(10) To light the heater, see “Lighting Instructions” pages 21 through 28. Make sure you have the right gas valve for Natural or LP gas.
SECTION VI AFTER MARKET MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION NOTE: See “Producing Adequate Ventilation” page 14. .THIS APPLIANCE MAY BE INSTALLED IN AN AFTERMARKET*, PERMANENTLY LOCATED, MANUFACTURED (MOBILE) HOME, WHERE NOT PROHIBITED BY LOCAL CODES. *After Market: Completion of sale, not for the purpose of resale from the manufacturer. THIS APPLIANCE IS ONLY FOR USE WITH THE TYPE OF GAS INDICATED ON THE RATING PLATE. THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT CONVERTIBLE FOR USE WITH OTHER GASES.
PRODUCING ADEQUATE VENTILATION This section is for residential or manufactured (mobile) installation “This heater shall not be installed in a confined space or unusually tight construction unless provisions are adequate combustion and ventilation air.” The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 defines a confined space as a space whose volume is less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour (4.
1. Determine the volume of the space (length x width x height). Length x Width x Height =_________cu.ft.(volume of space) EXAMPLE: 20 ft.(Length) x 16 ft.(Width) x 8 ft.(ceiling Height)= 2560 cu. ft. (volume of space) If additional ventilation to adjoining room is supplied with grills or openings, add the volume of these rooms to the total volume of the space. 2. Divide the space volume by 50 cubic feet to determine the maximum BTU/Hr the space can support. _________(volume of space)/50 cu. ft.
VENTILATION AIR VENTILATION AIR FROM INSIDE BUILDING This fresh air would come from an adjoining unconfined space. When venting to an adjoining space, you must provide two permanent openings: one within 12" of the ceiling and one within 12" of the floor on the wall connecting the two spaces (see Options 1 and 2, Figure 7). You can also remove door into adjoining room (see Option 3, Figure 7). WARNING REWORK WORKSHEET, ADDING THE SPACE OF THE ADJOINING UNCONFINED SPACE.
WARNING THIS APPLIANCE MUST HAVE FRESH AIR FOR PROPER OPERATION. IF NOT, POOR FUEL COMBUSTION COULD RESULT. READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE PROPER FRESH AIR FOR THIS AND OTHER FUELBURNING APPLIANCES IN YOUR HOME. VENTILATION AIR FROM OUTDOORS Provide extra fresh air by using ventilation grills or ducts. You must provide two permanent openings: one within 12" of the ceiling and one within 12" of the floor. Connect these items directly to the outdoors. These spaces include attics and crawl spaces.
WARNING: ANY CHANGE TO THIS HEATER OR ITS CONTROLS CAN BE DANGEROUS GAS CONNECTION Check gas type. Use only the type of gas indicated on the valve rating plate. If the gas type listed on the plate is not your type of gas supply, DO NOT INSTALL. Contact your dealer for proper model. Always use an external regulator for all LP heaters to reduce the supply tank pressure to a maximum of 13" W.C. This is in addition to the regulator furnished with the heater.
GAS PRESSURE CHECK Check the inlet pressure to the burner to ensure that it is as shown in the table below. NOTE: The pressure check point is located on the right side of the valve facing burner, for ITT, and the left side for SIT. The appliance and its appliance main gas valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
PLACEMENT OF LOGS 3 1 2 Figure 9 WARNING:FAILURE TO POSITION THE PARTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE DIAGRAMS OR FAILURE TO USE ONLY PARTS SPECIFICALLY APPROVED WITH HEATER MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FANS TO BLOW DIRECTLY INTO THE FIREPLACE. AVOID DRAFTS THAT ALTER BURNER FLAME PATTERN.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS MILLIVOLT VALVE (ITT) FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ BEFORE LIGHTING WARNING IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR LOSS OF LIFE. A. This appliance has a pilot which must be lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these instructions exactly. B. BEFORE LIGHTING smell around the appliance for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS 1. STOP! Read the safety information on previous page. 2. Make sure the manual shutoff valve is fully closed.If equipped with thermostat set to the lowest setting. 3. Turn off all electrical power to the appliance. 4. Open access panel door located at bottom front of the appliance. 5. Turn control knob clockwise to the full “OFF” position.
• If the pilot will not stay lit after several tries, turn the gas control knob to “OFF” and call your service technician or gas supplier. IGNITOR ELECTRODE PILOT BURNER THERMO-COUPLE THERMO-PILE 12. 13. 14. 15. Turn control knob counterclockwise to the “ON” position. Push the “ON/OFF” toggle switch to the “ON” position. The main burner should light. Close access panel door. Turn on all electrical power to the appliance. Set thermostat to desired setting.
THERMOSTAT CONTROL OPERATION • This valve operates off of millivolts produced by the generator. You may choose to use an optional Wall Thermostat or Remote control. If so, see Figure 2, page 22 for wiring diagram. MANUAL LIGHTING PROCEDURE 1. If the pilot cannot be lit with the piezo, it can be manually lit with the use of a paper match and a lighter rod. 2. Open access panel door located at bottom front of the appliance. 3. 2. Place the match in the holder and light.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS MODULATING VALVE(MAXITROL) FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ BEFORE LIGHTING WARNING IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY, A FIRE OR EXPLOSION MAY RESULT CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. A. This appliance has a pilot which must be lighted by hand. When lighting the pilot, follow these instructions exactly. B. BEFORE LIGHTING: Smell all around the appliance for gas.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. STOP! Read the safety information on the previous page. Make sure manual shutoff valve is fully closed. Open access panel door, located in lower front center of base for access to control knobs. Turn off all electric power to the appliance. Set thermostat (flame control) to lowest setting.

IGNITER ELECTRODE THERMO-COUPLE O.D.S PILOT BURNER PILOT 13. Close the access panel door. 14. “Turn on all electric power to the appliance.” CAUTION DO NOT TRY TO ADJUST HEATING LEVELS BY USING THE MANUAL SHUTOFF VALVE. TO TURN OFF GAS TO APPLIANCE SHUTTING OFF UNIT: Open access panel door, located in lower front center of base for access to control knobs. Set thermostat (flame control) to lowest setting. Turn control knob clockwise to the full “OFF” position.
THERMOSTAT CONTROL OPERATION The thermostat control used on this heater differs from standard thermostats. Standard thermostats simply turn the burner on and off. The thermostat used on this heater senses the room temperature and adjusts the amount of gas flow to the burner. This will increase or decrease the flame height. At times, the room may exceed the set temperature, which will cause the burner to shut off.
FLAME CHECK A periodic check of the flames should be made. The pilot flame should always be present when the unit is in operation. FLAME: Propane (LP) should produce a flame that is 3" to 4" above rear log. This flame should be yellow. Natural gas should produce a flame that is 3" to 4" above rear log. This flame should be mostly blue except for the top 1/2" which should be yellow.
WARNING: CHILDREN AND ADULTS SHOULD BE ALERTED TO THE HAZARDS OF HIGH SURFACE TEMPERATURES AND SHOULD STAY AWAY TO AVOID BURNS OR CLOTHING IGNITION. YOUNG CHILDREN SHOULD BE CAREFULLY SUPERVISED WHEN IN THE SAME ROOM AS GAS LOGS. WARNING: CLOTHING OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIAL SHOULD NOT BE PLACED ON OR NEAR THESE GAS LOGS.
WARNING: ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTION: THIS HEATER IS EQUIPPED WITH A THREE-PRONG PLUG FOR YOUR PROTECTION AGAINST SHOCK HAZARD AND SHOULD BE PLUGGED DIRECTLY INTO A PROPERLY GROUNDED THREE-PRONG RECEPTACLE. NOTE: #PESBRO84 Blower Model FP-327-ZC. Rating: 120 volts/60HZ/0.54 Amps. NOTE: For convenience, allow licensed electrician to install properly grounded 3-plug receptacle near unit.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS Although your gas logs are very realistic in appearance, it is not a real burning fireplace and must not be used for burning rejected material. To avoid irreparable damage to the heater or personal injury, matches, paper, garbage, or any other material must not be placed or thrown on top of the logs or into the flames. To avoid personal injury, do not touch hot surfaces when the heater is operating. Close supervision is necessary when the heater is being operated near children.
