General Information
Model GPF is a decorative gas log set for outdoor use
only. This appliance must not be used for cooking.
IMPORTANT: Read all instructions and warnings
carefully before starting installation. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in a possible fire hazard
and will void the warranty.
WARNING: Improper installation, adjustment, alter-
ation, service or maintenance can cause injury or
property damage. Read the installation, operating and
maintenance instructions thoroughly before installing or

NOTE: All new LP cylinders (and in many cases used
cylinders) may contain water, air or other contaminants.
It is essential that these be removed before filling the
cylinder and placing into service. Water vapor present
in the gas vapor may cause the regulator to “freeze up”
and cause an interruption to the gas flow. This interrup-
tion will cause the unit to shut down. To prevent this
from occurring, it is essential that a qualified individual
ALWAYS purge a new tank thoroughly before placing it
into service. It is recommended that cylinders that have
not been used for extended periods of time also be
purged before use.
The installation must conform with Local Codes or, in
the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1 or CSA-B149.1 Installation Code.

piping system by closing its individual manual shut off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psig (3kPa).
Always keep the appliance area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
•Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of
high surface temperatures and should stay away to
avoid burns or clothing ignition.

before use and at least annually by a qualified service
person. More frequent cleaning may be required as
necessary. It is imperative the control compartment,
burners and circulating air passageways of the appli-
ance be kept clean.
•Inspect the fuel supply connection (including the hose
for LP models) before each use of the appliance.
•If it is evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or
the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the appli-
ance being put into operation.
•The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied
with LP models must be used. Replacement pressure
regulators and hose assemblies must be those speci-
fied in this manual.
•The LP gas supply cylinder used with LP models must
be constructed and marked in accordance with the
specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Depart-
ment of Transportation (DOT) or the specifications in
the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA B330,
Cylinder, Spheres and Tube for Transportation of
Dangerous Goods as applicable.
•Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated
area out of reach of children. Disconnected cylinders
must have threaded valve plugs tightly installed and
must not be stored in a building, garage or any other
enclosed area.

Assembly and Installation
The logs and burner assembly are shipped together.
1. Remove the gas log set and burner assembly and
check for damage. DO NOT install damaged compo-
nents. The logs are fragile - handle with care.
2. Place the burner assembly on a flat, stable surface
in an outdoor location such as a patio or a deck.
This location must be adjacent to the gas supply line
(natural gas) or LP gas supply cylinder. NOTE:
Minimum clearances to combustibles must be
maintained. (Refer to Page 3)
Remember, you must have easy access to the gas
valve control knob AFTER the appliance is installed and
connected to the gas supply.
The ON/OFF Gas Valve is used to turn gas to the
burner on and off.
Natural Gas Models
Connect the incoming gas supply line to the on/off gas
valve of the appliance. (Fig. 3) Make certain ALL gas
connections are tight. Test for leaks. Use a 50/50
solution of liquid soap and water to test for leaks at gas
fittings and joints. Apply water/soap solution with a
brush only - do not over apply. NEVER test with an
open flame.
LP Gas Models
1. Place cylinder base (provided with unit) on a level
surface.
2. Be sure to place cylinder in ring on base.
3. Make sure tank valve is in its full OFF position. (Turn
clockwise to stop.)
4. Check tank valve features to ensure it has proper
external mating threads. (Tank valve marked: USE
WITH TYPE 1)
5. Inspect hose shipped with the unit for damage.
Never attempt to use damaged or plugged equip-
ment. See your local LP Gas Dealer for repairs.
6. After inspecting the LP hose shipped with the unit,
connect the end with the female fitting on the hose
to the male fitting on the on/off gas valve at the end
of the flex tube and make sure it is tight.
7. When connecting regulator assembly to the tank
valve, hand tighten nut clockwise to a positive stop.
DO NOT use a wrench to tighten. Use of a wrench
may damage quick closing coupling nut and result in
a hazardous condition. (Fig. 3)
8. Locate the hose out of pathways where people may
trip over it or in areas where the hose may be
subject to accidental damage.
9. Open tank valve fully (counterclockwise). Turn the
on/off valve at the unit slowly to the on position and
use a 50/50 solution of liquid soap and water to test
for leaks at gas fitting and joints. Apply water/soap
solution with a brush only - do not over apply.
NEVER test with an open flame. If a leak is found,
turn tank valve off and do not use the appliance
until repairs can be made by a local LP Gas Dealer.
DO NOT attempt to make repairs yourself.
10. Never attempt to use this appliance or any compo-
nents that have been damaged or exposed to an
accidental fire.

1. The appliance should be inspected before initial use
and inspected and cleaned at least annually by a
qualified field service person.
2. Tampering is DANGEROUS and voids all warran-
ties. Any component that is found to be faulty, must
be replaced with an approved component.
3. To obtain proper operation, it is imperative that the
burner flame characteristics are steady, not lifting or
floating. Check the burner flame patterns with Figure
19.
Maintenance
LG168
Fig. 19 GPF flame appearance.
4. Periodically remove the logs and examine the
burner. If dirty, clean with a soft brush. Also examine
the area around the burner air shutter. Any dirt or lint
in this area should be removed. This will ensure long
life and trouble free operation. When the appliance
is put back in service, check the burner flame
patterns with Figure 20. Reinstall the logs as shown
in the log placement instructions.
5. Periodically check the hose connecting the LP gas
cylinder to ensure it is not damaged in any way.
NOTE: Carbon (soot) may build up on the surface of
the logs with heavy use. This is more likely to occur
when using LP gas. The soot should be cleaned off the
surface of the logs periodically to prevent excessive
build up. To clean the logs, be sure the fire is out, the
gas supply is turned off and the logs are cool to the
touch. The soot can then be brushed off with a dry
bristle brush or cloth. Take care while cleaning the logs

as they can become damaged if mishandled. Care
should be taken to dispose of the soot and cleaning
materials properly. Keep away from clothing and
outdoor furniture.
High Elevation Installation
This U.L. listed gas appliance is tested and approved
for elevations from 0 to 2,000 feet in the U.S. and form
0 to 4,500 feet in Canada.
When installing this appliance at an elevation above
2,00 feet (in the U.S.), it may be necessary to decrease
the input rating by changing the existing burner orifice
to a smaller size. Input should be reduced four percent
(4%) for each 1,000 feet above sea level, unless the
heating value of the gas has been reduced, in which
case this general rule will not apply. To identify the
proper orifice size, check with the local gas utility.
When installing this unit at an elevation between 2,000
and 4,500 feet (in Canada), the input rating must be
reduced by ten percent (10%).
When installing this unit at an elevation above 4,500
feet (in Canada), check with local authorities.
Consult your local gas utility for assistance in determin-
ing the proper orifice for your location.
