Preparing for Installation
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
NOTICE: Installation, service, and repair of this appliance must be performed by a qualied installer, service
agency, company, or gas supplier experienced with this type of gas appliance. Only factory-authorized parts
may be used in accordance with the manufacturers instructions, and all codes and requirements of the au-
thority having jurisdiction must be followed. Use of unauthorized parts or accessory items, or any alterations
to the kit, will void the manufacturers warranty. Using unauthorized parts or performing alterations may
also result in unsafe operating conditions.
Installation
CHECK GAS TYPE
Use only natural gas. If your gas supply is not natural gas, the On/O Safety Pilot Valve Kit (see ACCESSORIES,
page 16) must be installed. A gas supply shuto valve must be installed if the replace does not have one.
VENTING SPECIFICATIONS FOR INSTALLATION
Ensure the replace chimney ue and vent are drafting properly by doing the following:
1. Ignite a rolled newspaper or other paper on one end and place it at the inside front edge of the replace.
2. Watch the smoke and check that the vent is drawing it up the chimney.
3. If the smoke is not drawn up the chimney, extinguish the ame and remove obstructions in the chimney
until it vents properly.
The chimney ue must remain open a minimum of 3" at all times during the operation of this appliance.
Chimney dampers must be xed so that they maintain the minimum permanent vent opening at all times.
Installing a damper clamp to prevent the damper from accidentally closing is recommended (see page 8).
The minimum permanent opening (in square inches) is what must be provided by either the replace chim-
ney or chimney damper to vent the ue gases. The minimum vent opening for dierent chimney heights can
be found on page 6 (Per 1.15.7.; ANSI 1.14.1B).
If the area in which the appliance will be operated does not meet the required volume
for indoor combustion air, combustion and ventilation air must be provided by one
of the methods described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the International Fuel Gas
Code, or applicable local codes.
WARNING
This appliance requires a reliable source of fresh air for adequate combustion and
ventilation. This is essential for the appliance to operate properly and for your own safety.
WARNING
Before installing this appliance in a solid-fuel burning replace, a qualied chimney
cleaner must clean the chimney ue and rebox of ashes, loose paint, soot, and creosote.
Creosote ignites if heated to a high temperature. A dirty chimney ue may distribute soot
within the house. Make sure that the qualied chimney cleaner inspects the chimney ue for damage.
WARNING

CAUTION
Failure to keep the primary air opening(s) of the burner(s) clean may result in sooting
and property damage.
WARNING
This appliance requires curing the rst time it is operated. Complete the following
instructions for curing to avoid cracking the logs with continued use.
CAUTION
When the appliance is rst operated, it goes through a 3-hour curing period. During this time, the appliance
may emit an odor. This odor is temporary and indicates that the various compounds and paints used in the
appliance are curing. This is normal and expected. However, you may wish to provide the room with extra
ventilation during this period to help combat the odor.
Perform the following to properly cure the logs:
1. Ignite a 2" ame. Maintain the ame for one (1) hour.
2. Let the logs cool down for 30 minutes.
3. Ignite the appliance again but with the ame 2" higher than the last time. Maintain the ame for one (1) hour.
4. Repeat steps 2–3 until the ame reaches its maximum height, burning for a total of three (3) hours.
Do not burn solid fuels in the replace when the appliance is operating.

BURNER FLAME PATTERN
Figure 18 shows a correct burner ame pattern, and Figure 19 shows an incorrect burner ame pattern. The
incorrect burner ame pattern results in irregular burning ames. A correctly burning ame will not be dark
or have an orange/reddish hue.
Note: When using the appliance the rst time, the ame will be orange for about one hour until the log cures.
Do the following if the burner ame is incorrect:
1. Turn o the appliance (see TO TURN OFF GAS TO THE APPLIANCE, page 13).
2. See the TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE, page 17.

BURNER ORIFICE HOLDER AND PILOT AIR INLET HOLE
The primary air inlet holes provide the proper amount of air for mixing with the gas, which creates a clean
burning ame. These holes must be kept free of lint, dust, dirt, pet hair, and other debris. Before each heat-
ing season, clean these holes—blocked air holes create soot. The appliance should be cleaned approximate-
ly every three months during operation and inspected yearly by a qualied service person.
During operation, keep the vicinity of the appliance clear of debris, which may create a hazard.
Keep the burner tube and pilot assembly clean and free of dust, dirt, lint, and other debris. Use compressed
air of 30 PSI or less to clean these parts. Follow all the directions on the packaging/can when using com-
pressed air. Improperly using compressed air may damage the pilot assembly.

Care and Maintenance (cont.)
Note: Only a qualied service person should clean the venting system and the solid fuel-burning replace.
At the beginning of each season, check the system as follows:
1. Check the chimney ue/vent pipe to ensure that the ue is drawing properly. This also checks if the vent
pipe connections are tight.
2. Check that the chimney/vent termination has no blockages.
3. Check the chimney and/or vents for creosote and soot build-up. Clean if necessary.
4. If applicable, inspect the burners and pilot.
The burner system has been previously adjusted for proper operation at the factory. No adjustment is nec-
essary, other than altitude de-rating or pilot ame. De-rating for altitude should be performed by a qualied
service person.
SOOTING AND CLEANING LOGS
Some sooting of the appliance is normal, which adds to the appearance of real burned wood. If excessive
sooting occurs and accumulates, the logs can be cleaned using either of the following options:
A. Spray the logs with clean water while they are hot and burning. The soot will burn and lift o.
B. Brush the soot o with a sti brush while the logs are cool. While using a brush, do not use water or soot cleaners.
ACCESSORIES
Purchase these replace accessories from your local dealer. If they cannot supply these accessories, contact
the Pinnacle Climate Technologies customer service department at (866) 676-1636. for more information.
NOTE: Moisture may cause the granules and Glowing Embers in your burner pan to settle. To return the
ame to its original condition and improve the burn, follow these tips:
A. Settling of Vermiculite: With a screwdriver or at-blade knife, carefully stir the granules to loosen the
material. Clean any spills.
B. Embers: Break up any clumps. Inspect the control and pilot to be sure they are clear of dirt, lint, or other debris.
Safety Pilot/LP Conversion Kit (REM-LPK100A)
Required for propane/LP installation.
Vermiculite (REM-VER100A)
Helps spread gas evenly throughout
the burner pan, creating a fuller ame
pattern. Also doubles as an ash bed.
Lava Rock (REM-LAV100A)
Adds to the appliance’s realism by creat-
ing a realistic-looking rock bed for vented
or vent-free gas logs. Can be used as a
replacement or for rst-time use.
Glowing Ember Fibers (REM-GLW100A)
Imitates a glowing bed of ashes found in
a wood-burning re, which adds to the
realism of the appliance.
