas supply
if, for any reason, the pilot ame goes out. This device
incorporates a xed probe, which senses the heat
from the pilot ame. If the probe is cool, the device will
prevent any gas ow unless the burner control knob is
kept pushed in at the PILOT position. See full lighting
instructions on page 21 of this manual.
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically.
During startup, condensation, which is normal, forms
on the inside of the glass and causes dust, lint etc. to
cling to the glass surface. Initially paint, while curing,
may deposit a slight lm on the glass. We therefore
recommend that, during the rst few weeks of use,
the glass be cleaned two or three times with non-
abrasive common household cleaners and warm
water. Ammonia based cleaners should not be used.
Subsequently, the glass should be cleaned two or
three times a season depending on the circumstances.
Do not clean the glass while it is hot. Always securely
replace the window before lighting.

Dust, etc. can be brushed from the ceramic fuel effects
and rebox walls after removing the front unit and
opening the window. Dust etc. can also be removed
from the burner using a soft brush after removing the
ceramic fuel effects.
A periodic check of the pilot and burner ames should
be made. Check after the re has been on for at least
30 minutes. The pilot ame must cover the tip of the
thermocouple probe. The main burner ame pattern
will vary from appliance to appliance depending on the
type of installation and climatic conditions—see images
below.
The appliance area must always be kept clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline and other
ammable vapors and liquids.
Inspect the vent terminal outdoors regularly to make
sure that, snow, leaves, bushes, trees, etc, do not
obstruct it.
Examine the vent system and terminal regularly. We
recommend annually.

Owner’s Information
All appliances use four 1.5 V AA alkaline batteries for
remote control receivers and the handset uses a 9 V
alkaline battery.
Batteries are accessible by removing the lid of the
remote control receiver. Batteries should last one to
two seasons, depending on usage. Removing batteries
in the off season will extend battery life. Should the
batteries loose power, the control may be operated by
manually turning the control knob at the valve.
If your appliance needs to be serviced, contact your
supplier quoting the model number. It will be helpful if
the appliance serial number can also be quoted. This is
on the rating plate, which is attached to the unit.
The repair parts are shown in the repair parts list.
Please always quote the part number and description
when requesting spare parts.
This appliance is equipped with a vent safety switch
which, when activated, will turn off the burner and
pilot if the vent is blocked, disconnected, or if there is
excessive down draught.
If the safety switch is activated, wait for it to cool off
before trying to light the appliance again. The safety
switch will cool off and reset itself automatically after 25
to 30 minutes.
Should the safety switch require replacement, only use
parts supplied by Miles Industries.
