system must be a minimum height of 12’ (3.7 m)  
NOTE: (Fig. 1)  
* When you install your fireplace in (D) Room divider or (E)  
Flat on wall corner positions, a minimum of 6” (X) (153mm)  
clearance must be maintained from the perpendicular wall  
and the outer edge of the trim.  
The use of wallpaper adjacent to this fire-  
place is not recommended as high tem-  
peratures given off by this fireplace may  
adversely effect the binders in the adhe-  
sive used to apply the wallpaper.  
Mantels  
When the unit is installed into a woodburning fireplace,  
the minimum distance the mantel can be placed above  
the fireplace is governed by local building codes appli-  
cable to woodburning fireplaces. Consult local authori-  
ties having jurisdiction for these clearances.  
37" (946mm)  
For applications requiring the use of a Zero Clearance  
Kit, the minimum height a mantel can be installed above  
the fireplace is 24" (610 mm) from the top of the upper  
louvres. The maximum mantel depth is 8" (203 mm).

Gas Fireplace Insert  
Combustion Air  
High Elevations  
It is very important that an adequate air supply is  
available when the unit is being operated. Since most  
homes of today are tightly sealed and insulated, addi-  
tional make-up air is usually necessary.  
Input ratings are shown in BTU per hour and are  
certified without deration for elevations up to  
4,500 feet (1,370m) above sea level.  
For elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m) in USA,  
installations must be in accordance with the  
current ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or local codes  
having jurisdiction.  
This fireplace has been designed to operate by drawing  
air in from the front and outer perimeters of the fire-  
place. The air provides combustion air ensuring a clean  
burning flame, dilution air for proper venting, as well  
as the air which the fan circulates over the firebox/heat  
exchanger system.  
In Canada, please consult provincial and/or local  
authorities having jurisdiction for installations at  
elevations above 4,500 feet (1,370m).  
NOTE: Insulating around the fireplace will result in  
overheating and possible malfunctioning of the circulat-  
ing fan.  
These gas inserts are approved for installation  
in solid fuel burning masonry or zero clearance  
fireplaces.  
Zero Clearance Applications  
An alternate air supply is recommended  
with this component.  
Preparation  
Before beginning, remove glass door and logs from  
unit. Also check to make sure there is no hidden dam-  
age to the unit. Take a minute and plan out the gas,  
venting and electrical route. It is best to start with the  
gas line first followed by the chimney liner. (Refer to  
Page 8)  
For installation other than in existing woodburning fire-  
places such as new construction or renovation projects,  
a Zero Clearance Kit must be used. The kit enables  
these inserts to be installed in combustible environ-  
ments. Whenever using a Zero Clearance Kit, consid-  
eration must be given to the dimensions of the Zero  
Clearance Kit and the requirements of the Air Kit when  
planning out the installation.  
Gas Line Installation  
When purging the gas line, the front glass  
must be removed.

Venting Instructions  
Canadian Installations:  
The venting system must be installed in accordance  
with the current CSA-B149.1 installation code, and the  
authority having jurisdiction.  
1. Gas inserts are designed for recessed  
installations into solid fuel masonry or factory built  
noncombustible fireplaces that have been installed  
in accordance with the National, Provincial, State  
and local building codes.  
U.S.A. Installations:  
The venting system must be installed in accordance  
with the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/  
NFPA 54.  
2. Measure for minimum fireplace opening requirement  
on Page 4 of this installation manual. (If firebrick  
[refractory] is removed from a factory built  
fireplace in order to gain minimum gas fireplace  
insert opening requirements, a minimum of 1/4"  
(6 mm) air space is required between the gas  
insert fireplace's outer casing and the inner wall  
of the factory built fireplace).  
Minimum clearances to combustible materials is 1" (25  
mm) for B Vent (use of single wall vent is not al-  
lowed).  
As with any natural draft appliances, the vent cap must  
always extend a minimum of 2' (610 mm) above any  
structure within a 10' (3 m) horizontal plane. (Fig. 9)  
A minimum 12’ (3.7 m) vent height is re-  
quired to effectively vent this fireplace.  
3. To assure top performance, safety and efficiency,  
all inserts must be installed with an approved 4"  
diameter flue liner, with exception of A125, which  
should be installed with an approved 3" liner,as per

Gas Fireplace Insert  
Test Chimney Draw  
Common Flue Installations  
A "Chimney Draw" test must be made before the  
installation is complete.  
In some areas it is possible to vent more than one gas  
fireplace into the same flue. You must ensure the flue  
being shared has the proper capacity to handle both  
fireplaces. Check installation codes for venting capacity  
information.  
1. Close all doors and windows in the home and start  
exhaust fans in the kitchen and bathroom.  
2. Light unit and operate for 5 minutes.  
As always it is best to check with the authority having  
jurisdiction prior to commencement of the installation.  
3. Hold an ignited match or cigarette in front of the unit.  
Refer to Figure 11 for the location of the draft hood  
opening.  
Liner Installation  
4. Check to make sure smoke from the match or  
cigarette is drawn into the fireplace. If it is not, turn  
the unit off and check for causes creating the lack of  
adequate draft.  
Insert liner from top of chimney through the damper  
opening and attach to 3" flue collar (for A125); 4" flue  
collar (for A132). For best results use three (3) sheet  
metal screws and a hose clamp.  
Test for Draft at This Location  
For natural draft inserts, packing fibreglass insulation  
around the liner in the damper area will isolate the fire-  
place cavity from the chimney and prevent drafts and  
noises during operation.  
In case the fireplace opening is only minimum height  
(17¹⁄₂" for A125) (20" for A132) and access from the  
front is not possible, remove the flue collar plate - un-  
screw and slide out from the back of the unit. Now  
attach the liner to the flue collar, lift up and simply slide  
flue collar plate back onto the unit top. It is important  
the plate is completely inserted and the front screw is  
fastened again in order to line up the flue outlet and the  
liner properly. (Fig. 10)  
FP1371  
Fig. 11 Hold an ignited match in front of fireplace.  
Vent Safety System  
If fireplace lintel is wider than 8" (203 mm),  
the height of the fireplace opening must  
be 25" (635 mm) to allow for a 90° offset  
elbow to be installed.  
These inserts are equipped with a vent safety shut  
down switch. This switch is factory installed, wired and  
tested. Check and make sure the switch and wires are  
in the proper position. The safety switch is heat activat-  
ed and wired in series with the pilot system. (Fig. 12)

Glass Cleaning  
It will be necessary to clean the glass periodically.  
During start-up, condensation, which is normal, forms  
on the inside of the glass and causes lint, dust and  
other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.  
Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on  
the glass. It is therefore recommended the glass  
be cleaned two or three times with a non-ammonia  
household cleaner and warm water (we recommend  
gas fireplace glass cleaner). After that the glass should  
be cleaned two or three times during each heating  
season depending on the circumstances present.  
6. A125: Place front left log (N13) onto locator. Ensure  
the log is securely in place.  
A132: Place front left log (N19) against the back of  
the left burner heat shield and the front edges of the  
log should be flat against the front deflector.  
7. Place ember material on to the front area of the  
burner.  
Top logs must be placed properly into  
notches.  
Clean glass after first two weeks of  
operation.

First Firing  
Flame Characteristics  
Upon completing the gas line connection, a small  
amount of air will be in the lines. When first lighting unit  
with pilot light, it will take a few minutes to purge them-  
selves of this air. Once the purging is complete, the  
pilot and burner will light and operate as indicated in the  
instruction manual. Subsequent lightings of the heater  
will not require such purging.  
It is important to periodically perform a visual check of  
the pilot and the burner flames. Compare them to the  
Figure 21 and Figure 22 or 23. If any of the flames ap-  
pear abnormal call a service person.  
PSE Pilot  
3/8" - 1/2"  
When lit for the first time, the appliance will emit a slight  
odor for awhile. This is due to paint and lubricants used  
in the manufacturing process. After each lighting, vapor  
may condense and fog the glass; this moisture disap-  
pears within a few minutes of burning.

NOTE: Before trouble shooting the gas control system, be sure external gas shut off is in the “On” position.  
WARNING: Before doing any gas control service work, remove glass front.  
SYMPTOM  
POSSIBLE CAUSES  
CORRECTIVE ACTION  
1.Spark ignitor will not light  
A. Defective or misaligned  
electrode at pilot.  
Using a match, light pilot. If pilot lights, turn off  
pilot and push the red button again. If pilot will not  
light - check gap at electrode and pilot-should be  
1/8" to have a strong spark.  
B. Defective ignitor (Push Button)  
Push Piezo Ignitor Button. Check for spark at  
electrode and pilot. If no spark to pilot, and elec  
trode wire is properly connected, replace ignitor.  
2. Pilot will not stay lit after  
carefully following lighting  
instructions.  
A. Defective pilot generator  
(thermocouple), remote wall  
switch.  
Check pilot flame. Must impinge on thermo  
couple/thermopile. Note: this pilot burner assem  
bly utilizes both-a thermocouple and a thermopile.  
The thermocouple operates the main valve  
operation (On and Off). Clean and or adjust pilot for  
maximum flame impingement on thermopile and  
thermocouple.  
B. Defective automatic valve  
Turn valve knob to “Pilot”. Maintain flow to pilot;  
milivolt meter should read greater than 10 mV. If  
the reading is okay and the pilot does not stay on,  
replace the gas valve. Note: An interrupter block  
(not supplied) must be used to conduct this test.  
3. Pilot burning, no gas to  
main burner  
A. Wall switch or wires defective  
Check wall switch and wires for proper connec  
tions. Jumper wire accross terminals at wall  
switch, if burner comes on, replace defective wall  
switch. If okay, jumper wires across wall switch  
wires at valve, if burner comes on, wires are faulty  
or connections are bad.  
B. Thermopile may not be  
generating sufficient  
millivoltage.  
1. Be sure wire connections from thermopile at  
gas valve terminals are tight and thermopile is  
fully inserted into pilot bracket.  
2. One of the wall switch wires may be grounded.  
Remove wall switch wires from valve terminals if  
pilot now stays lit, trace wall switch wiring for  
ground. May be grounded to fireplace or gas  
supply.  
3. Check thermopile with millivolt meter. Take  
reading at thermopile terminals of gas valve.  
Should read 250-300 millivolts (minimum 150)  
while holding valve knob depressed in pilot  
position and wall switch “Off”. Replace faulty  
thermopile if reading is below specified minimum.  
C. Plugged burner orifice.  
Check burner orifices for debris and remove.  
D. Defective automatic valve  
operator.  
Turn valve knob to “On”, place wall switch to “On”  
millivolt meter should read greater than 100 mV. If  
the reading is okay and the burner does not come  
on, replace the gas valve.  
4. Frequent pilot outage  
problem.  
A. Pilot flame may be too low  
or blowing (high) causing the  
pilot safety to drop out.  
Clean and/or adjust pilot flame for maximum flame  
impingement on thermopile and thermocouple.  
B. Possible blockage of the vent  
terminal.  
Check the vent terminal for blockage (recycling the  
flue gases)

Maintenance  
Burner and Burner Compartment  
It is important to keep the burner and the burner  
compartment clean. At least once per year the logs and  
lava rock/ember material should be removed and the  
burner compartment vacuumed and wiped out. Remove  
and replace the logs as per the instructions in this  
manual.  
In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly,  
turn off the gas to the unit, remove the window frame  
panel and logs exposing the burner and pilot assembly.  
Clean all foreign materials from the top of the burner.  
Check to make sure that burner parts are clean. Visu-  
ally inspect pilot. Brush or blow away any dust or lint ac-  
cumulation. If pilot orifice is plugged, disassembly may  
be required to remove any foreign material from the  
orifice or tubing.  
Always handle the logs with care as they are fragile  
and may also be hot if the fireplace has been in  
use.  
To obtain proper operation, it is imperative the pilot and  
burner's flame characteristics are steady, not lifting or  
floating.  
Fan Assembly  
The fan unit requires periodic cleaning. At least once  
per month in the operating season, open the lower  
louvre panels and wipe or vacuum the area around the  
Typically, the top 1/8" of the thermopile should be en-  
gulfed in the pilot flame. (Page 13, Fig. 25)  
fan to remove any build up of dust or lint.  
Brass Cleaning  
Cleaning the Standing Pilot  
Control System  
Clean the brass trim with a soft clean cloth, slightly  
dampened with lemon oil and buff with a soft dry cloth.  
Do not use brass polish or household cleaners as these  
products will damage the trim. Lemon oil can be ob-  
tained at supermarkets or hardware stores.  
The burner and control system consists of:  
• main burner  
• gas orifice  
• pilot burner  
• thermopile  
• combination millivolt gas valve  
Most of these components may require only an occa-  
sional checkup and cleaning and some may require ad-  
justment. If repair is necessary, it should be performed  
by a qualified technician.

Clearance Kit and the requirements of the Air Kit when  
planning out the installation.
