INSTALLATION
FINAL CHECK
Before leaving this unit with the customer, the installer must
ensure that the appliance is firing correctly. This includes:
1) Check operating pressure (see Data Badge for operating
pressure settings)
2) If required, adjusting the primary air to ensure that the
flame does not carbon. First allow the unit to burn for 15
min. to stabilize.
Aeration Settings: F43 LPG full open
F43 NG 7 mm
3) Check for proper draft.
CAUTION
Any alteration to the product that causes sooting or
carboning that results in damage to the exterior facia is not
the responsibility of the manufacturer.
OPTIONAL REMOTE CONTROL
INSTALLATION
Use the Masport Remote Control Kit (Part # 910-358/P)
approved for this unit. Use of other systems may void your
warranty.
The remote control kit comes with a hand held transmitter, a
receiver and a wall mounting plate.
1) Choose a convenient location on the wall to install the
receiver and the receptacle box (protection from extreme
heat is very important). Run wires from the fireplace to
that location. Use Thermostat Wire Table on page 14.
2) Connect the two wires to the gas valve. See diagram
below.
3) Install a 9V alkaline battery in both receiver and the
transmitter. Install the receiver and cover in the wall. The
remote control is now ready for operation.
Note: Preferable if the thermostat is installed on an
interior wall.
Use a CSA, UCL or UL approved millivolt thermostat, 250-750
millivolt rated. A non-anticipator type thermostat must be
used.
