IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE IN-
STALLATION OF THIS GAS LOG SET
The following are guidelines for placing a gas log set
in a replace that has a restrictive barrier along the
bottom front opening of the replace. Some examples
of barriers are glass/screen door frames and sunken/
recessed replaces.
Height of Minimum Depth of
Restriction (x) Fireplace/Firebox
No Restriction 23Z\x”
0 to 3” 15”
Greater than 3” *
*Any barrier greater than 3” placed in front of the gas log
set is not recommended by the manufacturer.
NOTE: Non combustible material such as refractory brick
may be used to line the oor of the replace in order to
raise the height of the gas log set in relation to a restrictive
barrier. If the unit is raised, the minimum height dimension
listed in the homeowner’s manual must not be exceeded.
NOTE: If the log set is equipped with a remote receiver, a
restrictive barrier may reduce the battery life by increasing
the ambient temperature inside the replace. Placement
of the receiver outside of the replace will extend the
battery life.

PLACE AND SECURE APPLIANCE
INSTALLATION
ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
1. Center the gas log unit in the replace or rebox. Make
certain the front feet of the grate sit inside the front edge
of the replace or rebox.
2. Refer to Figure 4 for hole locations. After centering the
grate correctly, mark the hole positions on the replace/
rebox oor. Drill two (2) 5/32" diameter holes approx-
imately 1Z\x" deep.
3. Anchor the grate to the replace/rebox oor using the
screws provided. Figure 4
Proper installation of the grate is essential to prevent any
movement of the gas logs and controls during operation.
WARNING
You must secure the gas log heater to the
replace oor. Properly securing the grate
prevents movement of the entire unit when
you adjust the controls. Grate movement
could cause a gas leak.

GAS LINE CONNECTION
NOTICE: A qualied gas appliance installer must connect
the heater to the gas supply. Consult all local codes.
CAUTION
Use new black iron or steel pipe. Internally
tinned copper or copper tubing can be
used per National Fuel Code, section 2.6.3,
providing gas meets hydrogen sulfide
limits, and where permitted by local codes.
Gas piping system must be sized to provide
minimum inlet pressure (Listed on Data
Plate) at the maximum ow rate (BTU/Hr).
Undue pressure loss will occur if the pipe
is too small.
A manual shutoff valve must be installed
upstream of the appliance. Union tee
and plugged 1/8" NPT pressure tapping
point should be installed upstream of the
appliance. Figure 5

Gas Connection
IMPORTANT: Hold appliance regulator rmly with a wrench
to prevent movement when connecting to inlet piping.
Check gas type: The gas supply must be the same as
stated on the gas logs rating plate. If the gas supply is
different, DO NOT INSTALL THE GAS LOGS. Contact
your dealer for the correct model.
Always use an external regulator for all propane/LPG gas
logs only, to reduce the supply tank pressure to a maximum
of 13" w.c. This is in addition to the regulator tted to the
gas log set. High pressure natural gas systems require a
regulator to reduce supply pressure to 10" w.c.
WARNING
Connecting directly to an unregulated
propane/LPG tank can cause an explosion

8Hearth & Home Technologies • VDY 24/18/30 Gas Log Heater Install/Owner's Manual • 32D1999 • Rev D • 05/19
GAS LINE CONNECTION
The heater gas inlet connection is 3/8" NPT at the reg-
ulator, inlet on the right side facing the gas log. If a left
side connection is required, the connecting pipe may be
led under the rear of the gas logs or behind the grate for
connection to the inlet.
NOTE: The millivolt valve has an internal regulator, thus
the incoming gas line connects directly to the valve.
Test all gas joints from the gas meter to the appliance
regulator for leaks using a gas analyzer or soap and water
solution after completing connection. DO NOT USE AN
OPEN FLAME.
Check the gas pressure with the appliance burning.
MANUAL CONTROL
Figure 6
The pressure regulator is preset and locked to discourage
tampering. If the pressure is not as specied, replace with
the correct part from the parts list in this manual.
