The Real Fyre gas burner system is to be installed only

in a solid-fuel burning ﬁreplace with a working ﬂue and

constructed of noncombustible material. The installation,

including provisions for combustion and ventilation air

must conform with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI

Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the CSA B149.1, Natural Gas

and Propane Installation Code, and applicable local

building codes.

A damper clamp is included to maintain the minimum

permanent vent opening and to prevent full closure

of the damper blade. The chimney damper MUST

be fully opened when burning the unit. The unit is

designed to burn with yellow ﬂames; thus adequate

ventilation is absolutely necessary.

To comply with certification, listings, and building

code acceptances, and for safe operation and proper

performance of this gas burner system, you must use

ONLY Peterson parts and accessories. Use of any other

controls, parts, or accessories not designed for use with

Real Fyre gas burner system is prohibited. This will void

all warranties, certiﬁcations, listings, and building code

approvals, and may cause property damage, personal

injury, or loss of life. Peterson will not be liable for any

damages caused by this misuse.
