INSTALLATION Continued The charts in Figure 2 indicate technical information regarding the installation of your gas log set. Please make sure that all of the specifications shown are applicable before installation is attempted. The fireplace must include a working flue and venting system with the minimum openings shown in the Figure 2. LOG SIZE 24" MINIMUM FIREBOX SIZE FRONT BACK MINIMUM WIDTH WIDTH* DEPTH HEIGHT FLUE SIZE 8" dia. 35 3/4" 17" 15 1/2" 18" CHECK GAS TYPE Use only natural gas.
INSTALLATION Continued We recommend that you install a sediment trap in the supply line as shown in Figure 4. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and heater. Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into log set controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, log set may not run properly.
INSTALLATION Continued 5. Retighten and adjust the location of the gas control as necessary. The gas control should be level, with the control knob to the front. Be sure to use the correct orifice for your appliance. The orifice kit included with this appliance contains an orifice installed in an air mixer fitting. 4. Using thread sealant (resistant to the action of propane/LP gas) on smaller end of fitting, screw the burner inlet fitting into outlet side of gas control. Tighten using a wrench. 5 .
INSTALLATION Continued 5. Turn pressure selecting screw over and reinstall it in regulator cap (see Figure 10-11).This will set the pressure selecting screw to the LP/Propane gas ition. Makethe pressure selecting screw is installed tightly to the regulator cap. 6. Replace the regulator cap on the appliance regulator.
